At PEDESTRIAN.TV, we independently choose and write about stuff we love and think you’ll froth too. We have affiliate partnerships so we might get a bit of money from any purchase you make based on our recs, cool? Cool. FYI – prices are accurate and items in stock at the time of posting.

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: The TL;DR

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.

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.

Best Expensive Doona: Sheridan Ultimate Dream 75/25 Medium Weight Quilt

Sheridan is renowned for their luxury homewares and bedding, and it doesn't stop at their doonas. The Ultimate Dream 75/25 Medium Weight 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 Quilt
