Yeah I heard nice things about the quality and materials, but the customer service reviews were egregious and frequent enough that I got spooked off ordering from them. Life is too short to deal with a company that doesn’t value your business (or keeping return business! a bad sign). More on reddit.com

Nuppers. It's the retail shell game again. Saying European down is the same as saying none of your damn beeswax — we aren't telling. And they also aren't telling you the down to feathers ratio, which probably means 75/25. The size is a few inches small (queen- 88") The warmth levels are off; I happen to know that 42oz of 700 fill power in a queen is a three season (all except summer, TOG 9), and they're saying 24oz in their Level 1 gives you that. I think you'd shiver your ass of in a 60º room. So basically they're selling you half the down, and half the quality, at twice the price. To say it's overpriced is an understatement. To match up fill power and amount it's 2X with the poor quality down and probably the casing still not accounted for. Sorry, I know that's not what you were hoping to hear. Edit: Brooklinen comments. Notice that Brooklinen is careful to not place the word "goose" in front of down. I wonder why? They also don't know what the term "fill power" means. They use it to describe warmth levels in their three options, but it's actually a term that quantifies loft or volume of a specific amount of down by weight. So the combination of fill power and amount give a certain warmth (TOG) No indication of any other specs, so assume 75/25 ratio of duck down. Hutterite is a religious group that collects/sell down, but that doesn't tell you anything about what you're buying. **BUT** I'd come a whole lot closer to paying $284 for a duck down comforter than I would $900 for Cuddledown mystery fill. But, if you're okay with cheap mystery fill, why not just go to Target and get yourself a nice Chinese duck down comforter for $50 or less. More on reddit.com

Buy linen, it's the closest to BIFL bed sheets and duvet covers get. They can be pricey but linen lasts for a long time and gets nicer each and every wash.

Linoto is a great brand made in upstate NY (though their customer service has been hard to get in touch with), my linoto sheets are holding up really well. Magic linen is another awesome brand made in Eastern Europe.

As for a duvet insert, I have a wool comforter I love, but haven't had it long enough to say it's BIFL or not
