Two single instead of one double duvet experiences, please.

We've got a superking bed with 2 pairs of single Night Owl coverless duvets - summer weight & winter weight. We love them, so snuggly & no duvet theft going in in the middle of the night! Love the coverless duvets too, no more wrestling with the awful covers!

That’s my ultimate plan, GrammaH. ‘Duvet theft’ made me laugh. 😂

Hubby and I each have our own duvet. I prefer a wool insert and hubby is happy with a light synthetic fibre insert. Hubby sleeps with his feet sticking out, he is 6 foot 6, and I tuck my feet in. I also sleep with a top sheet. We have single matresses too, hubby's one being for a heavier person than mine.

I used singles on a kingsize bed when husband was ill. All tge meds made him sweat a lot needing bedding changed every day. Did find it easier to cope with all tge changes but never looked as nice as one duvet.

We bought two singles that zipped together with a single duvet each. When I left him - the man was a rat - I unzipped my half and took it with me. DH and I have a 5 foot bed with a king size quilt. Bliss. Problem with with single duvets is that there always seemed to be a gap in the middle of the bed and you can't snuggle cosily.

Well, I was totally tangled up in my quilt last night and what wasn’t wrapping itself round me was lurching towards the floor. . This may take some practise!

DH complains about always being cold - I am the opposite. This has worked well for us and no more quilt stealing either!

We have been using single duvets for a few years now. My DH is a duvet thief and I got fed up waking up cold in the middle of the night. Now we have our own duvets and can chose the tog. Doesn't stop us having cuddles and more, whenever we want. We always use matching duvet covers and I can change the bed all by myself now, if need be.

Separate duvets work best if one of you needs a warmer duvet and another one likes a cooler one. Great for those with hot flushes. But one large duvet is good in winter to keep each other warm if you both feel cold.
