While buying duvets, you should set tog rating as
an important parameter. Tog rating is an important factor for measuring the
warmth of a duvet. Higher the tog factor, warmer the duvet is. You can choose
from the following tog factors:-
- 4.5 Tog:- It is used in warmer days and in places having hotter climate round the year.
- 7.5 Tog:- This is relatively heavier than the 4.5 Tog, but is also for warmer temperatures.
- 10.5 Tog:- This is of medium thickness. So, it is to be used in spring or autumn or houses with central heating.
- 13.5Tog:- This is the warmest of all. You can use this in the winter months or if your bedroom maintains extremely low temperatures.
Another important factor that you
should keep in mind while buying goose feather and down duvet is the fill
factor. It is the volume occupied by the filling. It denotes the thermal
efficiency. Higher the filing power, greater is the efficiency of the duvet.
The fill power should ideally vary from 345 gsm (grams per square meter) to 750
gsm.
Depending upon the size of your bed,
you can choose from the following dimensions:-
- Single:- 135x 200 cm
- Double:- 200x 200 cm
- Kingsize:- 230x220cm
- Super King Size:- 260x220cm
- Emperor Size:- 290x235cm
You are always suggested to buy a
duvet bigger than the size of your bed. Otherwise, people end up fighting over
the duvets.
Double duvets are not always meant
for double beds or two persons. People sleeping alone in a single bed also
prefer to use double duvets for better area of coverage and better wrapping.
For children, use thinner duvets.
Warmer and thicker ones are not recommended for them. For babies and toddler,
you can buy cot and cot bed duvets from the nursery departments of the duvet
