The
cold weather has hit us in Boston, so my husband and I
reluctantly pulled off our lighter Southern weight Ming
Dynasty summer silk-filled bed comforter and hauled out
our Monarch
Hypodown oversized king. The first thing I immediately
noticed, was I felt really toasty warm and the oversize
is great for people who have a partner who pulls all the
covers off them and wrap covers around themselves, otherwise
known as "bed hogs". The oversize bed comforter is so huge
not even the hogs can use it all. The downside of the
oversize, is you end up needing a custom-made duvet cover,
which is to my mind an unnecessary expense for most people.
The other thing I noticed, was that the 800 fill power
is surprisingly warmer compared to my winter weight top-
of- the line famous brand goose down comforter, which
I have on my guest room bed. Even though I wouldn't mind
indulging in a Siberian
down or Eiderdown
comforter, I have to admit the Hypodown is pretty
darn good. Incidentally, the Empress
is the best selling Hypodown comforter right now.

I also want to mention that our Imperial
Delight silk-filled comforter, available in a winter
weight, is being upgraded to a 5 star rating. Our supplier
made some fussy little changes, at our request, and
is now making a really superb, top notch comforter.
I like it so much that I will be buying one for my father
for Christmas.
