Yep.

Depends. I like my Garnet Hill comforter and quilt. I don't like duvets so can't comment on those.

Just bought a quilt/comforter (it really is like a combo of the two) and it's almost freakishly long on the sides - I have a thick mattress and it still covers part of the side rails. Thought maybe I have it on the bed wrong and turned it but then the stripes run the wrong way and the fit is even worse. Yes, usually it's the other way 'round with skimpy width.

DLM I was able to turn a comforter around to look better, but it was an all over floral.

I have a queen/full quilt on a queen bed and it's far too long on every side.

My duvets are ok but I buy king quilts for my queen bed.

I agree. I have often bought king quilts for a queen bed. I too dislike the whole full/queen concept. We don’t use a duvet.

I'vw been buying extra large comforters and duvets from the Company store and Cuddledown for our king. . We recently bought a new bed and the mattresses are much larger than our old one. The low profile box spring is 5" and the inner spring is 14"., I've been hunting everywhere for a matelasse bedspread/coverlet that would cover both mattresses and I finally find several at the Company Store.

This is a king duvet from Pottery Barn on a king bed. It is so frustrating. I need to check the Company Store for something larger.

Pottery Barn is the worst, especially their Full/Queen size. It's barely long enough on the sides and is too short from head to foot so I always have a bit of sheet showing.

What are the measurements of the bed? I always check the measurements of bedding to be sure it will fit.

I do like Funkyart - King for Queen bed.

What if you have a king bed? I'm remeasuring everything tomorrow and will report back.

I ended up buying 2 matelasse quilts at Tuesday Morning. I split one of them down the middle and attached it to the sides of the other one. Too much work!

I have a high, 4 poster king with side rails and must have 108" wide to reach the rails. Barely exists!

I , also, buy king size for our queen size beds.

Yes. I tried buying a size up but then they were too big. Now, I turn them so the sizes are now the top/bottom and the top/bottom are the sides.

I have the f/q Hanna quilt from PB. It shrunk a little first time washed, but still manages to cover the mattress sides. Mine is 11-12 inches deep.

So far I have not had a problem with quilts or duvets, but I have with sheets. They have way too much length and not enough width. I also am frustrated with cotton blankets that shrink.

Ok....so my Company Store duvet cover is 108x96. I would really like it a little longer on the sides...and I have a low profile box spring. My top mattress is 10" high. I am using a quilt inside which is too short on the sides and does not fill out the duvet so the sides look flat. I hesitate to get a comforter because they are just too heavy and unwieldy in king size especially.

Joaniepoanie have you tried a very lightweight down blanket? I use one inside a thin cotton duvet during the winter. My DH hates heavy blankets on his feet but that he can deal with.

DLM....great idea! Thanks...and thanks to all.

My new innerspring is 14" and the low profile box spring is 5" . I don't like dust ruffles or lots of extra decorative pillows on my bed and I want the duvet or bedspread to cover both mattresses and the sleeping pillows too - the way an old fashioned bedspread does. I use the Company Store matelasse covers on my king. The King coverlet bedspread is 118 x 115 which covers the mattresses on all 3 sides and the pillows. On the queen in our guest room I use the King coverlet which is 114 x 98.
