Silk duvet and pillow - waste of money
I have watched Ray on shoptv for some time promoting his silk duvets and pillows - I already owned a summer weight silk duvet which I purchased elsewhere and I enjoy using it in the heat of summer to stay cool.
My main 10.5 duck and down duvet needed replacing and Ray convinced me that his duvet would keep me warm in the winter although I don’t recall a tog rating being quoted but it was sold as an all year round duvet and he said it would keep you warm in the winter and cool in the summer.
I ordered the duvet and a silk pillow to go with it.
Arrived extremely quickly and the quality of the product seemed good but this duvet is not warm and cosy and I’ve been cold in bed - I resorted into attaching my 3.5 tog silk summer duvet to it to try and add some warmth.
I am still waking up in the early hours feeling cold- my previous duck and down was like sleeping under a cloud and I was always warm and cosy regardless of how cold it was so being cold in bed is a new and unpleasant experience.
I’m now going to purchase another duvet similar to my old one and will just use the silk one in the warmer months.
The silk pillow is nothing special and no better than the pillows I already have so glad I only bought one to try.
Overall this was a very expensive mistake and not an investment that I thought I was making- so be warned if you want a duvet to keep you warm in the winter unless you are a very overheated person this will not be the one for you.
