if you have an extra large home machine (commercial ones are more likely to cause increased damage) and one of the special detergents available for down or fine washables, then sure, wash away. Like any item with special care suggestions, your comforter will last longer if you care for it correctly. The oils in your body, cigarette smoke, etc. ( use a search engine and do your homework) break down the feathers. They need to be fluffed daily, and the instructions will tell you not to sit heavy items on it... including sitting on it yourself. A duvet cover is recommended to keep all of your feathers, as they will work themselves out over time. This is one of the better brands, and has a great price, and very minimal feather loss. Once it"s wet, it is very heavy. The more any of them are agitated (ringing it out by hand will break the feathers down, too. The height you will lose is the term "loft.") Washing by machine will shorten it's lifespan. I might do it myself ... occasionally. But not without a very good reason. Good Luck.

I wouldn't use it in a washer unless you wash it on delicate. I usually like to hand wash mine.

Yes, it is machine washable. I had no problem washing it in a washing machine. Cold water, hang to dry.

I have not put it in a machine washer myself, only surface washing as needed, but if i were to say a gentle wash and and a soft tumble dry or air dry would be the best way to go.

Yes, it can be washed in the washing machine. You can expect pizza sauce to stain it. You can also expect some shrinkage after washing in hot water.

No, you can not put it in the washing machine. You can use a wet towel to wipe it down.

I have one and i would not recommend washing it in the washing machine. Its better if its really dirty to hose it off with a water hose. I think a washing machine would just mess it up.

No, I don't think you can machine wash it, it has a piece in the top rim which makes it unable to wash.

Pull them inside out and let them dry. No they can not be washed in a machine.

I have never tried to wash it because it is easily cleaned by wiping it with a damp cloth but I'm sure if it came down to it you could wash it in a washing machine

I have never washed mine in a machine. I would be concerned if I did that the cords would get tangled on the spinner in the machine. I would wash it by hand in a sink or tub using only a mild soap.

I imagine so. I would hand wash and air dry. I don't think it would do to well in a washer (not even on a gently cycle).

In the order that you asked, No, Yes, and No. When it came time to wash mine, I just put it in a large load washer at a laundromat.

No, it's not designed to be washed. It will also start falling apart after the first wash.

I don't see why not. I machine washed mine when I first got it and then put it in the dryer on delicate and it's fine. Don't know if it will stand up to repeated dryings but you could let it drip dry on a hanger in the shower after using it and wash it on hot in the machine once a week or something.

Their own description claims: "No pre-wash necessary, Machine wash and dry." There were no qualifications about how you washed it in a washing machine, so wash it normal like anything else.

No , I think it says you can wipe it off with soap and water. It is to hard to put in a washing machine
