TOG is a rating system that stands for Thermal Overall Grade, a unit of measurement to calculate the insulation of a product at a thermal level. Commonly utilised in the textile and bedding industry, duvets and blankets will be given a TOG rating to reflect the degree of warmth. The higher the numbers, the warmer it will be. Don't be fooled into wanting to highest TOG however as it can become too hot. Instead, opt for one similar to this that is an ideal multi-season layer that will keep you cosy through spring and autumn but may perhaps need changing for summer and winter where you may want a lower - and - higher TOG.

Microfibre is a polyester and nylon fibre used in many luxurious fabrics. The fibre is micro in size and is a multiple smaller than a typical human hair. The benefits of microfibre is that it can be hypoallergenic while the material is also partially breathable helping to retain an amount of heat while you sleep, helping to keep you of moderate temperature and proving great for UK climates.

Temperature regulation is important as it helps keep your body at a reasonable temperature when you sleep. Not too hot, nor too cold this gives you the perfect balance to ensure you sleep deeper for longer. Great for those who currently get sweaty at night.

We find that 60 degrees celsius is the perfect temperature for killing bacteria, viruses and stains. The setting is most often used in bedding and is the optimum amount of heat.
