A duvet that never has a cover on

[Ohjustbuggeroff]

Is this weird?

Buying a duvet from Primark etc and not buying a duvet cover, just using this duvet as it is?

Anyone do this?

Well, it's not usual no. What are the circumstances. Student bedsit, struggling elderly person, someone totally skint?

Ugh no.

And I say that as someone with fairly low standards!!

You can buy coverless duvets where the whole thing can be washed, that would be better than using an ordinary duvet without a cover on it.

I don't know anyone who'd do this unless they were in very severe financial hardship. But having said that it's not really gross, as long as it fits easily enough into the washing machine and gets cleaned regularly. But surely washing a cover is less laborious than a whole duvet?

Depends. Eiderdowns didn't have covers. A sheet went underneath.

A light duvet could be washed.

It isn't standard but does it matter? Not hugely, unless never washed.

Depends. I've seen a few cover less duvets so if it's one of those then it's supposed to be like that.

The material on a duvet normally
Isn't very comfy unless you buy a nice cotton one

However, my son has cover list. Davies one is a PlayStation one and one is a Minecraft one, but I've seen other ones too. They just got in and out a wash no problem as they are sort of "stitched like quilted

Just got DS a coverless duvet and the whole thing goes in the wash. So if the duvet would fit in your washing machine and you can dry it easily I dont see the difference really.

Be a pain to ruddy wash every week like, but you can do what you want really.

Cover less duvets, sorry

I do this. I use a sheet underneath it.

I hate duvet covers.

I don't really understand coverless duvets
Why would you want to wash the whole thing every week?
It must take ages to dry.
Duvet cover is thin and dries much quicker

Is it a coverless one? There are some excellent ones that can be thrown in the washing machine and dried easily like these (I covet one)

If so, carry on. If it's a regular duvet they're not designed to be washed and dried easily and would likely get fairly gross fairly quickly. Read the laundry instructions carefully.

Is it because you don’t like the faff on putting the cover back on?

A coverless duvet is made differently to a normal duvet. Our coverless duvets dry more quickly than our duvet covers.

If it’s not made to be a coverless duvet, it’s weird.

Oh god that one is polyester and nicro fibre!
No thanks I will stick to my linen bedlinen @TeamPlaying

If its just a normal duvet that is meant to have a cover on then yes it's weird, it depends though if you are doing it because you can't be arsed putting the cover on or if you are on the bones of your arse skint and its the only way your child will have a cover. Context is everything really.

I have a coverless duvet and love it. It dries in a couple of hours.

Isn’t that just a quilt?

I have a thin 4 tog white duvet. I get very hot at night, so if I then put a cover on it, it’s way too much for me. I just bung it on a hot wash once a week, it dries really fast on the line or in the dryer. Personally I don’t see the problem?

I get too hot which is why I prefer natural fibres.
I cant bear polyester for that reason, its not breathable.

Also the bed is warmer with a cover as it’s extra layers.
I like nice bedding not stuff that makes you un uncomfortable .

We have cover less duvets on the children's beds. They're great, wash easily in the machine and dry super quick. They're a lovely blue colour and look great on their beds.

I have a coverless duvet but I don't wash it every week because it doesn't fit in my washing machine. I pop it in my mum's machine as its a 10kg one.
