Here at Clever, we’ve long been in search of the best eco-friendly bedding around, and if you ask us, organic comforters are some of the best options to start with. Why the struggle? First of all, finding high-quality bedding at a reasonable price is difficult on its own (one of the reasons so many direct-to-consumer start-ups have tried their hand in the space), and adding in sustainable specifications can quickly send costs skyrocketing. Besides, there’s a lot of confusing language and branding around manufacturing practices that can make purchasing decisions even more difficult, whether you're looking for fair trade certified (FSC) items or Oeko-Tex fabrics. Here’s one thing we can set straight: Comforters and duvets are different. An organic duvet typically consists of two pieces (an insert and a cover) while an organic comforter doesn’t require an insert—it’s easy to mix the two up.
And since we all could use a comfortable, serene space to sleep and recharge, why not peruse some more sustainably manufactured bedding? Whether you prefer lightweight to heavy or eucalyptus over merino wool, we’ve got the perfect natural material cuddle companion for you.
To help guide your bedding journey—whether you’re looking for something to top your twin XL, queen-size mattress, or a sprawling California king—we’ve rounded up the best organic comforters best suited to help you hide under the covers (free of harsh chemicals). Happy checkout and sweet dreams, and remember: You’re also doing something good for the planet! Now all you have to do is update your pillowcases, bath towels, and, of course, treat yourself to a new sheet set.
Editor's note: Prices below reflect queen comforter sizes and all-season fill. In many cases, there are other sizes and fill powers available.
Brooklinen’s take on an organic comforter has over 500 five-star reviews and comes in a lightweight, all-season, or ultra-warm version. Packed with eco-friendly, recycled PET fibers encased in a 100% cotton sateen shell, we think this duvet is an all-around solid pick, whether you’re in the market for just a light layer for the spring and summer or something more heavy-duty for the colder months.
Sizes available: Twin/twin XL, full/queen, king/Cali king
Weights available: Lightweight, all-season, ultra-warm
The eco-friendly credentials of a Buffy comforter are many: The fill is made with recycled plastic, it’s sewn with recycled thread, the primary fabric is eucalyptus sourced from regenerative forests, and Buffy is developing a closed-loop supply chain that’ll turn old comforters into new ones. And while the price point is reasonable at $159 for a queen-size comforter, you might want to factor in that they recommend dry-cleaning it.
Sizes available: Twin/twin XL, full/queen, king/Cali king
See all of the above benefits of the Buffy supply chain, and add to the list the fact that the Breeze is crafted for a cooler comforter experience and made of 100% eucalyptus.
Sizes available: Twin/twin XL, full/queen, king/Cali king
With their queen-size duvet coming in right at the $300 mark, Boll & Branch's products offer many sustainable traits. Their duvets are made of organic, fair trade cotton and their down-alternative fill is made in the US. To top it off, they’re Oeko-Tex certified, which means they’ve been tested for chemicals and pesticides that could be hazardous to your health. Boll & Branch also offers lightweight and winter-weight versions of the comforter, so you can select one based on your sleeping preferences.
Sizes available: Full/queen, king/Cali king
Weights available: Lightweight, midweight, ultra-weight
This alternative down filled duvet from Cozy Earth is available in equally luxurious and naturally temperature regulating bamboo and silk options to bring you cooling comfort at night. Chemical-free, body conforming, and designed with a quilt-like texture, this organic bedding pick is ideal if you’re a particularly hot sleeper who still likes a lightweight layer.
Sizes available: Twin, full/queen, king
If you’re not satisfied with run-of-the-mill polyester fill, Avocado’s comforter is stuffed with naturally thermoregulating and highly breathable alpaca fibers sourced from the Peruvian Andes. Topped with a 100% organic cotton cover in percale, this moisture-wicking duvet is another ideal pick if you’re prone to night sweats; try it paired with a cooling cotton duvet cover for maximum comfort.
Sizes available: Twin, full/queen, king/Cali king
Available in four neutral-adjacent tones, this bestselling bed comforter embraces the rumpled cotton look and shows off the beauty of the material. The filler will stay put, thanks to the diamond-stitch design and the all-encompassing binding gives it a finished look—you don’t even have to pop this one in a duvet cover.
Sizes available: Twin, full/queen, king
Sol Organics is all about sourcing its organic bedding from the highest quality sustainable fibers available. The brand’s down comforter is made of responsibly grown GOTS-certified organic cotton and stuffed with ethically-sourced 100% Canadian white down fill that’s both hypoallergenic and warm weather-friendly if you sleep hot. And if you’re not satisfied with your purchase, the brand offers a free 30-day trial or your money back.
Sizes available: Twin, full/queen, king/Cali king
Weights available: Summer (600 fill), all-season (700 fill)
You get a bit of customization power with this one—shoppers are able to choose just how warm they want the blanket to be (light, medium, extra, or ultra). Choose the warmest option and you won’t believe you’re not snoozing underneath a set of wool-filled comforters. This super-soft comforter is made of an organic cotton shell and filled with hypoallergenic RDS-certified down—and it’s all finished with a clean-looking box stitch.
Sizes available: Twin, full, queen, king/Cali king
Weights available: Light, medium, extra, ultra
Combining two sustainable powerhouses, linen and hemp, this comforter is handmade in the Ukraine and provides the antibacterial, hypoallergenic benefits of hemp with the naturally cooling effects of linen. Both fabrics are biodegradable and require less water for production than cotton.
Sizes available: 30 US, European, and Australian sizes
Made of eco-wool that is sheared from humanely raised sheep in the United States, the Nest organic wool comforter is also Oeko-Tex and GOTS certified. While it sits at the top of the price threshold, those who might prefer a machine washable option from a more familiar fabric will find comfort here.
Sizes available: Twin, queen, king
Tencel is made from wood pulp in a closed-loop system, which means most of the chemicals used to turn pulp into a usable fiber are recycled. While it doesn’t boast the organic certifications of some of the other comforters on the list, the fabric is made from sustainably harvested forests and this tufted option is machine washable.
Sizes available: Full/queen, king/Cali king
If the idea of a comforter seems altogether too heavy for you, you might want to consider a lightweight quilt instead. They’re less cumbersome and bulky, and many are machine washable on a cool setting. Hand-quilted in India, this organic, cotton-filled set from Quince—a home and apparel line dedicated to sustainability and transparent pricing—is also great to look at, with its organic cotton voile shell.
Sizes available: Twin, full/queen, king/Cali king
While many environmentalists steer away from rayon made of bamboo because of the chemicals used to produce the material, both the shell and fill of the Ettitude Whitehaven Comforter are made of 100% organic bamboo that is free of harmful toxins. Their products are Oeko-Tex certified and, in an effort to rebrand the bamboo name, their Clean Bamboo fabric is a lyocell made from bamboo instead of wood. Clean Bamboo is also manufactured in a closed-loop system and boasts hypoallergenic, temperature-regulating, and hair care benefits.
Sizes available: Twin, full/queen, king/Cali king
Weights available: Summer weight, winter weight
Forget the classic diamond-stitched look and go all in on this fluffy situation. The comforter is made of a moisture-wicking organic cotton, and the lyocell fill is a great down alternative that still packs plenty of warmth (without going overboard). Our favorite part? The corner loops, which make attaching it to a duvet cover easy work.
Sizes available: Twin/twin XL, full/queen, king/Cali king
The name really gives it away: This comforter is ridiculously puffy. Light enough to use year-round and made with an organic cotton shell, this comforter is finished with a sleek pintuck stitch to give it that perfectly lived-in look.
Sizes available: Full/queen, king/Cali king
The color options are the real winner here: You can choose between charcoal, light blue, lilac, linen, light grey, and more. Throughout most of your comforter shopping, you’re going to find the same (wonderful, and totally fine) shade of white, but some bedrooms call for a pop of personality. This comforter—which is super soft—comes with two matching pillowcases.
Sizes available: Twin, full, full/queen
