3. Fabric: Usually fabrics above 40S, the finer the yarn count, the higher the price of the fabric.

Different brand duvet price difference
According to the above analysis, the difference between duvets of different brands is little by little.

1. Types of down: If duck down is used as goose down, low down is used as high down, or even chemical fiber is used as down, the price will not be comparable. The brand of Pinsijie will not be shoddy. The down we choose is a member of the China Down Industry Association all the year round.

2. Down weight: you can know it by weighing.
3. Fabric: Some fabrics that are not fleece-proof or of insufficient density have a price gap. Of course, there are differences in effects. If you use a fabric that is not dense enough, you may turn into a duck when you get up early in the morning. The duvets produced by our KXT home are all made of fleece-proof cloth of sufficient density. Any fleece is a quality problem, and Pinsijie will bear 100% quality responsibility. The fabric used is 100% cotton, and the dyes used in printing and dyeing also meet the international environmental protection standard OEKO-TEX STANDAD 100.

5. Accessories: including the lining inside the quilt, sewing thread, piping, trademarks, packaging bags, etc. The European environmental protection standard OEKO-TEXSTANDARD 100 has strict requirements for lining, sewing thread, piping, trademarks, etc., and has strict limit values for formaldehyde, heavy metals, and plastic compounds.
