About Filling
Down is a layer of insulation that
geese and duck have underneath
their feathers to keep them warm
and dry. Natural down is chosen for
its luxurious warmth, softness,
superior resilience, loft and insulating
properties, unmatched by synthetic fills. Body temperature
is better controlled as well as body alignment during
sleeping.
Another major factor to consider in the quality of your down
comforter is:
Fill Power
Fill power refers to the measurement of the loft or fluff. It is
the true measure of quality in a duvet and it is tested by
measuring the amount of space 1 oz of down takes up.
The more space it takes; the higher the fill power. A higher
fill power will give you a lighter, more fluffy comforter for a
given warmth level.
Fill Power above 600 is considered
luxury quality, 700 FP is a great
balance between luxurious feel,
durability and cost-effectiveness and
the rarest, most luxury is 800 FP.
