Has anyone washed this curtain? Will it shrink if you wash it in cold water and hang to dry.

I have washed the curtain one time on the gentle cycle in cold water and hung it to dry and noticed no shrinkage. It looked the same as it did before I had washed it.

It says "Dry Clean Only." I washed it on warm and tumbled it on low--it shrank about 8 inches in its length. It is a lovely curtain, very heavy. I will replace it and use the shrunken fabric elsewhere. I should have known better--will wash on COLD and hang to dry next time!

This quilt seems to be pre-washed & pre-shrunk. Doesn't say on the label though. I laid it on my bed when I received it, then washed it. It did not shrink . I washed it in cold water only, low temperature dry.

I have washed it twice. No shrinkage...BUT...I used cold water and low temp setting on dryer. Just so you know!

I've never washed it, but the tag states it's machine washable in cold temperature. I have the king size, so it would most likely need washed in a high capacity commercial washer/dryer.

I believe so. I haven't washed it yet, but it is like a denim material. I plan on washing it in cold and low drier setting or may hang to dry.

I washed mine. Machine wash on the delicate cycle and hang dry. Came out fine.

I machine wash it and hang it dry to be safe. Have not tried it in the dryer.

B4 washing, it was great. After washing in cold water it shrunk more than 1/2 its original size and now sits in my box of things I don't want to throw out but I have no current use for. I would not recommend purchase.

I washed it in cold water and dried it on the medium heat setting, and it shrunk a little. I am not sure how much it shrunk.. maybe an inch? It seems to stretch back out a bit - like jeans that shrink, but stretch out again after you wear them.

Based on what I know about fabrics, this "should" wash well. I would not dry it... I would hang to dry. Mine has not been laundered. Sorry I can't be of more help.

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 gave it as a gift so not sure about dryer. I think it is safe to wash on gentle with cold water or I would not buy a "dry clean only" bedding. I would hang it over shower curtain rod to dry.

It is 100% unshrunk cotton. IT WILL SHRINK. How much depends of how it is washed and dried. Cold wash + hang dry = minimum shrinkage. Hot wash + hot dryer = max shrinkage. I bought a Size 0 expecting it to shrink. It started off slightly too big, and now it is too small. It shrank ~4" in the pant leg and ~4" sleeve length after hot wash and hot dryer. If planning to shrink it, definitely start incrementally.

Yes, I wash mine using the cold water/gentle cycle all the time and hang it to dry without any problems.

I wash mine. I love it. It keeps the wind chill off of me. I actually use it to sleep with nightly, so I wash it frequently with my sheets. Still holding the color and doesnt fade. I low dry it alone/ AIR DRY

I have always dry cleaned it. Not sure, but it might shrink if laundered. Hope this helps.
