Is it okay to wash this with sheets? I know it's recommended to be dried with bed sheets, but wasn't sure if it would be safe to wash with sheets?

I would only dry clean it. You could possibly wash it very gently and air dry it. But I will only dry clean mine to retain the softness.

We've washed it several times, and have had no issues. But that said, with any comforter you run the risk of the filling going into the pockets / ends when you wash it. We use gentle cycle, cold, and try not to wash it with anything else.

Hello - I have not washed mine yet, as it doesn't get a lot of use. When the time comes, I will definitely use the delicate cycle for washing, and will probably not place any of it in the dryer.

I washed the shams on delicate and dried them on low. They washed great.(still look new) I haven't washed the comforter yet. I feel like it would wash ok also but its so large I will probably take it to the laundry mat when the time comes.:)

I actually haven't washed it before. I'm sure you could wash it on a low setting. You could also let it air-dry to prevent any other wear and tear on it.

To me, it's like a giant bed sheet. I've washed my back drop in a regular machine with Tide deterrgent. One back drop as one load. I added a slight amount of bleach to the white back drop to preserve the brightness. I try not to wash it too much but when I do, I use a delicate setting and cold water. As for drying, I've used it in a regular dryer with medium heat. It works best if you immediately put it back up to avoid wrinkles.

That is how I washed it but I but my dryer settings on low heat. I did not let it dry long and I hung it up slightly damp. Did not have any problems.

I always wash my things too. You can dry it with a paper towel, it should be fine. It wouldn't take long to dry it at all.

Yes, I wash it in my home machine alone or with pillowcases and nothing else, on the gentle cycle. I use Ivory flakes which I dissolve first in hot water and then put in gently. Do not use bleach or any other water conditioner or fabric conditioning product. Handle the sheet gently when putting it in the dryer or taking it out. Dry it gently on low, and don't use any dryer sheets, or air dry for a few hours, preferably not outside. Never allow grease or oil to get on the sheets. Don't let cats, dogs, or any animals with claws on the sheet. Don't fold it up for storing in a linen closet, and don't spray any scents on it. Enjoy!

I agree with SKID NY on questioning how you would clean a regular mattress. Please keep in mind that this futon mattress too unwieldy to launder or clean like a blanket, which is why (like any other mattress) you should use sheets with it every time. (I also don't think any dry cleaners would want to take this in for cleaning.) You can spot-treat for spills or stains (check for color-fastness first), but do not expect this heavy futon mattress to be entirely washed.

I really don't know. Fortunately, I do not have the problem. I would suggest to wash it thoroughly i.e. Top Job, Mr.Clean, Windex, etc. and then set it outside to dry thoroughly. Fresh air seems to work wonders. Before clothes dryers, everyone loved the smell of bedsheets dried outside. Also, a last resort.....remove the rubber pad and do without. Hope these suggestions help.

I wash mine in my machine on regular cycle warm water. Dry in dryer on normal. Washes beautifully and dries so soft!! I use it for medical trach pads, trach collars and g-tube pads. So it gets washed a LOT on deep steam setting! Still comes out beautiful and soft with no signs of wear.

According to Marrikas the tag says "dry clean." However, they also said that both the cover and the fill can withstand water. My interpretation from their response is that you're on your own, but machine washing will probably be OK. I have personally machine-washed down comforters in the past. Assuming there is nothing unique about this one, it should be OK. (Cold water, gentle cycle, low heat dryer.)

I haven't used it much but, I have washed it once. I wash it by itself on regular load and I dry it on cool to medium heat. It came out good for me.... Good luck!

I have the full/queen and I washed it in my older Kenmore washer. I washed it on the delicate setting and dried it on the low heat setting. The comforter (and pillow shams) came out just fine.
