Is Wool Really Cooling?
Duvet covers for Woolino duvet - do I need linen?

I'm looking for a wool comforter. Thinking woolroom or woolino. Want washable. I am using a down down comforter now but it's so hot. I do like the fluffiness. Will the wool comforter be super flat? Also I would like loops on it to secure a linen cover on it. Thanks!
Hello, with the cold snap around Christmas in the US, I've been re-evaluating my cold weather preps. One thing I'm considering is a wool comforter. I used to have one my aunt made, but passed it on to my sister once she had her first baby.
I was thinking of buying (or possibly making one) for myself. I already have a wool blanket, but a comforter sounds nice for being at home if the heating fails. My current wool blanket has a bit of an odor, but I'd like to avoid that for regular use bedding.
Note: I'm not considering down because it hits me in my allergies.
Does anyone have a wool comforter? Any recommendations on brands?
Edit: I didn't think to address the language differences around comforter vs duvet. I'm thinking of a big fluffy blanket. I currently use what we call a duvet cover in the US. I'd probably be using a duvet cover with whatever fluffy blanket I go with, since it's easier than washing the whole blanket constantly (I have cats)
Here's a link to one brand I'm considering. Should give people an idea what I'm referring to when I say comforter.
My husband bought me/us Woolino's king comforter for Christmas and we want to protect while maintaining its temp-regulating properties as much as possible (we hate sleeping hot.)
Do I need a linen duvet cover to keep it breathable? The thought of us spending hundreds on the comforter and now a cover is just a lot right now. (Especially because we have a toddler, and who knows what accidents can happen. Also we have a cat that sleeps on the bed and her claws could ruin linen I imagine.)
What other duvet cover materials are recommended to keep it breathable?
Thank you.
Edit: If anyone comes cross this we ended up going with Cultiver's linen duvet cover and are happy with it.
