Quick Answer: A complete bedding set includes a fitted sheet, flat sheet, pillowcases, duvet insert, and duvet cover. Start with quality sheets in the right size, a temperature-appropriate duvet, and a mattress protector to protect your investment. Mixing natural fibres like cotton and down creates the most breathable, comfortable sleep environment.
We stock about 40 bedding products at our Brantford showroom (441 1/2 West St) - duvets, sheets, mattress protectors, and pillow cases. Most customers spend $180-$450 for a complete queen bedding set depending on fill quality and fabric choice.
Down Duvets
Our Canadian Hutterite down duvets use loft ratings: 625 for most people, 700 for cold sleepers, 800-850 for extreme cold. The loft number tells you fill power - how much space one ounce of down fills. Higher loft means warmer and longer-lasting. Canadian Hutterite down costs $380-$580 but lasts 20+ years with dry cleaning and proper care.
Synthetic down alternative duvets run $89-$189 and you can machine wash them at home. Good for allergies or kids who spill things. They last 5-8 years versus 15-20 for real down. Check our duvet collection to compare.
Bed Sheets
We carry bamboo sheets ($99-$149), Egyptian cotton ($89-$139), microfiber ($49-$79), and French linen ($149-$229). Thread count matters less than people think - 400-600 is the quality range. Higher than 800 is often marketing fluff. Bamboo sleeps coolest, cotton is classic, microfiber is budget-friendly and wrinkle-resistant.
Deep pocket sheets (17-18 inch pockets) fit thick mattresses and pillow tops. Regular pocket (14-15 inches) works for standard mattresses. Queen sheet sets run $79-$189 depending on material. Our bed sheet collection has all sizes from twin to California king.
Mattress Protectors
Every mattress needs a waterproof protector ($59-$189) for warranty coverage and stain protection. We stock basic waterproof ($59-$79), cooling protectors with temperature regulation ($89-$129), and premium options with bed bug barriers ($139-$189). The protector pays for itself by extending mattress life 3-5 years. See our mattress protector options.
Complete Bedding Sets
We put together complete bedding packages: sheets, duvet, duvet cover, mattress protector, and pillowcases. Queen packages run $380-$680 depending on quality level. King packages are $480-$880. This saves you 10-15 percent versus buying pieces separately. Dorothy helps coordinate colors and materials so everything matches.
French linen bedding is our premium option - gets softer with every wash and lasts 10-15 years. The relaxed texture looks elegant. Prices are higher ($149-$229 for queen sheets) but the per-year cost works out better than replacing cheap sheets every 2-3 years.

Bedding Questions
Brad, Owner (since 1987): "After nearly 40 years in the sleep business, I can tell you that the bedding is just as important as the mattress. A great mattress under poor-quality sheets and a lumpy pillow is still a poor night's sleep. We help customers get the whole equation right."

Frequently Asked Questions
What bedding do I need for a complete bed setup?
A fully dressed bed needs: a mattress protector (protects the mattress), a fitted sheet, a flat sheet or top sheet (optional but traditional), pillowcases for each pillow, a duvet insert appropriate for the season, and a duvet cover to protect the insert and style the bed. Decorative pillows and shams are optional finishing touches.
What is the best order to layer bedding?
Start with the mattress protector directly on the mattress, followed by the fitted sheet. Add the flat sheet if you use one, then the duvet in its cover. Decorative pillows and shams go on top. The goal is to create layers you can adjust through the night: push the duvet back if too warm, pull it up if too cold.
How do I choose bedding for a hot sleeper?
Hot sleepers should prioritise breathable materials throughout the entire bed: bamboo or percale cotton sheets, a lightweight down or synthetic alternative duvet, and a moisture-wicking mattress protector. Avoid polyester sheets, thick synthetic duvets, and featherbed toppers. Proper airflow in the bedroom itself is also important.
How do I wash all my bedding efficiently?
Wash sheets and pillowcases weekly on the same day. Wash duvet covers every 2 to 3 weeks. Wash duvet inserts and pillows 2 to 3 times per year (or professionally clean down products). Having at least two sets of sheets makes laundry day seamless: one set on the bed while the other is being washed.
