HOW MUCH for a duvet?!!

My husband would spill a mug of tea on it within a week

Oh dear indeed. 😐

Well now, in the unlikely event I suddenly acquire great wealth you have just convinced me that buying one of these would be an honourable environmental and social contribution. With so many charities losing the plot with regard to their original aims and being tarred with scandal (looking at you Oxfam) I’d far rather support a small scale ethical environmental business like this.

My only concern is that they may be too warm? My current duvet is Hungarian goose down, John Lewis, about 15 years old, I think it cast about £200 which I thought very extravagant and it’s 13 or 13.5 tog. We live in quite a cold old cottage so it’s lovely and cosy but on milder nights I have to stick my feet out.

Of course it cost over 10k ....did you not see the part where it said it was weaved out of solid gold and each ruby and diamond placed around the edge was carefully stitched in by blind nuns?

(Hoping people have watched friends to understand the nuns but lol!)

And the duvet is stitched in patterns of tiny little ducklings waddling after each other and Mummy Duck.

We need a 😮 react emoji!

WTAF?!!! Surely that's a typo! 😲

I'm wondering how much te people who bought it spent on their mattresses. Surely the mattress is more important for a great night's sleep than the duvet.

I'm guessing 20k and probably handmade in a Himalayan monastery.

Its no typo, Google Eiderdown duvet and see what prices you find.
JL is bog standard high street for them....i found one at £30k last night

I wonder if this is some kind of elaborate 'Emporers New Clothes' type wind up? They're selling things that are worth no more than £100, but they're having a laugh and seeing if anyone is green enough and daft enough to pay £10K to £12K for a DUVET... By pretending the feathers are from cute fluffy Icelandic ducklings, and the feathers take 3 years to source each one, and all the time and effort that goes into it (combined with how ETHICAL it all it is) makes it worth £10K to £12K. 😆

I am smelling an April Fool's prank in the making here. Coz even if I had 10 million quid I wouldn't spend that much on a fecking duvet! £100 tops for me. And you can bet anyone who is prepared to pay £10K for a duvet will just HAVE to tell everyone about it, because the type of people who would spend this kind of money on a DUVET are showy, and braggy, and they value only material goods.

Not appealing traits at all. And I am willing to bet these duvets are not worth the money. They are just seeing of anyone is daft enough to pay the money!

And don't even get me started on the duvet priced at £30K 😂

COME ON!!!!!!!!! 😆

.

That would be a polyester hot hell for me.

Makes JL look cheap

The White Room is similar price to JL

We have a Hungarian goosedown quilt from John Lewis too. It's only 7 togs but more than warm enough for our old, slightly draughty house.

We have the same duvet in just 2 togs too but it's too warm for the Summer really.

Would it have to be separately insured? And what if it ends up in the skip when I go, and no one realises the duvet is a £10k duvet? Or argue and go nc if they don't get the duvet?

Like a pp, I expect I'd be allergic to it:)

I watched a program about top hotels once and in the king suite of one london hotel they had a bed that was like £500k for the mattress, I think this duvet isn't even top of the range of top duvets when you compare it to the actual expensive bedding out there.
This is just a bit cheap compared 😂

I think I'd want to get a job in a hotel like that for a shift or two just so I could sample the mattress!

And now I'm reminded of some school graffiti
Whats a mistress?
Something between a mister and a mattress!

So the ducks aren't k*lled for the feathers? I've never heard of this. If the darks aren't harmed it actually sounds a fascinating program!

Just think,if I was still working at Waitrose my partner card would have given me 25% off any purchase from JL.
Bargain! 🙂

Omg that's hilarious, 7.5 grand absolute bargain.

Now do we think the big boss of JL is tucked up in a 10 grand quilt, purchased with his 25% discount.😂

Wow was it 25% off everything or just JL branded goods?

A typo?.

I suspect he is and no doubt used the 25% discount for all his JL purchases! 💷💷

25% off any non electrical goods and 12% off any electrical goods.
15% off shopping in Waitrose.
It was very good.

I thought my wool one and £800 mattress was pricey enough!

I have a Brinkhaus superking topper, honestly not worth the money.

Great at first, but soon as flat as a pancake

How much did that rob you?
I'd never heard of them until I Googled eiderdown duvets trying to price check john lewis
