Feeling chillier? There’s no doubt about it, autumn is here and with the change in season an important factor we should be thinking about is the tog rating of our duvets. It’s likely you’ve come across tog ratings before, but may not 100% understand what they mean.<\/p>\n
The tog rating of a duvet essentially tells us how warm it will keep us and as we covered in one of our recent blogs, Six Sleep Tips From Dr Nerina<\/a>, temperatures can have a big impact on how well we sleep.<\/p>\n So whether you’re on the hunt for a new duvet, are trying to improve your sleep or are wondering if your current duvet is suitable for the colder months, read on to find out all about tog.<\/p>\n What are tog ratings?<\/strong><\/p>\n A tog rating is a measurement of a duvet’s ability to trap warm air (otherwise known as thermal insulation). The lower the rating, the lower the level of insulation so the higher the rating, the toastier the duvet will be.<\/p>\n In general, tog values range from 4.5 to 13.5:<\/p>\n Choosing your duvet<\/strong><\/p>\n Here at QVC, we have an excellent range of duvets with various tog ratings, including plenty suitable for this time of year and the coming winter months.
