A comforter (in American English), moreover known as a doona in Australian English,[1] or a continental quilt (or handily quilt) or duvet in English, is a type of bedding made of two lengths of fabric or covering sewn together and filled like insulative materials for warmth, traditionally all along or feathers, wool or cotton batting, silk, or polyester and further by the side of alternative fibers. later quilts, comforters are generally laid higher than a top bed sheet (and sometimes with blankets). Duvets are out of the ordinary form of quilt, traditionally filled next feathers, while in the past the tardy 20th century often made of synthetic fibres or down alternatives.
A comforter is sometimes covered for tutelage and prolonged use. Comforter covers are similar in principle to pillowcases, usually closed like zippers or buttons.
In the united Kingdom the term comforter is not generally used. It is otherwise called a quilt (or continental quilt), duvet or an eiderdown. A duvet differs in that it is thicker and usually used without blankets or new sheets.
Sometimes a comforter is sold as allocation of a "bed in a bag", usually a deed of some sort as soon as handles that contains an entire set of bedding in the similar or a matching pattern: comforter and top sheet, fitted sheet, pillowcase(s), and perhaps pillow sham(s). Some sets have a duvet and duvet cover (more popular in Europe) in place of a comforter and top sheet. More deluxe sets may attach a bed skirt and pillows.
Comforters are usually used in the winter season as soon as it is certainly cold, although a variety of stand-in thicknesses means that they can be used in further seasons as well, afterward lighter examples monster used in warmer weather. Due to the thickness of a comforter or the amount of down/feathers or further filling it has, a person is insulated adjoining cold.
Comforter sizes concur similar to bed sizes: twin, full, queen, king, and cal-king. Comforter sizes run slightly larger than mattress sizes to allow for draping more than the sides of the bed. Typical sizes in the joined States for comforters are:
Twin Bed = 64 in (163 cm) width 87 in (221 cm) length
Queen Bed / Full = 87 in (221 cm) width 87 in (221 cm) length
King Bed = 101 in (257 cm) width 90 in (229 cm) length
