Why am I so confused re: a Duvet Cover
I need a solid navy twin comforter for my son's room. I am picky. I don't like the checkered stitching that I see on most of them. I found one I like but it's a Duvet Cover. So am I supposed to buy something separate? Or is that all I am buying as a comforter??
Duvet Cover

You also need to buy a down comforter as an insert. The Duvet is like a big Pillow case if you will, for your comforter.

You can put any old comforter in it too. Same size of course.

Oh, I agree. I didn't grow up with them, and didn't even know they made comforters this way until I was an adult. I have no interest in ever having one.

Re: Why am I so confused re: a Duvet Cover
i grew up with only having duvets (and therefore duvet covers) and i loathe them.
yes, a duvet is lovely to sleep under, and its warm and fluffy and wonderful. But changing the damn cover is not worth it!!
as another poster said - its a giant pillowcase for a plain white (often down) comforter.

I actually prefer a duvet cover. It is easy to take off, launder, and press. It always looks fresh because it gets washed more often than my standard comforters.

Do you really press your duvet cover?

But I do think it's a pain shoving that blanket into it every week. I guess for a twin, it would be quite easy. King - It's work out! lol But it is much easier to keep it clean

before i had my new machines I might have agreed with this though i would think you would want to wash the actual comforter it goes into too when was the cover but with my new washer and dryer I was my comforter every time I do sheets. separate loads but it fits in both machines.
