FAQs
What makes this duvet 'Soft Like Down'?
The duvet uses specially engineered ultra-fine hollow fibres that mimic the lightness, loft, and soft texture of natural down without using any feathers.
Is this duvet suitable for people with allergies?
Yes, the synthetic hollowfibre filling is hypoallergenic, making it an excellent choice for individuals who are sensitive to natural down or feather fillings.
How often should I wash my duvet?
It is recommended to wash your duvet when it becomes visibly soiled or at least once or twice a year. Regular airing can help maintain freshness between washes.
What tog rating is this duvet suitable for?
This guide does not specify a tog rating. Please refer to the product packaging or manufacturer's website for the specific tog rating, which indicates its warmth level.
Can I use this duvet with an electric blanket?
No, it is not recommended to use this duvet with an electric blanket as it can interfere with the filling's properties and potentially pose a safety risk.
What is the cover made of?
The cover is made from a silky microfibre, which is designed to be soft against the skin and enhance the overall comfort of the duvet.
How do I ensure the duvet dries completely after washing?
Always tumble dry on a low heat setting. It may require multiple cycles. Ensure the duvet is completely dry before putting it back on the bed to prevent mildew. Adding dryer balls can help speed up the drying process.
Troubleshooting
Duvet feels flat or lost its loft
Gently shake the duvet to redistribute the filling. If the issue persists after washing and drying, ensure it was fully dried and consider tumble drying on a low heat with dryer balls to help fluff the filling.
Duvet feels lumpy
Lumps can form if the filling has shifted. Try to gently separate any clumps by hand or tumble dry on a low heat with dryer balls to help break them up and even out the filling.
Not warm enough
This duvet is designed for moderate warmth and breathability. For colder nights, consider layering with an additional blanket or using a duvet with a higher tog rating.
Duvet takes a long time to dry
Hollowfibre filling can retain moisture. Ensure you use a low heat setting and allow ample time for drying. It may require multiple drying cycles. Placing it in a large dryer with dryer balls can significantly speed up the process.
