How do you get rid of all that lint when it goes in the wash?

I don't. I have lots of these blankets - they feel so nice when they're new. But they are garbage. They all ball and put off LOTS of lint. I have a couple of white ones that drive me crazy! I think after lots and lots of washes it gets better - but I dont' use the white ones all of the time, so they may never get to the point where they don't give off lint. I keep buying them thinking maybe they'll perfect the technique - but I just think this particular kind of blanket is always going to be linty - which is too bad - because as I said, they are super soft and nice when they are new.

After washing, first tumble dry, lay it flat on the bed, and comb it at an angle with the fine side of the comb. You should be able to pick up most of the lint. Then turn it over and do the other side. Its really a great blanket. I haven't had to comb it since then.

There wasn't any lint in the washer (gentle cycle cold like the tag said) so I thought great some of the reviews were wrong and tumble dry low heat which I did and WOW. The blanket is full of fuzz when I took it out of the dryer. Guess I'll see what happens next time I pulled off some of the fuzz but it's all over the blanket.

empty the closet. clean closet surface with a damp cloth to remove dust, lint and cobwebs. wear rubber gloves (it isn't dangerous stuff IMO but I wouldn't want it on my hands for an hour). take a lint free towel and dampen it with the oil (you can also use a foam brush available at Jo-ann Michaels Home Depot and Lowes) Evenly apply to the Cedar surfaces. Avoid drips on non-cedar floors, builtins and such (clean up promptly to avoid stains). Allow closet to dry a day before putting clothes in that may contact the treated cedar.

You can machine wash it. It's best if you don't wash ithe with stus like towels so it doesn't pick up a bunch of the lint from other stuff.

I usually shake the filter out in the outside trash can and get as much lint and dirt off as possible then wash out in warm soapy water, you can let it soak and rinse with cool clean water and air dry completely before reusing.

Machine wash in hot water. Then, dry on the delicate cycle only.Make certain you wash and dry this microfiber mitt only with other microfiber items otherwise you will have excessive lint on your microfiber mitt and towels.

I have used my wash ball for over a year & it still is cleaning. Remember to put it in the sun for an hr once a month to refresh it. Best thing I did was buy the wash ball. Have saved lots of money & clothes are clean. I've also noticed I don't have as much "fuzz" in the dryer lint tray.

Really, just wash by themselves (not with any other laundry) in cold water with extra rinse and NEVER use any fabric softener. You get into trouble when you use detergents with extra ingredients like fabric softeners, oxyclean, brighteners, etc. Dry without fabric softeners on low heat. If you air dry the cloth will become stuff and scratchy. And if you wash or dry with other laundry you risk lint balls ruining the cloth.

I use wipes or a wet paper towel on the exterior. You can remove sheets and wash them. I have 2 sheets to alternate on laundry day!

My son washed his. It doesn't look much cleaner but, no harm was done. He also rubbed some cornstarch on his after reading on line that it takes away some of the stickiness of this type of thing. It worked. No more lint, and fuzz stuck all over it.

I use a very soft linen cloth. Something like a tea towel. I ever so lightly moisted it with water and that usually does the trick.

Use a feminine wash and wash cloth to clean the unit after each use. This has worked extremely well for me...

I let it dry, then use a stiff bristle brush to clean it.After that, I run it thru my washer with light detergent on a gentle cycle and let it air dry.

I've never noticed lint on my ergo like I did my k'tan. I've washed it and it still looks new!

I think you have to take to the dry cleaner. I have a cover for feather bed that can be washed with regular laundry.

I wash mine with dish detergent. Run it under water to get it wet, then put a few drops of detergent on both sides, agitate the surface with your fingers. Afterwards, run it under the water again to rinse while squeezing the excess suds/soap out. When you're finished let it air dry.

I am very satisfied with this washer. I do not know how it handles lint but it is not a problem. Black garments come out fine.

I just wipe it off with a damp towel. My daughter really only uses hers to sleep in so it doesn't get very dirty.
