This alpaca quilt is warm without being heavy and keeps you comfortable all night long. It is made from a luxurious 60/40 blend of Australian Alpaca Fleece & Pure New Wool.
The alpaca doona's quilted cover is 100% cotton, woven with a sateen texture that gives your bedroom a finished appearance. The quilt's benefits are derived both from quality craftsmanship by the Australian family-owned company that makes this range of alpaca bedding, and from the natural and inherent properties of alpacas' fleece.
Alpaca fleece is renowned for holding warmth even in thin, light layers, but allowing air to breathe through the fibre, an aspect that's very much in evidence in this alpaca quilt. Wool is a natural healthy choice, and an environmentally friendly resource.
Alpacas originated from the Altiplano in Peru and were bred by the Incas for their luxuriant, silky fleeces, which the Inca's hailed as 'The Fibre of the Gods'.
At that time, the fleeces were extremely rare and were only worn by the very wealthy or royalty - in fact the Inca's considered Alpaca fibre to be more important than silver or gold.
An Alpaca fleece is obtained in much the same way a sheep's fleece is obtained - the fleece is simply shorn off the Alpaca about once a year. No Alpacas are harmed or injured in any way - they simply get a haircut.
Alpaca is a super-soft fibre. It does not have scales on the fibre, making it naturally smooth & soft. There are many different types of Alpaca, but the best, which Bambi use, is Super Fine Alpaca fleece. At around 16-18 microns, this fleece has the feel of cashmere. (To give an understanding of how fine Super Fine Alpaca is, most human hair is at least 100 microns - 5 times thicker than alpaca fibre).
Alpaca is a completely hollow fibre, meaning it has a massive propensity for trapping heat while, at the same time, being extremely lightweight. In tests conducted by the Yocum-McCall Testing Laboratories, alpaca fibre was shown to be three times warmer than sheep's wool.

Good customer service that communicated with me to get my order to me ASAP.
Nifty little device that has helped me get off to sleep & block out other house & street noise. I love the thunderstorms sound. Quite compact & lightweight so I hope to take it travelling. Lots of different sound options which is great. Has rain sounds which I love but it they're more like a trickle sound rather than rain per se. Just an observation!
Great service prompt delivery thanks for the sample ear plugs too!
Great
Bought the Air Purifier for my sister. It arrived very quickly and she is overjoyed that at last she can get rid of all the nasty airborne particles in her home
My order with Sleep Solutions was very easy. The travel pillow arrived within days of placing the order. Great updates with the order. I’m very happy with the pillow, thank you
Excellent
Sound and vibration is good but useless because of the wires, when children did sleep moving it became displaced so not working
