Can I wash my duvet?

Can I wash my duvet is a question which many people ask themselves as they are concerned about potentially damaging these often light and very soft bedding products. However, the vast majority of duvets and duvet covers are now machine washable although it is essential that you check the manufacturers guidelines to see whether there are machine washable and at what temperature you should wash them.

While many of the duvets at the luxury end of the market are very delicate and often very expensive many of these are also machine washable although again you need to check the manufacturer’s guidelines. The materials which are used today are much tougher than much longer lasting than those from days gone by meaning that many people are now willing to pay that little bit extra for quality in the knowledge that it will last longer.
