Any tips that will make it quick and/or easy? lol
Thank you!!What would be an effective and easy way to wash my down comforter? It says to spot clean it and wash by hand?
even though it will cost you a good bit of cash... take it to the laundry..cleaner. Let them do it... if a degergent is left in the fabric.. eventually it willl break down the fibers and you will have and no comforter!What would be an effective and easy way to wash my down comforter?

Take the GB under for your best bet this weekend.
take it to the dry cleaners.
tips from an old drycleaner...is it white? if not, test for colorfastness - rub white hankie w/water %26amp; the soap you use on a hidden area...if it's ok, use FRONT loading washer, make sure to rinse 2x, spin long and fast, after 2 or 3 dry cycles, lay it flat %26amp; make sure there are no clumps, if so break them loose %26amp; redry...you can press w/hands on the down-filled parts to expose any leftover water - yes, a bit of work but MUCH less expensive than the dryclean shop
I have 3 of those down comforters and I've just put them in the washing machine.... They shrink down to nothing and wash quite well.. I have a super capacity washer... I just use a Woolite or gentle wash soap and use the extra rinse cycle.. If you don't have a super capacity washer you can take it to the laundry mat and use the double capacity washers and wash them there... I've had my comforters for about 6 yrs. plus and I wash them every few months or so.... Also, it's good to get a duvet cover to keep stains to a minimum....
Good luck
