When it comes to choosing the perfect duvet there is a lot to think about dependent upon the current season and different fillings available. There are 3 main factors to consider when choosing a duvet which are the tog rating, the filling and obviously the size.
The tog rating is basically how warm the comforter will be, the ratings vary from a 3 tog up to a 13.5 tog; the lower tog duvets are more suitable for the summers and warmer seasons where as the higher tog duvets are best for winter time to keep you toasty warm.
The filling is usually a personal choice; this has no effect on the tog rating. There are a variety of fillings available at Victoria Linen which are explained below.
Hollow Fibre – these duvets are filled with 100% polyester hollow fibre and have a 100% cotton cover giving it a soft touch and meaning it gently wraps around the body for super comfort.
Duck Feather and Down – these duvets consist of 90% duck feather and 10% duck down with a 100% cotton cover. This type of filling is the lightest of all but because of that it allows you to get cosy in tucked in perfectly.
Goose Down – these duvets consist of 90% premium goose down with a 100% cotton cover for comfort and breathability. This type of filling is incredibly light but also provides the warmth it should.
For the winter season a higher tog duvet will be needed to get through those chilly, icy and snowy nights. A 13.5 tog duvet would be perfect with a filling of your choice and in the size to wrap around your bed superbly.
