You can then decide whether you need a duvet with a real feather or synthetic fibre fill. These offer different warmths, with feather and down duvets trapping more heat. However, if you want a vegan option or suffer from allergies, then feather duvets are best avoided. My sleep preferences: I am definitely a sweaty sleeper. The perfect sleep setup, for me, is in front of a fan with lots of pillows and a cozy blanket or duvet cover to curl into when the fan gets a little too chilly. When it comes to duvet covers, the material has to be silky soft and cool to the touch. Incorporate color and texture into your bedroom design with our chic jacquard duvet cover that passed rigorous testing with flying covers. Just like all of the other duvet covers on this list, we carefully examined every inch of the Better Homes & Gardens Clipped Jacquard Diamond Duvet Cover, looking for flaws or imperfections. Our testers found that the textured fabric was quite durable, with no pilling or loose threads, even after machine washing and drying.

If you’re willing to splurge a little for a duvet cover that’s sleek and comfortable without being slippery, our testers were highly impressed by the Boll & Branch Signature Hemmed Duvet. Made from 100% organic long-staple cotton, this plush duvet cover feels just as cozy as it looks—and it’s designed to stay that way for years to come. Though more limited in size options than other options on our list, we found the Mildly Washed Cotton Reversible Duvet Cover to be surprisingly excellent quality for the price. Its intentional crepe-like texture and lightly worn appearance make it look cozy and modern in any room. Upon inspection, our testers discovered no pilling, snagging, or loose threads in the material even after multiple washes, and we love that it’s reversible for greater flexibility. Your Questions, Answered What material is best for a duvet cover? As the Emma Cloud Duvet has a tog of 6.7, this would make it suitable for spring and autumn. Below is a brief summary of what tog you should look into purchasing for each season. SUMMER DUVET

Our top picks:

Fill power: Fill power is specific to down fill and can usually be found in the product description. It's a measurement of how much space 1 ounce of down takes up, and the higher the fill power, the more insulating the duvet insert will be. If you'd like a warm and cozy duvet insert, look for fill powers of 600 or higher. (Some down alternative duvet inserts may list the fill power equivalent.) About the brand: Saatva is a household name for mattresses. With newer categories like furniture, rugs, bedding and bath under their belt, they’re certainly diversifying their product offering while focusing on their specialty; attention to detail. The Organic Percale Duvet Cover Set offers 100% GOTS certified organic cotton, one duvet cover and two pillow shams, a hidden zipper closure on the duvet cover and center envelope opening on shams (a rare find), and corner ties to keep the duvet in place. With a 200-thread count, it feels really light and airy to the touch, while remaining warm enough for colder months.

After all, it's better to get a high-quality super king duvet than two cheap duvets that use low-quality materials. What are the advantages of owning the best duvet? This duvet cover is made of GOTS certified organic cotton, which means the entire cotton production process is organic. Coyuchi uses the same fabric for its sheets , which have been tested in Lab and are one of our favorite sheet sets . The percale weave is lightweight and breathable and is great for someone who prefers a more relaxed look for bedding because the fabric has a crinkly texture. Our testers found the material to be crisp and luxurious yet soft. In Lab tests for pilling resistance with our abrasion tester, some pilling was noticeable, and the material did crease after being washed, but that's typical of relaxed fabrics. Plus, we barely noticed any shrinkage post-wash. Inner corner ties are easy to attach to a duvet insert, and even the buttons are natural, made of coconut shell.The lower the tog rating, the less warm the duvet. Around a 4.5 tog is a good hot weather duvet, a 10.5 will work for autumn and spring, and in cold weather, you could go for a 13.5 tog. This is particularly great for couples as it keeps the chillier sleepers warmer while keeping warmer sleepers at a comfortable temperature. My experience: This duvet cover is what silken dreams are made of! It has buttons and interior ties, which make it easy to secure whatever comforter you’re using, and the blush pink color is neutral enough to blend in with any decor scheme. One thing I would be mindful of is cutting away any loose threads hanging off the ties or seams of the duvet, as it’s easy for them to get tangled when you’re untying the closures to wash your bedding. The silk material itself felt like a treat for my skin. The material has the appearance of your run-of-the-mill sateen sheets but feels much softer and more breathable, which I adored. Since it’s winter I’m always wrapped up in some sort of comforter, and my winter-weight Coyuchi duvet paired with this cover makes me feel like royalty.
