Bedding for a double bed with two duvets

Short answer: In Denmark most couples sleep under one duvet each, so two single sets are bought rather than one double set. It also makes washing and changing separately easier.

Two duvets, two covers

With a duvet each you can choose different warmth and change independently of each other. See the sets in bamboo bedding.

The size depends on the duvet

Measure the duvet and buy by that, not by the width of the bed. The most used are 140x200 and 140x220.

The length matters most

If you are tall, 140x220 gives more duvet over your feet. See bamboo bedding 140x220.

If you sleep differently

If one of you is warm and the other cold at night, you can choose different duvet weights and still have matching covers. See bamboo bedding 140x200.

Pillows

The standard pillow in Denmark is 60x63 centimetres. Check yours if you have a different model.

Number of sets

Two sets per person mean you can change and wash without waiting. See how often should bedding be changed.

Washing

40 degrees without fabric softener. See how to wash bamboo bedding.
