What's the difference between Medium Warmth White Down ($129.00) and Medium Warmth White Goose Down ($189.00) ?
84976
The white down ($129) is DUCK down. From what I've read and been told goose down is superior to duck down. The medium warmth white goose down has a slightly higher fill power than the medium warmth white (duck) down. Higher fill power will give you more loft and warmth. I purchased the medium warmth white goose down king size a few months ago and am very happy with it!

The first option is duck down, the second is goose. I did a bit of research when shopping for a comforter and found that goose is better than duck (more efficient, more durable, less likely to leak, etc.) I think goose also offers a bigger poof; as I understood it, the comforter works better when air is allowed to move around between the feathers which can take a few days given the way these are shipped. We've had our king size goose down model for a few months now and it is great!

It is not marked on the packaging, I never saw it in reviews. I have "drop foot" from a spinal injury. This the lightest weight cover of any type I have found, allowing me to sleep without pain. It's minus 30 F. as I write the windows are frozen shut with ice on the insides. I covered them with plastic and it freezes to the double layers of curtains. I have to throw these back and cool my body temp at times, toasty indeed. I was looking for quality within my price range. I found what I needed, within the parameters of my budget. If your budget allows for better quality, go for it. The reviews I read helped me choose this and I'm another satisfied customer. (If Amazon is showing the same product I bought. The white down comforter they show says King sized down. The requests I get for reviews are most frequently similar to, but not the product I purchased.) Use your search engine to find reviews outside of Amazon, would be my suggestion. Some of the companies selling their wares pay folks for positive reviews. If you stick with Amazon reviews, always read further than the first page shown. Good Luck.

A down comforter is full of feathers. Depending on the type of feather is going to make a difference in quality. As far as I am aware Siberian goose down is the best, and the reason is the quills (i guess thats what they are called) are soft so you don't experience that feather poking problem. Some people have allergies to feathers, or in general just don't want to deal with it, so they buy alternative comforters. They can be made of different materials, but in my experience, they are always firmer, and usually denser. Some people like that. Also, fill count is going to make a difference. If spending over $100 is a big deal to you like it was to me, I would recommend doing a little research on the specifications of the comforters, and then going to a store and feeling them for what you like. The best deals I have found are on amazon, but you may not want to go into the purchase with a "blind-feel".

Near as I can tell, the only difference is price. When I bought mine, the price I paid was $60 and change-- a lot for a camping blanket I thought then, but ... great quality. Came with very strong moth-ball smell. Aired it out. Smell has abated. Heavier weight than I anticipated and that was a good thing. Went back to buy another and found price increase. Couldn't bring myself to lay out extra $30+ for camping blanket. Certainly would not pay near $120 for a camp blanket, that's for sure-- but that's me. $120 too expensive to risk in woods-- for me. For a household or cabin blanket at those prices, worth every bit of $90-$120, but too expensive now for carrying into woods IMHO. Hope this helps. Near as I can tell, the only difference is price.

Yes, the super soft white goose down can be used as a comforter. It looks very expensive and very fluffy. I love the way it looks.

Can't answer that for sure, but regarding sales, the black one is probably cheaper. The white one is not common, the black one sells better.You should check out other places to see what's the price difference.

No, it does not, but I have owned umpteen down comforters, having lived in numerous mountain areas as well as tropical places....This particular comforter is the BEST of the lot...I use it in all seasons, and I feel that is definitely goose down!!!!

If the sizes are the same but the prices are different I would purchase the lower priced one. I wish I had a better answer. That's what I would do. It an amazing comforter. You will really like it.

The down does in fact keeps me warm in my boat. It is doing it's job for the month of November 23, 2014 to keep me warm. The problem that I have is that it bleeds feathers like it has a hole in it. If the synthetic could keep me as warm I would get the synthetic. I had experience with the synthetic in the past, but I also had used blanket.

I can't tell,you where it's made, but it does state that the down comes from the Siberian goose. We have been very pleased with this comforter. We live in Germany, and it has served us well.

I would say it is a medium warmth, which is what we were looking for since we live in the South. Yet, we had a 28 degree night last week and we are fairly miserly with our heat. It kept us very warm. It is light weight which is also what we wanted. Hope that helps.

If this comforter isn't quite like the hotel quality in terms of getting the most fluff, where do you buy the high end hotel quality down comforters? I'm not too concern about the warmth or how heavy it is, what I'm looking for is the fluff and softness of the material. I don't want the comforter to look flat on my bed and I wouldn't cover it up with a duvet cover. I like the white classic look, the point in getting this type of comforter is because of how it looks I wouldn't cover it up even though white is hard to take care of.

Can't quite remember now, but I have been buying these type of pillows for a long time. They always say "goose down" and both words are important as "down" possibly could be used with synthetic material and sometimes goose feathers are used, no good because there are quills.

I did not realize the white model is cheaper. Typically, anything other than black is more expensive.
