how often the comforter professionally should be laundered.? is that a dry cleaning?

We recommend laundering no more than once a year. Using a duvet cover will reduce the need to launder the comforter. To have it laundered you would take it to a dry cleaner, but it should be a gentle laundering process rather than dry cleaning.

Hello Joshua, I have not heard of anyone using a regular washer and dryer. I strongly suggest dry clean as to not ruin the comforter in anyway. Sincerely, Erika Starr Designer Living Customer Service 1-888-879-8790 Info@designerliving.com

I have put it in the dryer one time after washing but it takes a while to dry. Now I just take it to the dry cleaners and have them take care of it. To me it is worth the 20 dollars to get it dry cleaned.

I have never seen anyone dry clean bedding. If your front loading washer is large enough, just use that.

I have washed the comforter 3 times in a large capacity washing machine, and it came out very nice; I have not washed or chot it, and it comes out very nice;I have not washed any of the accessories.

This Comforter is dry clean only. Yet few customer have washed them in the past and then tossed them in dryer with Tennis balls and worked out well. Its not guaranteed though.

i've tried it before. sometimes it works - sometimes it drips water because the head of the steamer istoo low. if there was a way that someone could hold the comforter vertical while you steamed it would probably work better. personally, i'd take it to a laundromat - lightly dampen the fabric (if it's ok with water) and tumble it for about 10 minutes. i haven't been to a laundromat in decades, but i remember thattheir dryers were much larger than a household dryer.

It's supposed to be dry cleaned, but I sleep with adog so I've washed mine in the machine on a regular cycle probably 4 times now. Still beautiful and comfortable : )

Funny that you ask. I own/operate a dry cleaners. This comforter was purchased as a replacement for one of my customers because the one she had was accidentally water washed. The care label did not state dry cleaning only nor do not water wash. Long story short, because of the wool inside I would not recommend washing it in water. Even with the comforter air dried after the cold wash, there was noticeable deformation and shrinkage. Dry Clean if you have the option available to you. Hope that helps.

I have the full/queen and I washed it in my older Kenmore washer. I washed it on the delicate setting and dried it on the low heat setting. The comforter (and pillow shams) came out just fine.

Hi, Natasha,Thanks for the inquiry. Since the comforter is made from silk, I highly recommend you to bring this to a professional dry cleaning service to clean the comforter. Let me know if you have any other questions. Have a great day!Cheers,J. Lee

Not really; I washed mine and the filling in the comforter has been kinda funky and some what mis-shaped since! Wish I hadn't done that one!

I have mine in a duvet and don't plan on washing them for some time yet. Sorry I couldn't answer your question. However, I do love the comforter, especially that it doesn't shift like my real goose down one did.

I absolutely love this duvet, however I have not had to wash it yet. I have a friend who owns a dry cleaning business and that's what I plan to do when it's time.

I read the reviews on Amazon before I purchased my comforter. Many reviews said it does well in the washer. I haven't needed to wash my comforter yet, but I wouldn't hesitate to throw it in a heavy duty washer. Good luck, and let us know how it turns out!

You can absolutely wash down comforters and pillows. Ask Martha. You should use a duvet and shouldn't have to wash with any frequency, but if it's spilled on or you think it needs refreshing it's absolutely fine to wash. I'd never take mine to a dry cleaner and have my bedding cleaned with a bunch of chemicals.
