A Beginner’s Guide to Buying Bedspreads

Bedspreads are single-layer bedding toppers that cover the entire bed right upto the floor. The term bedspread includes all covers that go on top of the bed. They can be either thick or thin and are available in a variety of fabrics

A bedspread is an oversized sheet of cloth that covers the bed entirely to the floor. Commonly called quilted bedspreads, these light-weight, quilted covers decorate the bed. We can use quilted bedspreads as is or with a comforter to help us in both summers as well as winter.

Bedspread sets are five-piece sets that usually include a bed cover that covers the whole bed, two pillow covers, and two cushion covers. 

They are available in various patterns such as solid, printed, embroidered, etc., and multiple fabrics, including cotton, polycotton, suede, silk, poly silk, etc. A cotton bedspread is suitable in places with scorching weather. Polycotton works for areas with normal/cold weather. Similarly, silk is an excellent alternative for people who want to avoid hair falling and wish to add a touch of luxury to their rooms. 

Uses of Bedspreads:

A bedspread helps customers by:

  • Providing the bed with a cover and keeping it free from  dust;
  • Helping maintain the longevity of the bed sheet before  it has to be changed;
  • Keeping you comfortably warm in summer with a light  sheet;
  • Providing warmth in winter over blankets;
  • Tying the bedroom's look together and giving it a more  consistent look.

 Do's and Dont's:

Several factors need to be considered before buying bedspreads:

  • Examine if it is washable and can be cleaned easily;
  • Check if it is stain-proof;
  • It should be light-weight to keep you comfortable in  summer;
  • Check the dimensions so it can adequately cover your  bed;
  • Read about the return and replacement policies of the  brand you buy from; and
  • Read the reviews before you buy a product.

Using bedspreads with matching pillows and cushion covers brings a sense of luxury to your bedroom and subsequently makes it look very balanced in terms of looks and uniformity. An excellent value for money, these products are suitable for year-round use, i.e., their use is not restricted to a particular season, as is the case with blankets and cotton quilts. Available in both online and offline stores, bedspreads also help keep your skin healthy by keeping the dust away from the bedsheet and help keep you cozy at night subsequently bettering your quality sleep.
