Do I put my comforter into the dryer after washing it? It is just a regular thin comforter.?

Answer 1

I put it in the dryer for about fifteen min. the line dry it.

Answer 2

I was told that putting a large bath towel in the dryer along with the comforter, winter jacket etc., helps the interior from lumping and speeds the drying process. I also ALWAYS have 2 tennis balls in my dryer to kinda beat the clothes around and shortens the drying time. A bit noisy and I stopped investigating after a few times. Just have to be careful I get to the balls before the dogs when I pull clothes out of the dryer or they're off and running!

Answer 3

The comforter should have a care label on it somewhere that tells you what to do. When in doubt, don't put it in the dryer, hang it on a clothesline or over something solid to air-dry.

Answer 4

unless you enjoy sleeping with a wet comforter. but yeah, if you are unsure put it on a medium temp (if possible) and then dry it about 80% and then lay it out to dry.

personally, i'd put it in the dryer and cook it, but that's just me.

Answer 5

Nancy has a good idea and it you don't have any tennis balls then an old tennis shoe or two...I dry mine but I do check on it often to shake it out and get all the parts esp. the middle dry.

Answer 6

I have a friend who woks in a dry cleaning shop. The tennis ball trick mentioned earlier is what they do to "fluff" comforters as they are drying. She said to be sure you use clean, new tennis balls only.

Good luck.

Answer 7

you can dry it but periodically you need to open the blanket up because it will twirl in a big ball when drying and be wet in the middle.

Answer 8

yes you can. however, i usually take my comforter to the dry cleaners. mostly because i'm afraid that it won't get as clean at home, and because it's down.

Answer 9

hang it out if weather is good, otherwise tumble dry, no heat
might shrink
