How does it fare in the washing machine? Does it stain easily? Retain smells? How long does it take to dry?

It washes well and doesn't stain. The color doesn't fade. The zipper is heavy duty and the stitching is still in place after one year. It cleans up nicely and doesn't have a lingering oder. It still smells new. I don't throw it in the dryer because it's neoprine. I hang it on the clothes line to dry.

I do not know what the manufacturer says about using it in the washing machine, but YES I often use it in the washing machine. Sometimes alone and sometimes with a small amount of fragrance free washing liquid. Do not use too much b/c it is so concentrated. I have even used it to wash my sheets so they will stay fresh in the closet. It leaves clothes very soft when you use it in the washing machine.

I haven't had a need to wash it yet, it's used in a spare room. It is made of polyester & cotton. The tag says to dry clean for best results.

Hey there , I can only speak for myself and no it does not. I never washed mine before using it there was no smell at all. I've had mine for about over 2-3months now no smell has ever occurred. Hope this helps ! Good luck :)

I have washed and dried this a lot and it has had no problems still as good as new. I do try to hang it out side to dry when the weather is nice. so it has been washed a lot and dried in different ways and still holds up great.

Yes. It can go in the washing machine. I haven't had to wash it yet, but I cover it with a blanket to keep I clean.

Hey I haven't found the stain on it, as I used for nearly 2 month, so I think there is no need to get off it. I wash it every time I used it, easy to clean I think.

Yes, it washes beautifully. I put it in a large front load washer, then I dried it on medium temperature for awhile until it was just damp and hung it outside to finish drying it smelled great from hanging outside! There was no shrinkage at all. Looks brand new.

It's machine washable and it doesn't fade. I'm finding that the fill is separating and therefore it's become a bit "lumpy" Otherwise, for the price it's a good deal.

It dries quickly and I polish afterwards, so I have not encountered any problems. Mind you this is not a cream like polish that can have access material in a place. This will either be absorbed or dry so not much left to stain clothes with.

I have used it in the washing machine once so far; I tied it inside a pillowcase and and it worked fine. However, I wouldn't recommend putting it in the dryer if you use a fabric conditioner bar instead of regular dryer sheets. Mine came out of the pillow case and scraped a bunch fabric softener goop onto my hat. Not a fun cleanup.

Hi Troy, I have gotten it on beach towels numerous times when I was using it and it always came out in the wash. I did not pre-treat it with anything, so I would say that it does not stain. I'm surprised that one answer said that it did stain, I wonder what it stained and if it was on there for a long time. I think I had it on for several days, maybe 2 to 4 days and it still washed right out.

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.

Yes, it could stain easily, however it responds well with washing it with a bleach solution. For the price, its worth the effort.
