A good comforter provides you with the best comfort. It’s not enough to choose a comforter because it’s warm—also take into account your surroundings. For example, if you live in a warmer climate with mild winters, a microfiber comforter with a high fill power may feel too hot.
Microfiber, while a very soft material, doesn’t breathe as well as cotton. Plus, a higher fill power means more down or down alternative filling, leaving less room for airflow.
In contrast, a better option is a lightweight, low to medium fill power with a cotton shell. This type of comforter still provides a cozy feel, but it won’t trap as much heat and cause night sweats.
