Hi Everyone,
My Fiancé sleeps hot and I am in the market to get a new Duvet Cover that is linen & Duvet insert that is breathable. Since our current Duvet Cover is from Amazon (MooMee, 100% cotton) with a Down Alternative comforter (Costco, probably polyester).
I haven’t landed on a Duvet Cover yet but I wanted to see if anyone has used this insert before and if they would recommend it to a semi-hot sleeper (Me)
I desperately need a new duvet and I was looking at ordering one from IKEA because the price is right and I generally like the quality of their products.
I was specifically looking at the STJÄRNBRÄCKA light warm duvet, but the reviews are mixed so I wanted to get some more input.
Would you recommend something else? A different model, material, etc?
I've had my last duvet for a decade so I have no point of reference and live a state away from the nearest store. Any input is appreciated!!
I’m looking for a king-sized, down duvet that is super fluffy, downy, and warm. Anyone familiar with them?
This duvet looks very thick and fluffy and has a high down-to-feather ratio (hence a higher price than most IKEA duvets). Wondering if anyone can share experiences with it? Is it as puffy/thick as it looks?
Looking for some recommendations on new bedsheets and a new duvet.
Specific to the bedsheets, they’d be going on a black/brown Malm bed, bedroom painted grey. I was thinking to go with a solid white to make the sheets ‘pop’ a bit and to incorporate a bright color.
In terms of the duvet, I’d prefer something that is going to be warmer than not.
Would anyone be willing to share their experiences and/or opinions?
Thank you in advance!
Hi, we're wanting to upgrade our duvet from a cheap synthetic sweaty comforter to something nicer and natural. Looking at IKEA right now since they have pretty affordable options. We're considering wool and down.
Can anyone weigh in on the down smell issues? Seems like a lot of reviewers end up throwing the duvet out due to the smell. Is the stank really that brutal?
Also would love any experience with the wool duvet. I love wool, just not sure how warm it will be.
For context, our bedroom gets down into the mid 50s in the winter. We're also running flannel sheets and a Pendleton wool blanket.
Any input on either of the IKEA duvets is appreciated ✌️
I'm moving into college soon and I am buying stuff for my bedroom. I've never really used comforters, duvets, or any standard bed sheets for my bed. I've been using old blankets from when I was like 10 and covering my bed in an old comforter thats probably the same age as me. I'd really like to make my new room look a lot nicer than it has been recently. Does anyone know if Ikea has quality bed sheets that are budget-friendly?
I have this one https://www.ikea.com/us/en/p/varbraecka-duvet-cover-and-pillowcase-s-beige-white-80412592/ and I really like the texture. I want more pillow cases but they don't sell them individually like some of the others. I would like to know what other duvets feel like these, if anyone knows. It feels like a brushed thread, very soft and smooth for a cheaper/low tc bedlinen.
I have Ullvide sheet set and it's ok but I don't like it for pillow cases, they pull my hair too much.
I wanted to buy more 3b studio Viscose pillow cases but I guess most people here know about the sad story of these being discontinued XD.
Im looking for a comforter and noticed that IKEA sells them. Has anyone purchased one is it good quality and worth the $$$$$.
I'm looking into summer bedding for our home. I got cotton percale sheet set, cotton duvet cover, and now need a duvet insert. I want natural materials (no synthetic) and am torn between A) IKEA Fjallarnika in light warm (https://www.ikea.com/us/en/p/fjaellarnika-duvet-insert-light-warm-50457474/) vs B) a silk option (https://a.co/d/20cpliD ---OR--- https://www.mommesilk.com/products/copy-of-washable-cotton-covered-silk-comforter).
Does anyone have experience to share? In the hottest months here (hot & humid) everything will be thrown off, so I wouldn't mind if it had a bit of versatility, i.e., spring/summer/fall.
More info: One child sleeps hot, one does not; they share a room. For winter (gets very cold here) son has the Fjallarnika duvet insert in warm and throws it off most nights. Daughter has the Fjallbracka in warm bc it was too hot for son. Fjallarnika has 90% feather/10% down so I thought getting it in light warm for summer would be a cooler option than the light warm Fjallbracka which has 75% down/25% feather.
IKEA is 3 hrs away so going to see in person is basically already making the choice. Would like to get them this weekend so I can be ready to change the bedding as the weather warms up! Thanks
Hi all, I’m considering pulling the trigger on buying a down insert from IKEA due to the amazing price. Also, is down or down alternative better? I live in western NY (Buffalo area) so we have long winters. I don’t really sleep or cold, basically in the middle. Any recs? I’m not trying to spend more than $150! LMK if they are worth it! Thanks
If you are using an IKEA duvet insert, what kind of cover are you using? Are you only using IKEA covers of the same size? Or have you found other covers can work? I am in the US so sizing is a bit different for IKEA duvets from standard sizes and so I am hesitant to purchase a duvet from there, but I am seeing good reviews.
Simple question.
Thanks guys!
Hi Reddit,
My wife and I have been sleeping with the STJÄRNSTARR all year for a few years, but it's slightly too cold for me in my new apartment (I often wake up cold and need to put on a bunch of blankets).
I decided to try the "light warm" FJÄLLBRÄCKA (75% down) and found it WAY too hot. What would you say is the coolest of the duvets in the "light warm" category? Am I better off just doubling up two STJÄRNSTARR's? (We keep our room at around 69 degrees at night.)
Hey guys! I was wondering if there were any amazing duvet or duvet covers yall would recommend? Everytime I buy one the duvet is super flat or the duvet cover rips after a couple washes 😭 I'm specifically looking for one that is pink or white or both but at this point ANYTHING will work!!
I’m looking for a super fluffy and pillowy insert for the winter. I’m not concerned about the temperature rating or anything I just want a super fluffy one.
First off, I’m so glad Reddit’s algorithm brought me here because I needed this. I have a queen duvet from IKEA (86 inches on all sides) and I don’t love a lot of their designs for the covers, so is there a site that matches the size? We’ll eventually get a nicer and bigger one, but we don’t have the funds for a $400+ insert right now. I’m also wondering, has anyone ever bought a cover they liked and had it tailored to fit the insert?
I’ve checked Amazon and Wayfair with little to no luck. I want a style that’s mature and masculine without being stuffy and boring.
i've found that the covers don't have to be exactly the same size as the inserts.
Ugh, I have an ikea duvet too. Bought a duvet cover thinking queen must be same everywhere but it is 90x92. Im scared the 6 inch difference is pretty big. I havent opened my duvet cover. Not sure if I should try it or leave it new and gift it. I could get a new duvet but then have to replace all my other duvet covers too…
Does anyone have any tips or tricks to help with getting duvets to stay inside of the duvet covers evenly? Whenever I am trying to put my duvet on my bed with the duvet cover on the duvet shifts around so much inside of it, that it ends up being really lumpy, and does not fill up the entirety of the duvet cover, even though they are the same size. I have the twin size duvet cover from IKEA if that helps.
