FAQs
What does a 10.5 tog rating mean?
A tog rating measures the thermal insulation of a duvet. 10.5 is considered a medium-weight rating, suitable for most people throughout spring, autumn, and milder winter nights. It provides warmth without being excessively hot.
How should I wash this duvet?
You can machine wash the duvet at 30°C. It's important to use a large-capacity washing machine to ensure the duvet can move freely and be cleaned effectively.
How do I dry the duvet after washing?
Tumble dry the duvet on a normal setting until it is completely dry. Ensure it is fully dried to prevent clumping of the filling.
Is the filling ethically sourced?
Yes, the duck feather and down filling is ethically sourced and undergoes a rigorous cleaning process to ensure purity and quality.
What is the advantage of cassette box stitching?
Cassette box stitching creates individual compartments that keep the filling evenly distributed. This prevents cold spots and clumping, ensuring consistent warmth across the entire duvet.
Can I use this duvet in the summer?
The 10.5 tog rating is generally suitable for cooler summer nights or in rooms that don't get too warm. If you tend to sleep hot or live in a very warm climate, you might prefer a lighter tog duvet for summer.
How often should I maintain the duvet's fluffiness?
It is recommended to shake the duvet regularly to maintain its natural loft and fluffiness, and to ensure the filling remains evenly distributed.
Troubleshooting
Duvet feels flat or less fluffy after washing
Shake the duvet vigorously and thoroughly. Tumble dry on a low heat setting with dryer balls or clean tennis balls to help restore loft.
Filling is clumping or unevenly distributed
Gently massage the duvet to redistribute the filling. Ensure the duvet is completely dry after washing, as moisture can cause clumping. Regular shaking will also help prevent this.
Feathers are escaping from the cover
This is uncommon due to the down-proof construction. If it occurs, ensure the duvet cover is intact and not excessively worn. A duvet cover also helps contain any minor escapees.
Duvet feels too warm or too cool
The 10.5 tog is designed for balanced warmth. For warmer seasons, consider using a lighter tog duvet. For colder seasons, add a blanket on top. Ensure your room temperature is also conducive to comfortable sleep.
