Best Down Comforters of 2024: 10 Cozy Options for Every Kind of Sleeper

When searching for a budget-friendly comforter for beds, interior designer Sarah Storms notes that of course, quality should still be kept top of mind, which is why she appreciates the LaCrosse Down Comforter from the Company Store. “Not only is this product exceptional quality, with sewn-through box construction and backed with the lifetime guarantee from the manufacturer, the down is certified to be ethically and sustainably sourced,” she shares. Select from a variety of fill powers and colors, depending on your personal preferences. Storms also likes that the comforter comes with loops on each corner to help secure it in place when it’s inserted into a duvet cover.

At over $1,500 for a King, Scandia Home’s Salzburg Medium Weight Down Comforter doesn’t come cheap, but interior designer Layton Campbell says that it’s certainly worth the investment. When shopping, choose from three types of fill power (light, medium, and ultra). The comforter features a cotton sateen shell and a 12-inch baffle that keeps the down in place. “The other reason I like Scandia is that they responsibly resource all of their down products, which is huge in my book,” Campbell says.

Featuring a high fill power, this All-Season down comforter is a favorite of interior designer Victoria Holly. She appreciates that this option is also OEKO-TEX® certified and rings up at a mid-range price point, too.

Those who are allergic to down or are simply in search of an alternate material will want to follow interior designer Kelsey Haywood’s lead. She continuously comes back to the Cuddledown Damask Stripe Synthetic Fill Comforter and recommends selecting the Summer weight, which is still suitable for use year round. “It’s great for a layered bed that doesn't need the warmth of down fill,” Haywood says. “Perfect for warm or hot sleepers!”

I officially no longer dread washing and changing my duvet anymore, thanks to Doze’s genius three-sided opening with snap corners and a zip-to-close feature. It makes it incredibly easy to keep your duvet cover clean, which in turn, keeps this down-alternative insert clean. What I love about the comforter is its oversized design. It’s larger than standard duvets for a cozier fit. Available in All Season or Lightweight iterations, it’s ideal for every type of climate.

Haywood always recommends tucking a comforter into a duvet cover. “Not only does it help create a seamless look through bed linens, but it protects your duvet insert,” she explains. “Washing the cover is far easier than washing the duvet (though you should do both!)” For a super seamless option, try Pippen House’s Signature Duvet System, which includes both an insert and a duvet cover. “It’s a super breathable bamboo and cotton blend that feels super luxurious,” says designer Katie Rosenfeld, who owns this set herself.

If you’re in the market for a down comforter that boasts both a high fill power and a middle range price tag, look no further than Parachute’s Down Duvet Insert. Interior designer Taniya Nayak uses this in her own home and calls it a “game changer.” “It’s lightweight but has the right density to help me sleep,” she explains “I love that it has a cooling effect on warmer days and a warming effect on cooler days.” Interior designer Kristen Peña agrees with this observation and appreciates that the fill stays in place without fluffing, too.

If you share a bed with a partner, you’ll have two sets of comforter preferences to take into account. Interior designer Bethany Adams finds that Cuddledown’s Dual Warmth Down Comforter is an incredibly innovative option for couples, given that sleepers can select a warmth level for their specific side of the bed, with three combinations available. “This is a game changer for spouses who don't exactly run at the same temperature—or those who simply prefer a warmer or cooler sleep environment,” Adams says.

Ringing up at under $200, this Amazon comforter is an excellent choice for those on a budget, says designer Caroline Kopp. The comforter is also nice and sizable, making it a great pick for a couple. “Unlike a regular king duvet, this one hangs over each side of your bed for a full 24 inches,” Kopp says. “This means it’s actually shareable, with no cold shoulders or tug of war needed.” She does note that due to the oversized measurements, buyers will need to order a custom duvet cover to accompany the insert. “If you don't want to go this route, just use a sheet on both sides and tuck everything together hotel style,” Kopp adds.

If you’d like a more sustainable option that’s also chic and doesn’t even require a duvet to look stunning on your bed, look no further than the Rewardown EcoLuxe Recycled Down & Kapok Comforter. The brand repurposes and thus renews down, significantly reducing the demand for materials—which helps to conserve natural resources and minimize waste. I personally tested this one in the Mint Delight (a creamy green) shade and was impressed by its quality, in addition to the vibrance of the fabric dye.
