    Just so you know. This is unhygienic as fuck if you sleep in the regularly. It’s basically how you get bed bugs.

      They’re called comforters and very common in many places. I rarely see duvets where I live. You just wash them periodically like anything else.

      Bed bugs need to be introduced to the home from a source somewhere and a duvet cover won’t help if they are.

      You get bed bugs by bringing infested items/animals/people into your home, not by sleeping in a bed with no duvet cover

      You mean dust mites? You get them regardless, but I agree that it’s nicer to reduce how often you need to wash the duvet, better for the environment as well.
