How to Choose the Best Duvet for Singapore’s Weather

Duvets are a key part of your bedding and have an important role in making you feel cozy and comfortable. So when you are looking for the best duvet in Singapore, it's important to choose one that is not only good looking but also provides warmth and comfort to your body.

Materials Commonly Used in Duvets

Cotton

Cotton is a great option for duvet covers as it is easy to maintain. Cotton bedding also helps you to sleep more comfortably, as it allows your body to ventilate. A cotton duvet is also ideal if you have allergy issues. Cotton fabrics can be washed at home and then dried either on a clothesline or air-dried. The drying process can take several days, depending on the weather. When using a machine to dry your clothes, use a heat setting that is low to moderate. High heat can cause cotton to shrink.

Linen

Natural linen is ideal for a full night’s sleep. European homes have adopted linen duvet because of its luxurious feel and easy care. In fact, it has been their favourite fabric for centuries. Linen also has its natural hypoallergenic properties, perfect if you have allergies or sensitive skin. In terms of maintenance, you can easily wash linen duvets in a machine and spin them in hot air inside the dryer.

Tencel

Tencel is gaining popularity as an eco-friendly product. It is made from a sustainable material (pulp of eucalyptus wood) that's better for the environment than cotton. Tencel materials have a higher absorbency rate and dry faster than cotton. Tencel is a smooth fabric with a silky touch, making it ideal for sleepers who constantly feel hot at night.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Duvet

Filling Weight

The fill weight is a good indicator of the warmth, softness and comfort of a duvet. The higher the fill weight, the heavier it will be. A heavy duvet does not equal a warmer duvet. Fill power measures how effective and insulating a duvet filling is. So, a heavy duvet with low fill power may not be as warm as you thought it would be.

Durability

The durability of the duvet is one of the most important factors if you are looking for the best duvets in Singapore. Some duvets can last long, while some cannot. The durability can be easily judged by its quality material and construction. The more durable a duvet is, the less likely you will have to worry about buying another one in a few months.

Temperature Regulation

With Singapore's hot and humid weather, a temperature regulating duvet will help you sleep comfortably throughout the night. Temperature regulating bedding helps to wick heat away from the body and keep you cool all night long. 

Why Silk Could Be the Best Option

The silk duvet offers a soft, peaceful and relaxing sleep with its lightweight, breathable and luxurious feel. Even under harsh conditions, this silk duvet is less likely to stain and fray. Silk is also naturally hypoallergenic and dust-mite resistant. It drapes well over the bed and is not bulky. Plus, if cleaned professionally, it will last for years. Therefore spending on a silk duvet in Singapore will be a good investment.
