I have been researching for days about bedding and feel like I'm running in circles. I bought a new mattress (high quality) and need new bedding to do with it. My current sheets are the Kirkland brand from Costco. While I do like them, they started to tear here and there. I went a little over budget for my mattress but see it as an investment.

I ordered Brooklinen Percale sheets and duvet cover. I know what people on this sub say about them but Quince is out-of-stock on a lot of their sheets. LL Bean only has bright colors or white. I have a budget of only around $300 for the set so the primo stuff is off the table. I figured I'd give Brooklinen a try and just return them if they are as bad as some say.

I have a beat up down comforter at the moment but saw this sale as I was looking around for sheets. Either the Hotel Collection brand is grossly over priced or Macy's is moving all inventory (maybe both?)

My budget for a goose down comforter was going to be around $200 in the next few months as I hunt for sales. This comforter seems too good to be true...

Thoughts?

Edit: For context I live in Texas so breathability, fluff, and durability are my main priorities. I plan on buying a king comforter for my queen duvet cover to make it a little more fluffy. In the summer I take the comforter out and just use the cover and a flat sheet.
