Duvets

A duvet for every night and every season

A duvet can make or break your night. Too warm, too flat or too small, and sleep gets annoying fast. Shop Cloudpillo duvets for different seasons, sleep styles and bed sizes, with clear guidance that helps you choose without the usual bedding headache.

Which tog rating suits you?

Tog tells you how warm a duvet feels. The right level depends on your bedroom, the season and whether you usually sleep warm or cold.

• 4.5 tog - light and breathable for summer, especially if you want a cooling duvet
• 7.5 to 10.5 tog - a balanced choice for spring, autumn and many year-round bedrooms
• 13.5 tog - a cosy winter duvet for colder rooms
• All-season duvets - two layers you can use separately or combine for extra warmth

For many people, 13.5 tog is warm enough for winter. If your room runs very cold, an all-season duvet gives you more flexibility.

Choose a filling that matches how you sleep

The filling affects warmth, weight, breathability and care. Synthetic duvets are practical and easy to maintain. Down and feather options feel light and lofty, which is why a down comforter is popular if you want warmth without too much weight. Wool helps with temperature regulation, while silk and bamboo are often chosen by sleepers who prefer a lighter, cooler feel.

The best duvet is not about hype. It is about fit. Want easy care? A washable duvet is often the simple win. Want a more airy, premium feel? A goose down duvet or down duvet can be a strong choice.

What size duvet do you need?

Start with your mattress size, then think about coverage. If you are unsure, this overview of all duvet sizes can help. Your duvet should also be around 20 to 30 cm longer than the tallest sleeper.

• Single duvet - ideal for one sleeper and smaller beds
• Double duvet - a solid match for double beds or solo sleepers who like more room
• King size duvet - great for couples who want extra coverage
• Super king duvet - the most generous option for larger beds

Some couples even choose two single duvets on one mattress so each person gets their own warmth level. Less tug-of-war, more sleep.

Duvet, comforter, quilt and duvet cover - what is the difference?

A duvet is the insert that provides warmth. It is usually used inside a duvet cover, which keeps it cleaner and is easier to wash. A comforter is often the American term for a duvet, although some are designed to be used without a separate cover. A quilt is flatter and lighter, so it works better as a top layer than a full winter replacement. Prefer less laundry? A coverless duvet can be a practical option.

Duvet FAQs

Which duvet is best to buy?

The best choice depends on warmth, filling and size. For more detail on how to choose a duvet, match the tog to your room, the filling to your comfort preference and the size to the coverage you want.

Do I need a duvet cover?

Usually, yes. A duvet cover helps protect your duvet and is easier to wash regularly. You can also change the feel with cotton, linen or bamboo duvet covers.

How often should you replace a duvet?

If your duvet has gone flat, lumpy or less comfortable, it is probably time for a new one. Regular airing and care help it stay fresh for longer.

Can you wash a duvet at home?

Many duvets are machine washable, but not all. Check the care label, use a washer with enough space and make sure the duvet is completely dry before use.

What is an all-season duvet?

An all-season duvet usually combines two lighter layers. Use one layer in warmer months and fasten both together when you want more warmth. If you need help switching through the year, see how to adjust your duvet for every season.
