By Kevin Stith, Fri Dec 9th

When the frigid winds of winter arrive, many people turn tolavish bed comforters to stay warm. Because of their luxuriousfeel and unbeatable warmth, down comforters are a popularfavorite. However, down comforters are made from the down ofducks or geese, to which many people are allergic. Luckily,there are down alternative comforters.

Many of these alternatives are made of synthetic materials thatsimulate the look and feel of down. Primaloft Comforters, forexample, are made from a hypoallergenic synthetic material thathas proven to be a near match to down in warmth and comfort.Primaloft Comforters are available at The Company Store, EddieBauer and Land’s End. Luxurious wool comforters, such asEuphoria Organic Wool Comforters, are also good down alternativecomforters for people with allergies. This comforter islightweight, warm, and luxurious like down, without the allergyrisk. The Euphoria Comforter is made from lamb wool andnaturally repels dust mites. It is available from the AllergyBuyers Club.

Comforters made from alpaca or llama wool are also options.Alpacas and llamas have softer and lighter wool than sheep,resulting in a lighter comforter. An alpaca

comforter is alsoavailable at Buyers Club. Some people are not actuallyallergic to down, but to the dust mites and dust particles thatlive in the down. Hypodown Comforters are an excellentalternative for those allergic to dust mites.
