This is actually a very common question and one that is often not given the correct answer!

Duvet is French for ‘down’, so in layman’s terms a duvet is simply better known as a down comforter (that is a comforter that contains feathers). A duvet cover is the often decorative slip the comforter or duvet is placed into which allows you to create a style that suits you in your bedroom.

So next time someone asks you if you have a duvet or a comforter, you should know exactly how to answer

…and if you happen to be looking for a new duvet or duvet cover, both Amazon.com and eBay.com have a great range of duvets and duvet covers which would suit every budget and any bedroom!
