FAQ
What's the difference between cotton and microfibre duvets?
Cotton duvets are breathable and naturally regulate temperature, making them good for warmer sleepers. Microfibre duvets are incredibly soft and lightweight, offering excellent warmth without feeling bulky – they’re a popular choice for year-round use.
How do I know which duvet fill weight is right for me?
Fill weights are measured in grams per square metre (gsm). Lower gsm duvets are lighter and cooler, while higher gsm duvets provide more warmth. If you tend to get hot at night, opt for a lower gsm; if you prefer a warmer sleep, choose a higher gsm.
What size duvet cover should I buy with my Single duvet?
You’ll typically need a 135cm x 200cm (53in x 79in) duvet cover for a single duvet. However, always check the specific dimensions of your duvet before purchasing to ensure a snug and comfortable fit.
Can I wash my duvet cover with my duvet?
It's generally recommended to wash duvet covers separately from duvets, especially when first purchased, to minimise any potential colour transfer. Follow the care instructions on both items carefully.
Do I need a fitted sheet under my duvet cover?
While not strictly necessary, using a fitted sheet underneath your duvet cover helps prevent the duvet from slipping and provides an extra layer of protection for your mattress.
How do I measure my single mattress?
Measure the length and width of your mattress carefully. Add approximately 10-15cm to each measurement to ensure a comfortable fit with the duvet cover, accounting for the depth of the mattress too.
What are percale and sateen cotton duvets?
Percale is known for its crisp, cool feel due to its plain weave, making it ideal for warmer months. Sateen has a subtly lustrous finish created by a more densely woven fabric, offering a softer, warmer feel – good for cooler weather.
Are patterned duvet covers harder to wash?
Patterned duvet covers require extra care when washing, particularly the first few washes. Turn them inside out, use a gentle detergent, and avoid using hot water or tumble drying to preserve the pattern's vibrancy.
What if the duvet cover doesn’t fit my duvet perfectly?
Most duvet covers are designed with a slight allowance for movement, but if you find it too tight, consider ordering a larger size. Check the manufacturer’s sizing guide carefully before purchasing.
Can I mix and match different coloured duvet covers?
Absolutely! Creating a coordinated colour scheme is entirely your preference. Consider using accent colours to add personality and style to your bedroom – explore our range of patterns and shades to achieve your desired aesthetic.
