Just like the amount of clothing a person needs for maximum warmth, the type of comforter that suits you best depends on factors such as personal body temperature (health condition, age, etc.), area where you live (along the coast and high elevations are colder), room temperature (indoor heater setting), and amount of sleepwear you wear. For your reference, the following chart suggests the types of comforter most suitable for various room temperatures.
