Thoughts on organic wool duvet?

We are getting DS a new bed in a larger size (going from twin to queen), so we are replacing all of his bed linens. We're already getting organic sheets and an organic duvet cover, and I'm now thinking about what kind of duvet to put inside the cover. After doing a bit of web research, the organic wool duvet option looks appealing. Does anyone have one? Do you like it? Where did you order it from? Would you recommend that site? If you don't recommend an organic wool duvet, do you have any other allergy- and asthma-friendly suggestions?

TIA!

Re: Thoughts on organic wool duvet?

  • I haven't come across an organic wool duvet, but I really like this website for organic cotton textiles.  Here's their "bedroom organics" section:

    We have several sets of their hankies, and cotton undies.  They're so soft and well made.

  • Are you opposed to a synthetic-fill duvet?  I love my sleeping bag, which is synthetic, and i have known people with really great-seeming synthetic comforters.  It would be worth looking into, at least...

  • I'm not flat out opposed to the synthetic option, seeing as that's what he has now. I can't say that there's anything wrong with it, yet I also can't help but wonder if all of those synthetic chemicals that he inhales for 9 hours every day aren't contributing to the problem. I'm just hoping to find something a bit more natural with a few less chemicals. I wish we could afford an organic mattress as well, but that's well out of budget.
