Cozy Earth Bamboo Comforter Review

It is hard to believe my first born will be four soon! Which means she will be transitioning to a big girl twin bed any day now and growing out of her merino toddler sleep bag. I am very thankful to the generous people at Cozy Earth for sending us the Twin Bamboo Comforter to keep Baby E warm and snug this winter!

If you're a parent, you know what it feels like to hear "Mom, I'm cold!" or "Mom, I'm too hot!" in the middle of the night. Stumbling through the dark you try to remedy whatever your child's blanket fails to do. Good luck trying to fall back asleep now! The Cozy Earth Bamboo Comforter changes all that because it responds to and regulates your body's temperature naturally. It's perfect for both kids and adults, no matter if you're a hot or cold sleeper.

When our comforter arrived and we opened it, the first thing that struck me is how luxurious, soft, and silky it is! Baby E definitely noted that and couldn't stop talking about the softness as she buried her face in it. It may not look like it in my photos with some artificial lighting, but the comforter is snow white. Unlike cotton, it will not 'yellow' or 'grey' over time. It is made of sustainable 100% viscose from bamboo fabric.

Baby E is very sensitive when it comes to things she is in contact with. She develops a rash from polyester and sometimes has odd rashes that I do not know the origins of. That is why I really appreciate the fact that this bamboo comforter is inhospitable to bed bugs, dust mites, and other microbes. It is also naturally anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, and anti-mold. Now if only I could rip up the old carpet in her room and replace it with bamboo flooring!

I also have to note that it is obvious when you look at this comforter that it's very well made and high quality. It is beautifully made and I expect it to last a long time. You may also notice in these photos that it has little loops at the corners and also some on the sides - they attach to the Cozy Earth bamboo duvet cover and it keeps the comforter from bunching up and sliding inside, genius! Unfortunately we don't have a duvet cover, it does cost an extra $229.99. The comforter is great even without a duvet cover, especially because it is so easy to keep clean - but I would still recommend one.

The comforter can be machine washed on cold with some mild detergent. Another really unique benefit - you can hang it outside in the sunlight every few months and the bamboo fibers will naturally rejuvenate and refresh. Isn't that cool? It's similar to the properties of wool that we also love.

The Cozy Earth Twin Bamboo Comforter retails for $319.99, definitely not for someone on a budget and I'll be honest I would not be able to buy one. But if you can, it is a worthwhile investment considering how much time our children spend sleeping and the toxic pesticides and chemicals used in traditional fabrics, blankets, and comforters. I would say that creating a safe, non-toxic sleeping environment is almost as important as eating food that is free of pesticides and chemicals. Something to keep in mind regarding green priorities in your household!
