A comforter (in American English), afterward known as a doona in Australian English,[1] or a continental quilt (or usefully quilt) or duvet in English, is a type of bedding made of two lengths of fabric or covering sewn together and filled subsequently insulative materials for warmth, traditionally all along or feathers, wool or cotton batting, silk, or polyester and new down alternating fibers. later quilts, comforters are generally laid beyond a summit bed sheet (and sometimes also blankets). Duvets are unconventional form of quilt, traditionally filled in the same way as feathers, even though since the tardy 20th century often made of synthetic fibres or by the side of alternatives.
A comforter is sometimes covered for tutelage and prolonged use. Comforter covers are similar in principle to pillowcases, usually closed in the same way as zippers or buttons.
In the united Kingdom the term comforter is not generally used. It is instead called a quilt (or continental quilt), duvet or an eiderdown. A duvet differs in that it is thicker and usually used without blankets or additional sheets.
Sometimes a comforter is sold as ration of a "bed in a bag", usually a case of some sort once handles that contains an entire set of bedding in the thesame 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 area of a comforter and top sheet. More deluxe sets may swell a bed skirt and pillows.
Comforters are usually used in the winter season later than it is very cold, although a variety of stand-in thicknesses means that they can be used in additional seasons as well, following lighter examples mammal used in warmer weather. Due to the thickness of a comforter or the amount of down/feathers or new filling it has, a person is insulated neighboring cold.
Comforter sizes be of the same opinion when bed sizes: twin, full, queen, king, and cal-king. Comforter sizes govern slightly larger than mattress sizes to allow for draping exceeding the sides of the bed. Typical sizes in the allied States for comforters are:
Twin Bed = 64 in (163 cm) width 87 in (221 cm) length
