I received my Super King Size Winter Weight Duvet middle of January 16 so I have been using it over a year and use it all through the year even though it is supposedly winter weight. The good thing is it makes the bed really smooth, no bumpy duvets! Other than that I am sorry not to really like it. I am 68 and have been using duvets since 1970 when I got married (unusual then to have a duvet). The Baavet, although a good idea, is much too heavy to lift for bed making. For the first time in my life I have had to start using a top sheet so that I don't have to change the duvet cover as often. When I do change it, it is really awkward to put on, it doesn't flip and drape like down/ feather or manmade so takes ages to try and get the cover on, even though I use the method of inside out and try to flip it over. As to warmth, it was not warm enough until I started using a top sheet which suddenly made it much cosier. I also use a throw over the top when it is real ly cold. I live in a centrally heated house and only have one radiator on in the bedroom which I switch off around 9pm so it isn't too hot up there. I don't like the fact it is too yellow and shows through my white cover. It also slips down the bed by the morning and folds into a slight roll inside the duvet cover at the bottom. All in all, I wish I hadn't bought it, but lots of people do seem to like it going by the reviews.

Absolutely amazing duvet! Warm when its cold cool when it's hot. Lovely and thick with a nice weight to it. Recommend to everyone who cares about their own wellfare, animals wellfare and quality
Thanks Baavet!!!

My winter-weight duvet is not warm enough. If I don't use extra blankets on top I wake up in the night feeling cold, even with a Baavet mattress topper underneath for extra warmth. I didn't have this problem with the down duvet I used before.
Am I the only customer with this problem? Very puzzling as I normally don't feel the cold easily nor do I live in an especially cold house or climate! I read through the marketing information & reviews and was satisfied that it would be perfect for me. But after 4 months I am resigned to the fact it's not warm enough for a good night's sleep (might be ok for spring & autumn).
I am sorry that I cannot be more positive about the duvet, especially as it is British-made and I love the whole company ethos, but I can only say it as it is :-( However I am very satisfied with the mattress topper that I bought at the same time.
