Let’s settle the bedtime debate: quilts or blankets, which gets a place on your bed? You're not the only one if you've ever been cold under an inadequately heavy cover or drippy under a heavy one. Proper bedding can completely differ in how you sleep, and it begins by knowing what differentiates them.

At myTrident, we don’t just make cosy sleep essentials. We're building experiences to help you sleep more and wake up feeling refreshed. And so if you're torn between the hug of blanket or the hug of a quilt, let us walk you through everything you'd like to learn.

What’s the Real Difference Between Blanket and Quilt?

Here is the easiest way to think of it. A blanket is typically one layer of soft, cushy material. It's your go-to when you're looking for warmth and not heaviness. But quilt has three layers—top, middle, and bottom—sewn all together, and it provides you with comfort and a dash of design flair.

Where blankets can't be beat for sheer cosiness, quilts use more shape and sometimes even serve decorative purposes.

When Should You Choose a Blanket?

A blanket is your ultimate buddy if you prefer to wrap yourself up like a burrito during cold winter nights. They're cosy, airy, and ideal for those who want their bed instantly snuggly.

And here’s where we’ve got you covered literally. Our Classic Warm Whisper Penelope Double Blanket is a 4.5 kg wonder that hugs you in all the right ways. Crafted in ultra soft micro polyester with breathtaking maroon print, not only does it keep you warm but it also does your bedroom décor justice.

Prefer something bit lighter but still warm enough for breezy nights? Our Classic Cosy Cocoon Double Blanket (3.5 kg) in Felcia design delivers just that balance. It’s plush without being heavy, stylish without being too bold.

Blankets Are Perfect If:

• You want something warm but not too heavy.
• You need quick-to-wash, easy-to-store bedding.
• You prefer snuggling on the bed or the couch.
• You prefer low-maintenance comfort with perpetual softness.

When Should You Choose a Quilt?

Presently, quilts are ideal for you if you prefer a bed that retains its shape, is textured in layers, and adds an element of sophistication into your bedroom. They usually accompany exquisite designs and intricate stitching and function ideally in hot climatic conditions or air-conditioned spaces.

Quilts are perfect if you prefer something flatter, less puffy, and cosy. And while myTrident is all about elevating your blanket game, we know the appeal of a finely-crafted quilt for those who prefer structure over softness.

Quilts Are Ideal If:

• You want something stylish with a polished look.
• You sleep in a moderate climate or AC year-round.
• You love layering, pair a quilt with a blanket for cold nights.
• You want something that doubles up as a decorative bedspread.

Blanket vs Quilt: What’s Best for You?

Choosing between blanket and quilt depends on how you sleep and live. Are you someone who runs cold and wants all the snuggles? Our myTrident Warm Whisper Blanket is made for you. Want something plush but breathable? Go for the Cosy Cocoon Blanket.

Love clean, minimal layers with a touch of traditional elegance? That’s where a good quilt might win. But honestly, no rule says you can't have both.

Pro tip: Many of our myTrident customers love layering, a light quilt during warm months, and a fluffy blanket added on top when the temperatures drop.

Blankets are your best bet for soft, reliable, no-fuss warmth. A quilt is worth considering if you wish to have lightweight layering with a polished look. And if you're like most people, you’ll love having a mix of both in your bedding setup.
