Essential University Bedding: Your Guide to a Cosy Uni Room
As you prepare for your big move to university, one of the most exciting (and sometimes overwhelming) tasks is setting up your new space. Whether you’re headed to university halls or moving into a shared house, having essential university bedding is key to making your room feel like home.
With so many options out there, how do you choose the best bedding that’s both comfortable and practical? Don’t worry; we’ve got you covered with all the back to Uni essentials you need!
Why University bedding matters
Your bed is the focal point of your Uni room. It’s where you’ll sleep, study, and maybe even binge watch Netflix. Having the right Uni room bedding is essential for a good night’s sleep and for creating a cosy space where you can relax and recharge. Plus, the right bedding can make your university room feel more like home.
The essentials for university halls
When you’re thinking about your bedding, consider these essentials for university halls:
- Duvet: This is your top layer of comfort. Choose a duvet that’s warm enough for winter but not too heavy for those early autumn nights, we recommend a 10.5 tog option. Look for an easy to clean duvet because, let’s be real, laundry day isn’t going to be your favourite day.
- Pillows: Don’t skimp on pillows! They’re crucial for a good night’s sleep and can even double up as extra back support when you’re sitting on your bed studying. For our perfect guide on pillows check out our blog “What are the best pillows” and find out what pillows we recommend according you your sleep position and preferences.
- Mattress Protector: University mattresses aren’t always the best, so a mattress protector can add an extra layer of comfort while also keeping things hygienic. We would always recommend having one. Take a look at our guide on mattress protectors.
- Mattress Topper: A mattress topper can significantly enhance your comfort, transforming even the most basic Uni bed into a cosy retreat. Uni room mattresses are often firm and worn, but with a good quality mattress topper adds an extra layer of softness and support. Find out more about mattress toppers in our handy blog “What Is A Mattress Topper?“
- Bed Sheets and Pillowcases: Choose bed sheets that are soft, durable, and easy to fit. Opt for breathable cotton or soft-touch microfibre, both are machine washable and tumble dry safe, making it simple to keep them fresh and cosy.
Best duvet for students
When it comes to choosing the best duvet for students, there are a few things to consider:
- Warmth: Make sure your duvet is warm enough for the winter months. Look for one with a tog rating that provides comfort all year round like a 10.5 tog.
- Ease of Care: As mentioned earlier, an easy to clean duvet is crucial. You don’t want to be struggling with a duvet that’s difficult to wash or dry.
We recommend the Silentnight Deep Sleep 10.5 Tog Duvet or the Snug Just Right 10.5 Tog Duvet, both affordable duvets, perfect for all year round use. Not forgetting our favourite Uni bedding must-have, the coverless duvet.
What is a coverless duvet?
A coverless duvet is a total game-changer in the world of student bedding solutions. But what is a coverless duvet? As the name suggests, a coverless duvet doesn’t require an additional duvet cover, it has one sewn in ready to go. It’s designed to be washed as one, making it a hassle-free duvet option for students.
Imagine not having to wrestle with your duvet cover every time you do laundry! A coverless washable duvet can be popped directly into the washing machine, saving you time and effort. Plus, it dries quickly, which is perfect when you need to get back to your bed as soon as possible.
A great choice for Uni bedding is the Silentnight Seersucker Coverless 10.5 Tog Duvet The set includes a duvet complete with a printed sewn on stylish seersucker cover and matching pillowcases. This coverless duvet is reversible, so you have two colour options in one. The covers are soft cosy and stylish, perfect for transforming your Uni room.
