Featherbeds are relatively lightweight, promote comfortable sleep, and regulate body temperature for a sound night's sleep. Getting enough rest promotes the growth of new cells, reduces stress, and refreshes the mind and body.
Because a featherbed is so comfortable, (some people compare it to sleeping on a cloud), the benefits of sleeping on a featherbed are considerable. Using a featherbed can also help reduce energy bills. It provides warmth during the winter months by trapping body heat and, because air is able to circulate through its loft, a featherbed will also keep you cool in the summer.
We recommend featherbed covers because they can be washed much more often than can featherbeds. Too-frequent washing (even dry cleaning) can compromise the fill in your featherbed. However, featherbed covers can be laundered along with the sheets and pillowcases. This keeps the featherbed fresh as well.
