There's a big variation in poly batts. I've quilted some comfort quilts for which I was given a thin scratchy poly batt from Wal-mart. I doubt that it holds up over time as well as the Warm & Bright poly (soft, thicker, and even) that I've bought from JoAnn's, made by the Warm Co. OTOH, the thinner batt makes a lighter quilt, which may be perfect when you just want something cuddly, not necessarily warm.
