In general, duvet sizes should match the size of your bed as well as your height and build. Additionally, consider your personal sleeping habits: for example, if you move a lot during sleep, a slightly larger duvet may be preferable.

DaunenStep offers a full range of duvets in various sizes, dimensions, materials, and warmth levels. Here, you can find information about the available sizes and how they meet different needs:

Single bed duvet sizes

Single duvets typically measure 155x200 cm or 155x220 cm for those who prefer a longer duvet. In South Tyrol, as well as in many northern countries such as Germany and Austria, the standard size is 135x200 cm.

This size is ideal for people around 190/200 cm tall. A longer duvet ensures that even taller individuals can sleep comfortably without their feet being exposed.

Children's duvet sizes

For children, the size depends on whether the child sleeps in a cradle or a cot. For cradles, the recommended size is 80x120 cm. For cots, the suggested size is 100x135 cm.

Caring for your duvet

To maintain the quality and characteristics of your duvet over time, it's essential to follow proper care practices. Here are some helpful tips:

• Washing: Always follow the instructions on the label. Generally, duvets can be machine washed on a gentle cycle at a low temperature.
