Down Comforter Bedding
Down comforters equal good night sleep.19.05.2009
While you may know the basic differences between a down pillow and a feather pillow, there is more to consider when you pick the perfect pillow. Let’s consider what you may not know about down pillows for the best night’s sleep.
The outer casing holding the down is called ticking. Ideally it should be 100 percent cotton with a high thread count to keep the feathers in. Fill power is the space in inches an ounce of down takes at expansion. Try to get a fill power around 600 to feel that puffy fluff you want under your head when you go to bed.
If you sleep on your back, get a medium down pillow. Tummy sleepers will want a soft pillow while side sleepers should opt for a firm one. The position you start sleeping in how you determine which firmness to choose.
While some folks think you can only get a down pillow or a feather pillow, there are other options. If you have allergies, down alternative pillows are a good option. Those on a tight budget might consider a down and feather combo pillow.
Replace your down pillow everyone one to two years. Heavy sleepers may need to update their pillows every six months. Make good use of the tags on your pillows to write the date your bought them so you know how old they are.
Now you’re ready to choose the perfect down pillow for a dreamy night’s sleep!
