Best Comforters for 2025: Chosen by a Sleep Expert for All Seasons – USA All Americans NEWS™

Best Comforters for 2025: Chosen by a Sleep Expert for All Seasons

Caroline Igo/CNET

Our take: The Buffy Cloud comforter is a warmer, plusher pick. It’s perfect for cooler weather or all seasons if you don’t have any issues heating up at night. Even though I’m a hot sleeper, I’ve slept with this comforter for about a year now and don’t have any complaints (although, I do like to keep my room at a cooler temperature). I also sleep only with this comforter — no duvet cover, top sheet or other blankets. 

How it sleeps: The outside shell of the Buffy Cloud is made with eucalyptus fabric, which offers a softer and more breathable option than cotton. While I wouldn’t say it’s cool to the touch, it is more temperature-regulating than other down alternative comforters. Inside the Buffy Cloud is a soft, eco-friendly, certified-recycled fiber fill that gives the comforter a fluffy, lightweight and airy feel. It’s an ultra-cozy addition to any bed. I would recommend a duvet cover since washing this huge, fluffy comforter can be a pain. 

Pros:

  • Plush and warm 
  • Soft and breathable eucalyptus fabric 
  • Eco-friendly bedding option 

Cons: 

  • Not for people who want a down or a lighter comforter
  • Fabric can snag if you machine-dry

Additional details: 

  • Fill: Recycled fiber 
  • Shell material: Eucalyptus fabric 
  • Sizes: Twin/Twin xl, Full/Queen, King/Cal King
  • Care: Machine-washable 
  • Trial period: 50-night trial or 7-day free trial

Our take: The Rest Evercool Cooling comforter earned the top spot on my Best Cooling Comforters list. It’s one of the only comforters I’ve tested that’s truly cool to the touch thanks to its naturally cooling Tencel and Sorona materials. This is the best comforter for those who heat up during the night. 

How it sleeps: This comforter is thin and looks more like a blanket than fluffy bedding. Due to its materials, such as Tencel lyocell, the Rest Evercool Cooling comforter is naturally moisture-wicking and will help to keep hot sleepers at a good temperature all night. My boyfriend and I practice the Scandinavian sleep method at night, so he sleeps with this comforter while I use the Buffy Cloud. Like me, he’s a hot sleeper and hasn’t had any problems with night sweats. It has also held up against our pets and many washes. 

Pros:

  • Best for hot sleepers or anyone who heats up at night
  • Soft and very cool to the touch
  • Available in six colors (three are reversible)

Cons: 

  • Stitching tends to pull after many washes
  • Thin and wrinkles easily 
  • Not for cool sleepers or those who want a thick comforter

Additional details: 

  • Fill: Tencel and Sorona material
  • Shell material: Evercool Cooling fabric 
  • Sizes: Twin/Twin xl, Full/Queen, King/Cal King
  • Care: Machine-wash
  • Trial period: 30-night trial

Our take: Budget bedding is usually made of low-cost materials with a cheap polyester feel, but this is not the case when it comes to the Quince Premium Down Alternative comforter. It looks and feels similar to other more expensive comforters on the market. With a 100% cotton sateen shell, you can’t beat the price and quality.   

How it sleeps: The Quince comforter resembles a full-priced down comforter rather than a down alternative like the Buffy Cloud. It’s light, airy and on the thinner side, and the shell feels just like cotton covers found on down duvet inserts. The fill is microfiber but it doesn’t feel cheap. I tested the all-seasons fill option and the thickness is a happy medium for hot and colder weather. It also has corner loops if you decide to put a cover on it (which I recommend because washing might cause the fill to clump together). 

Pros:

  • You save about 50% compared to retail prices 
  • Three fill options: lightweight, all-season and ultra-warm
  • Hypo-allergenic microfiber fill and soft 100% cotton sateen cover

Cons: 

  • Needs regular fluffing to keep fill even 
  • Stuffing may clump together after many washes

Additional details: 

  • Fill: Microfibers
  • Shell material: 100% cotton sateen
  • Sizes: Twin, Full/Queen, King/Cal King
  • Care: Machine-wash
  • Trial period: 365-night trial

How we tested the best comforters 

Caroline Igo/CNET

At CNET, our sleep experts (myself included) have been testing mattresses and sleep products for years. From high-tech mattress accessories like the Eight Sleep Pod to cooling pillows, I’ve reviewed enough sleep products to know what’s worth the price and what’ll hold up over time.

I tested each comforter on this list for at least three weeks by sleeping with them, lounging around and thoroughly inspecting each one. I assessed every comforter based on its feel, material, fill, price, customization, care and trial period. I also considered how well each comforter would work for hot sleepers like myself. Some bedding, like the comforters from Buffy, Rest Evercool, Layla and Cozy Earth, I had for a year and still use today. 

What to consider when choosing the best comforter

If you’re just starting your comforter-buying journey, it’s easy to get overwhelmed. Here are a few aspects to keep in mind when searching for the best comforter for you. 

Material: How a comforter feels will largely depend on what it’s made from — both inside and out. In most cases, the shell material will be listed first, with the fill material often buried in the site description. The fill material is especially important to pay attention to if you have allergies. If that’s you, avoid materials like down; instead, look for a down alternative that’s both hypoallergenic and pillowy. 

Other popular comforter materials include cotton, microfiber, polyester, wool and silk. 

Fill power: Fill power is an industry term, limited to only down products. It refers to how much loft the comforter has. Fill power is a numerical value in the hundreds describing how many cubic inches the down can fill. In general, the higher the fill number, the better the quality and the fluffier the comforter will feel.

Construction: A comforter that’s made well will hold up longer than those cheaply constructed. We’ve all used comforters that seem fine when you look at them, but the filling has shifted into uneven clumps. Stitching patterns like the baffle box will help keep the fill in place and extend the life of your comforter. Look for extra threading around the edges and small stitching details, as these are also clues that a comforter has solid construction. 

Price: Your budget is one of the most important things to remember when shopping for a comforter. Just like mattresses, comforters come at every price. While plenty are affordable at under $100, there are more luxury options if you’re ready to spend closer to $450. 

Our CNET sleep experts found that the best brands of comforters include Buffy, Brooklinen, Rest, Quince, Garnet Hill, Cozy Earth, Layla and Sleep Number.

The best comforter materials include bamboo, silk, down, down alternative and cotton. Bamboo and silk are more breathable, while down and down alternatives are warmer and fluffier.

Well-made products always hold up better against the test of time. When shopping for comforters, look for threading around the edges and smaller details like the stitching pattern to ensure you get a well-constructed product. For example, a comforter with a baffle box pattern will keep the fill in place longer.
