The best-looking doona covers you can get for under $100

A doona cover is far more than just a jacket for your quilt. With so many available in various fabrics and colours, you can use them to express your aesthetic and curate a tranquil place to sleep.

A good doona cover will last years, especially if you can swap out your summer and winter quilts as the seasons shift. If you sleep with a top sheet, particularly in the winter, you can mix up the texture of your bedding and how you want it to look, rather than how it feels.

What should a doona cover cost?

What you'd pay for a good quilt cover is up to you, but most of them sit around the $200 mark. However, we're leading this list with options under $100. If, like most, you only buy a few doona covers in your life, the cost per use will diminish quickly, so sometimes it's worth investing a little more.

What material is best for a doona cover?

This will vary depending on you and your preference. If you're a top-sheet person, the fabric of your quilt cover shouldn't matter much, given you won't feel it on your skin. If you don't have a top sheet, you'll want something that doesn't irritate you, but again, this is different for everyone.

Some people find linen quite scratchy, while others find softer, silk-like fabrics and bamboo too cool on the skin. Since there's such a variety of fabrics to choose from, most of our choices are cotton – a great middle-ground fabric for bedding.

And if you want to know which fabric is best for bed sheets, we've got you covered here.
