Product Information

Customers are saying: “First time I’ve used 15 tog and the difference is immediate. It’s so warm and comfortable.” The temperature you see on the care label is the highest temperature the duvet can take, so it’s okay to wash it at a lower temperature to be kinder on your product and the planet. Running a prewash can help with heavily soiled linens and most modern detergents provide excellent results at low temperatures. As diverse as the fill materials on offer are (think feather & down, wool, and a host of clever synthetic hollow-fibre and microfibres that mimic the best natural fills), there are also different types of duvet to choose from: If you're a hot sleeper or suffer from night sweats then you might also find this high down-mix fill too warm; opt for a more breathable wool-filled duvet like Floks Luxury British All Seasons Wool Duvetinstead to avoid overheating. Pros: Eco-friendly, top quality, free standard delivery, naturally lightweight, supremely soft and snuggly

Don't buy it if: you're on a tight budget as this luxury duvet has a luxury price tag. If you're a hot sleeper or suffer from night sweats then you might find down too warm; opt for a more breathable wool-filled duvet instead to avoid overheating. And, if you're vegan, then the feather and down fill won't be for you. Typically crafted with materials that offer superior insulation, winter duvets are designed to keep us toasty warm. And with the cost-of-living crisis continuing to loom large this autumn/winter, anything that stops us reaching for the dreaded thermostat – or indeed the leccy-guzzling electric blanket – is a godsend. Customers are saying: “This all seasons duvet is so fluffy and doesn’t lose any of its superb comfort. My husband is a very hot sleeper and I’m a cold sleeper so body temperature is important, but we’re both comfortable all year round.” The best summer duvets are lightweight and breathable, but they won’t give you that cosy warmth you’re craving during the winter. “I would not recommend duvets that are thin, have a poor-quality fill, or are made with linen fabrics, simply because they’re not ideal for the colder months” says Simba’s Mary Love. “You may find yourself shivering in the night!”An all-season duvet is made up of two separate duvets of differing togs – one lightweight and one midweight – that can be attached together into one single heavyweight duvet or used separately. The idea being that you can mix and match to ensure you have the perfect weight duvet for spring, summer, autumn, and winter. Buy it if: you're looking for the very best duvet for a great night's sleep. This wool-filled duvet is an investment, but we've tried and tested some of the best winter duvets on the market, and in our opinion, this is the cream of the crop. It's the warmest we've come across, keeping our testers warm and toasty throughout the night without any of the overheating or night sweats that occurred with other high tog options. That's thanks to the naturally thermoregulating properties of wool that allow moisture to escape whilst still providing insulation. Handmade in Yorkshire using 100% traceable British Cheviot wool and certified organic cotton this is also a great eco-friendly option, with wool completely biodegradable. OEKO-TEX Made In Green is a traceable product label for textiles that verifies that a product has been tested for harmful substances. It also guarantees that the product has been manufactured using sustainable processes under socially responsible working conditions.

Although you can get duvets in almost any tog rating, the most common togs are 4.5 tog which makes a great summer duvet weight, 10.5 tog which tends to be the best bet for autumn and spring, and 13.5 tog which offers good winter warmth. Pros: Sustainably made, versatile – this is the only duvet you’ll need to buy, offers year-round comfort, free, carbon-neutral 3 day delivery OEKO-TEX Standard 100 verifies that a product has been tested for harmful substances. If a product carries the STANDARD 100 label you can be certain that every component (thread, button, zip etc) has been tested for harmful substances and is therefore harmless in ecological terms. Don't buy it if: you truly want to splash out on the best duvet for your boudoir. This option is very good for its price, but the higher feather mix does mean it feels more 'clumpy' than the 90% down alternatives on our list. That said, this is still a great buy, and the addition of feathers does make the duvet a little more breathable than a duvet with a higher down percentage, albeit not quite as warm. GLAMOUR tested review: “This extra warm duvet is very much reasonably priced. Having tried them, we’re also a huge fan of the surprisingly lightweight feel of M&S’ synthetic duvets, despite the high tog count.”Why you can trust Ideal Home Our expert reviewers spend hours testing and comparing products and services so you can choose the best for you.

Long thought of as the Holy Grail of duvet fillings, down creates a plump, squishy and super soft duvet.However, that luxury feel comes with a luxury price tag to match. As its name suggests, this is another synthetic winter duvet that successfully mimics real down, and you’d be forgiven for thinking it’s part of a luxurious hotel collection. It boasts a polyester filling that’s made with at least 30 per cent recycled materials, while the casing is also 100 per cent polyester and proves soft and smooth to the touch. As with a real fluffy down product, this is a lovely lightweight and breathable duvet, yet it feels supremely warm at the same time. It boasts a 13.5 tog rating, making it a good choice for hot sleepers, even when the temperature unexpectedly nosedives in the winter. You can expect a top-quality finish from this entirely vegan product, too with fine stitching both on the edges and within the quilt itself, keeping all those bouncy, man-made fibres evenly distributed. Another solution is to opt for an 'all-season' duvet. This consists of two separate lighter tog duvets that can be joined together (usually by way of press studs) to make a warmer winter duvet. Most commonly an all-season duvet will include a 4.5 tog and 9 tog duvet that can create a 13.5 tog duvet once combined, or a 4.5 tog and 10.5 tog duvet that will create a warmer 15 tog combination. GLAMOUR tested review: “It’s another fairly expensive number, but Emma often has big savings so look out for those throughout the year.” Emma Henderson.
