Yeah. Great info for people who are scared to even attempt to clean feather blankets. I' ve laundered mine for decades. 3 tips - 1 is baking soda alone works well if you don't want to use bleach after all gardeners have used b.soda to kill all kinds of things. 2 I clean in the summer months when the heat of the weather helps in drying those last stubborn clumps oh and fluffing by hand as was mentioned is a friend. I have two blankets per bed no winter time washing. 3 also works on feather coats - need to turn inside out and just hang to allow the final little wet spots to air dry Good video

Thanks! I have a nice down comforter.. but when it needed cleaning I thought that down couldn't be washed so took it to a dry cleaner. They didn't even want to do it, and charged me an arm and a leg, and when I got it back I wrapped it well and stored it; I haven't had the desire to go through that again! Now I feel I can put it in a duvet cover and actually use it, knowing I can wash it when needed.

Thank you for making this video!! I finally bought a down alternative duvet for about $75 a few months ago. It’s the most expensive thing I’ve ever bought for my bed and I’ve been so scared to wash it because I was worried it’d get all clumpy, not dry right, and not be soft anymore. I wonder why they don’t put a little paper with instructions in the packaging?

The thread count you likely have on your comforter is 220 percale fabric. It will sound scratchy. If you wash it, this should reduce this sound. Thanks for watching our videos - check out or 150 + bedding tips here - www.verolinens.com/how-to-luxury-bed-sheets-linens-tips/ .

I like using a centrifuge but only see them in older laundromats. I'm told the newer commercial washers take their place. With their high speed spin cycle. But my down piece is neither comforter or duvet. It's thicker, about 4in's. Very squared with cotton piped edges. Compartments with a feathered, squared edged, sort of barrier sewn on its edge & all sides.(2in) Looks approx. queen sized. Can I clean it the same way?

Hi there! I am not sure if you guys will see this comment in time, but long story short I bought a used down comforter in great condition. I of course wanted to wash it, so I washed it with warm water in a at home machine. When I took it out, it smelled like wet dog. It was in the dryer all day long and it still smelled awful. I rushed it to the dry cleaners! After having it dry cleaned, it did not smell at first. Then I laid it out all day on a drying rack, to let it breathe and that awful smell came back. Tomorrow morning, I plan to take it to the laundry mat and do exactly what your video said to do. I am thinking I should add two cups of white vinegar along with the bleach. I read that vinegar helps with mildew. I am worried that this comforter is ruined and mildew is starting to grow within the feathers. I am at a loss. Do you think this comforter is done for? I appreciate any feedback you have! Thank you, Sydney
@Verolinens
@Verolinens 4 жыл бұрын
Sorry that you are having this issue. Vinegar is a great cleaner and is gentle on the down. I might try that 1st. If this doesn't take care of the odor, try the bleach. As we have noted bleach can be a little hard on the cotton shell and the down, but it is an effective sanitizer.

You comforter may not have a lot of down in it. You don't need to lay it on the bed to bring loft in it, just grab it my an edge and vigorously shake it. If that doesn't bring air back into it, your comforter doesn't have enough down in it to provide loft. If it is keeping you sufficiently warm, your all set. If not, you may want to ensure your next one has more down.

We don’t have laundromats, can I use a home washing machine or wash without a machine in a big tub of water along with detergent and bleach? It can dry in the sun.

You can, but the larger drums in commercial washing machines and dryers are the best. You can put it in the sun, but you will want to ensure it is dry as it will mildew if not. Be sure to check out our 150+ bedding articles here www.verolinens.com/how-to-luxury-bed-sheets-linens-tips/

I don’t know if your still active on KZbin but I’m at boyfriends house, he has a down comforter and I spilled ecig juice on it. It’s like an oil. I dabbed a little laundry detergent on it, let it sit, then I scrubbed it and really massaged in the detergent. and rinsed with water but because the comforter is dark grey I can’t tell if I got the stain out. The water made it dark and the water spread so now the water spot is about a foot long. I’m hoping I got the stain out and I’m drying the comforter in a dryer on low heat. It’s a small dryer but since it’s only one spot I’m hoping that it’s okay. Please help me or reply!!! He just got it dry cleaned and spent all this money and I don’t want him to come home and see I left a giant stain. I just want to know if there’s anything else I should be doing!

I prefer an acidic wash like hair shampoo plus peroxide (3-1/2 percent). That plus the warm water plus the dryer heat is going to get rid of mites. You can also run the comforter through a medium dryer BEFORE you wash it to kill mites.

Shoulder area?
@Verolinens

Were not sure what you are questioning. If you are referring to wear, comforters typically wear out first in the area that is directly over your shoulders, this is due to the friction created between the down clusters as you toss and turn. Thanks for watching.

Thanks for the great tips! The only thing I disagree with though is letting the duvet air-dry on your mattress if you're trying to avoid dust mites. They thrive in humid environments so it's always best to avoid humidity in your mattress. I think it's best to hang your duvet somewhere else (preferably outside in the sun) if it's still damp after putting it in the dryer.
