Tag says: "Hand wash cold water, mild suds, air dry." Should also fluff by brushing after drying!

No, it is not washable. Honestly, I've never tried to clean it. The head part of the doll is hard, so it's not washable.

We have run Elmo through the washing machine twice on a regular cycle then hung to dry. I was worried about his eyes breaking, but they still look great.

I haven't had to wash mine, just pick it up an shake off the sand. The label says not to machine wash or dry it. The instructions are to wash the surface with warm water and mild soap by hand. Also it says it should not be dry cleaned or ironed.

Mine is stainless steel, and yes, it should be washable. Try using a vegetable brush or a small toothbrush to dislodge some of the particles before you wash it.

Yes it is machine washable the instructions are on the tag...just follow those, they are fairly easy. Hope that helped!

you can wash it anyway you want. I have already washed mine. It did not hurt it.

I have never washed mine. I keep it covered with a mattress pad/cover, that I do wash periodically, but have no need to clean this particular cover as it doesn't ever get dirty.

The box just says that it is washable, personally, I wouldn't. I hope this helps.

No, it is not washable. It needs to be dry cleaned. It is synthetic material.

I actually haven't washed it before. I'm sure you could wash it on a low setting. You could also let it air-dry to prevent any other wear and tear on it.

I don't clean it - but I would suspect a warm wash cloth could be used to wipe any stains on it or give it a quick refresher. There are leather fasteners on it so it could not be washed in a normal way.

Yes it is washable. Dry cleaning not necessary. Wash in warm water, color safe detergent and hang to dry.

Yes it is washable. I would take precaution to avoid shrinkage, though, such as not use high-temperatures.

Yes, I just wash it with soap and water. It washes out pretty easily. I'm not sure if it is dishwasher safe.

They sell a special solution to wash it with, but I think you can use a mild detergent on it. Something like Dawn. I haven't had to wash mine yet, so I can't really make a recommendation.

no, it is not washable, but I brush it out after each use, and it works well

I haven't owned it that long, so I never never washed it. I just keep it in the bag it came in. I would assume you could just shake it out and get the dust off.
