Posting for traffic! You lovely mumsnet lot seem to always be in the know with these things!

Me and DH would like to treat ourselves to some new bedding.We want to buy a new 6ft duvet and also some lovely great quality bedding to go on it, that can preferably be tumble dried (but will settle without it). What sites are worth checking out? Any good sales on? I haven't shopped for this in years so would appreciate any suggestions!

Kelly Hoppen high thread count Egyptian cotton. You can buy from QVC and try for 60 days. I have a few sets and it's lasted amazingly well.

Try Terrys fabrics- online. Just bought a superkingsize duvet cover (RHS), fitted bottom sheet and 4 pillowcases for £76. All 100% cotton.
Lovely quality, ironed really easily and well.

Secret Linen Company. 100% linen, washes perfectly, paired with a wool duvet from the Devon duvet company, mattress topper with 100% Hungarian goose down, matching pillows, all on a superking bed. I’ve never slept so well! When the children sneak in you don’t even notice them!! You spend so much time in bed and sleep is so important. Don’t scrimp on it!!

White Company, especially in the sale. All white, so goes with everything and never goes out of fashion. Lasts for ages too.

But a bugger to iron though.

Dusk, White Company and IKEA are the ones we’ve had the longest, used the most but are still looking good.

M&S bedding is not the good quality it used to be.

sesquipedalian · 28/12/2024 19:20

I would agree with Perfectlystill about Dusk - really good quality and washes like a dream.

There’s a company called Linen Bundle. Their bedding is super luxurious. It’s not extortionate but far more expensive than the likes of Dunelm, Primark and Ikea - personally I’d class that as cheap bedding but depends how much you want to spend. You would totally know the difference between the likes of those and linen bundle.

I bought a second wool duvet from the wool room recent, so I now have a light for summer & warm for winter.
They are different to down or synthetic duvets - denser, the filling doesn't move & there is some weight to them.

I love them & have recommended them to several people.

Yes after buying a wool room duvet I could never sleep under anything else. They are so comfy!

We recently bought a wool duvet (winter weight) from costco, and I love it so much. It is heavier than our previous feather duvet and much more cosy. We will buy another one for summer.

Can't comment on duvet covers as I am in desperate need of some new ones. We are waiting until we re-decorate our bedroom.

I like H&M Home washed cotton. I'm not sure if they do fitted sheets, but certainly have duvet covers and pillow cases. Very subtle colours and soft.

Overtheatlantic · 28/12/2024 18:47

The White Company is gorgeous. Soft and washes well, lasts ages.

BigBoysDontCry · 28/12/2024 18:18

Dip and Doze. Spendy but not outrageous. Organic and lovely to sleep in, gets nicer the more it's washed. You can go for a crisp finish or softer. Also has a free trial. Not many options in terms of colour or style but I have plain white anyway.

CornishPorsche · 28/12/2024 18:16

Anything 100% cotton. Avoid polycotton - even expensive brands con you with that....
I have several Asda / Sainsbury's sets which are 100% cotton and have lasted for many years.

ShodAndShadySenators · 28/12/2024 18:11

Another fan of Dorma (Dunelm only) but I do think a lot of the patterns available are rather old fashioned, although there are some exceptions and plain colours as well. They're very soft and smooth and feel really expensive imo.

I've had M&S ones in the past and been impressed at the quality for the price as well. I have brushed cotton sets for the winter and it does give an extra layer of cosiness.

ThrillsAndSpills2025 · 28/12/2024 18:10

TKMaxx - bargainest high quality bedding and some gorgeous designs. Although you do have the usual scrummage and can't be sure what you'll find in there of course...

Another vote for Ikea brushed cotton bedding - I love ours so much, it's cosy and warm, washes really well, for the price it's well worth trying.

booisbooming · 28/12/2024 18:00

Habitat washes really well.

MissFritton65 · 28/12/2024 17:59

I've always been very pleased with Dorma bedding which is now sold in Dunelm.
