Which quilt is right for me?

This depends on your preferences and personal situation. For instance: if you feel cold quickly, you need a different quilt from someone who sweats quickly. You can also choose between a single or double quilt.The heat requirement differs from one person to another. The quilts are divided according to the thickness (heat) of the quilt.

  • 9 cm thick. These are the warmest quilts and are especially suitable for cold bedrooms or if you are particularly sensitive to cold.
  • 6 cm thick. They are the demi-season quilts and are used by most people during spring and autumn.
  • 3 cm thick. These quilts are suitable for moderate heat in the bedroom and are perfect for moderately cold winters and cooler summers.

For what season is my quilt suitable?

There are quilts for different seasons, you can choose between a winter quilt, a summer quilt or a 4 seasons quilt

  • The 4 seasons quilt is the customers favourite. It is composed of a level 3 quilt for summer and a level 6 for mid-season. These two bedspreads can be joined together for an extra thickness in winter
  • The Summer quilt is light, perfect for areas where it cools down at night and needs something more than a sheet.
  • The springtime quilt is too hot for the summer months, but not warm enough for areas with cold winters.

How do I choose the correct size?

This choice also depends on your preferences. If you and your partner have different preferences, of course you can use our dual system. If you prefer a single quilt, the standard size for an individual quilt is 150 cm wide. Double quilts are usually supplied in 240 cm wide.

The quilt may fall slightly on the edge of the bed. We recommend that you keep an additional margin of 40 to 60 centimeters. For instance: for a 180 cm wide bed it is advisable to buy a 240 cm wide quilt. The length of the quilt varies depending on the bed, there are 200 cm and 220 cm.
