How to Choose the Right Duvet Size: A Guide to a Cozy Night’s Sleep

When it comes to choosing the perfect duvet size, it’s easy to get overwhelmed by the numerous options available. But don’t worry, we’re here to help! In this article, we’ll provide you with a comprehensive guide on how to choose the right duvet size for your bed, ensuring a cozy and comfortable night’s sleep.

Measure Your Bed

Before we dive into the world of duvets, it’s essential to measure your bed. Take out your tape measure and note down the width and length of your bed, including any mattresses or toppers. This will give you a clear idea of what size duvet you need.

Consider Your Sleeping Style

Your sleeping style plays a significant role in determining the right duvet size for you. Do you sleep on your side, back, or stomach? If you’re a side sleeper, you’ll want a larger duvet to keep your body warm and comfortable. If you’re a back sleeper, a smaller duvet might be sufficient. And if you’re a stomach sleeper, you’ll want a duvet that’s snug but not too tight.

The Standard Rule

When choosing the size of your duvet, it’s a good to consider that it should be about 30-40 cm wider than the bed’s width on both sides. If the mattress is thicker than 20 cm, it’s a good rule to choose a duvet that is wider than the mattress, taking into account twice the thickness of the mattress on both duvets’ sides.

When choosing the length of the duvet, a good rule of thumb is to choose a duvet that is 0-20 cm longer than the mattress. For king size beds, the length of the duvet can be up to 40 cm longer than your bed.

More Coverage or Extra Roominess?

However, if you prefer a snug fit or extra roominess, you can adjust the size accordingly. If you prefer a snug fit, opt for a duvet that’s about 5-10% larger than the bed. If you prefer extra roominess, go for a duvet that’s about 20-25% larger than the bed.

Duvet Size Options

To simplify your decision even further, you can refer to the size chart here (setja inn link á size chart sem er á shopping síðunni), where you can see which duvet size fits your bed size. The duvet size is the same size as for the duvet cover size. If you can’t find the exact size of your bed on the chart, you can find the one that comes closest to your bed size or you can go for customized size.

Additional Factors to Consider

When choosing the right duvet size, don’t forget to consider these additional factors:

Mattress thickness: If you have a thicker mattress or topper, you may want to consider a larger duvet.

Pillows and pillows: If you have multiple pillows or use large pillows, you may want to consider a larger duvet.

Body type: If you’re petite or have a smaller body type, you may prefer a smaller duvet. If you’re larger or prefer more coverage, you may want to opt for a larger duvet.

Conclusion

Choosing the right duvet size may seem daunting, but with these tips and guidelines, you’ll be well on your way to finding the perfect fit for your bed. Remember to measure your bed, consider your sleeping style, and adjust the size accordingly. By taking these factors into account, you’ll be guaranteed a cozy and comfortable night’s sleep.
