This cotton/polyester quilt is the perfect statement-making piece for a beautifully made bed. The floral design looks delicate and luxurious, but it also makes the quilt feel more plush. And the spectrum of colors — especially the teal — are richly pigmented. 

Some reviewers compare the feel to a weighted blanket, so it isn't the lightest layer of the group. Also, note that this is a dry-clean-only piece.

This cotton quilt from Brooklinen is right at the intersection of cozy and modern style. This piece is handmade by artisans in India, so it's one to treasure and take good care of.

Linen lovers — look no further. Parachute's reviewer-favorite quilt comprises box-stitched linen on top and 100% cotton percale underneath to provide a rustic texture that feels as comfortably lived-in as an heirloom item.

Reviewers, particularly those who live in warmer places like Florida and Texas, adore that its weight isn't too insulating but still plenty cozy for year-round enjoyment.

If you're going to go to Amazon to buy a bed quilt, this is the one to get. This polyester microfiber set comes with the quilt and a pillow sham (or two if you buy the full/queen or king size), and the pieces are all adorned with heat-pressed, scrolled patterns for a slightly raised texture.

The consensus from reviewers is that what the set lacks in plushy softness, it makes up for with stylistic appeal and ease of laundering. The material is quick-drying and doesn't show signs of wear, even after extended use.

Tencel is one of our favorite bed sheet fabrics, so naturally, we're head over heels for this West Elm bed quilt set, too. Both Fair Trade-certified and comprised of sustainably sourced wood fibers, this bed quilt has a look that's both understated and stylish while also feeling irresistibly cool to the touch. 

We love that it's available in a range of configurations, so you can opt for the entire quilt/sham set or just individual pieces.

The luxe factor of a set of silk sheets is matched only by this incredible quilt from Donna Karan New York. 

The tack-stitched top is made entirely of a buttery-smooth blend of silk and lyocell (a rayon-like material that's lightweight and cooling), and the underside is all lyocell. Reviewers do note that this is a pretty lightweight quilt.

This 100% cotton quilt from Crane & Canopy is completely flat and smooth and has gorgeous chevron-patterned stitching. It doesn't add any unnecessary bulk — and having slept with this one ourselves, we can tell you with confidence that it has a surprisingly cool feel. 

Unlike some similar-looking polyester quilts, the cotton fabric is far more breathable and softer to the touch.

Get two eye-popping patterns for the price of one with this reversible polyester bed quilt from Marimekko. One side displays rows and rows of slightly imperfect circles, while the other is candy-striped in black and white.
