Coverlets, Comforter Sets & Bedspreads

Refresh Your Bedroom With Beautiful Coverlets, Bedspreads & Comforter Sets

Warm, cosy comforters, bed coverlets and bedspreads turn plain beds into something special. But it's worthwhile knowing the differences so you can get the look and feel that you want. Be it a king, queen, double or single bed size, a traditional bedspread covers the entirety of the bed, including your pillows, often falling all the way to the floor. Whereas a coverlet is a smaller and lighter form of bedspread. Bed coverlets are traditionally quilted or woven, lighter in weight and available in a wide selection of colours, styles, sizes and materials - the most common fabrics being cotton and linen. Many people fold a quilted coverlet at the foot of the bed for an extra decorative flourish, and when teamed with pillows, cushions and bed linen, coverlets can give your bedroom design a refresh without the hefty price tag. Bedspreads are ideal for people who want a more elegant or traditional look in their bedroom, not to mention more coverage over the bed than a coverlet, doona or quilt.

Coverlets & Comforters FAQs

Why choose coverlets or bedspreads?

There are some distinct advantages to choosing coverlets over bedspreads and vice versa. Specifically, coverlets are perfect in warmer weather or for kids and adults who don't like the feeling of being weighed down under heavy bedding. They're also versatile, looking just as good draped over an armchair or sofa, similar to how you would style a throw. Bedspreads are traditionally heavier than a coverlet, so they're ideal for adults and kids who feel the cold at night or sleep better when they can maintain a warmer body temperature. Because they come in a range of patterns or prints, they're excellent for adding the final touches to kids themed bedrooms or making a bold, central design statement in the room.

Coverlet vs bedspread - what is the difference?

Coverlets are lighter and are commonly used as a decorative piece or for hot weather where a quilt is not required, in contrast, a bedspread is heavier, longer and provides warmth.

What is a comforter set?

A comforter is a decorative blanket to go on top of your bed and has light fill to provide some warmth. Comforters often come in a set with matching pillowcases for a cohesive look.

How to wash a coverlet?

Whether you're a bedspread, comforter or a coverlet fan, they are easy to care for and maintain, giving you plenty of sweet dreams and restful nights. Most coverlets are machine washable, always follow the care instructions on the label. It is recommended that you use cold water and a delicate wash cycle.
