Duvet Buying Guide
Your Ultimate Guide to Buying the Perfect Duvet
A luxurious night's sleep begins with the right duvet. At Duvet Company, we believe that selecting the perfect duvet should be effortless, ensuring you experience hotel-quality comfort every night. This guide will walk you through everything you need to know about choosing the ideal duvet to suit your sleep preferences, the seasons, and your lifestyle.
1. Understanding Tog Ratings – Finding Your Perfect Warmth
The tog rating measures a duvet’s warmth and insulation. The higher the tog, the warmer the duvet. Here's a quick guide:
| Tog Rating | Best For | Description |
|---|---|---|
| 4.5 Tog | Summer | Lightweight and breathable, perfect for warm nights. |
| 7.5 Tog | Spring/Summer | Offers a balance of warmth and lightness for milder seasons. |
| 10.5 Tog | All Seasons | Ideal for year-round use, providing comfort in various temperatures. |
| 13.5 Tog | Winter | Provides extra warmth for colder months, ensuring cosy nights. |
| 15 Tog | Ultimate Winter | Our warmest option, designed for those who desire maximum warmth during the chilliest nights. |
What is a Tog Rating?
A tog rating measures the thermal insulation of a duvet—essentially, how warm it will keep you. The higher the tog, the warmer the duvet, making it a key factor in ensuring your comfort through different seasons.
2. Premium Filling – The Heart of Luxury
The duvet filling plays a crucial role in determining its softness, breathability, and overall comfort. At DuvetCompany.co.uk, we use only the finest materials to ensure a superior sleep experience.
