You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

A duvet is a type of bedding, a soft bag which is usually filled with down or feather or both and used as a blanket. This originated in rural Europe and were made from down feather of the eider duck which is famous for its effectiveness as an insulator.
While a comforter like a duvet is also used as a blanket. The difference is that comforters are filled with natural or synthetic insulative materials and encased in a covering. They are commonly used with a set of sheets.

There is a main difference between a duvet and a comforter although the two are commonly mistaken as the same. A duvet is a "a soft flat bag filled with down, feathers, or a synthetic alternative, and protected with a removable cover, analogous to a pillow and pillow case." A comforter, on the other hand, is a type of blanket "intended to keep the user warm, especially during sleep, although they can also be used as mattress pads."
