It is important you make the right decision when choosing your duvet. How do you know which filling, warmth and size is best for you? Our in store experts can help you make the right choice to suit your needs and keep you comfortable all through the night for years to come.

Natural
The concept of a duvet is based on nature itself. Like the fur of animals or the down & feathers of birds a duvet is designed to provide insulation. Down is considered to be the best filling for duvets, this is because they have a substantially longer life span as there is noting inside to break down over time thus keeping your duvet lofty and retaining warmth value.

Feather & down is a more affordable alternative to down as the filling is mostly feathers, this gives a heavier weight, it is not as durable as down but does still give you all the bonuses of natural filling. There are other fillings available too such as cotton, wool & silk all in a variety of togs which are listed below. We also have a large range of natural pillows in a range of fillings and tensions.

Hollofibre
Hollofibre is a good option for allergy sufferers. Polyester fibres are the man made alternative to natural fillings for those who prefer or who must have synthetic fillings as they are non-allergenic. Most hollofibre duvets can be washed at 60° (dust mites are eliminated at 58°).

There are better quality fillings available such as Aerelle & Quallofil, these fibres have better insulation and resist lumping & matting. See below for our chart of togs available in the man made fillings. We also have a large selection of hollofibre pillows in a range of qualities and tensions.
