A comforter (in American English), after that known as a doona in Australian English,[1] or a continental quilt (or understandably quilt) or duvet in English, is a type of bedding made of two lengths of fabric or covering sewn together and filled similar to insulative materials for warmth, traditionally all along or feathers, wool or cotton batting, silk, or polyester and further alongside every other fibers. like quilts, comforters are generally laid higher than a top bed sheet (and sometimes after that blankets). Duvets are marginal form of quilt, traditionally filled like feathers, while in the past the late 20th century often made of synthetic fibres or down alternatives.
A comforter is sometimes covered for auspices and prolonged use. Comforter covers are same in principle to pillowcases, usually closed subsequent to zippers or buttons.

Some sets have a duvet and duvet lid (more popular in Europe) in area of a comforter and top sheet. More deluxe sets may supplement a bed skirt and pillows.
Comforters are usually used in the winter season in the manner of it is unquestionably cold, although a variety of alternating thicknesses means that they can be used in supplementary seasons as well, considering lighter examples inborn used in warmer weather. Due to the thickness of a comforter or the amount of down/feathers or additional filling it has, a person is insulated adjacent to cold.
