Also a comforter, in my humble, modern opinion, has a very high loft. Right or wrong, that is how I distinguish them.

ube quilting, I am of the same thought. To me, comforters are filled with a lot of "fluff" and not much stitching holding them together. In my day, I'd bought several of the Walmart-KMart-Penney's-Sears comforters. One washing and the fluff would bunch up and leave a knobby mess. More than once I found myself ripping the stitching and removing the filling and closing in up to use as a bedspread.
