Are you trying to decide between the DODO lightweight 100% silk-filled duvet and the Maison de la soie summer silk duvet?
In this comparison, we analyzed these two models based on eleven objective criteria, using information available on the product pages as of July 13, 2026.
Verdict at a Glance
Both models are lightweight duvets filled with natural silk, designed for summer nights or bedrooms heated to 20°C or higher.
The DODO duvet features a filling advertised as 100% silk, a weight of 200 g/m², and a satin-finish cotton percale cover. DODO also notes that the finishing touches are done by hand. However, the grade and length of the silk fibers are not specified on the page viewed.
Maison de la soie provides more details on the composition and construction of its summer silk duvet: long, Grade A mulberry silk fibers; handcrafted, multi-layered construction; a 120 threads per cm² cotton jacquard cover; and a zipper that allows you to check the filling.
The DODO weight is slightly higher (200g vs. 180g), while the Maison de la soie product page provides more detailed information on fiber quality, certification, and manufacturing methods.

Detailed Analysis
Number of customer reviews
The Maison de la soie product page displays 701 customer reviews directly related to the Maison de la soie Summer Silk Duvet. This substantial number of reviews provides authentic customer feedback praising the quality, comfort, and lightness of the Maison de la soie Summer Silk Duvet.
The DODO product page displays a total number of reviews for the brand at the bottom of the page, but no specific count for this duvet appears within the product content itself. Unlike the Maison de la soie product page, the DODO product page does not allow you to read reviews to find out what customers really think of the lightweight 100% silk-filled duvet.
Available Sizes
Maison de la soie offers six sizes: 140×200, 200×200, 200×220, 240×220, 260×240, and 280×240 cm.
DODO offers four sizes on the product page: 140×200, 200×200, 220×240, and 240×260 cm. The measurement 220×240 cm corresponds to the same area as 240×220 cm; the order of the sides is simply reversed.
Price of a 240×220 cm duvet
To ensure a fair comparison, we’ve chosen to compare the duvets from both brands in the 240×220 cm size (a common duvet size for a standard double bed).
As of July 13, 2026, the product pages listed the following prices:
At Maison de la soie, the 240×220 cm summer silk duvet is priced at €199 (excluding discounts).
At DODO, their lightweight 220x240 cm silk duvet is available starting at €344.90.
Type and Quality of Silk
Maison de la soie states that it uses exclusively long Grade A mulberry silk fibers. The product description also specifies that the fibers are harvested by hand.
DODO states that the filling is 100% silk but does not specify the variety of silk, its grade, or the length of the fibers used.
Both products therefore use a filling made entirely of silk, but Maison de la soie provides more detailed information about the nature and quality of the fibers.
Weight
The Maison de la soie silk duvet has a weight of 180 g/m², compared to 200 g/m² for the DODO model.
Both weights correspond to lightweight duvets. However, the DODO model contains 20 g/m² of additional filling. We can therefore give the DODO duvet a slight edge on this criterion, even though a minimal difference of 20 g/m² will not be noticeable in terms of feel.
Certifications
Maison de la soie mentions the OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100 certification awarded to its manufacturer. This information is listed on the product page.
No equivalent certification is listed on the DODO page we reviewed. The absence of such a mention does not necessarily mean that the product lacks any certification.
Cover and Finishes
Maison de la soie uses a 100% cotton jacquard percale cover with a thread count of 120 threads/cm², or 300 TC. The duvet features quilted stitching, ties at the corners and along the sides, and a zipper that allows you to see the filling directly.
DODO specifies a cover made of 100% untreated satin-finish cotton percale. The brand states that the finishing touches are done by hand in France by its seamstresses, but the product description does not specify the fabric’s density or whether it includes an inspection opening.
Manufacturing Method
Maison de la soie describes a multi-layered, handcrafted manufacturing process. Thin layers of silk fabric are stretched and then layered to ensure an even distribution of the filling. This traditional process, carried out entirely by hand, is performed in China by skilled artisans.
On DODO’s product page, the manufacturing method for preparing and assembling the silk filling is not specifically described, but a video on the page shows that it is industrially manufactured in France. The finishing touches are then applied by hand in France by their team.
Preparation and Shipping Times
At Maison de la soie, please allow 24 to 48 business hours for the preparation and shipping of your package. After that, delivery to mainland France via Colissimo typically takes 2 to 3 days.
The DODO brand does not specify the preparation time for this particular duvet on its product page. After shipment, the brand generally estimates delivery within 24 to 48 hours to your home via TNT or DPD, or approximately three days to a DPD pickup location.
These delivery times are estimates and may vary depending on inventory, the carrier, the destination, and the time of order.
Free shipping in France
The Maison de la soie product page states that delivery is free to a pickup location for orders of €50 or more.
DODO offers free delivery in metropolitan France for purchases of €120 or more, barring special conditions. For Chronopost delivery by appointment, the minimum purchase amount is €190.
Return Policy
Maison de la soie states that it accepts returns for 30 days.
DODO provides a return and cancellation procedure, but the exact timeframe is not specified on the public page analyzed. It is therefore listed as unspecified in this comparison.
Which duvet is best for which profile?
Choose the DODO Duvet
The DODO duvet is particularly well-suited for those who prefer French-made products, as it is manufactured at the brand’s factory in France. With a weight of 200 g/m², a satin-finished cotton percale cover, and hand-finished details, it is a lightweight yet slightly more plush model. However, this French manufacturing may result in a higher final price for the buyer.
Choosing the Maison de la soie Duvet
The Maison de la soie duvet will appeal to sleepers looking for a lightweight, high-quality duvet for summer or a well-heated bedroom. For the past 15 years, the brand has had its mulberry silk duvets made in China using a multi-layered, handcrafted manufacturing method.
Very positive customer reviews consistently highlight the perceived quality, lightness, and comfort of this duvet. It is recommended for sleepers who want a high-quality silk duvet at a more affordable price.
Our Opinion
These two silk duvets are designed for different types of sleepers, and there is no single “best choice” in absolute terms.
The DODO duvet will appeal above all to those who prioritize French manufacturing. Made in the brand’s own factory, it showcases local craftsmanship, a weight of 200 g/m², and hand-finished details. This decision to manufacture in France is reflected in the retail price.
For its part, Maison de la soie takes a different approach. For over 15 years, the brand has had its mulberry silk duvets handmade in specialized workshops in China. This approach allows it to offer duvets that benefit from traditional craftsmanship, long Grade A silk fibers, and a generally more affordable price. The numerous customer reviews posted on the website regularly highlight the quality of craftsmanship, the lightness, and the comfort of the duvets—qualities that are particularly appreciated on summer nights.
Ultimately, if your priority is to support French manufacturing, the DODO duvet is a solid choice. If you’re primarily looking for a high-quality silk duvet that offers good value for the price, with a proven manufacturing process and one that’s widely praised by customers, the Maison de la soie duvet appears to be a particularly attractive choice.
