Review of Pinzon Chamonix Medium Warmth White Goose Down Comforter

I was so excited to receive this comforter based on all the great reviews.However, I was disappointed. It arrived with the package soiled. The "5 inch vertical cabana stripe" is barely visible. The worse part for me is the cotton shell.While very soft, is also very thin and practically translucent.I could see the down inside and also the black or grey pieces of feather/down all throughout the comforter.They looked like little grey spot stains all over the comforter.

Some pros:

* It is very long.
* I didn't see down flying everywhere when I took it out of the bag.
* Nice and fluffy.There is alot of down in there.Too bad there's abunch of grey pieces, too.



Product Description
Enjoy a great night's sleep with a Pinzon luxury comforter just right for your needs. This Chamonix Medium Warmth Goose Down comforter, with 40 total ounces of goose down, offers a medium level of warmth for year-round comfort. Boasting a fill power of 650, the comforter offers a premium down value. Fill power indicates how many cubic inches of space an ounce of down will occupy, and anything at the 600 level is considered in the industry to be excellent. The higher the fill power, the larger and stronger the clusters of down. Large clusters provide superior insulation, breathe better, and last much longer than smaller, fragile down clusters used in many lower quality comforters.

Full/Queen Comforter Buying Guide The Chamonix comforter is made with a 6-inch perimeter border framing a centered, 16-inch-baffle-box design. Unlike comforters with regular baffle box construction, which can experience a shifting of the down fill, Pinzon's Chamonix comforter utilizes the patented PermaBaffle shiftless construction. It's the only patented method to construct baffle box comforters that will not permit filling to shift, even after washing. To protect the filling in the frame around the baffle boxes, the comforter has mitered corners. The end result is that you can enjoy the aesthetics of a framed comforter without compromising the utility offered by PermaBaffle.

While the Chamonix comforter is cherished for its utility, it's admired for its good looks. The shell features an attractive 5-inch vertical cabana stripe pattern with bold color. Boasting a 440 thread count in a Dobby weave, the shell is made from Tencel Cotton, renowned for its softness, durability, moisture absorption, and wrinkle-resistance. Safe to clean at home in the washer and dryer, Pinzon's Chamonix goose down comforter may also safely be dry cleaned. The full/queen-sized Chamonix comforter measures 90 by 96 inches, and it's also available in twin, king, and oversized king sizes.

Fabric Definition

Tencel Cotton: Far stronger than cotton alone, Tencel is durable, comfortable, wrinkle-resistant, machine washable, has little elasticity, and is very soft. In addition, it has good moisture absorption, and good static- and heat-resistance. Tencel Cotton fabric is a blend of the cotton fiber with the trademarked, man-made Tencel fiber, uniting the good qualities of each. Like rayon, Tencel is made from cellulose derived naturally from dissolved wood pulp. Unlike rayon, Tencel is processed without producing large amounts of sulfurous waste, sometimes leading it to be labeled "low impact" and "environmentally friendly." Tencel producers use a closed-loop chemical process in which its solvent can be filtered and reused. Tencel fibers can be used alone or blended with cotton, flax, polyester, wool, and spandex. Tencel fibers can be knitted or woven into a wide range of fabrics, including crepes, chambrays, poplins, and twills. Tencel fibers produce "fibrillation," the forming of tiny hairs, which can give some Tencel fabrics a soft, peach-fuzz texture.
