How much should you spend on a quality comforter? Expert insights

What's a smart amount to spend on a comforter? It really depends on your budget and what kind of comfort you’re looking for. Let’s break it down so you can shop with confidence.

Comforters come in different ranges. Entry-level down alternative comforters cost under $200 CAD. These work well for guest rooms or lighter use. If you want something for every night of the year, mid-range comforters, priced around $200 to $450 CAD, offer higher-quality down and better longevity. Then there are premium comforters that can cost upwards of $500 CAD, sometimes even exceeding $2,000 CAD, depending on factors such as fill power, size, and craftsmanship (see our premium comforter collection).

What makes a comforter worth more? The fill power (loft) is the most significant factor — e.g., we offer 600 loft Canadian standard goose down, 725 loft Canadian Hutterite goose down, 750 loft and 850 loft Hungarian goose down, and 950 loft Polish goose down. The higher the fill power, the more insulation and loftier the down, resulting in a better warmth-to-weight ratio and a fluffier feel. However, they can achieve the same warmth by different fill weights. The fabric count and quality of the shell also affect comfort and durability. Additionally, ethical sourcing, such as DOWNMARK and OEKO-TEX certifications, adds value and gives you peace of mind (learn about our certifications).
