What Is A Duvet Set & What Does It Include?

A duvet set is an essential component of any luxurious bedding ensemble, offering both style and functionality. When you invest in a duvet set from Reed Family Linen, you’re not just purchasing a single item but a coordinated collection that elevates the comfort and appearance of your bed. Duvet sets are designed to take out the guesswork, providing you with a cohesive “bed in a bag” solution for a beautifully made bed. So, what exactly is included?

Our collection of exquisite duvet covers is available in myriad weaves, designs, and colour combinations to set the perfect bedroom scene. Our duvet sets comprise a duvet cover, fitted sheet, and two pillowcases.

Key Components Of A Duvet Set

Fitted Sheet: All our fitted sheets are cut and sewn with a generous 38cm gusset so that they fit and tuck in under extra-deep mattresses, while the corners are sewn with double stitching for extra strength and the bottom edge is elasticated all the way around. To make the job of changing the bed faster and simpler, the bottom left corner of the sheet has a sew-in label to guide you in, effortlessly taking out the guesswork. Our fitted sheets are available in all our colours and fabrics to match the REED bed linen collections.

Duvet Cover: The duvet cover is a decorative and protective layer that encases the duvet insert. Much like a pillowcase for a pillow, the duvet cover protects the insert from dirt, spills, and wear, extending its lifespan. The cover comes with closures such as buttons, zippers, or ties to keep the insert securely in place. Duvet covers are available in various materials including cotton, linen, and silk, and feature a range of colours and patterns, allowing for easy customisation of your bedroom decor.

Pillowcases: A duvet set typically includes matching pillowcases that coordinate with the duvet cover. These pillowcases add a cohesive and stylish look to your bed. They often feature the same material and design as the duvet cover, ensuring a unified aesthetic.

Benefits Of A Duvet Set

Ease of Maintenance: Duvet covers can be easily removed and washed, simplifying the upkeep of your bedding. This makes it easier to keep your bedding clean and fresh without the hassle of washing the entire duvet insert frequently.

Versatility and Style: With a wide variety of designs, colours, and materials, duvet sets allow you to change the look of your bedroom quickly and affordably. You can switch out the duvet cover to match the season or your mood, giving your space a fresh feel without needing to buy a new duvet.

Protection for Your Duvet: Using a duvet cover protects the insert from damage and dirt, helping to prolong its life. This means you can enjoy the comfort of your duvet for many years with proper care.

What Sizes Do Duvet Sets Come In?

Duvet sets come in various sizes to suit different bed dimensions. Reed Family Linen offers a range of sizes to ensure a perfect fit for any bed. Here’s a breakdown of the sizes we offer:

How To Use A Duvet Set

Using a duvet set effectively enhances both the comfort and aesthetics of your bed. Here’s a detailed guide including steps for putting on a duvet cover, maintenance tips, and the benefits of proper use.

Steps To Put On A Duvet Cover

There are several methods to put on a duvet cover, each designed to make the process easier and ensure the duvet is evenly distributed inside the cover.

Standard Method

1. Lay the Cover Flat: Spread the duvet cover flat on the bed with the opening at the foot.
2. Position the Insert: Place the duvet insert on top of the cover, aligning all corners.
3. Insert and Adjust: Stand at the foot of the bed with another person. Each person grabs one of the top corners of the insert. Shimmy the insert up into the cover, ensuring the corners fit snugly.
4. Secure and Shake: Close the duvet cover using buttons, snaps, or zippers. Shake the duvet cover to distribute.
5. Final Adjustments: Lay the covered duvet flat on the bed and continue arranging your bedding.

Roll Method

1. Inside-Out Setup: Turn the duvet cover inside out and lay it flat on the bed with the opening at the foot.
2. Align and Roll: Place the duvet insert on top of the cover. Roll both the duvet and cover together from the head towards the foot, like a Swiss roll.
3. Stuff and Unroll: Stuff the rolled duvet into the cover. Fasten the cover and unroll the duvet.
4. Shake and Flatten: Shake the duvet to ensure it is evenly distributed within the cover.

Maintenance And Care

To maintain your duvet set and ensure its longevity:

• Regular Washing: Wash the duvet cover and pillowcases regularly to keep them clean. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for the best results.
• Spot Cleaning: For minor stains, use a mild detergent and a damp cloth to spot-clean the duvet cover.
• Drying: Air drying is preferable to maintain fabric quality. If using a dryer, choose a low-heat setting.
• Storage: Store your duvet cover and insert in a cool, dry place when not in use to prevent mildew and odours.

Benefits Of Using A Duvet Set

Easy Maintenance: The duvet cover protects the insert, making it easier to keep your bedding clean and fresh.

Versatility: Duvet covers come in various designs and materials, allowing you to change the look and feel of your bed according to the season or your preferences.

Enhanced Comfort: A well-fitted duvet set provides optimal warmth and cosiness, contributing to a better night’s sleep.

By following these steps and tips, you can maximise the benefits of your duvet set, ensuring both comfort and style in your bedroom.
