Why buy a down comforter?
Down comforters are made up of down clusters that are light, fluffy filaments that expand and intertwine to form air pockets. These clusters trap air, a natural insulator. That’s what makes down so warm and light. Since down “breathes,” it naturally regulates warmth and draws away moisture. What is Fill Power? Down from large, mature birds offer more insulating power and a better ability to loft. These features are reflected in a down’s fill power which measures the volume an ounce of down takes up. The higher the fill power, the better the insulating ability of the down & more warmth with much less weight. There are five types of down with varying fill powers. Your choice will depend on the climate, season and your sleeping preference. Good Most affordable down choice. 500-550 Fill Power Down provides soft, light warmth.
