Buy Bed Comforters Online

Before we explain what is in a bed comforter set in India, it is imperative to know what comforters are and what they are made of. Traditionally, a comforter is a type of bed linen that has two pieces of cloth sewn together with a filling of insulating material. You can fill it with silk or cotton padding, wool, polyester or down feathers. Comforters should be paired with a sheet set to keep you warm and cozy all night. Your choice of comforter depends on how warm you want to be while asleep. If you live somewhere cold, a down comforter will be a suitable choice but if you live somewhere warm, a lightweight cotton comforter will be a good option.

Imagine being tucked into bed with a comforter that brings with it a good night’s sleep. A good quality comforter is a must during those chilly winter weeks! Comforters in India are more popular in mildly cold regions because they maintain the perfect temperature to keep you pleasantly warm. You can even use bed comforter sets in the monsoon when the nights get cold and breezy. Bed comforter sets are neither too heavy nor too light.

1. • Fill Power - Fill power is a numeric value related to the quality of the down feathers used in the comforter. The higher the fill power, the larger and better quality of the down used. Higher fill power also tells you how fluffier, lighter, more breathable and warmer is the comforter. The most expensive down will generally have a fill power of over 700 cubic inches, while a lower quality down will be less than 400 fill power. An average comforter will have a rating of about 500 cubic inches.
2. • Quality of Feathers - The breathability and comfort you enjoy from a down comforter cannot be replicated by using synthetic materials. When it comes to choosing a down comforter, you need to check for the down clusters where each cluster has a three-dimensional structure that traps air and keeps you warm. High quality down is collected from the underbelly of a mature duck or goose since feathers from young birds have a poor fill power. The colours of the feather do not affect quality.
3. • Construction and Design - The structure and design of a comforter play a crucial role in determining how the warmth is distributed throughout the comforter. For instance, if you choose a down comforter, it will need a system to keep the down in place so that you stay warm and comfortable all night long. Common comforter designs are baffle box, diamond box and box design - all ensure that down does not get clumped or shifted to the corners. A baffle-box (baffle - a material running perpendicular inside a comforter and creating boxes from top to bottom that holds the feathers in place) will secure the down in place.
4. • Size and Weight - For a bed comforter set to be categorized as comfortable, it has to be the perfect weight to suit the temperatures and has to be the right size for your bed. Ideally, a comforter is designed to fall three-quarters of the way over the edges of a bed. You should also measure the comforter to ensure it will fit inside the cover. A light-weight comforter is for someone who feels slightly warm at night. A regular-weight comforter will be ideal for someone who loves to snuggle in bed and derives comfort from the warmth. Lastly, summer-weight comforters are meant for warmer climates.
5. • Material - The thread count in a comforter refers to the number of threads per square inch of fabric. A higher thread count will be a tightly woven fabric which is softer and cozier than one with a lower thread count. Any material with a thread count of over 400 is considered a luxury. If you want a more affordable choice, go for a comforter with a thread count of 250-400. You also have to consider the material used to make the barrier weave ( stops the down from slipping out of your comforter). A tightly-woven barrier weave will mute the sound of feathers moving inside and keep your comforter in perfect condition.

Bed comforters are often spread over the main bed sheet and sometimes come with their own covers with buttons, zip or a tie. If you want to buy comforters online, pick the ones that come with a well-packed comforter set because it has multiple benefits. Comforters are called with different names in different countries - in the UK, they are called eiderdowns or quilts (however, the make may be different in those regions). A typical comforter set contains a comforter and two pillow shams. The premium ones include a bedskirt, extra decorative shams and several throw pillows. A bed-in-a-bag is different from a comforter set. It includes fitted sheets, pillowcases, a comforter cover and sometimes, a bedskirt.

Both have the same structure, but quilts are layered blankets stitched together using cloth pieces from different fabrics in their most fundamental properties. It creates unique and colourful patterns. On the other hand, comforters have a thick filling of insulating material stuffed between two pieces of cloth. Quilts have been used traditionally to commemorate special occasions since they were considered prized objects of possession. Comforters were used in colonial times to cover the bed decoratively, but now they are also used for warmth and comfort. Both quilts and comforters are ideally larger than the mattress size to allow it to fall over the edge and stay in place throughout your slumber.

When it comes to differentiating between these bed linens, you must know that duvets and comforters are essentially one and the same thing. Both are filled with down, feathers, or synthetic fibers, will keep you warm, and come in an array of fun solid colours, fashionable prints, and premium fabrics.

Ideally, a single comforter can last you for 4-5 years. It serves the purpose well if you do not experience harsh winters. Using two comforters interchangeably is a good idea if you like change. The advantage with comforters is that their care and storage is manageable as compared to most blankets. Taking care of quilts is an extensive process but they can famously survive for generations in a family. Comforters have a smaller lifespan but their care and wash is less hectic than that of quilts. Using fabric conditioners and fabric softeners on either quilts or comforters is a strict no, because their fibres are delicate. Expert tips on the care of bed linen is available on the SPACES blog.

1. 1. Wash and dry your comforter in front-loading commercial machines while using cold water with mild detergent.
2. 2. Never use bleach or fabric softener on your comforter
3. 3. Tip: Tennis balls, a clean pair of sneakers, or wool dryer balls help distribute the fill more evenly
4. 4. Do not iron your comforter
5. 5. Do not use do-it-yourself cleaners. Instead, have it professionally dry cleaned only by a reputable dry cleaner.
6. 6. Ensure that your comforter is dry and clean before storing it. A damp comforter can result in mould and mildew growth.
7. 7. Just like bedsheets and pillowcases, comforters need to be folded and stored neatly in a closet with sufficient airflow.
8. 8. Do not store your comforter in plastic because it doesn’t allow the comforter to breathe.
