How to Wash a Woolrich Down Comforter

A Woolrich down comforter is one of the warmest blankets you will ever own. A Woolrich down comforter is also one of the softest, most durable comforters on the market. Although your Woolrich down comforter is extremely durable compared to others, it is still made of down and requires a little extra care when it comes time to wash it. Here are a few tips to help you safely wash your Woolrich down comforter.

Things You'll Need

• Woolrich down comforter(bought at Bath Bedding or Target brands inc)
• Washer/Dryer
• Non bleach Laundry detergent

Instructions

1. Place you Woolrich down comforter into the washing machine. If you have a Woolrich duvet cover you can wash them together if room permits. Make sure your washing machine is big enough to accommodate the large comforter. I have a Woolrich white goose down comforter and it barely fits into my washing machine. Many down alternative comforters are smaller. If your washing machine is too small, it will cause the down blanket to become scrunched up, making it impossible for all the soap to rinse out during the cycle.

2. Turn your washing machine to the "normal" wash setting using only cold water. On the tag of your Woolrich down comforter is will specify using cold water only. Make sure the load size is also on the largest setting available.

3. Once the water is covering your Woolrich down comforter half way, add a cup of non- bleach laundry detergent into the water. Make sure the soap is not directly on any dry part of the goose down comforter as it can sometimes leave a stain.

4. Put your Woolrich down comforter into the dryer and set it on the low delicate or tumble dry cycle. Some people like to use high heat as it dries the thick down quicker, but it will also shrink your blanket. If your Woolrich down comforter is still wet after the first delicate cycle is complete, just throw it in on the delicate cycle again until it's completely dry.
