How well does it wash ?

I never wore it against my skin because the fabric irritated my skin and the Velcro poked me. I always wore it over a tank top or maternity pants that fully cover my abdomen. Therefore, I've not yet felt the need to clean it. Given the quality, I imagine if you hand wash it then you won't have any problems.

Following a surgical procedure I have to wear this binder for a year. I realized after only a few days that I couldn't wear it against my skin because of irritation, so I always wear it over a shell or undergarment of some kind and then a shirt over that. Have said that, I haven't really gotten it dirty so I haven't had cause to wash it, but I HAVE worn one out (the velcro receiver pad deteriorated after four months of daily wear) and this is the second one. In general I am very pleased that it is as "wearable" as it is . . .

I don't know. Maybe I should have tried that first, but the velcro continually poked into me. I actually just gave it away today. I don't have a very long torso, and maybe that would have made a difference.

I havn't tried it, but from the reviews it seems many have tried it successfully. I always wash it either in office or before going to gym.

I say yes. I've washed it in the dishwasher a dozen times or more. No visible negative effects.

Really well. I have washed is a few times now, on a gentle cycle and it looks as good as new!

I've only washed it in the dishwasher a couple of times but have had no issue. However, I usually wash by hand.

I think it's supposed to be handwashed--at any rate, handwashing is what I do to it. It cleans very easily.

It washes very easily with a scrubby sponge and dish detergent. I find it comes clean and looks like new.

Yes. I have washed with a little bleach and it has been just fine. It is like a thick towel.

Yes,So far so good. I have only washed it once though. I really like it. I'm ordering one for my daughter in law for Christmas.

Not at all! I have washed mine at least five times and its as good as when I took it out of the bag. I know what you mean when you ask the question, especially after you wash it. Well worth the money. Take the chance, you will not be disappointed.

I haven't tried washing it. It doesn't feel like it would "live" through the process. I would recommend dry cleaning.

I washed it without a problem. i had previously just washed the cover but needed to wash the entire thing.

I washed mine on light wash cycle. Not exactly gentle but close so it should be fine.

Just purchased it so I haven't had to wash it yet. Sorry I can't tell you how it would do in the wash

I have pretty good success just rinsing it out. I don't wash it with soap and water very often.

I washed it prior to use on gentle and then dried it on low and had no problems.

Not at all. I've actually washed it as well and let it air dry. Has held up well.
