FAQs
What is the TOG rating and what does it mean?
The TOG rating indicates the thermal insulation of the duvet. A 10.5 TOG is considered a mid-range rating, suitable for year-round use in most UK climates, offering a balance of warmth and breathability.
How do I care for my Merino Wool duvet?
It's best to hand wash or use a gentle wool cycle with a wool-specific detergent in cold water. Avoid tumble drying; instead, air dry flat. Regular airing is recommended over frequent washing.
Is Merino wool good for allergies?
Yes, Merino wool is naturally hypoallergenic. Its fine fibers are less likely to trigger allergies compared to coarser wools, and it effectively wicks away moisture, reducing the environment for dust mites.
What is the GSM of the filling?
The filling has a GSM (Grams per Square Meter) of 500g, which contributes to its plushness and insulating properties.
Can I use this duvet in summer?
Due to its natural temperature-regulating properties, many users find this duvet comfortable year-round, including summer. The breathable cotton cover and wool's ability to wick moisture help prevent overheating.
What are the dimensions of the duvet?
The duvet dimensions are subject to a tolerance of +/-5cm from the stated size. Please refer to specific product listings for exact size information.
What is the difference between this and a synthetic duvet?
Natural wool and cotton fillings are generally more breathable and better at temperature regulation than synthetic alternatives. They are also biodegradable and naturally hypoallergenic.
Troubleshooting
Duvet feels lumpy
Gently shake and fluff the duvet to redistribute the filling. If machine washed, ensure it was on a gentle cycle and not overloaded. Air dry completely.
Duvet cover doesn't fit perfectly
Duvets have a +/-5cm size tolerance. Try a slightly larger duvet cover or ensure the corners of the duvet are properly aligned within the cover.
Duvet smells musty after storage
Air the duvet outdoors in a well-ventilated, shaded area for several hours. Do not expose to direct sunlight for extended periods.
Wool filling seems compressed
The 500GSM filling provides significant insulation. Gently fluff the duvet to regain loft. Avoid high heat drying which can damage wool fibers.
