How to choose a truly comfortable and cost-effective bedding?

This time, the content is mainly aimed at some groups with limited budget, but want to maximize the "sense of sleep" and pursue economic comfort.

Today, I will share with you the different materials of the four-piece set, the corresponding different body sensations and different application scenarios.

0 1 material-? dacron

Usually, four-piece sets are searched online, and the sales volume of thirty or forty packs in the front row are generally polyester. This kind of cost is very low, and the profit will not be particularly high, mainly depending on sales volume. However, this material actually contains harmful ingredients. For example, synthetic fibers are actually petroleum extracts, which have static electricity, poor air permeability and water absorption, and are very uncomfortable to use.

But there is actually a gray area in the industry, that is, many people don't know how to distinguish polyester from cotton. In fact, in the industry, some good polyester chemical fiber fabrics can pretend to be real silk. However, many people can't tell. They think it is smooth, not easy to wrinkle, and it may be silk, so many times fake silk will appear in the industry. In fact, the price of real mulberry silk will be more than 4,000 yuan, while the fake mulberry silk with chemical fiber fabric will only be sold for 600-800 yuan, which is actually quite profiteering.

02 material-cotton

Cotton should be our most familiar and common material. Our general default cotton cloth refers to cotton cloth. The composition of cotton is very simple, that is, cotton is a natural product. Its many advantages are irreplaceable by other fabrics, such as breathability and hygroscopicity, as well as its natural health, including good sleep. I believe many people also use cotton at home.

And cotton will have different processing forms.

The process of cotton from cotton to finished product is: cotton is picked, washed, then processed, spun into yarn and finally woven into cloth. This cloth is a beige grey cloth, and some techniques and treatments have been done on it, such as printing colors and patterns, or making some jacquard patterns, so that we can form some different cotton forms that we see, that is, the products we buy.

0 1) printing and dyeing

First of all, after cotton is spun into yarn, it will be presented in different printing and dyeing ways, such as reactive printing and dyeing, pigment printing and dyeing.

It must be noted that reactive printing and dyeing is an ecological printing and dyeing method, which is harmless to human body. There will be formaldehyde in the process of pigment printing and dyeing, which has no effect on human skin and may cause allergies. The color of printing and dyeing is not as bright as that of reactive printing and dyeing. Moreover, the color fastness of pigment printing and dyeing is not comparable to that of reactive printing and dyeing. No matter what color the product, the longer it is used, it will fade, which is inevitable. However, the aging speed of reactive printing and dyeing is slower than that of pigment printing and dyeing, and the color fastness of pigment printing and dyeing is far from the national standard, but the cost is not lower than that of reactive printing and dyeing, so it is also a common printing and dyeing method for some cheap products.

The other is yarn-dyed. Our normal process is to weave cloth first, and then put the cloth piece by piece into the dye vat for soaking and coloring. But yarn-dyed fabrics are different. It spun the yarn and soaked it directly in the dye vat. There is no room for yarns, which means that each yarn can be dipped in 360 degrees, which is different from the finished cloth. No matter what kind of textile form, there are gaps between the yarns of the finished cloth, so it is impossible to dye the color completely. However, yarn-dyed fabrics are woven by directly soaking yarns, and there is no gap to dye the cloth, so the color fastness is better, and the higher the dye uptake, the longer the durability.

02) Satin and twill

Another way of processing is satin and twill. Many people mistakenly think that satin is a kind of fabric, but it is actually a way of manufacturing. Another way to make satin from cotton cloth is twill.

Satin, when interwoven with warp and weft, is folded in half and then crossed, that is, constantly crossed; The twill is a diamond lattice, that is, the two lines are oblique. Satin is a high-density fabric form, while twill is sparse and cheap. Compared with the two, satin will make you feel dense and twill will feel thick.

As can be seen from the picture, the difference between satin and twill is actually obvious, and twill is more used in children's bedding or cheap bedding. The texture of twill can be seen by the naked eye, but the effect of satin is very close, and the texture can hardly be seen by the naked eye. This is the difference.

The advantages of satin are more delicate body feeling, good luster, smoother hand feeling, durable and washable, and the fabric structure is more wrinkle-resistant. However, because satin is the superposition of two yarns, leaving almost no gap and being very thin, it will feel very thin in sense, which is actually an illusion. Twill is like a fishing net. The thread is thicker, but the weave is thinner. Many people think twill is cheaper, why it is thicker. But in fact, this so-called thickness is due to the illusion that the yarn is too thick. There is no difference in thickness.

From my personal experience, I recommend silk and satin. Because the production method of satin is the embodiment of texture, we can see from the picture that the thicker yarn is actually of lower grade, and the finer it is washed. Moreover, the texture and visual effect of satin can really give people a real sense of high-grade and grade.

03) Printing and Jacquard

According to different production methods, there are different processes, such as printing and jacquard, to make a finished product. Printing is easier to understand, just like printing; Jacquard is three-dimensional, and some lines or texture patterns are made in the fabric itself in the form of needles. You can't stab the patterns.

This picture is jacquard, that is, a solid and concave plane itself is made to present the texture, and there are usually many concave planes. There is a big difference between it and printing, that is, its true colors. Jacquard doesn't bring out another color, it realizes a different visual effect on its true color. I think jacquard will be the next trend of home improvement, because whether it is printing or any other form, there will be a kind of visual fatigue after watching it for a long time. However, the grades and forms of jacquard realize different visual senses with different angles and different lights.

04) Wash the old

That is, we often see washed cotton. The premise of water washing process is that after the cloth is completely made, it will become old by strong water washing, which will give the cloth an old feeling. For example, the most common muji is washed products, or some solid colors and stripes can be made in this way.

flax

The form of flax is actually a refreshing way, and it is a relatively high-cost product.

You can judge the general feeling of flax by pictures. Sensually speaking, flax is actually a healing material, giving people a bright and clear feeling. No matter from the visual or material, there is a Zen artistic conception, which is also the first choice of many young artists. If the home style is Japanese or Nordic, there will be more choices of linen.

03 material-silk

For ordinary people, the permeability of silk will be lower, because it is really expensive. Silk is actually a kind of mulberry silk, which is a natural and luxurious fabric finally formed by various processes. This fabric feels very silky and soft, just like water. On the other hand, it is fragile and difficult to maintain. You can't hang it with your nails, and you can't throw it directly into the washing machine when you wash it. Need a professional dry cleaner to take care of it. This delicate temperament may make many people daunting. Moreover, in terms of price, you can generally buy more than 4,000 pieces of silk, that is, 100% mulberry silk, without any addition, so don't be greedy and cheap.

All the products in our company are actually for personal use. I tried our silk pillowcase (I'm ashamed that I can only use it). Then my feeling is that for silk pillowcases, we must use good fillers, for example, some feather pillows are not enough, and we must match them with good pillows, for example, Russian 100% goose down pillows. Because feather pieces are used, the stems of down will come out, which will cause certain damage to silk. I think sometimes you can experience silk at the entry level, such as pillowcases, and you will gradually like it.

The smoothness of mulberry silk can reduce the friction on the skin and reduce the generation of wrinkles (the anxiety of the post-85 s aunt); At the same time, because the moisture content of mulberry silk is about 10%, it can keep your skin moist and make your skin smoother and more moist.

04 material-Tencel

Tencel is actually like a substitute for silk, which can be cool and smooth. Tencel is more popular than silk. Tencel can be considered as a civilian version of diaosi.

Tencel is the product that we are replacing and choosing at this time and this season. Its advantage is that it is very soft, with the lightness and thinness of cotton, and it is also very silky. But its disadvantage is that it is also exquisite. After washing, take a pat and hit a dozen in the washing machine, and the surface will definitely lose its brand-new luster, and the surface fibers will be slightly damaged. Of course, as long as you are not picky, it will not affect the use at all, nor will it cause a big visual gap. Personally, Tencel is very suitable for this season.

It should be emphasized here that when buying Tencel, you must remember to ask the seller whether the pilling package is returned, because the pilling probability of Tencel depends entirely on its origin. For example, Nanjing is one of the top raw materials producing areas in Tencel industry, and Tencel in Nanjing generally can't afford to buy balls. Like many domestic manufacturers, in order to reduce the cost, the same fabric, color and style can be replaced by another raw material, which makes it possible to pilling after use, and the probability of pilling is very high. But if you use it and wash it again, after a period of time, you are not allowed to return it.

Of course, no matter how good Tencel is, if you don't pay attention to some maintenance, it will also cause pilling. After all, Tencel is also a textile. Short and hard hair like boys will also cause some friction to the fabric, which may cause some local damage to the pillowcase. But that's not pilling. Pilling is a large-scale phenomenon that you can really see one by one covered by sheets or quilts.

When choosing Tencel, we must pay attention to density and count. To talk about a pit here is that this thing must have its limits, such as 60, 80, 65,438+000, 65,438+020, and then 65,438+040, but as far as the whole industry is concerned, there is really no such thing as 65,438+060. Just like the memory of an iPhone has 16G, 32G, 64G, 128G, and then 256G, there is really nothing higher than this. But many people in this industry have no principles and bottom lines. In order to attract customers, they will say 200 yuan or even 1600 yuan. When it comes to you, you are completely confused.

For home day, 60 yuan is actually ok. At present, there are more than 40 pieces on the market, and even more than a dozen pieces are getting thinner and thicker. These prices are generally low, but the grade is a little too low, so I suggest that it is not wrong to choose more than 60 pieces. Of course, it is necessary to confirm whether this is really more than 60 yuan, otherwise it would be a bit embarrassing to buy it without this number. However, there is no good way to judge this figure at present. This can only be said to be a conscientious businessman who has some qualified testing certificates for this product.

At present, not all Tencel fabrics on the market are pure cotton. Many low-priced Tencel fabrics belong to polyester (polyester fiber), and the real Tencel is 100% lyocell fiber.

05 material-velvet and sanding

There is a kind of wool to keep warm in winter, such as all kinds of baby wool, flannel and coral wool, which is actually a polyester fiber with strong warmth. But in fact, winter is the best time. My personal suggestion is to choose cotton sanding. The process of cotton sanding is to pull a tiny fiber out of the cotton surface by mechanical pulling on the basis of cotton. This kind of plush fiber will make people feel gentle for the first time, but it won't be too cold.

The detail in the picture is the most detailed close-up of cotton sanding, and you can see that a fiber on the surface layer has been ground. So its feel is actually very subtle, not to say that it feels fluffy. Compared with coral wool, its plush is so thin that many people think it is invisible at all.

If you just want to keep warm, velvet is actually the best, because its touch will make you conduct heat very quickly, and its warmth is unique and its price is relatively cheap, but its certainty is that it is really easy to slip, that is, the head of the core may not be found anywhere after the second day, and it will always slip in the quilt cover. Moreover, the poor quality velvet antler is very static, and the good quality velvet antler will generally have an excellent static treatment without static electricity. You can choose according to your own needs when choosing. Personally, I don't like velvet because it's too boring. Too stuffy and sweaty makes people uncomfortable. I prefer cotton sanding. If it is my friend, I would recommend cotton sanding, which will really make me sleep more naturally.

06 material-children's bedclothes

The above basically covers some mainstream fabrics and materials in the whole industry. Next, I will share the choice of children's bedding.

When choosing children's bedding, we must remember that children's skin is tender, and adults' body feeling is not very suitable for them. In the choice of children's bedding, I suggest to choose cotton as far as possible, and it must be 100% material. Secondly, the process must be soft.

You can feel a skin-friendly and soft feeling through the pictures.

Many people will ask me whether I choose Class A or refuse to choose Class B when choosing for my children. In fact, I think from the perspective of our industry, many categories A and B are actually not referential. At present, the real A-level is rarely judged, because even if all our fabrics are A-level, we still have to sew things, button buttons and install zippers when processing, but these accessories will never reach A-level, so I can say responsibly that many products that claim to be A-level on the Internet are actually said by myself, not the national standard A-level.

So what kind of things can Class A go with? In fact, for example, children's face towel, which has no accessories, no zipper, no buttons and no other non-A products, can be rated as Class A, but in bedding, even Class A can not be rated as Class A.

For example, the fabric of the back core is Class A, and its filler does not exist Class A and Class B, because it is not a product that directly contacts the skin. So as long as there is quilting filler in your quilt, it can't be rated as Class A, but in fact, the contact of this product itself is Class A, which is why we see that the product itself is Class A fabric, but the washing label in its logo is also Class B..
