The main difference between a bedspread and a comforter is that comforters and quilts are more insulated. This means that a comforter/quilt has more height and offers more warmth. A bedspread offers some warmth, but it might not be practical for cold weather. Owning both a bedspread and a comforter/quilt is smart for staying cozy in different seasons. If you purchased a Queen, you may want to try a bedspread in a King: Queen: Bedspread: 80"H x 60"W + 23" Drop; King: Bedspread: 80"H x 76"W + 23" Drop.
