Summit Silk Bedding

My mom loves buying comforters here after hearing their ad on some Chinese radio station and has been replacing our comforters every year from this place.
I don’t know too much about the average prices for comforters made from silk, wool, or cotton but apparently their prices are hard to beat according to my mom.
The two ladies that own the place do not seem too friendly. They don’t greet customers upon arrival and they ask you directly «are you buying anything» and treat you differently depending on your answer.
The blankets and comforters here seem like they have been sitting in storage forever since they are all dusty and the bags being sold are all dirty on the bottom. The owner tried to sell this bag for 10% off but after I saw how dirty it was on the bottom, I decided not to get it even though it was cute.
There is no bathroom except for employees but I needed to go from the long drive so I sneaked in while my mom was looking for a new comforter.

Be very sure you know what you want. They do not honor the return/​exchange policy. I paid over $ 500 for a silk comforter that would have retailed around $ 150 in China. The sales lady helpfully demonstrated how to put on the cover (which has 16 buttons on the inside to keep the blanket from bunching). We took it home, discovered overnight that it was too warm for our needs, brought the blanket back to the store within 3 days hoping to exchange for 2 lighter models (I was willing to pay the difference in price if there was one), and they refused. Pretended they didn’t remember me, said that the blanket was «wrinkled and visibly used» and could not be resold, never mind that I had the receipt and the original packaging (which was so old the plastic handle broke in the store while we were shopping) & had returned within 3 calendar days of purchase.
As others have noted, the duvet covers are mostly patterned in my great-aunt’s taste, no solid colors. We washed ours once to remove the nasty chemicals from the factory and the colors immediately started fading. At least it didn’t bleed, or shrink. The covers are 100% cotton because silk is not as washable.
Customer service was ok before and terrible after purchase. I wasn’t even asking for a refund. I love silk bedding but I won’t be shopping here again.

For ages, I was intimidated by the closed blinds and the mysterious signs. There was a new sign up. I’m guessing it reads new year sale. With the recent frosty weather of the bay, I decided to buy a new blanket. Growing up, we only used fluffy silk comforters that we brought back from trips to Hong Kong. There is nothing like fluffy silk… keeps you nice and warm, but breathable. It’s like sleeping in a giant cocoon. They are so light that sleeping with anything else feels heavy in comparison. They won’t leak feathers like goose down blankets. My old blanket lasted nearly 10 years, before I chucked it before moving.
I walked in & was greeted by a friendly salesperson. She asked me what product I was looking for. I told her blankets, and she said they have several product lines: synthetic, wool, and silk. Of course, I had to spring for the silk! She helped me decide which size to purchase & explained about the weights & covering types. Their prices are clearly displayed on a chart right above the samples. After deciding on the medium weight full size 100% silk comforter with cotton exterior, she went to the back stockroom & brought back a fresh one. They also include a free carrying case.
There was no pressure to get the top of the line or more expensive product. The reps wanted to get you a blanket that suited your needs. My mid-​grade silk blanket is okay for heated indoor environments. If you wanted to save electricity, get the winter heavy weight one. Another shopper said silk was too expensive, so they steered him to the woolen blankets.
They have sales during Christmas & Chinese New Year. Credit cards are accepted. Good thing, ’cause my blanket was $ 200 after tax, even with the new year discount!
The blanket is really nicely made & has lots of attachment points for the duvet cover. They sell duvet covers separately, but patterns are not very modern & more suitable for Asian tastes. I plan on making my own or buying one from Crate ‘n Barrel.

100% silk comforters made with silk fabric and silk batting, imported from China! Really good prices too. I had been looking forever for silk comforters since reading this is what they use in China. I have never visited China but told myself this is what I’d bring back as a souvenier. Silk is super lighweight and really warm. (I am allergic to wool and down makes me sneeze.) A few years ago I finally saw some for sale in NYC Chinatown but they were super expensive and these people have them for ¹⁄₃ of the price.
