Hands in the air if every time winter rolls around, you immediately reassess whether your current doona will get you through the next few months. The only thing that keeps you from shivering to your bones at night is the million blankets you layer on top of your comforter, only to wake up in a cold sweat from overheating. Cue frantically searching online for the best doonas, comforters, quilts, or whatever you want to call ’em.
So after making do with a polyester doona for frankly far too long (we don’t want to say how long, because it’s gross), we’re sure many of you are in the same boat and are looking to level up and buy something new that isn’t covered in drool stains — or worse.
There are a lot of great options out there, which is a blessing and a curse. How the hell are you meant to find the right one for you when you can’t go throwing money around willy nilly, trying them all? With out help, of course.
Here are a bunch of the best doonas and quilts in Australia.

The Best Doonas and Quilts in Australia
Best Year-Round Doona: Emma Sleep All Seasons Duvet
What you’re going to love most about the Emma Sleep All Season’s Duvet, aside from its all-year-round cosiness, is that it’s machine washable. So if you own a fur baby, or enjoy a little snack time in bed while you binge your show, you won’t end up with a stained doona.

Best Down Doona: Bonny Winter Quilt
Melbourne-based bedding company, Bonny, specialises in ethically sourced down doonas. The Winter Quilt will keep you perfectly toasty, especially if the cozzie livs is forcing you to live without a heater in your cold, dark, sharehouse. But if you’re someone who overheats easily, you can always swap to the All-Rounder or Summer quilt.

Best Cheap Doona: Anko Medium Warmth All Seasons Quilt
Who doesn’t love a Target bargain? We can confirm that if you’re someone who just wants an affordable doona without all the fancy bits and bobs, this is it.
It’s a medium-warmth, all-season doona so if you’re lazy like us, you don’t have to bother changing it over when winter ends.

Best Expensive Doona: Sheridan Deluxe Feather & Down 2-In-1 Quilt
Sheridan is renowned for their luxury homewares and bedding, and it doesn’t stop at their doonas. The Deluxe Feather & Down Two-In-One Quilt may have you gawking at the price tag, but it’s well worth the investment. It comes with two quilts — one 75/25 and one 50/50 white goose feather and down fill — that can be clipped together or separated so you don’t overheat or freeze as the seasons change.

Best Wool Doona: Minijumbuk Everyday Australian Wool Quilt in White
The Minijumbuk Everyday Wool Quilt can only be described as the perfect all-rounder. From being applicable to all and every season (even the hottest of QLD summers to the cold single-digit degree winter nights), it does what it says on the box, which is regulating body temperature throughout the seasons.
The doona is the perfect mix between providing enough weight to feel luxurious, but it’s not heavy enough to make you feel like your chest is being compressed.
Best Bamboo Doona: Ettitude Bamboo Comforter
If you’re absolutely obsessed with bamboo sheets, you’ll love the Ettitude Bamboo Comforter. It’s incredible for regulating body temperature, and you’ll feel like you’re sleeping on a cloud.
It’s lightweight, breathable, and comfy as all hell. You can also choose between a summer or winter weight, depending on whether you’re a hot or cold sleeper.
Best Winter Doona: Downtime Luxury High Loft Quilt
While down is a great winter option due to its lightweight warmth, it’s not for everyone. The Downtime Luxury High Loft Quilt is a premium alternative, using high loft fibre filling to provide a down-like feel and level of comfort. Hot tip: Adairs Linen Lovers save 25 per cent off quilts, so even though the sign up fee is $20 for two years, it pays itself off immediately.

Best Two-In-One Quilt: Linen House All-Seasons 2-In-1 Quilt
Two-in-one quilts are the perfect solution for people who run hot in summer and freeze their ass off in winter, and this one from Linen House works a treat for you indecisive folk. Both quilts have a cotton outer and polyester fill, one with 200 GSM, the other 250 GSM. You’ll be snug as a bug!
