The best bed duvet: our selection of the warmest and softest
To get a good night's sleep, you need a good mattress of course, but also a quality duvet. Choosing the right duvet is not a simple task and the decision cannot be taken easily. It is important to take into account both your sleeping habits and the budget, the materials or the size of the comforter you want. If you're looking for the perfect bed duvet to give you a cozy and comfortable night, here's what you should think about before you buy:
Heat index
If you tend to be chilly at night, you'll opt for a natural down comforter that is known for its natural warming abilities. Also, if you prefer to maintain a room temperature below 18°C, it is better to choose very warm comforters. On the other hand, if you tend to get hotter during the night and you tend to sweat easily, choose light or temperate comforters. A third solution on the market is to modulate your comforter with twin comforters. Combining a light comforter for example with a warmer comforter is quite possible. This solution will provide you with better warmth throughout the year, thus extending the life of your comforter. If you are unsure of the warmth level of your comforter, you can use the TOG unit of measurement. This is an English unit of measurement that measures the thermal insulation power of a comforter and will help you choose the right comforter according to the temperature of your room. At Pyrenex, in addition to offering comforters with high quality fabric and impeccable finishes, our comforters are filled with duck and goose down to guarantee you soft nights for many years. With over 160 years of experience, we do not compromise on quality; from the careful finishing to the fabric and filling used, every detail counts. The quality of Pyrenex products is 100% made in France.
Softness
Your comfort level is also an indicator to consider. Unlike synthetic comforters, if you want maximum comfort and wellness during your nights, natural down comforters will be softer. While synthetic fiber comforters are getting better and better, feather duvet remain on the podium if you're looking for the ultimate in softness. In addition to being considered some of the warmest, they will offer you a soft feel on the skin and a loft that will keep you warm. One of the strong points of Pyrenex comforters is the filling power of its down. The greater the filling power of the down, the better the insulation performance. They are therefore ideal for people who tend to be cold at night.
Weight
To determine the weight of a duvet, it is best to pay attention to its weight. The heavier a comforter is, the warmer and puffier it is, the higher its weight. In winter, for example, it is preferable to choose comforters with a high weight. To choose the right weight for your comforter, think about your sleeping habits, the temperature of your room, the season you are in and your preferences in terms of warmth. At Pyrenex, our winter comforters have a weight of up to 200g/m² for an unequalled feeling of warmth.
Dimensions
Choosing the size of your comforter is also a good way to avoid making mistakes before purchasing this product. On average, it is recommended to choose a duvet with a drop of 20 cm longer than the size of your mattress or bed. However, it is also important to take into account your sleeping habits, if you move around a lot during the night, the size, the number of sleepers, as well as the desired drop. All of these tips can help you choose your comforter, but there is no perfect comforter, as requirements change according to individual tastes and needs. Here is a selection of Pyrenex comforters that will accompany you throughout the year thanks to the wide choice of warmth levels, sizes and different solutions.
