FAQs
What does 13.5 tog mean?
Tog is a measure of thermal insulation. A 13.5 tog rating indicates a high level of warmth, making it suitable for colder climates and winter use.
Can I use this duvet all year round?
This duvet is specifically designed for winter due to its 13.5 tog rating. For warmer seasons, you might find it too hot and would benefit from a lighter tog duvet (e.g., 4.5 or 7.5 tog).
Is this duvet suitable for children?
While it's hypoallergenic, it's important to ensure the room temperature is safe for children. For infants, always consult safe sleep guidelines regarding appropriate bedding.
How often should I wash my duvet?
It's generally recommended to wash your duvet every 2-3 months, or more frequently if you have allergies or the duvet becomes soiled. Always follow the care instructions.
What is the difference between hollowfibre and other fillings?
Hollowfibre filling contains small air pockets within the fibres, which enhances its insulating properties while keeping it lightweight and lofty compared to solid fibres or down.
Can I use bleach on this duvet?
No, bleach is not recommended as it can damage the fibres and affect the color and integrity of the duvet. Use a mild detergent as per the care instructions.
What are the dimensions of the King Size duvet?
The King Size duvet measures 220cm x 230cm.
Troubleshooting
Duvet feels flat or less lofty
Ensure the duvet is completely dry after washing. If damp, tumble dry on low heat again, shaking periodically. Allow it to air out for a day.
Allergic reaction persists
While hypoallergenic, ensure regular high-temperature washing (60°C) to eliminate dust mites and allergens effectively. Check bedding for other potential allergens.
Duvet is too warm
This 13.5 tog duvet is designed for winter. For warmer months, consider using a lower tog duvet or using this duvet with the cover only in cooler transitional periods.

Care Instructions:
