I love it except for one thing. It feels very stiff. Did anyone else have this problem? Does it get softer with washing? Thank you!

I haven't washed it, but would assume after multiple washes it will soften.

Yes it feels like SOFT cotton. It washes wonderfully and is reversible. I would definitely buy it again, but it is yellow!

It feels just like a plush blanket. It washed up perfectly, and gave the bed a nice layer of cushion. I love both of the ones I bought. I've only had them a month though, and use them on our spare beds, so they don't get a lot of wear. Hope this helps.

I've only had mine for about two months and I haven't noticed it getting any softer. I knew it was a 'medium' soft when I bought it but it is a little more firm than I had anticipated.

Yes I've washed it several times. Use a gentle cycle and air dry. It thumps to much in the dryer

Hmm... Ours wasn't stiff but it takes kids a bit to get used to it. It's hard at first then once you get in the rhythm its great. We did buy ours about 5 years ago so it's possible they changed the way it's made. Sorry not much help.

I feel like mine has become a fair bit softer in certain spots that are more laid in. The foot end is still pretty stiff but the upper end where we normally sleep sinks in deeper than I like. We've had ours for 2 years now and flipped it once. Not over though just around so the foot end becomes the head end. I actually came to the page today to see if the warranty covers this... sadly it doesn't look like it does.

Sadly have to admit. . .Haven't washed it yet. I am waiting to have the time to take it to an industrial laundromat big enough to try to have plenty of room inside to wash it in a delicate cycle. And then hang it out to dry. Here's to fingers crossed!

I plan on trying to wash it in washing machine and yes prob on the gentle cycle- but haven't yet - others claim to have and I'll soon find out as well. But was told do not use fabric softner - since it is microfiber.

I washed it in cold water with fabric softener and put it in the dryer on med heat. It seems fine to me and I really love it

The large printed side is not soft, but isn't exactly harsh either, with a few washing may soften (I have only laundered one time) the small printed side is soft. Love the print and colors. Would purchase again. Hope that helps.

I actually bought this for my sister for Christmas, but I did ask her and she said that she has washed and dried it multiple times and it hasn't shrunk any, she did however say that she washed it in cold water and dried it on low heat. She said she absolutely loves how soft and colorful it is. Hope this helps.

No it is not crinkly. Neither is it stiff. In fact you can wash it easily and the material is quite flexible.

After months of use (and a couple of washes) I noticed the occasional string from the felt. My son lets me know if it's bothering him and I just trim it off. He's never complained that it feels hot or itchy.

Its.soft.enough to the touch and.pretty but doesnt conform.well to your body. It just seems to be on top and kinda.stiff. It kinda drapes a little but doesnt wrap around you or feel cozy. I have not washed mine yet.

So far which i've been using them for 2 months but I've always heard that they get softer after every wash, and it is true thus far! I like mine better now that they've been washed more :)

Yes! I have had mine for about 6 months and have washed it at least weekly. It still feels like new. Always wash in cold water, tumble dry low and never use fabric softener or dryer sheets.
