I’ve grown up with these, I think they’re the standard blanket in Germany. We also have a thin inner for summer and a thick goose down inner for winter. And a whole bunch of covers, so you can just throw one in the wash and put the next one on.
Actually now that I think about it we always buy pillow case+duvet cover as a matching set, idk if you can even get then separately lol
I’m from Québec and we/some put thick bed covers like comforters on top of another set of thin sheets. I grew up with the principle of just removing a layer if it was hot in summer, sometimes removing the comforter entirely, and putting it back in winter. I have never used a duvet before visiting Europe. It’s only when I slept in hotels in Germany that I met a duvet for the first time of my life. Most of them only have a single sheet, a duvet and a giant deflated pillow. And I must admit that I hated it. So much so that I went to Decathlon to buy a liner and an inflatable pillow because I couldn’t sleep with the duvet nor the folded pillow.

If it’s any solace to you, I hate those pillows too, and my whole family has never had them. Idk what’s up with hotels of all places using those
They’re not typical in the United States; one-piece comforters are more typical.
Depends on the area I guess. I see more duvets than one-piece comforters here in the PNW.
