How We Choose Our Picks
It can be hard to find a good comforter or blanket that keeps you cool when you sleep, whether in the height of summer or all year round.
Most people don't realize this, but the wrong comforter or blanket can actually make you hotter when you sleep. This is because traditional blankets and comforters trap your body heat, making it harder for your body to cool down.
But there’s no need to sweat about it anymore (literally)! We've done the research for you and found the best comforters and blankets for hot sleepers. Our picks are made of lightweight and breathable materials that help keep you cool while you sleep. Plus, they come in a variety of colors and styles to fit your unique personality.

Comforter FAQs
Buying a comforter is an important decision. And the Happy Alpaca team knows there are so many different types, sizes, and materials to choose from.
It can be really hard to figure out which type of comforter is best for you. Do you need a down or synthetic comforter? A king or queen size? Cotton, microfiber, or bamboo?
That's why we've created this guide to answer the most frequently asked questions about comforters so that you can make an informed decision when shopping for your next bedding upgrade.

There are a few different materials that people find to be the most comfortable for hot sleepers.
Some people prefer natural fibers like cotton, linen, or bamboo which are lightweight and breathable.
Others prefer synthetic fabrics like polyester or rayon, which wick away sweat and help to keep you cool. And some people find that a combination of both types of fabrics works best for them.

There are a few differences between a comforter and a duvet. The main difference is that a comforter is used as a standalone piece of bedding, whereas a duvet usually requires two parts (the duvet insert and a cover). Although, many times comforters are able to be used inside as an insert for a duvet cover.
As comforters are typically quilted, the filling is evenly distributed, even after washing or cleaning. Sometimes the filling in a duvet can clump up because they aren't usually quilted.
A duvet or insert can be a little difficult to assemble inside a cover.
Comforters tend to be on the warmer side, unless specifically made for breathability and cooling (like the ones in our list above).
-
Most people recommend washing a comforter once every 3-6 months, but it really depends on how often you use it and how dirty it gets. If you have pets, then you may need to wash it more often.
-
A down alternative comforter is a type of comforter that is filled with synthetic materials rather than natural down feathers. The synthetic materials are designed to mimic the insulating and breathable properties of down, making them a popular choice for people who are allergic to down or who simply prefer not to use animal products.
-
You sure can put a comforter in a duvet cover! This is a great option if you want to change up the look of your bedroom without having to buy new bedding.
Simply purchase a duvet cover in the style or pattern you desire, and then insert your comforter into the cover.
Duvet covers also have the added benefit of being easier to clean than traditional comforters. So if you have children or pets who are prone to accidents, this could be a good option for you.
It's a good idea to measure your comforter before purchasing a duvet cover so you know it will fit properly.
-
Oeko-Tex certifies that products and all of their components are non-hazardous. Which is especially great to see in bedding materials.
