I want to know how long it actually takes to wash a typical load of laundry. 40 mins? 60 mins?

Depends on the load. If you fill the drum and use the full capacity of the washer the load will take about 1:20. For a small or normal load it will take around 40 minutes. The smaller the load the faster it is.

Dry clean only, I've never stuck mine in a washer but I can imagine the mess it would be if I did it! The down would probably shift and and the cover might shrink. I always "refresh" mine by putting it in the dryer with a dryer sheet and set the temp to perm. press for about 20-30 minutes.

Machine wash (I've done cold and warm, both fine) and either let it air dry flat or I often put it in the dryer for 5 minutes then let it air dry

Hand wash with a little laundry detergent and hang dry. Don't put in dryer!! It will take about 48 hours to dry, fyi.

Most carwashes don't like to . I usually take off the rack when I go for a carwash. Taking the rack off only takes 2 min.

Gentle cycle, half amount of laundry soap, in dryer low heat for about 10minutes and hung to dry outside. Did not damage product at all and rinsed clean nicely. My husband washed in regular cycle and high heat dryer as well and it stood up to both methods.

I will quote from the 'manual', "Wash by hand or as follows, in automatic washer using slow agitation and normal spin speed. Fill washer with warm water. Add minimum amount of all purpose detergent, agitate to dissolve. Do not use bleach. Add bedding and soak for five minutes. Agitate for two minutes. Spin. Fill for cool rinse, agitate one minute, then spin. Dry in an automatic dryer on low heat, five minutes only, or line dry over parallel lines. Remove bedding from dryer and drape over parallel lines or a shower rail to finish drying." Also, "Do NOT DRY CLEAN this bedding. Cleaning solvents may have deteriorating effects on the insulation of the heating element."

We have a normal washer and we wash 1 load from each of the three compartments. We wash clothes about once a week and there are only two of us. I can't imagine a situation that would call for splitting each of the 3 compartment into 2 loads - even if each was stuffed full and overflowing. When I bought the item I just wanted something to sort clothes the way we do it: light, dark, and special handling. This item works for us but "6 loads"?, I don't think so. I hope this is helpful.

Large load setting on your washing machine, warm water, laundry soap and oxyclean. Hang to dry. I wash mine at least 3x a week.

Sorry about the delay in replying. I looked at the covers for laundry instructions and there wasn't any specific details about washing so as of right now I don't know.

For really severe stains, I would recommend soaking for 20-30 minutes. Otherwise, you can use this in a washing machine in a normal washing cycle

The unit agitates the clothes during washing by spinning one direction, pausing, then spinning the opposite direction. The time is set with a manual timer. It does not spin to remove water. Normally I put clothes in and let them soak; then agitate approx. 10 min.; soak; agitate around 10 min. Then drain, remove clothes and wring out, replace clothes to rinse, and duplicate timing. I rinse twice. Watch that you don't use too much detergent - it doesn't take much. With too much, you'll have to rinse more times. With the first few loads, I have to rinse 5 or more times to get all the detergent out. I I'd like to find a small roller wringer (like old washing machines) to go with this unit.

This is a hard question to answer. The whole process for me takes 5-10 minutes. But that includes everything cleaned & put away when I'm done. If I just set things in the dishwasher I could probably save a little time in the morning. The machine has it's quarks but I like it.

About three or four mens white T shirts, three underpants and a light weight nite gown. Another load, 3 or 4 hand towels along with maybe 6-7 washcloths, and maybe a flannel nightgown. Purchased 8-9 months ago, used almost EVERY day. Great little washer. Plugged into normal 110 socket. Already paid for itself away from the laundromat.

I toss mine after 5-7 uses, depending on how dirty and/or large the loads were. I've read that some people toss them when they get squishy and/grayish, but I rarely see mine get to that point, even after 8-10 washes.Mine rarely create suds, there may be a few bubbles that pop quickly but I've never had the same suds as the chemical/commercial brands. That being said, I feel like the nuts always have my clothes clean and fresh. It is an adjustment to seeing no "evidence" of cleaning agents but they really do work!
