Helping Australian families sleep better since 2024
Best Duvet Australia was born from a simple frustration: finding reliable, Australia-specific information about duvets was nearly impossible. When our founder, Sarah Mitchell, moved from the UK to Melbourne in 2022, she discovered that the bedding advice she'd relied on back home simply didn't apply to Australian conditions. The climate differences between a Brisbane summer and a Hobart winter are vast, and international bedding guides rarely addressed these nuances.
Sarah spent months researching duvet fills, testing different GSM weights, and learning about materials suited to Australia's unique climate zones. She connected with textile experts, visited wool processing facilities in regional Victoria, and even toured a bamboo fabric manufacturer in Queensland. The knowledge she gained became the foundation of what would become Best Duvet Australia.
In early 2024, Sarah partnered with James Chen, a sleep researcher with over a decade of experience studying the relationship between bedding and sleep quality. Together, they launched this platform with a single goal: to provide Australians with trustworthy, thoroughly researched duvet recommendations tailored to local conditions.
Today, our team includes bedding enthusiasts, sleep specialists, and product researchers spread across Australia. We're based in Melbourne, but our team members live in various climate zones—from the tropical humidity of Cairns to the cool climate of Tasmania—giving us first-hand experience with duvet performance in different conditions.
