One is 9 tog, one is the 4.5 tog not in the bag. Hollowfibre filling. Some age discolouration on the 9 tog. A few small tea/drink stains. Have been laundered at a cleaner's, but not recently. Can be washed if you have a big enough machine and tumbler dryer - I don't. Or maybe suitable for animal bedding. Take 1 or both. Have no further need, as I can't deal with this size duvet and bedding any more, so got single bed instead.
