Bamboo bedding as a gift and what to know first

Short answer: Bedding is a good gift if you know the size of the duvet. Without that measurement the risk of getting it wrong is high, because several common sizes exist.

The measurement is the whole risk

Duvets come in several common sizes, and a cover that does not fit cannot be used. Find the size before you buy. See bamboo bedding.

Neutral colours hit widest

White, sand and grey blue suit most bedrooms. Patterns and strong colours are personal taste and hit right less often, because the bedroom usually already has a colour direction.

The weave divides people

Some love cool percale, others want smooth sateen. If you do not know the taste, percale is the most common choice.

Towels as an alternative

If you do not know the duvet size, towels are a safer gift in the same category. See bamboo towels.
