We have multiple duvet covers and most are wrinkle-free. They’re no different from sheets. If you pack them into the dryer with too much else it won’t have room to tumble and can come out scrunched up. I’m not sure how one would kick a duvet cover off a duvet. Doesn’t it have buttons or some other closure?

We’ve had a couple of comforters with batting and I always found them a pain to launder. They were so bulky that they never dried properly in the dryer. The center would still be damp long after the outside of the mass was dry and I would have to take it out to reposition it and re-dry it.

My kids loved the simplicity of making a bed with a duvet. Give it a good shake, reposition it and smooth down any lumps and you were done. They took theirs to college.

I know I’m sounding like a lobbyist for the duvet industry but the first time I slept under a duvet in Sweden I was converted. I agree that the OP should find out what her kids prefer before buying the bedding.
