Duvet vs. Comforter: Which One Is Best for You?
"Duvet versus comforter? Even AD editors have to ponder which cover to choose for their own beds. At first glance, a duvet insert and a comforter look like one type of bedding. And, in a way, they do serve a very similar function-to keep you comfortable and warm throughout the night. But if you take a closer look, these two covers have important differences that need to be considered before you purchase one or the other for your bedroom."
"What Is a Duvet Cover? Think of a duvet cover as a gift wrapping for the duvet insert, a type of specialty blanket that comes in different materials and weights. If you turn a duvet cover inside out you will see that each corner will have something to help secure the insert, which will likely have stitched loops on each corresponding corner."
A duvet is a plain insert designed to be used with a removable duvet cover, while a comforter is a standalone bedding piece, usually quilted and made from decorative fabric. A duvet cover acts like gift wrapping and typically includes corner ties that secure to corresponding loops on the insert to prevent shifting; some covers use multiple snap closures. Popular duvet-cover materials include cotton, linen, and bamboo viscose. Choosing between a duvet and a comforter hinges on whether frequent changes to bed appearance are desired and whether a removable, easy-to-wash outer layer is preferred.
