Love this comforter. It is so soft, inside and out, probably the softest bedding I have ever owned. Warm rating about a medium, keeps me warm but not on very cold nights when it drops down to the low 30's & 20's. The style is gorgeous, the pintucks with the velvet look really stands out. I got the silver, it is a soft dove grey color with a little shimmer to it. Haven't washed it yet so don't know how that will do. I have cats and a dog so I have a throw I put on it before the animals get on it to go to bed. I have noticed some pulled thread already from the animals though, so I would classify this as somewhat delicate, be careful if you have pets. Size wise I can't say, I usually get a king size for a queen bed because I like longer bedding and that is what I did here.
