Hi I’m looking for a new duvet. I found the HONSBAR (red dot- unsure what that means)
Can you suggest an equivalent? Need a new duvet ASAP!
I have a full-size down Hönsbär duvet (now discontinued) that I'm looking to replace with a king-size version. Does anyone know which current warmth rating this corresponds to? The tag features a blue circle inside an orange square.
Hi all! I know HONSBAR comes in cooler, warmer, and extra warm. Does anyone know just how warmer each one is? I have the cooler one, but I’m looking to get something a little heavier and so I figured another size up would be good to fill things out. I just don’t want to sweat to death if I can avoid it.
Unless y’all have non-IKEA duvet suggestions but that’s probably against the rules, lol
I've tried googling this but can't seem to find anything. I have a Hönsbär duvet and on the label it has a blue circle inside an orange background. I'm assuming this is some symbol for the tog but just not sure? If anyone could shed some light I'd really appreciate it. I don't think it's for sale anymore so couldn't see anything on the IKEA website. Need a cooler duvet but just don't know what tog to go for!
Hi all, I am searching for a down comforter and was wondering if any of you have down comforters from IKEA. Are they warm? Are the fluffy? Do they shed? Basically - are the worth the money? Here's whats available on their website right now - do you have recommendations? http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/categories/departments/bedroom/20531/
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
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)
Do you guys have any? And if so, which one do you recommend? Thanks :)
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
I know this has been asked many times before but frankly every time I think I’ve found a good option, I see tons of negative reviews. My budget is under $200 and I prefer linen or percale, more breathable but soft fabrics.
I think I will stay away from Brooklinen and Quince given all the quality issues I’ve seen.
I’m pretty happy with my Ikea duvet cover, but it’s started to get holes after years of use. I’m still looking for a relatively budget replacement (<$100). I like my pull my duvet up to my face, and sometimes even up to my nose, so I don’t want to be feel smothered, and I’m looking for something smooth.
Also, I’m not a huge fan of the feeling of hotel sheets (though I don’t even think percale would be in my budget anyways).
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 a lady. I admit that. I like to be warm but my husband overheats under the heavy down duvet that I chose. I'm going to get a new one, but I don't know how heavy to get that'll be good for the winter, but keep him from sweating and throwing off the blankets.
Currently we have MYSA RÖNN duvet, warmth rating 6 (the warmest). It seems that they have changed their system from numbers to "Cooler, Warmer, and Extra Warm".
If you have an Ikea Duvet (down or synthetic), which one do you have and how do you like it? Do you get too hot?
Hello all!
As title says, it's time to replace my 15 year old Ikea FJÄLLARNIKA light warm duvet insert. I have a separate full-warmth down duvet and it's great, but too hot for any time the outside temps are above freezing (or 15C in my bedroom). I've been using the Ikea one for the other 3 seasons, adding a wool blanket on top for the shoulder seasons. I've been quite happy with it generally, I like that there's enough weight to feel cozy without trapping too much heat for the summer. I could just replace it with the same one, but I'm curious as to what could be better out there. Also it's kind of annoying that Ikea duvet inserts are non-standard sizes and they never fit right with my non-Ikea covers.
I've been curious about silk duvets, but being dry clean only seems onerous. I have to wash mine in warm water regularly as I'm allergic to dust mites. I also worry that putting a heavy-ish wool blanket on top of the silk duvet for 2/3 the time will compress it and compromise its function, though I'm not sure if there's any real basis for this.
What would you recommend?
For reference the Queen size ikea duvet inserts are 86" x 86", and other brands (in Canada) are typically 92" x 90". I'll be using this for when temps in my bedroom 20-25C.
I’m beginning to think I’m losing my mind. I bought a 12.5 Tog feather duvet from IKEA, 240 x 220 cm. I also bought two sets of bedding, from IKEA, at the same size, 240 x 220 cm
So why is it that the duvet is too small for the duvet cover?! They should be the same size but I still have about 10cm of flappy duvet at the edge. I’m guessing the bottom of the duvet is where the label is, so I’ve got that on the same edge as the bedding fasteners, and I just can’t figure out what the issue is. Have I put the duvet in wrong? Is this a common issue? Can anyone save me from the sensory sin that is a sad flappy duvet cover?!
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!!
