The 9 Best Comforter Sets of 2024, According to Testing and Research

To find the best comforter sets, we tested several products in our lab and spent a significant amount of time researching other options. We also consulted two experts to learn more about what to look for when shopping for comforter sets.

The Brooklinen Luxe Sateen Move-In Bundle comforter set includes 11 pieces, all of which make it possible to upgrade your bedding from start to finish. With fabrics that are OEKO-TEX certified for chemical safety, the set includes one fitted sheet, a flat sheet, duvet cover, four pillowcases, one comforter, two pillows, and a silk eye mask.

The Brooklinen Down Alternative Comforter impressed us during testing. It’s made of a soft cotton sateen shell and recycled PET microfiber fill, with a baffle box construction that keeps the fill evenly distributed. During our testing, we loved that it felt lightweight while still feeling luxurious. It also hit the sweet spot when it came to keeping us feeling warm, but not stifled.

This comforter set comes with Brooklinen’s Luxe Sateen Sheets, which are made using 480 thread count of long-staple cotton. They’re soft and smooth, and have a slightly luminous finish that adds just a bit of sheen to your bedding. The bundle is available in multiple colors, including graphite and steel oxford stripe, window pane, graphite, cream, blue tide, willow, beach grass, and white.

You are also given the option of down, down alternative, and memory foam for your bed pillows, which come with firm, mid-plush, or plush support and in a standard or king size. We love that this set comes with four pillowcases, as many sets only come with two.

We love that this is a customizable comforter set, so you can make decisions about how you sleep, the support you need, and the design you’d like. It is an investment, but taking into account the quality, and the company’s 365-day warranty, it’s worth the price.

While the sheets can be washed on cold in your washing machine, the comforters are not meant to be washed frequently. Instead, spot clean or dry clean as needed, and hang the comforter outside on a dry day, giving it a good shake to get the dust out of it.

Key Terms to Know

  • Sewn-through construction: A sewn-through construction means the top and bottom layers of fabric are sewn directly together in patterns (such as squares or ovals) to create small pockets of fill. Comforters or duvets with a sewn-through construction are typically flatter, lighter, and more affordable than baffle-box constructions.
  • Baffle-box construction: A baffle-box construction is more three-dimensional. Vertical strips of fabric are sewn in between the top and bottom layers to create boxes for the fill. This helps the fill stay in place, and it creates a loftier, fluffier comforter. Baffle-box comforters or duvets tend to be more expensive due to the additional labor and materials.
  • Shell: A comforter shell is the top and bottom layers of fabric that surround the fill.
  • Fill: This refers to the material inside the shell. Down, down alternative, cotton, or polyester are common fill materials.

Best Splurge

Cozy Earth Deluxe Bedding Bundle

  • This comforter can only be spot cleaned or dry cleaned.

This comforter can only be spot cleaned or dry cleaned.

After testing it in our lab, the Cozy Earth Comforter with Silk Fill Set felt like the most luxurious choice because of its high quality and breathability. The set includes a duvet, a comforter, two pillowcases, a top sheet, a fitted sheet, and two silk pillows.

While testing, we noted that this comforter is not made with sewn-through or baffle-box construction; rather it has one even layer of fill that is held together with stitching around the edges. We did not notice the fill shifting at all, despite not having baffle-boxes or stitching to keep it in place.

It’s also worth noting that this comforter didn’t make any noise while tossing and turning during testing. We also appreciate that the fill is made of mulberry silk, which is naturally temperature regulating. We found it to have a medium weight, which makes it worth the splurge because you can use it as an all-season comforter.

This deluxe bedding bundle comes with a bamboo sheet set and duvet cover, which come in many colors, and both are made from 100% premium viscose from bamboo, which is soft and smooth to the touch.

They’re also temperature regulating, and get softer with each wash. While testing, we found that it was very easy to insert the duvet into its cover, and the duvet insert was smooth and cool to the touch.

Keep in mind that, while the sheets and duvet cover can be washed on cold in your washing machine, this comforter cannot be washed. It is suggested that you spot clean or dry clean only.

You’ll also want to use the included duvet cover because without the use of it, the manufacturer's extended warranty will not protect your comforter.

Best Cotton

Cotton is a naturally breathable, lightweight, and moisture-wicking fiber, making it a great material for bedding. The Buffy Cloud Comforter Set includes a comforter, a top sheet and fitted sheet, two pillow cases, a duvet cover, and two pillows.

The sheet set is made of 100% cotton, which softens over time, and it’s a strong and durable material—it doesn’t pill, tear, or fade. The duvet cover is made of the same material, and helps to keep your comforter clean, as the cover keeps the comforter itself from coming into direct contact with your skin.

We love that it has corner ties that keep your comforter in place, so there is no shifting of the comforter inside the duvet throughout the night. When we put the duvet cover on the comforter, it was an easy and seamless process.

We appreciated the light and pillowy feel of the comforter during testing. After tossing and turning for 10 minutes, we were pleased to find that none of the fill had shifted and wasn’t lumpy. We found that the weight and material was enough to keep us warm without making us feel too hot or uncomfortable.

The fill is made of 100% recycled polyester, which is hypoallergenic. It has a sewn-through construction, which helps the fill to stay in place. Plus, it is machine washable, setting it apart from many other comforters, which often cannot be machine washed due to their size or fill.

We love that this comforter set comes with two pillows, which are available in standard or king size, and in soft, medium, and firm. Keep in mind that there are limited colors available—white, cream, a dark blue, light gray, and navy—so your design options may be limited.

Product Details: Size: Twin, twinXL, full/queen, king, California king | Material: 100% cotton percale, eucalyptus lyocell, 100% recycled polyester fill | Number of Pieces Included: Eight

During testing, we found that the fill became lumpy in spots, and needed to be manipulated back into shape.

After testing, the Ugg Ava Stripe Comforter Set was one of our favorites. Its striped pattern is reversible, and the comforter itself was lightweight and comfortable. It comes with a comforter and two pillow shams, which add cohesion to your bedding design.

Pena says that this kind of comforter set can add “visual interest” to your room. “We are seeing a return of both color and texture in recent bedroom trends,” she says. “Things like ruching, pleating, and embroidery can liven up a room.”

We were impressed during testing when we found the filling of this comforter to be fluffy and substantial, and the outer shell to be super soft. The outer shell is made of 100% polyester textured faux fur and has solid micromink on the other side.

Though we could feel the contours of the stitched areas of the outer shell, we found that the stitching was not rough at all, and the comforter remained completely comfortable throughout testing. However, the fill did get a little lumpy after we tossed and turned under the comforter, but it was easy enough to move back into place with our hands.

When it came to breathability, we discovered that this is a great comforter for warmer months since it is fairly lightweight. It’s also machine washable, which is not always the case with comforter sets as they are often too bulky to wash and dry.

If you’re looking for a faux silk comforter set to lend some luxury to your bedroom, the Madison Park Amherst Collection Faux Silk Comforter is an ideal choice for the job.

It has everything you need to transform your bedding: two shams, three decorative pillows, a bed skirt, and a comforter. We tested this comforter set in our lab, and were impressed by its consistent filling and durability.

During testing, we found that this comforter is a good all-season choice, as it neither cools nor overheats, and is not too heavy. After tossing and turning beneath the blanket, the fill remained evenly distributed and did not shift, no matter how hard we tossed, turned, or shook the blanket.

Keep in mind that the outer shell of this comforter, which is made of 100% polyester, is not as soft or smooth as actual silk. We found during testing that it is a bit rougher than natural silk.

For those whose goal it is to add texture and dimension to their bedding, it’s a great choice that doesn’t break the bank. It’s also available in several different colors, so you can choose the option that best matches your bedroom style.

There are multiple gingham and plaid options to choose from, as well as stripes and embroidered chevron.

In order to keep your comforter set looking new, machine wash on cold using the gentle cycle and either tumble dry on low or hang dry. Because the comforter is filled with microfiber, you don’t have to worry about it getting damaged in the wash. The quilted pattern sewn into the comforter also keeps the filling distributed evenly.

The comforter, which is made out of polyester and brushed microfiber, is a lightweight comforter, so it’s a good choice for the warmer months.

The Threshold Washed Cotton Sateen Comforter and Sham Set looks like one you’d find in a hotel room. The Threshold Washed Cotton Sateen Comforter and Sham Set includes two pillow shams and a comforter, all made out of 100% cotton fabric with a sateen construction.

Decorated with a quilted style, this crisp white comforter is classic enough to blend in with whatever decor you’ve chosen for your room, while leaving it light and airy.

We love the slightly tufted style of this white comforter set, which gives it some texture and dimension, while also keeping the filling evenly distributed. If white isn’t your style, it also comes in seven other colorways including sage, light gray, blush, and black.

The comforter is made of a midweight fabric that keeps you warm, but not overheated, all year round, and its sateen construction makes the comforter set feel soft and ultra-comfy. The set is OEKO-TEX certified, which means that it doesn’t contain any harmful chemicals. The 250 thread count comforter contains fill material that is 100% polyester, which means it is machine washable.

In order to care for this comforter, machine wash, and tumble dry. Cotton is a tricky fabric to work with, so be careful not to dry it on too high of a temperature. You can iron the material as needed—cotton can be easily wrinkled.

Best Farmhouse

The best farmhouse comforter set comes from the king and queen of the farmhouse aesthetic themselves: Chip and Joanna Gaines. The Hearth and Hand with Magnolia Pickstitch Stripe Comforter Set includes three pieces: The comforter and two matching shams.

It’s available in a full/queen or king size. It comes in three, neutral colors that will fit in with any farmhouse aesthetic: twilight taupe, railroad gray, and sterling blue.

We love the comforter’s pickstitch textured stripes because, from afar it may look like a neutral comforter set, but up close it adds texture and dimension to your space. This means that it can fit into your existing decor while still making a statement of its own. Keep in mind that the embroidered pattern runs a risk of pulling.

The comforter set is great for year-round use because it’s made of soft, lightweight fabric—made of 75% polyester and 25% linen—and 100% polyester fill. The backing material is 65% polyester and 45% cotton. If you run hot while you sleep, this comforter is breathable, so it keeps you cool, but if you’re someone who runs cold while they sleep, this is an ideal comforter set for the warmer months.

It’s also certified Standard 100 by OEKO-TEX, which means that it has been independently tested against and does not contain any chemicals that were deemed harmful, so you can sleep well knowing you’re safe.

To launder, machine wash in cold water and tumble dry.

This option from Cozy Lux is our favorite choice for a comforter set with sheets, as it's an affordable option that comes with two pillow shams, a fitted sheet, a top sheet, and two pillow cases. It also comes in a range of colors—white, black, gray, light gray, green, and pink—so you can upgrade your bedding to match your style.

The front of the comforter is a seersucker texture, while the underside of the comforter is smooth. This provides a nice addition to your space without adding too much noise or taking away from other statement pieces in your room.

The comforter also uses solid stitching, which prevents bunching. If you are someone who moves around while sleeping, the fitted sheet features a deep, 16-inch elastic pocket to help keep the sheet in place.

This comforter set uses 100% microfiber, which is a synthetic filling that is machine washable. Cleaning this set is easy—simply wash this comforter in cold water on a gentle cycle, and tumble dry it on low heat or dry it in the sun.

Keep in mind that, while this comforter set is great for sleepers who tend to run hot, it is a lightweight comforter, and so if you’re someone who gets cold easily, another option on our list may be better suited for you.
