About Down
What is down?
Down is formed under the outer feather of waterfowl consisting of many filaments to trap air create the world’s best natural insulation possible.

What are feathers?
Feathers are light flat growths forming the plumage of duck or geese.

What is fill power?
Fill power is the number of cubic inches down occupies in one ounce. It is the ability of down to regain its shape after the applied pressure is released. Down quality is rated by fill power. The higher fill power number, the greater the insulating value of the down. A&H Home Style uses fill power of 650 or higher to ensure warmth and lightness quality of the products.

What is thread count?
Thread count is the number of threads in a square inch of the fabric. The higher the number of thread count the denser the yarns packed together to prevent down from leaking. Also creates softer and silkier feeling to touch.

 

Comforter Contructions
Baffle Box:
The most recommended and best type of construction for down comforters. A vertical wall of the fabric sewn from top to bottom of the comforter keeping down from shifting and creating cold spots. Baffle box constructions allows down to expand to its fullest potential for the highest loft.

Sewn Through Box:
Recommended for lighter weight comforters where fabric is sewn through the comforter to keep down from shifting. It does not create the same loft as the baffle box.
