I've been researching and testing products for five years, and one of the products I recommend most to my friends and family is the best comforter we've ever tested: the Brooklinen All-Season Down Comforter. I've used it every night I've slept at home for more than three years, and it's held up perfectly.

Our review of the Brooklinen All-Season Down Comforter

If your ideal comforter can regulate temperature well and feels light and compressible, like you've been dropped inside a cloud, then you'll probably like the Brooklinen All-Season Down Comforter.

Thanks to a baffle box construction, the duck down filling stays evenly distributed as I move around at night. Outside, you'll find corner loops on the soft, breathable 100% cotton sateen shell to secure a duvet cover in place. It can be compressed down easily depending on how you're sleeping on it, but it re-fluffs instantly with a shake. 

It has a one-year warranty and a one-year return policy.

Cons to consider

Listen, it's an all-season down comforter. It's going to be the average of the extremes: between the Lightweight and the Ultra-Warm comforters sold by Brooklinen.

And while the filling and cotton do an excellent job of regulating temperature throughout the night, its high fill power (700) means it may still be too warm for people who typically sleep hot. 

I've slept with this comforter for hundreds of nights and through every season and I run slightly hot at night. The Brooklinen All-Season Down is the best all-year comforter I've found, but it's not magical. On hot summer nights, I kick my legs out or sleep with a fan. However, I've never abandoned it altogether in favor of a sheet. 

If you sleep hot and make every bedding choice with that primarily in mind, the Insider Reviews team recommends the Lands' End Essential Down Comforter because it has a lower fill power than average. 

Durability

There's virtually no change to my Brooklinen All-Season Down Comforter now, three years later, than when I first rolled it out onto my bed. It's held up remarkably well, even though I'm not particularly careful with it.

You're supposed to spot clean and line dry naturally or in a dryer with air fluff (no heat), but I've put it through the washing machine in the past without damage. To be clear, I wouldn't recommend taking that chance. If it needs a thorough cleaning, Brooklinen recommends professional dry cleaning.

The bottom line

If you want to invest in a comforter and want to stretch your money by only buying one, I'd recommend the versatile, cozy Brooklinen All-Season Down Comforter. Its quality and performance haven't changed in the three years I've used it nonstop. Simply knowing its on my bed — in its cushy, breathable, cloud-like perfection — makes me excited to go to sleep. After more than a thousand nights of sleep, that's saying something. It may be $300-plus, but investing in sleep is an easy decision for me, and you'll more than get your use out of the money.
