Getting bedding that not only complements rooms with stylish designs and colours, but also ticks all the other essential boxes like washing well, being iron-friendly and, of course, nice to touch is important.
While there are many brands out there that sell bedding, Dunelm is known for its affordable but still high-quality options. Shoppers searching for a set that ticks all the right boxes can buy the Darla Floral Duvet Cover and Pillowcase Set for between £14-£34, depending on bed size.
The bedding, which comes in the shade Blush Pink or Sage Green, is available in bed sizes single to super kingsize and features a floral design and is crafted from 100% cotton. The bedding is said to have a timeless elegance and offers both comfort and durability.
According to the brand, the collection and bedding are also verified by OEKO-TEX and independently tested for harmful substances. It comes with a pillowcase set and is completely machine washable, meaning shoppers don’t have to worry about the bedding losing its colour or shape after a couple of washes.
For some alternative options, shoppers could look at the Home Essentials Soft Touch Grey Bedding Set – Double for £10 from Argos. This bedding has a sateen fabric finish, is made from 100% polyester and comes with two pillowcases also.
Another option is the Cambridge 200 Thread Count Duvet Cover – Cotton – Dusky Rose for £25 for a double size from Dusk. This set is made from a 200 thread count and comes finished with a dusky rose piping edge.
The Darla set from Dunelm, however, has a high 4.7 out of five-star rating online. One person said: “Really pretty bedding. Feels great in the bed. Washes well, easy to iron and excellent quality.”
Another person wrote: “Bedding at its best. Great quality, great price, recommend this product.” Some others disagreed, however, as one shopper said: “This duvet cover looks lovely on the bed, but creases very easily, therefore looking very rumpled after first use. Very disappointed as I searched for a new duvet cover for a while and I loved this design and colour of this one.”
A happier customer praised the duvet’s feel, saying: “Excellent value. I’m very pleased with the quality. It washes well and feels soft and comfortable.”
