Down alternative duvets are really hot.

We love our all seasons wool duvets and mattrress topper. They are perfect, whatever the weather, and the topper had taken comfort to a new level. Devon Duvets use local wool, all chemical free, and we have both slept better.

We've just bought a bamboo king size duvet. It's the summer one and replaces our down duvet that we had for ten years. This one is lovely and I'll get the winter one later in the year.

I’ve got M&S “Soft as down” duvets and much prefer them to the down one I used to have- so lovely and lightweight yet warm.- they come in various tog weights. Guests always comment on the one on our spare bed!

Yes, we have a King size “Soft as Down” duvet from M and S and I love it! Lightweight, but warm if needed. I shall get a 10.5 one in the winter.

We’ve got a wool one from Baavet. Light and warm, just right.

How do you go on washing and drying a wool duvet? I imagine they take a long while to dry.

Why not replace like for like?

A couple of years ago my down one was in need of a change, so I thought I’d try a synthetic fibre one. I was and am thrilled to bits. No hesitation in continuing to replace the others.

Have you considered a wool one? I bought a wool mattress cover and have been very pleased with it.

I have always loved my goose feather and down duvet. I love its weight and the way its never too hot or too cold. However, It is time for a new one and I am looking for a feather alternative. Can anybody recommend a duvet that is luxurious, slightly weighty and feels a lot like a feather duvet? I'm looking fit 13.5 tog.
