Does the insert shrink? Does the filling bunch up after washing?

Have only washed once since I use quilt as an insert for my duvet. And NO it did NOT bunch up after washing. I air dried for 10 minutes and then let it dry naturally.

I have not washed it yet, just put it in my duvet cover and it lays perfectly so far. I have had it for about a month so far.

I bought the split king sheet set, so I can't answer that, but the sheets washed up beautifully, and I dried half at a time. I will never buy anything else ever.

When using mine I fill it just so it does not touch the bottom of the insert pan. If I use it for a long time I check to see if it needs additional water.

Yes. I've put it in the washer and dryer with no problems. Maybe there was some minor shrinkage, but nothing noticeable.

It is not pre-washed but when I washed and dried it I did not notice shrinking. You have to wash it when you get it to get all the starch out.

I put it in the washer on cold and the perm press cycle. It did not shrink. But it recommends drying it on the air only setting, but that doesn't really dry it. So I hung it up and turned it inside out after half a day.

I haven't noticed any shrinkage. I really like this bedspread and am so glad I bought it.

Yes I've washed it in my dishwasher multiple times and it is fine. It is a tight fit in my washer when I put it straight up and down. But lays down fine.

I have washed and dried mine twice. It did shrink some the first time, I only partially dried it and then finished with line drying. It may shrink more if you completely machine dry. Note that it is longer than wide so striped run wide way. I LOVE this spread personally.

I put it in the washer with my sheets on cold and tumble dry it on low, fluffing occasionally to keep it from bunching up. Haven't had any problems.

I actually didn't notice any shrinking. I've boiled, washed, and dried multiple times now.

I never wash mine but the filling has bunched up inside just using it on my bed

No, the filling is made of polyester. It doesn't lump up because it is divided into sections. My dogs love this bed, and I like that the cover is easily removed, laundered, and put back on the bed. We take care of dog odors by occasionally bathing the dogs, washing the bed cover and using Febreeze.

I've only had mine for a short time so haven't needed to wash it yet, but I think I read somewhere that you take the filling out and throw the cloth cover in the washing machine.

It's machine washable and it doesn't fade. I'm finding that the fill is separating and therefore it's become a bit "lumpy" Otherwise, for the price it's a good deal.

I wash mine after each use for sanitary reasons. They have held up VERY well in both the washer and dryer. I also recommend using Nellie's laundry soda and no fabric softeners. The inserts can go either on top of the diaper or in the pocket or both.

I haven't had them shrink for me. I do wash with hot water, rinse with cold, and tumble dry most of the time. These haven't lost their shape, distorted the embroidery design or shrunk away from the fabric borders I've added.

Mine is on a covered porch, so I haven't had to wash it yet. I might recommend that you unstitch one side, removing the filling and then handwash the cover and let it air dry. Alternatively, you could try using a little laundry deterget in water and a brush, then rinse thoroughly. Hope it works for you, because that's what I'm planning to do when the time comes! Good luck!
