I don’t iron duvet covers I just don’t see the point in ironing bedding it never looks creased after it’s spread over the duvet and I use fitted sheets so the pull brings out any creases as Humberbear says too much else to do

Marks and Spencer have lots.

We have cream cotton ones from JL which do need ironing. However, I fold them into four and just iron the top and bottom sides. After one night's sleep they look as though they have been slept in any way!

My duvet covers are poly/cotton. I never iron them and after a night's sleep any creases have vanished.

I don’t understand why anyone wants a white duvet cover and life is definitely too short to iron one!

I have a cotton seersucker one from John Lewis that doesn’t need ironing if I am careful how I dry it. I’m not sure whether JL still stock it though.

I iron our cotton ones - but the pleasure of getting into a bed with freshly ironed cotton covers is well worth it!

Thank you all!
Looks like it’s back to the ironing board.

I have lovely thick white high thread Egyptian cotton duvet covers with matching pillowcases from Wilko of all places, but they do need ironing.

I have pure cotton white covers, high thread count - they always need ironing.

In the January sales I bought a good hotel quality white king size cotton quilt cover from Home Sense. (Tkmaxx family)
It required ironing after removing from the package.

I have not used the cover as yet so jury is out how much ironing it will require.

A polyester cotton mix would probably require less ironing than pure cotton.

I want to buy a white duvet cover with a good cotton content and ideally no ironing! Can anyone advise please.
