The best all-season duvets
Prefer more choice? We've also found the best duvets overall, as well as the best summer duvets and best winter duvets if you typically run more hot or cold.
What is an all-season duvet?
There are a few different types of all-season duvet, but our favourite style here at the GHI is the three-in-one design. These are made up of two layers – one lighter tog duvet and one heavier tog – that can be used separately or fastened together, offering the best of both worlds.
The tog count refers to a duvet's thermal rating – the higher the tog, the warmer it is. A 3-in-1 duvet will usually combine a lighter (approx. 4.5 tog) summer duvet with a heavier option (around 10.5 togs or above). Adding them together means you get maximum warmth for winter, and you can also enjoy flexibility throughout the rest of the year – something that’s much needed with unpredictable UK weather. This makes them great value for money, too.
If you’re tight on storage space, or just want one duvet, some brands also sell 7 - 10.5 tog quilts that should see you through most weather – head to our round-up of the best duvets if that's what you're after, as there are several in our list.
Which tog duvet do I need for each season?
For those warmer summer months, we recommend anything that’s around 4.5 togs or below.
If you're after something super cosy for winter, anything around 13.5 togs should keep you nice and warm. If your room is a little on the colder side, you could even go all the way up to a 15 tog, or pair with one of our experts' best electric blankets or a best weighted blanket, which are designed to feel like ‘a warm hug’.
For the rest of the year, when it’s not too hot or too cold, anything between seven to 10.5 togs should be just right.
The beauty of an all-seasons duvet is you can usually get all that in one purchase.
How to care for your all-seasons duvet
Before you pack away the summer or winter layer of your all-seasons duvet, it’s important to wash it beforehand, referring to our expert's advice on how to wash bedding. This keeps it fresh and prevents any dust mites from gathering.
Always check the manufacturer's instructions for guidance, but many duvets can be washed at home in the machine. Some washing machines even come with a duvet programme. But, if you're struggling to fit it in the drum and it doesn't have space to move around in the wash, we suggest taking it to a specialist dry cleaner instead.
How we test duvets
We send each duvet to our at-home testers so they can sleep with it for a few weeks before giving detailed feedback on how it performed. We want to know if it’s comfortable, high quality and breathable.
We also test them extensively in-house at the GHI, with every duvet meticulously inspected for quality. We measure them and check this against the brand’s claims. They then go through the brands’ recommended wash and dry cycles, before being inspected again for any changes to the size, appearance and distribution of filling.
