The size of the comforter depends firstly on the size of your mattress and secondly on your height. The larger the person or mattress, the larger the comforter. The standard size is 135 x 200 cm. For people taller than 180 cm, we recommend a comforter length of 220 cm. Rule of thumb: your comforter should be at least 20 cm longer than you are tall. The feel-good size 155 x 220 cm is becoming increasingly important. This size is ideal for those who like to snuggle up.
Blankets filled with fine animal hair generally do not need to be washed as they have high self-cleaning properties. It is perfectly sufficient to air new wool or camel hair comforters properly. Even outside in damp air, as the fibers will then straighten out again after drying and regain their natural bulkiness. Cotton blankets are washable, but should not be spun or shaken out vigorously. Ideally, you should spread the blanket out on a clothes horse to dry. It will thank you for it.
