Can I use Woolite to wash this?

When I worked in the lingerie department of a nation-wide store, we never recommended Woolite. We used Dreft, the baby detergent. Never scrub, just gently swoosh. Rinse and air dry. That should do it.

All of the silk manufacturers we visited in China recommended washing silk in mild shampoo rather than laundry detergent...

I would hand wash this item with Woolite Delicates Care Liquid Laundry Detergent

Yes. I machine wash gentle/silk cycle with a little Woolite and lay on a drying rack for two days. No problems in 2 years.

another thing---i hand wash in warm water (not hot) with the same soap i use for the stockings--a special MILD soap--i heard Woolite is good--but have nor used it.

Yes....but take it to the laundry mat and wash it. Put it in one of the front loads (medium).

Just hit the answer: NO!Use it until it is full of tarnish then purchase a new one. It is infused with a cleaning element that would be destroyed by washing.

Yes. This is what you WANT to use Woolzies for. The fabric softener 'coats' the microfiber pads. I've noticed that my cleaning towels are more absorbent and softer now.

Yes you can. I have washed it already and just dried it out. Its very nice product in my opinion.

Yes I would hand wash with it. You would use very little. Very concentrated. We love it. Clothes smell fresh. No chemical odors. And soft. With no fabric Softner used.

Hello Andrea,We do not remove the lanolin from our wool, The wool is washed with a non-toxic and gentle detergent which removes dirt but not the lanolin.Sincerely,Christian Mourguet

I don't know. I haven't tried washing it. I think I would just wash it by hand in warm, soapy water. A dishwasher may be tough on this material.

Do you buy raw, unwashed roving? If so, you need to wash and dry it first then felt with it. I guess you could use raw roving with the machine but washed is so much easier to use. I wash mine then card it with a carding machine (dye it after washing) then I felt the wool though you could buy washed, carded, and dyed wool that is so much easier to use

I haven't washed mine yet, but I was planning on just using warm water and Woolite. They should be fine

Just do not put it in washer dryer. Hand wash in woolite, lay flat to air dry. Problem solved.

Yes, you can. We machine washed it many times. If I remember correctly, there's an instruction on the manual for you to follow.

Yes! I put mine in my washing machine with cold water and a light soap. Just do not let it spin! I let mine soak for a while and then took it out to air dry then drained the washing machine. It helped get some of the slick stuff off the top.

I have not....but I wouldn't try it unless you are willing to have it be ruined. Ever wash a wool sweater in the machine? The combination of water and friction causes the wool to "felt," which makes it shrink and get dense. Since the wool filling is inside a cotton cover, it seems that it would get enough friction to felt, and it's not like you can comb it out. You might be left with a lots-o-lumps comforter. And since the cover is 100% cotton that could shrink too. Also, the wool would soak up so much water and it could become so heavy it might damage your machine, or the water may never spin out and you could be left with a moldy mess. If you just want to freshen it up, hang it in the sun (if you are in an area that has sun this time of year!) or throw it in the dryer on extra low (if you have it) or fluff, and add a sachet of lavender, or a rag that has your favorite essential oils dripped on it. Try to avoid putting a dryer sheet in there, dryer sheets contain chemicals that can coat the fibers. If you had a spill or something, treat it like you would carpet with spot treating and a mild soap. Try to dab instead of scrubbing. Or look for a "green" dry cleaner such as Blue Sky. Sorry I can't give you a definite answer, but my experience with washing machine disasters has taught me caution!
