Get help deciding what to buy with our guides to the best mattresses and the best pillows. Duvet types explained Another solution is to opt for an 'all-season' duvet. This consists of two separate lighter tog duvets that can be joined together (usually by way of press studs) to make a warmer winter duvet. Most commonly an all-season duvet will include a 4.5 tog and 9 tog duvet that can create a 13.5 tog duvet once combined, or a 4.5 tog and 10.5 tog duvet that will create a warmer 15 tog combination. The highest tog duvet you can buy is usually 15 tog, although we have seen some all-season duvets (where two separate duvets of differing togs are combined into one warmer duvet) offering a combined warmth of up to 18 tog. Light yet warm and deliciously plump and cosy, there’s a reason this duvet has aced our tests and won the top spot, despite being expensive. It’s made from a high proportion of Hungarian goose down – 90 per cent down to 10 per cent feather – and you can really feel the quality of the down in its cloud-like softness. The down and feathers down are sourced from cruelty-free suppliers as a by-product of the food industry.

As proven by a number of other duvets on this list, down is expensive because it’s so difficult to obtain. Dreams has solved this by creating a polyester dupe, at a fraction of the cost. If you are allergic to feathers, you may want to opt for a synthetic duvet. These are usually filled with microfibre (a fine polyester yarn) or hollowfibre (which is very similar, but slightly warmer), but you may see them called, ‘soft as down’ or ‘down alternative.’

FAQs about your Snuggledown Scandinavian Hollowfibre duvet

There are other natural duvet fillings out there, including wool, which Casson says is rising in popularity, “because it’s breathable, it’s good for heat and regulates your body temperature so in the summer it keeps you cooler, and it’s natural and hypoallergenic.” Down is really very light,” says Emma Casson of The Bed Expert. “Feather-and-down is cheaper and a bit heavier – and some people like a bit more weight. Then you’ve got your synthetics, like microfibre. You can have really good quality synthetics nowadays. They’re really breathable.” Cons: Can be expensive, needs to be washed gently at a low temperature, can seem flat in comparison with other fillings Buy it if: you're looking for the very best duvet for a great night's sleep. This wool-filled duvet is an investment, but we've tried and tested some of the best winter duvets on the market, and in our opinion, this is the cream of the crop. It's the warmest we've come across, keeping our testers warm and toasty throughout the night without any of the overheating or night sweats that occurred with other high tog options. That's thanks to the naturally thermoregulating properties of wool that allow moisture to escape whilst still providing insulation. Handmade in Yorkshire using 100% traceable British Cheviot wool and certified organic cotton this is also a great eco-friendly option, with wool completely biodegradable.
