Can this be washed in a regular washer. It is so heavy dry that I can't imagine what it will weigh wet. I don't want to ruin my washer motor.

I haven't washed it yet, but when I do I will update my review. I am thinking it will be to heavy and I will take it to the laundromat

I just got mine and always wash new things before using. It washed fine in my regular washer, and dried in my regular drier too, no problems at all.

The first washer i had an old Sears 900 series could wash it although barely . i have a newer Maytag with an extra large capacity that it does just fine in. So I guess it depends on the size washer you have if it can handle the wet weight of it. Also. I take a fine tooth comb to it after drying comes out so nice. I love this blanket!

Yes I have. It it is heavy but my washer has never broke. I've also have but my blanket in the dryer for 20 mins and rotate the blanket put in for another 20 mins. Pull it out and air dry the blanket the rest of way.

I washed it at home. Big mistake. First wash too. It was really too big for the washer and it may have worked if only I had used the gentle cycle. Ripped it up. Had to throw it away. Bummer, because I actually loved the light weight of the polyester. Take it to a laundry mat with large washers and use the delicate cycle or take to the cleaners.

Yes I've machine washed mine a few times since I've had it and it's still in the same shape. I took it to the laundromat because it's way to big for my regular washer

I did machine wash, at a professional laundry place. Extra large load. I also placed in the extra large dryer and dried until slightly damp. Do not over dry. Mine came out fine. Good luck....

It is very thin and has almost no filling, so I would say yes it would easily fit in a regular washer. I would wash it on a gentle cycle, as it is polyester and quite fragile. Also to note: the part that looks like brown in the picture is actually burgundy.

Yes it can fit in a washer. I have a front load washer and it fits just fine.

I wash this one in my top loader with super hot water and in my dryer on low. It's been over three years and it's still going strong. The one I bought at Target was destroyed in less than a year.

I wouldn't wash it often. I have washed mine once in cold water and very low heat in dryer. Came out perfect, I do have front load washer. I see myself washing it once a month.

Yes it can be washed in the washer. But in general after a few uses and washing my mop clip broke and I could no longer use it. I don't know if it was from the washing or the use. I only used it a few times. Hope this help Drmom1992

You can wash it but use warm water (cold water will make it brittle). To keep the washer from getting unbalanced you can throw some towels in the cycle. Air dry or put the dryer on air dry (no heat).

I've only ever washed it on a regular or heavy duty cycle, never added the soak cycle and then I throw it in the dryer.

I wouldnt try it in the washing machine as it would frey on edges. I wash every 4 days in basin or big bucket and hang dry.

Hi! I'm sorry I took so long. I was not home. I just checked and YES it can be washed. You have to put it in a white pillow case Put the machine on cold & gentle cycle. Do not put in dryer. I hope this was helpful for you. Have a great weekend �

It is too thick to wash in a home machine. Maybe a commercial washer but drying time would be forever. I will have mine dry cleaned. It is very warm, thick comforter.

I have washed mine in the washer, its just fine. Just make sure you spin cycle on a low speed. Also air dry (don't throw in the dryer)

I haven't washer mine yet. When I do wash it, I'll put it in a bucket with cold water and some mild soap, and swish it around. Air dry. It'll be fine.
