Blue Ridge Microfiber Comforter, Full-Queen

This comforter is warm and lightweight and I like the option of having two sides with different colors! However, the material is pretty generic and does not stand up against my cats claws and the washer. My cat's claws ripped some threads here and there (may be a result of my cat and not the material, but still worth noting). I have also washed it 4-5 times in the 4-5 months I have owned it and noticed the seams holding both sides together was starting to rip apart and show the stuffing. I used a few safety pins to pin the sides together to keep the stuffing from coming out. I had to do this in two different locations on the comforter, and that does has seemed to solve the issue for the time being. However, I have not washed it since I noticed this and am not sure how it would stand up against the washer with exposed areas of the comforter. I have opted to put a duvet cover it due to the loose threads from cat claws and the safety pins holding together multiple holes. Works great as a duvet cover insert! Don't have to worry about washing and if any stuffing falls out, the duvet cover will catch it. Not originally how I had intended to use this comforter, but still works! Overall not a bad product for the price, but might be worth it to invest in something more durable if you plan on washing it often or have animals that like to use their claws!
