A duvet is when you put your comforter into a pillow case. Got it.

[@maddieholt383]

Randal Alan Smith fr, I just came here to find out WHY people do that

[@Gelliny]

@@maddieholt383 thats so you just need to wash the "pillowcase". Much easier.

[@maddieholt383]

Bianca Helena Procopio but what about putting it back on? Seems more difficult than just washing and drying a comforter lol

[@Gelliny]

@@maddieholt383 I don't know about you but I find washing a comforter too tiring and not very practical. It takes too much space usually I need to wash it by itself, its so bulky. Where the cover I can just easily wash and takes so little space. But I think it's more about personal preference since you seem to think washing the comforter as easy haha

[@djg5950]

@@hornychristiangirl Yes, or they come with a separate filling piece. The guy explains it pretty clearly. Watch the part where he shows that some duvets now come with ties so they can be tied onto a comforter. Reason for them is so that you don't have to wash the comforter (bulky and sometimes down filled = special care in washing) as often. Remove the duvet and wash that. It's like a super large pillow case.

In germany you have a duvet with a cover which you sleep under and you change that cover every week. And about 50% of people will have a comforter on top of the duvet that stays there all the time and usally matches the room decor. The second opition is also often used for the beds of married couples since each person gets their own duvet and having a comforter that covers everything on top makes it look neater and more coherent.

[@chrstiania]

bist du sicher, dass du "comforter" meinst? ein comforter ist nämlich auch eine dicke Bettdecke.

[@convenienceandpracticality9032]

I was just talking about doing this (2nd option for married couples) with my husband. So when you sleep at night do you keep the comforter over both of you or do you just take it off the bed then put it back on during the day?

[@hipsepipse]

@@convenienceandpracticality9032 I believe my parents usally take it off. This means that it needs to be washed less regularly and they can have prettier comforters.

I'm danish, and always wondered why Americans sleep like they do, under one/a "blanket" it seems, so I googled it, and ended up here 😀 In Denmark everyone (as far as I know) has a comforter/duvet, and then has several covers for them, which they wash/change approximately once a week. I don't know anyone who doesn't use covers, it feels wierd, and kinda unhygienic not to, and they come in all kinds of fabrics. A cotton/satin blend is best, if you ask me 😀 We don't wash the comforters itself as often as the covers, but when we do, we use tennisballs in the dryer, to avoid the filling getting all clumped up. You can buy one large comforter to share (or not 😀), but most people have their own one person comforter, even when co-sleeping with their significant other, just because it's more comfortable that way, and it's definitely much nicer to not wake up under a wet comforter, if you have a partner that sweats when they're sleeping 😀 I personally prefer to sleep on the side, roll up one comforter, and well spoon it 😁, and then I have a second comforter on top of me. Not sure anyone needed this information, but now you have it, you're welcome! 😁

Coming from the UK we use the term duvet as they do almost everywhere in Europe. I'd never heard of a comforter until I moved to the US..... for me they're both the same, you can use them interchangeably with or without a (duvet) cover depending on style & also duvets come the tog ratings that determine the warmth they offer.

Well, if you all are coming to Northern Europe, especially Scandinavia and Finland, a duvet is mandatory in a regular bed making. Like, there is no other option except for a duvet. A comforter, what is that really? I mean, here we have a blanket (well, mainly we use these in the living room couch) OR a duvet in our bed stores, comforter is not existing here. Same probably goes for the rest of Europe, we don't primary use the layer type of bedding that is common in America. Most European hotels don't offer comforters, we have 9 of 10 duvets. Some said that American use comforters because of the climate, in very hot nights you often just want a blanket and a flat sheet. I always wondered why American beds often has several layers of fabric...

[@douloureux.]

Yeah i think only north america uses comforters. Havent seen it anywhere in europe. They all have AC too so they can lay underneath a lot of layers in the summer hahaha

A lot of bed sheet sets in America come with a comforter which is basically a big fluffy blanket, often they come with a cover sewn onto it with patterns or a design or something. They’re made to be able to he washed at home (unless they’re the very fancy kinds like he is describing in the video)

[@mesonichue6198]

In the USA we use a sheet over the mattress then a sheet on top of our body, then a blanket, then a comforter(or a quilt in winter because the quilts grandma’s make are to heavy for summer). My exchange students from Czech Republic and China were like what is this sheet for(the top sheet ). Well, a protective layer to keep the rest clean so we don’t have to wash the blanket and comforter so often. Plus sliding in a nicely made bed with smooth sheets is amazing compared to just crawling under a blanket. Some hotels in the USA use a duvet over the comforter for easy cleaning. That only started in the past ten to 15 years. There used to be a ‘bedspread’ instead of a comforter(in a huge pillow case,lol, I mean duvet). Bedspreads are old fashioned. There would be a bottom sheet, top sheet, a blanket(or two in winter) and then A bedspread is the decorative top layer but a bedspread also hangs to the floor on both sides and the foot of the bed.

@@sschrute910 so you wash your comforter every week? 🤔 well, I guess the prices are different too, where I'm from a good comforter cost a minimum of 100$ and you can get a duvet cover + pillow cases in good quality for around 12$, so..... yeah. And no, I've never gotten them confused, and duvet covers aren't hard to change at all 🤭

[@sschrute910]

@@BellaCW no when i said towels i was referring to the weight of a wet comforter right out of the washing machine. idk what part of washing it is hard for you so i assumed that. and yes in the us u can get a nice comforter for $60 and duvet covers range from $40-60 for me. duvet covers take much more work than a comforter that you simply lay on your bed. maybe your used to it so it doesn’t seem hard for you but for someone who never has before it’s a lot of unnecessary work.

[@BellaCW]

@@sschrute910 Still seems unhygienic 🤨 I like clean crisp sheets that are washed every week to minimize the risk of bedbugs and shit, but each to their own. You do you I guess. 🤷‍♀️

Im just going to say "Thanks" This video needed to exist. No big deal otherwise. Keep doing your dooing.

[@Mattressclarity]

Thanks, will do!

Do you know what a Duvet is? - Its a Comforter ? - It’s a blanket. Just a blanket. Now why do guys like you and me know what a duvet is? Is this essential to our survival, in the hunter-gatherer sense of the word? No. What are we then? - We are consumers.

[@yancuicrodriguez1913]

Alright Tyler

[@kiikiinpiink]

I needed this video I was like what us a duvet and why it gotta zipper and etc... shopping online

[@Mattressclarity]

I hope it helped!

[@lisaterracinarosenberg4102]

Actually a Comforter and a Duvet are the SAME THING. A Duvet Cover is like a giant pillowcase that covers the duvet or comforter.

[@m.r5039]

Well a duvet is also more fluffy and warmer than a comforter since you always have some kind of feathers in your duvet filling (inner piece) a comforter is more like a thick normal blanket that you use in front of tv ect. The comforter is in one piece and the duvet has a filling which is the actual duvet and then his so called duvet comes over that, some kind of duvetcase. If you are allergic like me you defently need a duvet because you need some extra cover in between the filling and the actual duvet to contain the dust ect in. You also need to wash your duvet really hot to kill of that microorganisms that is not always possible with comforters. As he said you can’t really easy wash comforters as they are one piece.

[@bperez8656]

Exactly! Ppl who are saying they are the same are nuts

[@dawndubsky4641]

Yes, this is how it's done. A comforter usually comes in those sets in the store or have designs already printed on the comforter itself. You would probably put a blanket under it for warmth like mom did. Sure you can use a duvet "cover" over it to change your decor. In France a "duvet" only applies to white, thick, down-filled quilted covers that are extremely warm. Any other filling is a "couette" but looks the same. Since they are white, you buy a duvet cover...for change of bedroom design, cleanliness, whatever. I live in France and bring comforters from the US because duvets/couettes are so hot I spend all night kicking them on and off even in winter.

[@Mattressclarity]

Hey Dawn! It's interesting all the different terms and sleeping styles you see around the world.

[@MizzDiamondBug]

Thank you so much for explaining the difference I had a hard time figuring out what a duvet was .

[@kauigirl808]

I just washed everything and slipped my comforter in the duvet. I'm tired lol. No idea why this was in my newsfeed.

[@madiola1234]

my duvet has hutterite down ...the most comfortable and light but warm duvet in the world..well worth the investment

[@adacotto8677]

Finally!!! Thank you!

[@Mattressclarity]

Haha, no problem!

[@haniebrown8876]

They're all easy and hard at the same time.... but we can go with all options. Thx for the upload

[@christeenn.]

why can’t I put my down comforter in a duvet cover. I like easy cleaning too.

[@iovesh]

You can... that's what I do! really easy to clean plus the comforter is a little heavier than a duvet so it won't move inside the cover or clump up randomly

[@courtneydesimone9706]

I have a duvet and recently bought a blue comforter to go inside it, my duvet cover came with a set except the blanket and fitted sheet, I plan on using the duvet as a blanket once I get everything washed so I can have a matching look on my bed

[@Mattressclarity]

That's a great way to do it! Let us know how it works out.

[@ohnellgalon7056]

I prefer duvet lol !!! I can change into diff. Sheets .. 😍

[@Kyshalise]

This is the actually most helpful info I’ve found

[@donicaburley9163]

I asked the question out loud a few hours ago "what the hell is a duvet?" while looking for comforters online and now this pops up in my recommended, not crazy about being kept tabs on... but oh well I did need to know.

[@Mattressclarity]

Haha. I hope it helped!

[@lawrencep.3896]

Is the comforter still considered a comforter if you use a duvet cover with it, or will it become a duvet at this point?

[@justletmecommentffs]

I hate duvets so much because mine always end up bunched down the bottom of the cover. That shit drives me mad. Comforter squad for sure

[@JS-ys2uk]

You are supposed to tie your insert to the duvet cover

[@FashionCandyTV]

Corner ties?

[@mariahpotter2848]
