Duvet cover 140x200: how to choose your own?

Are you looking for a 140x200 duvet? The items crafted by Bonsoirs will not leave you indifferent. Discover how to choose the model that will provide you with comfortable and restful nights of sleep.


Which mattress does the 140x200 duvet fit?


The 140x200 duvet is suitable for single beds, whether for a child, teenager or adult. This model is perfectly suited for mattresses measuring 90x190 cm, 90x200 cm, 70x190 cm, and 80x200 cm. This size allows for approximately 20 cm of overhang on each side to cover the mattress and a portion of the bed base.


Duvet Cover 140x200: what filling material to choose?


When purchasing a 140x200 duvet, you must consider its filling. At Bonsoirs, we offer various types of filling materials: natural and synthetic. Whichever model you choose, you are guaranteed to benefit from a durable product tailored to your needs.


Our natural duvets, made with 90% down, combine lofty fill, lightness, and warmth. Their primary advantage lies in their breathability. By allowing air to circulate through the casing, they ensure natural ventilation and provide a feeling of freshness. Regarding care, natural duvets require delicate cleaning. It is recommended to entrust them to a dry cleaner or laundry service. The professional will perform dry cleaning or wet cleaning to preserve the feathers and down clusters. In any case, an annual wash is sufficient to avoid damaging the lofty fill power of the natural duvet.


Ideal for allergy sufferers, our synthetic duvets are made from recycled polyester fibers. Easy to care for, they are machine washable. To preserve the plumpness of the filling, use a special “whites” cycle or a cotton program, with intensive rinsing and moderate spinning (maximum 1,000 rpm) to avoid any damage to the duvet cover fabric. To prevent the filling from deflating or compacting during washing, place two or three tennis balls (or laundry balls) in the drum with your duvet.


What level of warmth for a 140x200 duvet?


Duvets measuring 140x200 cm are often categorized by 4 warmth ratings: light, temperate, warm, very warm.


Light duvets are suitable for bedrooms heated above 22°C and are particularly appreciated by those who are sensitive to heat or tend to perspire during the night. They are perfect for the summer season.


Temperate duvets are recommended for spring and autumn. They are suitable for bedrooms where the night temperature fluctuates between 18°C and 22°C, and are appropriate for a wide range of individuals.


In winter or mid-season, warm or very warm duvets are preferable. These models offer cozy comfort, perfect for those who are sensitive to the cold. They allow for good nights of sleep in regions where temperatures are very low, as well as in poorly heated bedrooms with a temperature below 18 °C.


Good to know: 4-seasons duvets 140x200 offer the possibility of adjusting the warmth level during the night. These models consist of two duvets with different fill powers (for example, 200 and 350 g/m²): the lighter one for summer, the medium one for mid-seasons, and both together for winter.


How to choose the tog rating of a 140x200 duvet?


The filling weight of a 140x200 duvet, expressed in grams per square meter (g/m²), is an important indicator. For a natural duvet composed of 90% down, the grammage generally ranges from 180 g/m² for a summer model to a minimum of 350 g/m² for a winter duvet.


For equivalent insulation performance, synthetic duvets have a higher fill power than natural duvets. Expect between 200 to 250 g/m² for a summer duvet and 300 to 500 g/m² for a winter model.


What size duvet cover for a 140x200 duvet?


The key to enjoying a functional and well-fitting bedding set lies in choosing the right duvet cover size. If you opt for a cover that's too small, your duvet may not be evenly distributed inside. You could end up with unsightly creases, ill-fitting corners, and the process of putting it on could be laborious. Conversely, a duvet cover that's too large could hang over the sides and allow your duvet to escape during the night. Therefore, your duvet cover must have the same dimensions as your duvet.
