FAQs
What does 13.5 Tog mean?
Tog is a measure of thermal insulation. A higher tog rating indicates greater warmth. 13.5 Tog is considered a warm rating, suitable for colder temperatures and year-round use in most UK homes.
Is this duvet suitable for allergy sufferers?
The microfibre and synthetic filling are generally considered hypoallergenic, making it a good option for many allergy sufferers. However, always consult with a healthcare professional if you have severe allergies.
Can I use this duvet in summer?
A 13.5 Tog duvet may be too warm for very hot summer nights. It is best suited for cooler seasons. For summer, a lower tog duvet (around 4.5 Tog) is generally recommended.
How often should I wash my duvet?
It is generally recommended to wash your duvet every 6-12 months, or more frequently if needed. Spot clean minor spills as they occur.
What sizes are available?
The Downland Soft Touch range includes sizes such as Double, Super King, and King, with specific dimensions varying by size.
Does the duvet come with a cover?
No, this product is for the duvet itself. A separate duvet cover is required.
Troubleshooting
Duvet feels lumpy after washing
Ensure the duvet is thoroughly dried, preferably in a tumble dryer on a low setting with dryer balls or clean tennis balls to help break up clumps. If clumping persists, consider re-washing and drying.
Duvet feels too cool
For colder nights, layer additional blankets on top or consider using a warmer duvet. Ensure your room temperature is adequate.
Fabric feels rough after washing
Check that you are using a gentle cycle and the correct detergent. Avoid fabric softeners, which can sometimes affect the feel of microfibre. Ensure the duvet is completely dry.
