I'm very new to this forum and still trying to navigate the site!

Is there anyone out there that knows where I can get duvet covers 240x240 for some lovely duvets I have inherited in our new chalet?

Any suggestions greatly received - have been surfing the net in the UK forever!

Thanks Lynda

One of my major complaints is that Swiss duvets fit the bed exactly and do not have the extra bit that drapes over. I have a king size bed here.

I imported my duvet from the UK gave in, in the end..(God I sound vaguely female!)

Ikea is the obvious one

Have you tried the Ikea website?
http://www.ikea.com/ch/fr/
Here is another website you could try

We've had the same problem, the biggest size Ikea do is 240x220. How good are you with a sewing machine....

I got a very nice one from Angela i will have a look for the cataloge, and post the website for you.

Manor usually have a huge selection of sizes. You can also try Pfister or even the specialist bedding shops, probably a sure bet, but most likely more expensive.

You might try http://www.ackermann.ch/ch/ac1/
pretty sure they have them (if bettwashe translates to duvet cover)
the wife gets alot of stuff from this company, they ship quickly .
unfortunately the site is in German . good luck

It will, indeed, be very expensive. My wife and I completely shelved our plans for a king-size bed (already shaky after difficulties with the bed itself) when the only full-sized doonas(/duvets) we could find were scarily expensive (even mid-range ones were around CHF1000).

I've come to the conclusion that the Swiss don't sleep in beds bigger than a double and larger sizes are only sold here to rip off the rich foreigners.

We have a big bed, we now have to single duvets 1 each stops us from fighting over the 1 duvet

Ok found the cataloge, and they have a very nice duvet 240x240 costs 149frcs if you tell me the size of the pillow cases you need then i can give you the price for them

Here is the website www.angela-bruderer.ch.

I've definitely seen them for less than that so no one need panic just yet!

£60 at M&S on Oxford Street

Hey is no-one reading my post 149frcs

Of course, I just wanted to make the point that there is no need to panic... Switzerland is expensive but not THAT expensive... Well, not yet anyway!
Never mind the comment about riping off foreigners... We'll ignore that one....

Seems to be some confusion between duvets and duvet covers......a good goose down 4-seasons 240x240 duvet could easily cost up to 1000 CHF, but not the cover...

The OP wanted to know about a duvet cover

Kays does a good selection starting prices 79.95frcs heres the website www.kays.ch
