Frequently asked

Is bamboo a good choice for dust mite allergy sufferers?
While no quilt fabric is a substitute for dust mite encasements, bamboo's breathability and moisture-wicking properties make it a comfortable choice for allergy-aware sleepers. Bamboo helps regulate temperature and reduce excess moisture — conditions that dust mites thrive in. For meaningful allergen reduction, pairing this quilt with a dust mite proof quilt encasement is the most effective step you can take.

What does the research say about quilts and dust mite allergies?
Published research consistently shows that allergen levels in quilts and quilt covers track overall bedroom allergen levels — meaning your quilt is part of the broader picture, not the whole answer. A Cochrane review found that single interventions in isolation show weaker results, while more recent research found that a comprehensive approach — combining mattress and pillow encasements, regular washing, humidity control and air purification — was associated with significantly greater odds of symptom improvement. Fabric choice alone is unlikely to make a meaningful difference without these other measures in place.

Should I use a quilt protector with this?
Yes. A dust mite proof quilt encasement creates a physical barrier between you and any allergens that accumulate inside the quilt fill over time. No matter how breathable or natural the fill, allergens will build up without an encasement. Browse dust mite quilt covers to find one sized for your quilt.

How often should I wash my quilt?
Every one to two weeks is the general recommendation for bedding used by allergy sufferers. Regular washing removes accumulated allergens from the cover fabric. Refer to the care label for the recommended wash temperature for this quilt before your first wash — and check whether that temperature is sufficient for your allergen reduction goals.

What's the difference between a quilt cover and a dust mite encasement?
A standard quilt cover is decorative and protects the quilt from surface soiling — but it is not a barrier against dust mites or their allergens. A dust mite encasement is made from tightly woven or membrane fabric specifically designed to prevent mites and allergens from passing through. If you have a dust mite allergy, an encasement is the functional product; a quilt cover is optional on top of that.

What's the single most important step for an allergy-aware bedroom?
Research points consistently to a comprehensive approach rather than any single product. The most effective setup typically includes:

Dust mite encasements for your mattress, pillows and quilt
Regular washing of all bedding
A dehumidifier to keep indoor humidity below 50%
An air purifier to reduce airborne allergen particles
Allergen cleaning products for surfaces that can't be washed frequently
