I'm a guy so bear with me, I have some silk shirts I'd like to clean with this, safe? Also for $10, how many things can I clean?

From Dryel's website: Dryel should not be used on: Leather, Velvet, Suede, Fur, Silk or Rayon.

I normally place about 4 blouses in the bag at a time and yes you can use it for silk. Just make sure you hand wash anything that has a spot in it. This really is only for general washing but does work great and save a fortune in dry cleaning!

Well, I never cleaned silk shirts using dryel, but I just read the directions re that. Said that "silks and rayons are discouraged due to possible water markings." Any other material is fine. You have to throw away the sheet you put in the bag to dry clean the clothes, but the bag can be used many times. You can clean as many as 3-5 items in the bag. Hang up afterwards to air. I like it.

I haven't been, just been using the dry cloths. I do think, though, it would be fine. Just make sure you have the right cleaning spray. A spray specific to the kind of device and these cloths would be fine.I compared these cloths to the cloths that are included in the purchase of sprays and everything was the same. Just read a few product descriptions of sprays including cloths as a package deal to make sure. Should be alright though.

"I agree with D; You should buy a cleaning kit and watch the video on YouTube on how to clean it." Here is one: (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xVsSX5RPaoY) "Very informative! The cleaning kit should be around $12 through Amazon. Good luck! And yes keep it oily all the time (perhaps not as much as came in the box) and try to keep your fingers off the blade."

Hi, Natasha,Thanks for the inquiry. Since the comforter is made from silk, I highly recommend you to bring this to a professional dry cleaning service to clean the comforter. Let me know if you have any other questions. Have a great day!Cheers,J. Lee

I haven't tried washing it yet, but I have heard that you can machine wash silk

It is cloth so I would think you can. If you think it is going to get dirty then if I were you I would go to somewhere like Wal-Mart and get a cheap can of scotch guard and spray the cloth on both sides. You would probably need 2 to 3 cans to do this, but scotch guard is cheap. And then for sure you could spot wash it. There is no where where you can take off the cloth and wash it in a machine. But if you do as I directed you definate could spot wash it. I personally have no need to have to wash mine so I don't know if you could spot wash the fabric as is, but I am guessing you could, but without scotch guarding it may keep a small stain.

I just got mine and haven't thought deeply about it, but wouldn't recommend it, even if the tag said yes (It's in a vacation house, so I can't go look). It has a very rich, satin-y look, and I would think dry cleaning (you could use one of the bulk or discount places) would preserve it better. It's a very attractive set. But if you were worried about pets or kids, you might want to look at something more obviously washable.

You can put about 3-6 shirts/sweaters, depending on whether you're talking t-shirts or hooded sweatshirts, and then add some socks, washcloths, hand towels. Jeans/pants - You could put 4 in, but sweatpants, I'd put 3, and again add some misc little stuff. With sheets - a fitted & flat queen sheet can go in together, but unfortunately sometimes it seems to cause one of them to somehow get caught over the center "swish" piece. So I typically wash one of them & add a bunch of other small stuff. Not for washing pillows or blankets - though you could toss a throw in. It does a good job, but the thing I hate most about it is if you keep it somewhere when not in use & then wheel it to a sink to hook up to water, the wheeling isn't the most smooth in the world. This is primarily related to the leveling knob on the side, which can pop out of the frame a lot. So if your load is imbalanced with a bigger item (if ya can fit it), that helps level it, but then is a pain in the neck. It cleans well, but it's definitely a moderate size closer to the small side than large. Hope that makes sense!

You may want to purchase the larger bottle of cleaning solution, small bottle will clean approximately 60 albums, and more drying cloths!!

I use 1 pod for all sizes,there is no way to break it in 2 for smaller loads and 1 pod works great on xlarge loads.I have never had an issue with getting my clothes clean,thet work great.

I am not sure never knew that this can even do cleaning. I don't think so and never tried to clean anything with it always used for ironing the shirts and other delicate fabrics

Absolutely! You're going to love this thing. Be sure to pick up an extra set of cleaning pads. Happy cleaning!

Excellent steamer for t-shirts and jersey knit materials but not specially a cleaner,but makes most items wrinkle free or odor free (as to prolong dry cleaning process). I used this item mostly for new brought items to kill any germs that might be in items from persons trying items on.

About three or four mens white T shirts, three underpants and a light weight nite gown. Another load, 3 or 4 hand towels along with maybe 6-7 washcloths, and maybe a flannel nightgown. Purchased 8-9 months ago, used almost EVERY day. Great little washer. Plugged into normal 110 socket. Already paid for itself away from the laundromat.

It's meant for delicate fabrics, like lingerie, especially good for bras. I soak delicates in warm water sprinkled with a few Forever New granules, let them sit for 10-15 minutes, moosh the water and dissolved granules through the item, then rinse, ring the item gently, and air dry. My lingeries last years longer with this product. This seems pretty expensive for baby's clothes, but that's your call.

I use the clothes that you come with the Bravia, and you can purchase more of them as well. I wet the cloth and use a combination of White Vinegar, Mr. Clean and water to clean my floors with. The cloth is a material similar to a washcloth

It's not bad to clean. I just rinse it and wipe it quickly with a sponge. I only use it for protein so it kinda has a lingering smell of protein but it's better than over washing it. Don't do that because it battery powered and it might mess it up. The bottom that covers the batteries is pretty tight though so quick rinses shouldn't mess it up. I use mine everyday twice a day and it still works great after about 2-3 months.
