Night sweats: we’ve all been there. Your pyjamas are soaked, your pillow feels clammy, and the bedding is stuck to your skin. 🥵 You throw off the duvet to cool down, only to feel cold moments later. Struggling to find that perfect temperature? Want to finally put an end to waking up drenched? Let’s find the best duvet for night sweats.
What are night sweats?
Everyone sweats while they sleep. On average, we lose 200 to 500 ml of fluid each night through sweat and breathing. But if you often wake up soaked and uncomfortable, you might be experiencing night sweats. It usually means waking up in the middle of the night, completely overheated and wet. And when you try to cool down outside the duvet, you feel cold again. Classic signs of night sweats.
Sound familiar? Your current duvet might be to blame. But there are other factors too. Here are the most common causes of night sweats:
- Non breathable duvet | Some materials trap heat and stop it escaping, making you overheat. The solution? Choose breathable materials. We’ll share the best options below.
- Bedroom temperature | Whether you prefer an open window or a toasty room, ventilation is key. A well aired space helps reduce sweating.
- Body based causes | Night sweats aren’t always about your bedding. Things like weight, hormone levels or sleep disorders can play a role. If you think a medical issue might be the cause, speak to your GP.
- Food and drink | Drinking alcohol or caffeine, or eating spicy food before bed? That could raise your body temperature and trigger sweating.
Which duvet helps with sweating?
The best duvet for night sweats? That’s the Cloudpillo duvet. Our duvets feature the latest ventilation innovations, so they’re breathable, light and cool to the touch, while still keeping you comfortably warm. The best of both worlds. Choose from three options:
|
Cloudpillo Duvet

Looking for a breathable duvet? These are the best materials
If you’re a hot sleeper, go for a duvet that absorbs moisture and allows air to flow. Here are the top picks:
- Synthetic duvets | Think synthetics make you sweat? Not anymore. Modern materials like microfibre are incredibly breathable. They’re also hypoallergenic and lightweight, but still keep you warm. Both the Cloudpillo Duvet and Partner Duvet are made from 100% polyester (microfibre and hollow fibre).
- Down duvets | Down and feathers naturally regulate temperature, making them perfect for sweat free nights. Soft, breathable and luxurious, our Down and Feather Duvet is filled with 85% duck feathers and 15% duck down, and finished with a percale cotton outer layer.
- Bamboo or cotton duvets | These are great at absorbing moisture and allowing airflow, but they don’t retain warmth as well and wear down quicker with frequent washing.
