Tell me more about the Panda duvet
The Panda Cloud Duvet is one of the softest, most luxurious duvets we've tried.
It combines bamboo and nano-microfibre for that "down feather feeling" - all while being 100% vegan!
Bamboo is naturally thermo-regulating, making this 10.5 tog duvet perfect for any season.
This is, without a doubt, one of the silkiest duvets we've ever slept with—so much so that we recommend using it without a cover.
However, the white colour is quite sensitive, so be careful when washing.
The Panda Cloud Duvet has small corner loops, so you can attach it to hidden straps in all Panda bedding for a free-to-wriggle night's sleep.

Fogarty Bamboo Blend 10.5 Tog Duvet
This duvet is great for allergy sufferers and comes in various togs for different climates.
The Fogarty Bamboo Blend 10.5 Tog Duvet has a soft bamboo and cotton blend cover and 100% recycled polyester filling.
The filling is made from repurposed materials that might have ended up in landfills, such as plastic bottles or manufacturing off-cuts.
Although the filling is not bamboo, recycled polyester is still an eco-friendly material that will keep you warm throughout the winter.
Multiple customers on Dunelm [1] have mentioned that the topper is very soft, like a fluffy cloud.
Others found the cover was too silky, and it caused the filling to bunch up in areas.
We recommend shaking the duvet a few times in the morning to redistribute the filling if it starts to bunch up.
The Fogarty duvet is machine washable and tumble-dryer friendly, so you can keep it clean and in good condition.
It is available in 4.5 and 13.5 togs.
Unfortunately, Dunelm does not offer a sleep trial or guarantee.

Why buy a bamboo duvet?
Bamboo duvets are known for their quality, comfort and sustainability.
The standout features of bamboo duvets UK:
- Sustainable and eco-friendly material
- Luxuriously soft and silky texture
- Exceptional durability for long-lasting use
- Natural temperature regulation for year-round comfort
- Hypoallergenic and resistant to dust mites
Unfortunately, these qualities can be quite difficult to find, which we explain further in the next section.
Do bamboo duvets really contain bamboo?
Unfortunately, duvets with a bamboo filling are quite rare.
Some retailers advertise a duvet as bamboo, but only the cover has a portion of bamboo, and the filling is synthetic.
The small amount of bamboo is a big complaint among customers across Dunelm [2] and Amazon [3] for the Cosy House Collection Luxury Bamboo Down Alternative Duvet and Fogarty Bamboo Blend 10.5 Tog Duvet.
However, customers still praise these duvets for their softness, comfort and machine washability. 🙌
Multiple shoppers liked the silky smooth feel of the bamboo duvet covers, even if the fillings were synthetic.
If you’re looking for a bamboo filled duvet, we recommend the Panda Cloud Duvet, as the filling is a blend of 50% bamboo and 50% nano-microfibre.
Who are bamboo duvets suitable for?
Bamboo duvets (UK) have many benefits and might be the perfect solution for your bed.
Let's take a closer look at who they are suitable for.
Those with allergies
Bamboo duvets are an excellent choice for allergy sufferers.
Bamboo fibres inherently resist common allergens like dust mites, mould, and mildew, thanks to their hypoallergenic and antibacterial nature.
This resistance is partly due to bamboo's moisture-wicking ability, which draws away dampness that otherwise allows allergens to thrive.
By keeping the sleeping environment dryer, bamboo reduces the conditions that allergens need to multiply.
Bamboo duvets, like Fogarty’s Bamboo Blend Duvet, help reduce the risk of irritating nighttime allergies, eczema and sensitive skin.
Eco-conscious individuals
Bamboo is a fast-growing plant that requires minimal resources.
It regenerates quickly without the need for excessive water, pesticides, or synthetic fertilisers.
Bamboo is far more eco-friendly than cotton, which is resource-intensive and often requires vast amounts of water and chemicals.
Bamboo also has a smaller environmental footprint because it doesn't deplete soil nutrients [4] as intensely as cotton farming.
As the soil nutrients deplete, it’s more difficult to grow healthy plants for the future.
Here is a quick overview of how bamboo fabric is made:
Bamboo can also be harvested without killing the plant, further contributing to its sustainability.
Bamboo duvets are a top choice for eco-conscious individuals who are committed to making sustainable choices in their daily lives.
Those looking for a soft and durable duvet
Bamboo fibres are exceptionally smooth and round, producing a silky texture that rivals high-end materials like silk or cashmere.
Unlike feather duvets, there are no sharp elements that can poke out of the fabric weave and irritate your skin.
Bamboo duvets are also renowned for their long-lasting durability.
Bamboo fibres [5] are inherently strong, making them resistant to wear and tear. 🎍
They can withstand regular use and washing without losing their softness or shape.
Unlike other natural materials that may degrade over time, bamboo duvets maintain their quality so your bedding lasts for years to come.
Hot and cold sleepers
Bamboo fibres are excellent at temperature regulation, making bamboo duvets perfect for hot and cold sleepers.
The fibres have tiny gaps and holes, which allow the fabric to breathe, drawing moisture away from the body in warm climates.
In cold weather, the same fibres retain heat, keeping you warm.
This unique ability to adjust to temperature variations makes bamboo duvets a comfortable choice for winter and summer. ☀️
Who are bamboo duvets not suitable for?
While bamboo duvets offer a range of benefits, they may not be the ideal choice for everyone.
Bamboo usually needs a little more care than other materials, like cotton or hollowfibre.
Most bamboo duvets must be washed at a lower temperature (usually 40℃) and tumble-dried on low.
This might be a downside for those who like to throw their bedding in the wash quickly and easily without reading the instructions. 🧺
However, the biggest complaint about bamboo duvets is their price tag.
They can be relatively more expensive than basic synthetic or cotton duvets.
They're also unsuitable for extremely cold climates and better suited to milder areas.
If you're on a tight budget and looking for a more affordable bedding option, bamboo duvets may not align with your financial constraints. 💰
Synthetic duvets, such as the DreamCloud Duvet, tend to be more affordable.

Should you buy a bamboo duvet?
The best bamboo duvet is silky, lightweight and luxurious.
They are great for warmer climates or hot sleepers who need a little more breathability from their duvet.
However, finding a duvet with a bamboo filling is quite difficult.
Some retailers advertise their duvets as bamboo, but only the cover has a percentage of bamboo, and the filling is synthetic.
We recommend the Panda Cloud Duvet for a duvet with a bamboo filling and cover.
