Do you want to keep your comforter fluffy and soft? Follow these six simple washing and drying tips from City Laundry:

• Prepare Your Comforter: Before you wash your comforter, read its label to make sure you follow any special instructions about how to properly clean it. Inspect your comforter for holes or loose threads and mend them before washing it.
• Remove Stains: If your comforter has any stains on it, use a mixture of baking soda, water, and vinegar to remove them before washing. Spot treating your comforter will ensure that it comes out of the wash perfectly clean.
• Set The Washer: Load your comforter into the washer and select the “delicate” setting. Choose the water temperature according to the instructions on the comforter’s label. If possible, add an additional rinse cycle, and use only a small amount of gentle detergent.
• Add Tennis Shoes: This might sound a bit strange, but add a pair of clean white tennis shoes to the washer with your comforter. This will help to balance out the load and clean your comforter more thoroughly.
• Set The Dryer: After washing, put your comforter in the dryer, and make sure it is evenly distributed. Put the tennis shoes in the dryer as well to help even out the load once again. Use the low heat setting, and stop the dryer periodically to fluff your comforter, ensuring that it dries out evenly.
• Hang Your Comforter: Finally, after drying, hang your comforter outside in the sun. Sunlight will help ward off any lingering dust mites and will prevent mildew from forming.
