I bought bamboo batting a couple of years ago at Walmart (maybe that was the problem) and used it in a small quilt for DH's car. The quilt had a lot of black fabric and the bamboo that I had bearded terribly, so I would not use it again. Apparently that has not been a problem for others on this post. I was working on a baby quilt for my DGD and was thankful that I didn't use it for hers.
