Choosing Your St. Geneve Duvet
Choose your Warmth
- Summer: For the warmest climates and sleepers.
- Classic: Fuller and warmer than the Summer. Perfect for "average" to warm sleepers
in warmer climates and heated bedrooms.
- Winter: For the average sleeper and year around use, in unheated or
cooler bedrooms. Guaranteed to be warm enough for 10 years
or St. Geneve will add more down at no cost (except for shipping), provided
that the duvet has been properly cared for and a duvet cover has been used
at all times.
- Dual Warmth: He's hot, she's not. St. Geneve can make a duvet with different weights
on the two sides, for example; a lightweight on one side, and a regular on
the other. Please contact us for more information.
Please note: St. Geneve can add down, but cannot remove down from a duvet.
Choose Quality
Your St. Geneve duvet will serve you every day and night, every week, every month, for decades. There is nothing that you will use so closely and personally that will comfort you so completely.
A quality duvet will outlast a television, fridge, mattress, stove, and even a car. In terms of actual use, a car will last perhaps around 12,000 hours, a quality duvet around 75,000 (assuming that you take good care of both and there is about 250,000 miles on the car).
With proper care, a good duvet will last for 20 to 30 years or
more. It will be a pleasure to use each and every night. A cheap low quality
duvet will last perhaps 3 years, and will not be a pleasure to use, therefore
they are not cheap, just very poor value.
A quality duvet will provide a wider comfort range; they will be warmer in the winter, and cooler in the summer than lower quality duvets. This is because higher quality down is better at all the things that down is famous for (such as insulation, lightness, breathability, etc) than lower quality down.
Each of the St. Geneve duvets we offer here start with excellent quality (the Lajord), then just get better (SÖVING, Ziegler, Salzburg, Embassy & Eiderdown).
