I don't have a comforter from there but check Bed Bath & Beyond. Just this evening my cousin was talking about wanting to look for a feather bed and I told her that I thought BB&B had them. We looked online and sure enough they did have them, as well as more of a variety of down alternative ones, so I'll bet they would have the comforters also.

I just got a sale catalog from Company Store. I love their quality, but have only bought down from them. Don't know where you got your down previously, but have never had any feathers poking thru a Company store comforter. They have what looks like a nice selection of quality down alternatives, some on sale.

Another frequent buyer of Company Store comforters - and we've never had a problem with the down. We did finally switch to alternative down from them because my DH developed an allergy to the down.

I purchased two from Overstock in a lightweight filled comforter. They are not as heavy and thick as regular ones, thus they lie beautifully and aren't heavy on the body. We live in Ma. and the temps can get low, last night was 14. We keep our bedroom a cool 63 and this comforter plus one cuddly blanket work like a charm.

Elder Beerman is (or was last week) having terrific sales on their comforters. My aunt ordered five of the microfiber reversible comforters, any size, for $21.28 each! originally starting at $100 for a twin. Depends upon how you feel about microfiber,tho. I use the thinner ones during Spring/Fall and they are very warm with only a top sheet under.

I haven't checked EB's site today, so can't say if the sale is still on.

Here's a link:

You might try overstock.com and search for oversize in their comforter section, then always check to see the measurements so you'll know if the overhang will cover the mattress.

Your experience with feathers being prickly is something I've never had with our *down* comforters, so I suspect your comforter brand may be the culprit. I was given a couple of feather throw pillows that look pretty, but they are actually miserable to use because of sharp feathers poking you. Real down pillows and comforters don't do that.

If you have an Ikea near you, take a look at their down alternative comforters. They have them in different warmth levels. I bought one 2 years ago and we think it's the best comforter we've ever owned.

And their covers are a great deal.

If you have feathers poking you, you don't have down....you have feathers...maybe feathers and down....but a good down comforter has no feathers....it's just fluff.
Try a better one.

We have a white down-alternative comforter with a white damask duvet cover ... both from The Company Store. Last night it was really put to the test since we didn't have heat and the outside temp dropped to 28 degrees. We stayed nice and warm with the flannel sheets and comforter.

I recently bought a comforter at Costco that is filled with wool - Australian, I think. We love it! Our queen was $60, so the king would be a bit more than that.
