Tell me about your wool duvet ?

[Elasticatedwaist]

Is it crinkly or rustly ? The one from IKEA is like sleeping in a crisp packet and I don’t like it 😂 and I want white as opposed to cream so as my white bedding still looks white .
I am assuming they aren’t all that noisy. Looking at the woolroom ones now.

I bought a baavet 18 months ago. It is too warm for me. And really heavy like I can't move.

The Devon Duvet is great, not noisy and looks great in the cover, lies really flat. It’s a medium, but it’s quite warm, a bit too warm at the moment.

My wool room one you can’t wash - but they do sell washable ones (which are more ££)

Watching this with interest. Saw one in John Lewis however out of stock. I have a synthetic one from M&S which is really warm in winter but getting a super king bed now.

I have a John Lewis one and it's soft and quiet.

It's the cotton covers that can be noisy. I have a Debenhams feels like down duvet with a cotton cover and it's like sleeping under a paper bag.

I have the light wool room one. I don't like heavy duvets so in winter, I add a blanket on top and flannelette sheets underneath. It doesn't smell sheepy - that wears off- and it doesn't make a crinkly noise.

Devon duvets here- right size, right colour and lies just right

I checked the label on the IKEA one and it has wool , a polypropylene lining and a cotton cover . I guess it’s the polypropylene that is making the noise.

I recently bought some cushions from IKEA. We've had the same 'model' before and they were lovely. The new ones are sooo crinkly that I had to take them back. They've obviously changed their lining materials. Awful.

Mine is soak and sleep and only about a month old (all seasons and we’re only using the top bit atm)

It’s much better for temperature regulation but OMG its so noisy. You get used to it but for the first two nights neither of us slept a wink. It very nearly went back.

Mine is from Devon Duvets, I haven't noticed it making any noises and I adore it, having spent years sweltering under a synthetic one.

BTW as far as I remember my Devon Duvet came from John Lewis', but you can buy it direct here www.devonduvets.com/

Just to throw a spanner in the works, have you considered a silk duvet? All the breathable and temperature regulation your want from the wool, it drapes beautifully so you feel snuggled and not like your sleeping under a floating cloud like the puffy polyester sort, and it's super duper quiet no rustle at all. The trouble with achieving sleep perfection at home is you can't appreciate other people's guest beds quite as much. 😆

Oh god, my silk suggestion has killed the wool duvet thread! 😆

Hadn’t thought of silk even though the duvet I’ve been using does actually have a small percentage of silk in it . It’s the touch of silk one from next I think , had it years. Not very good for night sweats though.
I’m guessing a pure silk would be quite expensive ?

Just consider how ethically (or not) the silk is produced if you go down that route.

Yes that was what made me decide against silk. It wasn’t possible to be confident about the methods

I've got a M&S one, bought 3 years ago, love it, no crinkling.

I have a wool duvet, can't remember where form but no crinkles at all. I would guess the crinkle is coming from the casing rather than the wool, and that the casing is not 100% cotton? Personally I'd never have a duvet that didn't have a 100% cotton casing.
I like the wool and find it v comfy, though heavy and a bit of a pain for changing given it's king size.

Oddly the casing is 100% unbleached cotton. It’s crinkletastic. You do get used to it though

I stayed in a holiday cottage with a crisp packet wool duvet,it was horrible!!

I have a Baavet and a Soak and Sleep one. Baavet too hot and crinkles, the other is silent and the right temperature even though thin.

We have devon duvet - love it - a little warm in summer but otherwise great. Not crinkly. Plus they made a special size for us so it's big enough! Love it.

I had a Baavat medium weight king size that I sent back as I didn't get on with it. I found it too hot and it felt thin and not very cosy. I bought a new goose down king after sending it back.

Devon duvet here. Fits perfectly into pure white king-size covers, doesn't crinkle, is nice and lightweight and the only difference in winter is needing to spend 5 minutes cuddling up to warm up quickly.
