The #1 bedding in many family homes are bed comforters. These can range in
price from the very high end to lowest quality. Taking the time to
choose the right comforter will add touch of fineness to your bedroom
and enhance the decor in whole house. Simply stated: A bed comforter is
nothing more than a bag covering placed on the top of the bed. By and
large in this day and age the comforter can be filled with either down
or artificial fabric. Typically comforters are not large enough to
cover the shams or box spring, but are used more as a 'final decorative
touch' to the of bed. Because of the nature of bed comforters in that
they do not provide excessive warmth, they are often used along with
wool blankets or throws.
Fill power is a term that is used often, in the bedding world. This
basically talks about the quality of a comforter. The higher the fill
power the more superior the quality and the better chance that your
comforter will last longer. 650 - 750 is average to good quality,
anything 800 or above is considered top shelf. Thread count
is also used when measuring the material quality of a comforter. Most
often this method is used for sheets and simply refers to the number of
threads that are in one square inch of fabric. Naturally, the higher
the thread count, the better quality the comforter.
There are basically two types of comforters, down
comforters and feather comforters. Down is often considered
the best natural insulation material. Because it is made up of fluffy
clusters of feathers. In a down comforter, small air pockets expand
when in contact with body heat. The other option; feather comforters,
are also very soft and comfortable and are great at trapping heat.
However, people with allergic reactions should avoid these. Proper care
of your comforter or comforter set will maintain its nice look and feel for many years.
