Why buy a duvet?
A duvet is an essential part of any bed setup, creating that perfect cocoon feeling that makes it difficult to get out of bed in the morning - in a good way! 🤗
Duvets generally consist of a soft outer shell, often made of cotton, and an inner filling of down, feather, bamboo, or synthetic materials.
In contrast to blankets, which are often thin & heavy, duvets are light and fluffy.
They allow you to move more freely. 💃
They're also warm and comfortable, keeping you snug at the ideal temperature, whether it's summer or winter.
Having a good duvet virtually guarantees you'll get a good night's sleep at the right temperature. 😴
Choosing the right duvet will depend on ambient room temperature and the duvet's weight, materials, and size.
Steps to choosing the right duvet:
Let's look at some of those factors in more detail. 👇
Choosing the right duvet filling
Duvets can be made from a wide range of different materials.
Generally, though, these are divided into two groups:
- Natural duvets 🌱
- Synthetic duvets 🧪
Both types are equally popular, with hollowfibre duvets and feather & down duvets ranking as the most common ones.
Which duvet you'll choose ultimately depends on the feel you're going for - and your budget. 💰
Natural duvet fillings
Traditional duvets will contain natural fillings.
Some of the most common natural duvet filling materials include:
- Duck or goose feathers
- Down
- Cotton
- Silk
- Wool
- Bamboo
Natural materials are the obvious choice for anyone looking for organic and eco-friendly materials. ☘️
These fillings are also antibacterial, lighter, and more thermal-insulating.
They often offer better temperature regulation as natural materials absorb moisture more effectively without becoming clammy, making them a good choice for hot sleepers or those who sweat easily. 💧
Best feather and down duvets
Feather and down duvets are among the most popular duvets on the market, with materials sourced from duck or geese. 🦆
These are very luxurious duvets that retain heat well but are unlikely to cause overheating.
There are two things to consider with feather & duck duvets:
- Feather-to-down ratio: If your duvet has more down than feathers, it'll be lighter, squishier, and airier. If it has more feathers, it'll be denser and weightier.
- Fill power: The higher the fill power, the larger each down piece will be, resulting in a fluffier duvet with better insulation.
Of course, you also need to consider the tog rating, which will indicate overall warmth.
We look at tog ratings in more detail further down. 👇
While feather and down duvets offer exceptional quality, these are not vegan, and they're not always produced humanely.
You need to check with each brand to ensure materials are ethically sourced.
On the downside, home-washing of feather & down duvets isn't recommended. 🧺
This is because these duvets take a very long time to dry, and the filling can be damaged in the process.
If you need to have a down or feather duvet washed, it's best to bring it to a professional laundry.
Best wool duvets
Wool duvets are less common, but they're an excellent anti-allergy choice that's similarly priced to feather and down duvets. 🐑
These duvets are often chunkier and denser.
Wool is a naturally hypoallergenic material that's resistant to dust mites.
This is great for allergy sufferers. 🤧
Often, duvet allergies are not caused by the material itself but by dust mites that accumulate in the filling.
A dust-mite-resistant filling is a perfect solution.
On the downside, wool cannot be washed at high temperatures. 🌡
Wool is thermo-regulating and adjusts to your body temperature.
This keeps you warm in winter and cool in summer.
Additionally, wool is renewable, sustainable, and recyclable, so it's much better for the environment. ♻️
Wool is also often more ethically sourced than feathers and down.
Best silk duvets
Silk duvets are beautifully lightweight, luxurious, and indulgent.
They offer good warmth but have excellent breathability and are great at wicking away moisture, making them a perfect choice for people prone to overheating. 💨
Silk is also naturally hypoallergenic and resistant to dust mites.
This makes silk duvets ideal for people with sensitive skin or eczema, or those struggling with allergies or asthma.
The Boutique Silk Duvet is our favourite, made from microfibre and pure silk for added luxury.
Synthetic duvet fillings
Synthetic duvet fillings are becoming more and more popular.
They're often available at a much lower price point than natural duvets. 🥳
Common synthetic duvet materials include polyester, hollowfibre, and microfibre.
Unfortunately, many synthetic duvets consist of microplastics, which can have a devasting environmental impact. 🌎
They're also not as breathable as natural duvets, so you could feel hot and clammy if you're a heavy sweater. 🥵
Synthetic duvets also aren't as thermal insulating as natural duvets, so you'll often need heavier weights for the same warmth.
On the plus side, synthetic duvets are hypoallergenic [1] and can easily be popped into the washing machine at home. 🛀
This makes them an excellent choice for people prone to allergies.
Best hollowfibre duvets
Hollowfibre duvets are very popular. 🛍
This is a hypoallergenic, synthetic material that's great for people prone to allergies.
Unlike feather duvets, hollowfibre duvets can also be machine-washed.
Unfortunately, they don't last as long as natural duvets and are likely to lose their tog value relatively quickly.
If properly cared for, though, a good hollowfibre duvet should last at least five years. 🗓
The Hypnia All Seasons duvet is an excellent choice.
Best microfibre duvets
Microfibre is relatively new on the market.
It has been designed as a synthetic equivalent to down with extra-fine fibres that are light, soft, and cuddly.
Microfibre feels very similar to down, but it's often lighter and cheaper.
The Panda Cloud duvet features a nano-microfibre filling, and it's a budget-friendly, soft, and cuddly duvet option that we can highly recommend.
Understanding tog ratings
A tog [2] is a measure of thermal insurance of a unit area. 🌡
It is commonly used in the textile industry to give the warmth levels of duvets.
Tog rating refers to the warmth or thermal resistance of a duvet.
It measures the ability of a duvet (without a cover) to trap air.
The higher the tog, the more air it can trap, and the warmer the duvet will be.
In the UK, the tog scale runs from 1 to 15:
- The higher the tog number, the warmer the duvet will be.
- The lower the tog number, the cooler the duvet will be.
But how do you know which tog rating is right for you?
Choosing the right tog rating
Unless you're sleeping in a fully temperature-controlled room, your bedroom temperature will undoubtedly be influenced by the seasons.
- If your room is cooler (below 18°C), you'll need to opt for a warmer duvet.
- If your room is warmer (above 22°C), you should be okay with a lighter duvet.
But, you also need to consider your personal preferences.
If you easily feel cold at night, you'll fare better with a warmer duvet. ❄️
In contrast, if you sweat easily or sleep quite warm, a lighter duvet should be fine.
What's the best tog duvet?
There's no such thing as the best tog duvet, as the type of tog that best fits will depend according to how hot you run, where you live, and the season.
But, you can buy duvets that are meant to change with your body - i.e. keep you warmer if you're cold and keep you cooler if you're hot.
The Simba Hybrid is one such option and is one of the best all-season duvets you can find.
Choose according to the season
You'd generally select different tog ratings according to the season.
- For the summer months, duvets with a tog rating of under 5 are common. We'd recommend a 3 - 4.5 tog rating for summer, warmer homes, or people who quickly feel hot at night.
- For spring and autumn, duvets with a tog rating of 7 - 10.5 are comfortable.
- For the winter months, duvets with a tog rating of between 12 and 15 will keep you warm and toasty. Choose 13.5 or higher if your house gets very cold or if you quickly feel cold. If you're a hot sleeper, though, you may be more comfortable with a 10.5 tog duvet.
Most duvets come in a range of togs, so you can choose the one best for you.
With the rise of central heating, many people have also begun opting for all-season duvets. 🍁
There are two main types of all-season duvets:
- Some brands offer mid-range togs that will work for both summer and winter.
- Other brands offer two separate duvets (one with a lower tog and one with a higher tog) with poppers or buttons. This allows you to put the two together to keep you warm on those cold winter nights.
If you don't want to purchase a range of duvets, an all-season duvet is a convenient solution for year-round comfort.
The Simba Hybrid duvet is one of the best all-seasons duvets with unique temperature-regulation technology.
What's the best winter duvet?
The best winter duvet will be a mid- or heavier-tog option that's generally quite airtight but also fluffy and mouldable.
Our favourite option is The Fine Bedding Company Boutique Silk duvet in 13.5 tog option.
What's the best summer duvet?
The best summer duvet will be a lighter- or mid-range tog option that's very breathable.
The Panda Cloud duvet, while generally considered an all-seasons duvet, is actually one of the best summer duvets we've tried.
It's light and breathable, but still very fluffy and manages to keep you warm without the risk of overheating.
What's the best duvet for hot sleepers?
Generally, the best duvet for hot sleepers will be similar to what you'd need as the best summer duvet - something that's light, fluffy, and breathable.
It's also worth paying attention to extra-breathable materials, like bamboo or silk.
The Boutique Silk duvet is a great option for hot sleepers.
Consider other influences
Some other factors could also influence your choice of duvet.
For example, if you're sharing your bed with a partner, it's often better to opt for a lower tog rating as the second person will add warmth. 👩❤️👨
Similarly, your duvet cover can have an effect.
Tog ratings refer to the naked duvet, but your duvet cover can make it feel much warmer. 🔥
The largest additional factor to consider, though, is your mattress.
The best mattresses will keep you at a comfortable temperature, but mattress material does matter.
Conventionally, pocket sprung mattresses are considered the coolest and memory foam mattresses the warmest.
As memory foam retains more heat than other types of foam, you're likely to sleep much warmer overall. 🥵
If you quickly feel warm at night, it would make sense to use a duvet with a lower tog rating if you're sleeping on a memory foam mattress or a memory foam mattress topper.
This will prevent overheating.
What about tog ratings for children?
Most children will be comfortable with a lighter-weight duvet of about 4.5 togs.
This should be warm enough - unless your child's bedroom is very cold.
As children are smaller, duvets automatically trap more air and feel warmer overall.
As a general guideline:
- Children above the age of 6 can comfortably use adult duvets with lower tog ratings.
- Children sleeping in cots should use smaller duvets specifically designed for cot beds.
Children under the age of 1 should not be sleeping with a duvet.

Considering the weight of a duvet
Have you ever spent a night under a duvet that felt a bit too heavy?
With the emergence of weighted blankets and evidence that extra weight can decrease anxiety, you may think that this is a good thing. 🤔
But heavy duvets (and weighted blankets, for that matter) don't work for everyone.
The weight of a duvet will generally range from 180 grams and 500 grams per m², but this is quite heavily influenced by whether the duvet is natural or synthetic. ⚖️
Contrary to popular belief, heavier duvets are not necessarily warmer than lighter ones.
So why are some so much heavier?
Synthetic duvets aren't as thermally insulating as natural duvets and will often require more bulk to be as warm.
This means that synthetic duvets are generally heavier than natural duvets. 🏋️♀️
Natural duvets can achieve a higher degree of thermal insulation with much less bulk.
Here's a guideline:
- The average weight of a natural winter duvet will be 270 grams per m².
- The average weight of a synthetic winter duvet will be between 300 grams and 450 grams per m².
- The average weight of a natural summer duvet will be 180 grams per m².
- The average weight of a synthetic summer duvet will be 230 grams per m².
There is no right or wrong when choosing duvet weight, and you can go for whatever feels the most comfortable. 🤗
That said, more petite builds, restless sleepers, or those who struggle with claustrophobia will generally prefer lighter duvets.
How to choose the size of your duvet
The perfect duvet should look great on your bed.
Choosing the right size duvet is quite easy - it should match the size of your bed.
Standard duvet sizes are slightly larger than their corresponding mattress sizes. 🇬🇧
The standard UK duvet sizes are:
- Cot bed duvets: 120 x 150 cm (3'9" x 3'9")
- Single duvets: 135 x 200 cm (4'4" x 6'6")
- Double duvets: 200 x 200 cm (6’6” x 6’6”)
- King duvets: 230 x 220 cm (7'5" x 7'2")
- Super-king duvets: 260 x 220 cm (8'5" x 7'2")
- Emperor duvets: 290 x 235 cm (9'5" x 7'7")
But, there are certain instances where you might choose to purchase a larger duvet.
For example, if you're sharing your bed with a duvet-hogging partner, you may want a larger duvet for a more comfortable (and warmer) sleep.
Though, if you still find yourself fighting for the covers, it may be worth investing in individual duvets.
You may also wish to purchase a larger duvet if you easily feel cold at night. 🥶
This will ensure that the duvet wraps around the mattress, which keeps out any excess air.
Conveniently, larger duvets also look quite chic as they drape over the edge of the bed.
Best duvet covers
Bedding matters. 🙌
Your duvet cover should always match the size of your duvet.
If you want to create a luxurious sleep hub that's cosy and comfortable, it's also best to go for bedding or a duvet cover set that matches the mood you want to create. 🥰
Alternatively, you could opt for one of the more popular coverless duvets for a duvet that you can pop straight into the wash!
Our favourite is the Fine Bedding Night Owl coverless duvet.
You can add a weighted blanket, like the eco-friendly Nectar weighted blanket, or a luxury bed throw for some extra ambience.

There are many factors to consider when choosing a new duvet.
You need to think about tog ratings, duvet weights, materials, and sizes.
The perfect duvet will enhance your sleeping comfort. 😴

Frequently asked questions
-
Does duvet design matter?
It's worth opting for a duvet with a quilted design.
Quilted duvets with box stitching feature little "pockets" that hold the filling.
This ensures that the filling remains evenly spread across the duvet and prevents any cold spots.
-
Which duvet is best for people prone to allergies?
Surprisingly, only a few people are allergic to natural duvet fillings.
Some may be allergic to feather or down, but most allergic reactions are due to house dust mites and not the duvet filling itself.
This means that eliminating dust mites is the priority. 👌
Unfortunately, dust mites feed on skin scales (yuck!), and they like to live in warm and comfortable places - like your bed.
When choosing a duvet, make sure that the fabric isn't woven too tightly.
A looser weave makes it less likely for skin flakes to get caught in the material.
This makes the presence of dust mites less likely.
Also, make sure that you encase your duvet in a duvet cover that you wash regularly.
You can also look for a duvet made of materials that can be washed at high temperatures.
This will kill dust mites and other allergens.
What's the difference between anti-allergy and hypoallergenic?
If you struggle with allergies and are looking for bedding to help, it's important to distinguish between "hypoallergenic" and "anti-allergy".
- Hypoallergenic: This means that the actual material and filling of the duvet isn't made of a known potential allergen, but other allergens (like dust mites) can still develop.
- Anti-allergy: This means that the filling and cover have been treated to combat the development of dust mites.
Anti-allergy duvets are suitable for people struggling with asthma, eczema, or rhinitis.
How do you know if you have a dust mite allergy?
If you have a dust mite allergy, it may be worth investing in an anti-allergen duvet.
But how do you know if you have a dust mite allergy?
Here are some tell-tale signs:
- You wake up with watery, red eyes.
- You sneeze a lot or have a runny/itchy nose in bed.
- You wake up with a sore throat or hoarse voice.
- You cough a lot or have breathing problems.
- Your skin itches or you develop a rash.
- If you have asthma, your symptoms appear to worsen.
Try to kill dust mites by washing your bedding at high temperatures.
Alternatively, opt for anti-allergy bedding that has been treated to be unhomely to dust mites.
-
How often should you wash your duvet?
If you change your covers regularly and there is no excessive soiling of the material (through stains, heavy perspiration, incontinence, etc.), your duvet only needs to be washed once a year.
-
How often should you change your duvet?
According to The Sleep Council [3], duvets have an average lifespan of about five years.
That said:
- Cheaper, lower-quality duvets should be replaced after two or three years.
- Expensive, higher-quality duvets can last an average of ten years or longer.
Natural duvets will often last longer than synthetic duvets.
Some high-quality ones will keep for as long as 30 years!
So even though they're more expensive initially, you'll get more value for money in the long term.
You can also extend the lifespan of your duvet by taking good care of it.
Wash your duvet once every 6 to 12 months and refresh it in between by airing it outdoors.
Use a good quality duvet cover to protect your duvet and wash your bedding weekly.
If in doubt, judge the quality of your duvet.
If it starts to feel thin, the filling is no longer evenly spread, or if the filling starts to come out, it's time to replace your duvet.
-
What duvets do luxury hotels use?
Most luxury hotels would use a down feather duvet with a tog of around 10.5.
Hungarian goose down duvets are very popular.
-
Where can you buy a duvet?
You may be more familiar with buying duvets in-store.
These are all excellent choices:
But we're big fans of online purchases.
You can opt for online retailers like Happy Beds, Mattress Online, Mattress Next Day, Dreams, Silentnight, or Amazon UK.
Alternatively, you can also buy directly from some of the best online bedding brands, which we recommend in our article.
-
Consider the environmental impact of your duvet choice
People are becoming more in tune with how our actions affect the world. 🌍
If you'd like to make an environmentally-conscious bedding choice, it's good to look at a few smaller things.
This doesn't mean you have to get an organic duvet (which can be much more expensive).
But you could opt for a duvet with natural fillings, like down, feathers, or wool.
Natural fillings are biodegradable, take less energy to produce, and don't contain plastic microfibers.
These are a better long-term choice.
For any duvet choice, make sure that it carries the OEKO-Tex Standard 100 [4] certification.
This means that the product doesn't contain any harmful chemicals or toxins.
But the brand you choose can also help in other ways.
- Is the packaging reusable and recyclable?
- How much plastic is used?
- Are materials sustainably sourced?
Brands like Panda London, for example, may not be 100% organic and use synthetic materials, but they have 100% recycled and recyclable packaging.
Their Panda Cloud Duvet is one of our favourites.
