Feather Beds originated in northern Europe, and were luxury items for the wealthy. Well, today the Featherbed is not just for the wealthy, but you may feel like you are part of the wealthy society after sleeping on one. Over the years the featherbed became the standard of comfort and the symbol of luxury. Now Amercians are discovering this European secret and enjoying the luxurious comfort of the featherbed. The featherbed is a special layer of comfort that you have to experience to really appreciate. The featherbed cradles the body and relieves pressure points that reduce circulation and cause tossing and turning. A featherbed can make such a difference in the way you sleep.
The Featherbed can be used in two ways. First, on top of the mattress pad, but under the fitted sheet. Secondly, on top of the fitted sheet, but covered by another sheet like a flat sheet or covered with a featherbed cover.
Featherbeds are made with a 2-3 inch layer of feathers with a downproof and featherproof cover. In better quality featherbeds, the feathers are small and sometimes crushed to minimize the feel of any quills. Additionally, better quality featherbeds have added features like fiberfilled tops or down tops to add extra softness to the feel of the featherbed.
Fiberbeds are down alternatives. Made in the same way as the featherbed, but with synthetic fiber instead of feathers. Fiberbeds are completely hypoallergenic.
Private Quarters offers three level of Featherbeds. The Superior Fiberbed, filled with a generous 2 inch layer of cluster fiber and topped with a layer of very soft and luxurious microfiber. The Superior Featherbed is filled with a generous 2 inch layer of small curly feathers and topped with a layer of very soft and luxurious microfiber. The Deluxe Featherbed has a 2 inch layer of small feathers and the added luxury of a layer of wonderfully soft down on top for a Deluxe layer of cushioning.
What makes Private Quarters Featherbeds better than others? First of all, Private Quarters featherbeds are made with baffle boxes, a series of inner chambers with 2" high walls that hold the fill in the place and keep it even throughout the featherbed or fiberbed, giving you an even distribution of comfort. Private Quarters featherbeds are filled with very small feathers for greater comfort and our fiberbeds are filled with soft, but supportive, cluster fiber fill. The quality of the feathers and fiber fill is very important, Private Quarters uses the highest quality.
Second of all, this is critical, all of PQ's feathers have been super-cleaned, to make them allergen free. You may have experienced an allergic reaction to feathers previously. It is actually not the down or feathers that people are allergic to, but the impurities that are in them. A rigorous cleaning process can remove up to 99% of those impurities, rendering down and feathers hypo-allergenic to all but a very small percentage of people who are allergic to even the smallest amount of impurities. Private Quarters have been super-cleaned and customers are able to use our products with confidence of no allergens, this process is a very expensive process, but enables almost everyone the ability to sleep on a true featherbed without complications of allergies. These factors is what makes the difference of a $49 featherbed and a $199 featherbed.
Caring for your Featherbed is pretty simple. Each time you wash your sheets, it is a good idea to shake the feathers to re-fluff the feathers. I actually fluff mine a little each night, I simply reach under my fitted sheet and give my featherbed a little fluff, getting the most out of my featherbed each night. It is also a good idea to air out your featherbed occasionally to freshen it, you can do this while your sheets are washing.
I personally have had wonderful results of sleeping on a featherbed. We had a good mattress on our bed, but still woke up stiff and sore in the mornings, my husbands arms would fall asleep and he snored like no tomorrow! Making both are nights, unrestful. Since sleeping on the featherbed, I wake up feeling great, no longer stiff and sore, my husbands arms aren't falling asleep and the best part, he is not snoring!!!!!! We seem to both be getting more comfortable and therefore are entering a deeper level of sleep, getting more rest. The featherbed fills in the crevices that the mattress does not, supporting our body so our pressure points don't have to, providing even distribution of weight for our whole body, resulting in not waking up sore any more.
You really owe it to yourself to try a featherbed and get the best comfort you can each night, better sleep! Visit my Private Quarters website to learn more. And, this month learn how you can get a free featherbed.
