Comforters offer warmth and coziness—but over time, they collect dust, sweat, and allergens. Regular cleaning helps extend their lifespan and keeps your bedding fresh. Whether you choose to wash it at home or hire professionals, here’s a simple step-by-step guide to properly clean your comforter.
Step 1: Check the label
Before you begin, always read the care label on your comforter. It will tell you if the item is machine washable, dry-clean only, or requires special handling.
Step 2: Pre-treat stains
Inspect the comforter for visible stains. Spot-treat using a gentle stain remover or a mix of mild detergent and water. Let it sit for 10–15 minutes before washing.
Step 3: Wash with care
Use a large-capacity washing machine to avoid bunching. Set it on a gentle or delicate cycle with cold or warm water and a mild detergent. Avoid bleach or fabric softener, which can damage the filling.
Step 4: Dry thoroughly
Transfer the comforter to a large-capacity dryer and tumble dry on low heat. Add a few clean tennis balls or dryer balls to prevent clumping. Make sure it is completely dry to avoid mold or mildew.
Step 5: Fluff and air out
Once dry, fluff the comforter and let it air out for a few hours. This helps restore its shape and freshness.
