You’ll need to consider your climate and how you like to sleep when deciding on the right fill power for your comforter. Most down duvet inserts–including ours–come in lightweight and all season varieties. The difference here is amount of fill (in ounces). All season duvet inserts have more of the same high fill power down than their lightweightcompatriots, making them warm enough for frigid winter nights without being heavy and suffocating.
You’ll also want to look for a baffle box design, which means the duvet is loosely quilted in a grid pattern to keep the filling evenly distributed throughout the comforter. This allows the down to reach its maximum loft, but keeps it all from sliding to the bottom.
Finally, you may want to consider down alternative instead of down if you're allergic to down feathers or prefer to use synthetic materials over animal-products. Learn more about whether to go with down or down alternative in our Down vs Down Alternative guide.
