Duvets are basically body
warmers made of fabrics. They come in various sizes, tog ratings, fillings,
styles, textures, etc. depending on their manufacturer. It is important to have
a good understanding of duvets in order to make an informed decision at the
point of purchase.
Tog rating is a duvet’s
level of warmth i.e. how well a duvet gives out warmth and regulates body
temperature. It is not an indication of beauty, rather of functionality. Some
duvets are just pretty, but they can’t keep out the cold effectively so, if you
buy a duvet based on aesthetics alone, then you won’t gain the desired warmth,
e.g. a duvet made from Arabian silk will be very pretty but may not insulate
properly.
Below are suitable tog
ratings:
4.5 tog - suitable for
warm weather
10.5 tog - suitable for
fine weather
12 - 13.5 tog - suitable
for cold weather
It is very important to
choose the right tog rate for your sleeping condition.
