Abstract: Different seasons have different requirements for the types and materials of bedding. Faced with so many types of home textiles, how should we choose products according to our own needs? Below, we have compiled some tips for choosing bedding in different seasons for you, let’s take a look! Spring bedding: The temperature changes greatly in spring. It is very troublesome to keep changing the quilt every day to adapt to different weather and temperatures. You may catch a cold accidentally. Therefore, there is also a certain emphasis on what bedding to use in spring. How to choose specifically?
What kind of quilt should you wear in spring (1) Cotton quilt
The quilt in China refers to a cotton quilt. This kind of cotton quilt is made of pure plant fiber, which has no moisture and is not easy to breed bacteria. Moreover, the snow-white texture does not require rinsing or dyeing, and it does not produce irritating odors. Especially the solid feeling of cotton can make us feel intimate and warm.
(2) Silk quilt
Silk is known as the "Queen of Fibers". Silk quilt uses pure natural protein fiber, which has the effect of promoting sleep. Silk can reduce thermal conductivity, so its thermal insulation effect is significant, which is just suitable for use in late spring and cold seasons. And it has good breathability and can play an anti-mite and anti-bacterial role.
(3) Down quilt
Down quilt has an erratic feeling, good fluffiness, and is durable, not easy to deform and harden. It is dry and comfortable when used in winter, and can also wick away sweat and moisture in summer. Its unique softness can also stimulate the central nervous system of the human body, help us fall asleep quickly, and can also have a beauty effect!
Attention when purchasing spring quilts
(1) The lighter the quilt, the better. If the quilt is too heavy, it will feel oppressive and cause the body to sweat. A quilt that is too light will cause light sleep and poor sleep quality. And because the environment you live in is different, the type of quilt you choose is also different. For example, if the humidity in the south is too high, you need to choose fluffy and breathable quilts; if the north is too dry and cold, you need to choose thick and warm quilts.
(2) When choosing a quilt, touch is very important. The touch here refers not only to the feeling of touching the palm, but also to pressing. If the fluffy quilt can bounce up quickly after being pressed, it will neither be easily deformed nor easily velvet when used later.
(3) The workmanship of the stitches is also particularly important. For duvets and silk quilts, filling leakage often occurs, so in order to prevent filling leakage, try to choose quilts that have been quilted or fixed with squares, so as to avoid velvet drilling and The occurrence of thread drilling.
Spring Quilt Cover Spring is a season with large temperature differences between morning and evening. Therefore, when sleeping at night, a pure cotton type set is more suitable; pure cotton has the advantages of high comprehensive performance in breathability, moisture absorption, and warmth retention. Avoid catching cold at night and affecting your sleep due to improper use of bedding.
Tips for purchasing pure cotton quilt covers:
(1) Burning method: This method is more direct. Light the cloth strips with fire. If there is no black smoke, it means it is pure cotton. , if there is smoke, it means other chemical fiber ingredients are added to it. Although this method is straightforward, the verification effect is very clear. However, for some people who are not experienced enough, they may not be able to tell the difference. It is recommended that when purchasing, it is best to let the store staff operate it, so that you can feel the material more intuitively.
(2) Touch method: The feeling of pure cotton quilt cover is different from that of quilt covers with other ingredients. Generally speaking, pure cotton fabric has a warm feeling. If there is chemical fiber, In terms of ingredients, it feels a little cool to the touch. However, this kind of experience is subtle, and it mainly depends on experience. Many older people can tell whether it is pure cotton at a glance, but generally we can also experience the difference through the feel. It is best to compare when touching, so that you can make a better judgment. How to identify a pure cotton quilt cover
(3) Smell method: The quilt cover does not smell like anything else. If other ingredients are added to the fabric, there will be a special smell if you smell it carefully. When choosing a quilt cover, you can try it out and you can find the difference by carefully identifying it. Because the chemical fiber component will give off an industrial smell, it is easier to detect.
(4) Washing method: Cotton cloth will shrink when washed, that is, the actual size will become smaller than the original after washing.
In order to avoid this situation, many home textile products now add certain chemical fiber components into them, so that the quilt cover will not shrink easily.
(5) Tear method: Pick up the fabric and tear it hard with both hands. If there are some burrs on the quilt cover, then the quilt cover is pure cotton. If there is no response after tearing it hard, then this quilt cover is probably It’s time to add other elements.

It contains the highest "silk volume void" in the fiber, which can reduce the thermal conductivity in cold weather, and its warmth retention is better than that of leather and leather. Cotton can discharge excess heat when the weather is hot, so that the temperature inside the quilt will never be too high. At the same time, because of its light material, it can reduce the pressure on the heart and blood vessels during sleep, making you sleep more comfortable, sweet and healthy.

Autumn and winter bedding In autumn and winter, the cold is getting stronger, and the four-piece bed sets are changed with the changes of the seasons. Many people have such doubts about what bedding is good in autumn and winter. Below, I recommend five types of bedding suitable for autumn and winter to warm you up in the cold season.
Electric blanket Electric blanket, also known as electric mattress, is a kind of contact electric heating appliance. It woven or sews special soft cable-type electric heating elements with standard insulation performance into the snake shape. In the blanket, heat is emitted when electricity is applied.
It is mainly used to increase the temperature in the bed for heating purposes when people sleep. It can also be used to remove moisture from bedding. It consumes less power, has adjustable temperature, is easy to use, and is widely used. It has a history of more than 100 years.
At present, a new type of non-radiation electric heating blanket has obtained a national patent. Pregnant women, children, and the elderly can use non-radiation electric heating blankets with confidence.
How to choose an electric blanket:
(1) Look at the fabric of the electric blanket. It feels soft, has no odor, and has no black cotton sandwich when exposed to light.
(2) Look at the electric blanket appliance. The control appliance is beautifully made, the power cord is of sufficient length, the plug and wire body have the CCC mark, and the electric blanket wiring is safe and solid.

The instructions, certificate, quality tracking card and the serial number of the electric blanket must be consistent, and the timing test data of the electric blanket must be tracked.
(4) Look at the fever. The high-end heating temperature is slightly higher than the human body temperature, and the low-end heating temperature is the same as the human body temperature. It feels warm and comfortable, rather than a temperature-adjusting and hot feeling.
What kind of winter blankets are there? Blankets, as a type of bedding, play a great role in keeping warm. Blankets are mostly made of animal fibers or chemical fibers such as acrylic and viscose fibers, and some are made of blends of animal fibers and chemical fibers.

(2) Depending on the use, it can also be used as a bed blanket, lap blanket, beach blanket, etc.
(3) Blankets can also undergo special finishing: flame-retardant blankets, antibacterial finishing, negative ion finishing, etc.
Blanket material
(1) Polyester: Polyester fiber, durable, wrinkle-resistant and easy to iron. Polyester fabric has poor hygroscopicity, feels stuffy when worn, and is easily charged with static electricity and contaminated with dust, affecting its appearance and comfort. However, it is very easy to dry after washing, and the wet strength hardly decreases and does not deform. Polyester blankets also have good heat resistance, light resistance, etc.
(2) Acrylic fiber: Polyacrylonitrile fiber has excellent properties. Because its properties are close to wool, it is called "synthetic wool". Acrylic fiber has good elasticity and good shape retention. Although its strength is not as good as polyester and nylon, it is 1 to 2.5 times higher than wool. The light resistance of acrylic fiber is the best among all synthetic fibers. After being exposed to the open air for one year, the strength only decreases by 20%.
(3) Nylon: The Chinese name of synthetic fiber nylon, also called "nylon" and "nylon", that is, polyamide fiber. It has good strength and wear resistance, ranking first among all fibers. The hygroscopicity of nylon fabric is better than that of synthetic fiber fabrics. Nylon has poor ventilation and air permeability and is prone to generate static electricity.
(4) Spandex: polyurethane elastic fiber, mainly made of elastic fabrics. It can be used to make elastic parts of various underwear, swimwear, tights, jeans, sportswear, belts, etc. Clothing made of spandex is comfortable to wear, adapts to the deformation needs of various parts of the body, and reduces the feeling of restraint on the body.
(5) Vinylon: Vinylon is the trade name of polyvinyl acetal fiber, also called vinylon. Its performance is close to that of cotton, and it is known as "synthetic cotton". It is the most hygroscopic variety among existing synthetic fibers. Vinylon was made in Germany in the 1930s, but it is not resistant to hot water and is mainly used for surgical sutures.
(6) Animal fiber: mainly including wool, mohair, rabbit hair, cashmere, camel hair, yak hair, etc. Among the many blanket materials, animal fiber blankets are the most popular and best one. The price is also very expensive. Animal fiber blankets have a good thermal insulation effect and are very soft and comfortable in contact with human skin. The animal fiber blankets are densely woven, have good elasticity, and are very durable.

Disadvantages: Quilts are bulky, prone to moisture and breed bacteria. Cotton needs to be fluffed once a year to keep it fluffy, but masters of cotton fluffing are rare.
(2) Down quilt
The quilt core is made of duck and goose down. Down is an animal protein fiber with better thermal insulation than plant fiber (cotton). The most common one on the market is white duck down quilt core, and the more advanced ones include goose down. The quality of a duvet mainly depends on the size of the down duvet. The bigger the down duvet, the better.
Advantages: soft and warm, elastic, relatively high fluffy, prevents rheumatism.

Fiber quilt is also called "porous quilt" or "space quilt" because its fiber tubes have uniform holes, and the holes are filled with air. Appear fluffy. According to the number of holes, quilts can be divided into four-hole quilts, seven-hole quilts and nine-hole quilts. The higher the number of holes, the higher the comfort and fluffiness.
Advantages: High fluffiness, breathable, fiber holes can discharge moisture to keep you dry, can isolate dust mites and bacteria, easy to maintain.
Disadvantages: The warmth retention is relatively average, it is easy to deform, easily generates static electricity, affects the quality of sleep, and is not friendly to people prone to allergies.
(4) Wool quilt
The quilt core is made of sheep fur. Wool is a natural thermostatic material, which also means that quilts made of wool have good thermal insulation properties. In addition, goat cashmere is often made into quilts. Its functions of warmth retention, moisture absorption, and moisture removal are better than those of sheep wool quilts, but the price is particularly expensive.
Advantages: Good next-to-skin effect, antibacterial and dust mite-proof, can absorb human sweat and discharge it into the air, keeping the sheets dry.
Disadvantages: Poor softness and easy shedding. In addition, wool will have a peculiar smell when it gets wet, and people who are sensitive to odors will have difficulty adapting.

No matter what kind of fabric it is, smoothness and softness are the reflection of high quality. Touch the fabric with your hands to feel it. If you are not sure, you can touch other quilts more and the feeling will appear naturally.
A good quilt will not become lumpy and has an even thickness. Press the quilt with your hands to feel the thickness, and see if it returns to normal after 2 minutes. If it returns, it means it is not stiff and elastic, and you can also see whether there is dust overflow.
Grasp the inside and outside of the quilt with both hands, and feel the smoothness of the fabric when rubbing it. There is no astringency and it is relatively smooth, which means the quilt is of good quality.
Look at the pattern, workmanship and color of the quilt. If the pattern is exquisite, the workmanship is fine, there are no loose threads or threads, and the filling has no impurities, it is a good quilt.

Giving people a warm feeling, it has now become a common accessory for home use and decoration and a must-have item for car decoration.
(1) Pillow material
Chemical fiber pillow: This is a pillow made of ordinary artificial fibers. Since the chemical fiber material is not very breathable, it will easily deform and form lumps after being used for a long time. The pillow lacks elasticity and is uneven. Therefore, it is recommended that when purchasing pillows, you should not choose such cheap but impractical pillows.
Latex pillow: Latex has good elasticity, is not easy to deform, and has strong support. It is said that latex can change the head shape of children whose bones are developing, and it does not contain dust, fiber and other allergens that cause respiratory allergies. Some latex pillows also have the effect of massaging and promoting blood circulation. Latex pillows are ideal pillows, but they are also more expensive.
Down pillow: A good down pillow should use larger down, which has better fluffiness, can provide better support for the head, and will not deform due to long-term use. And down has the advantages of being light, breathable, and not stuffy. Down pillows are pillows made of fine materials, but the disadvantage is that they cannot be washed.
PE elastic tube pillow: The elastic tube pillow has the characteristics of anti-mildew, no moisture absorption, light weight, good elasticity, no collapse, flat and soft, and long service life. It is the best filling for pillows and pillows now. The PE elastic tube is made of conformal materials, which is soft and comfortable, and will not be as hard as traditional pillows.

Material: When purchasing pillows, you should pay most attention to the materials used. According to the materials made, pillows can be divided into cotton and peach skin. , silk and other pillows. Pillows made of different materials give people different feelings, and different people will favor pillows made of different materials. Peach skin pillows are generally considered to be softer and more comfortable.
Color: Color is the primary factor for people to understand things. For pillows, color is their biggest selling point. In a cold car environment, colorful pillows can bring a very good adjustment effect. The combination of intellectual and elegant gray and smoky pink; the romantic yellow as a foil.
From the most popular fashion colors such as orange, orange, bright blue, pink and purple, it can be seen that pillows with bright and attractive colors are always the first choice for people.
In order to make the bed more comfortable in winter, many families usually use mattresses and mattresses together. A mattress is a soft cushion between the mattress and sheets, which has a certain degree of elasticity and elasticity. The supporting force assists in supporting the human body on the mattress, and improves the simple supporting feeling brought by the mattress, improves the comfort during sleep, and improves the quality of sleep.
What material is the best for mattresses?
(1) Pure cotton mattress
Advantages: 100% cotton fabric, soft and comfortable, more skin-friendly, warm enough
Disadvantages: After using for a long time, cotton will easily Tightened, no longer fluffy
Price: around 300
(2) Fiber mattress
Advantages: good fluffiness, no mold, low price< /p>
Disadvantages: poor air permeability, poor hygroscopicity, easy to absorb dust
Price: around 200
Although pure cotton mattresses are not as fluffy as polyester fiber , but it is better than fiber in other aspects such as warmth retention and durability, and its service life is also longer. Fiber mattresses play a good insulation and fluffy role due to the air in the cavity. In addition, synthetic fibers lack It has the conditions for bacteria to breed, so it will not be moldy or infested by insects. However, it lacks breathability and will cause certain harm to the human body after sleeping for a long time. Comparing the two, pure cotton mattress is the more worthy choice of mattress fabric.
