can i was my sheets and comforter together at the same time?

Question

how do i do it?

Answer 1

I would wash them separately. this way there sure to get clean!

Answer 2

Well you can wash anything that is washer safe, but you will always want to read the manufacturer's instructions (found on the tag) for proper water temp, detergent, drying levels, etc. If both items can be washed under the same conditions then you should be able to wash the items together. On a further note you will need to observe to other precautions. The first deals with weight load. If your washing machine has a smaller drum in it then you will probably want to forego with washing the items together as an unbalanced, heavy load can lead to a damaged transmission! Even if the drum is large enough to hold both items, be sure that you have the load properly balanced in the drum to prevent knocking during the spin-cycle. Finally, you will want to make sure that the items have been color-fasted so that you don't have colors bleeding and staining during the wash cycle. I know that comforters can cost a bit of money, and it would be unfortunate to have to replace one, because it was stained during a wash cycle. Good luck to you!

Answer 3

You should go to a laundry mat that has the large capcity washer and dryers. Wash them together, but dry the separately. The sheet wont take much time, but the comforter will. Once in the dryer a while, take the comforter out to turn it around and get the wet areas on the outside.

Answer 4

There shouldn't be any problems in doing that, but I always washed my comforter by itself due to the fact it is so heavy and big and to me, it just seemed that the sheets would not get as clean as I personally, would like them to be. But sheets and comforters are generally made of the same material. And as far as doing it, before I got my own front load washer, I would always go to the laundry mat to use their front load washers. You will be lucky if a regular washing machine would even get the whole comforter wet during the whole cycle of the washing, therefore, it won't be clean and the whole process a waste of your time.

Answer 5

You can if your washer is big enough. For a standard household washer I would wash the sheets together and the comforter in a separate cycle. . . if you overload you strain your machine and don't get enough water in the machine to really clean. . . . if you go to the laundromat and use one of those big machines, toss them all in together providing they are the same or similar color. . .

Answer 6

I wash my sheets & pillow cases in one load, then I wash the comforter alone in the next load. You don't want to overload the washer, & at the same time, you want the bedding to get cleaned well.

Answer 7

Depends on what size sheets & comforter you have and aso what your washer capacity is. If it's a twin size & you have a "normal" capacity washer you could wash them together. If you have a smaller washer, like a space saver or apartment size one, I would do the them separatly. If the comforter is bigger, full or larger, I would wash it separatly. Its better to give it more room to agitate in the washer & will take less drying time if you do them apart.

Answer 8

i was my sheets, pillow cases and fitted sheet speperate from my comforter. Is it a down comforter (had feathers) if so when u dry it put like 2 tennis balls in the dryer so it gets fluffy and nice when it dries.

Answer 9

Not unless the tags offer the same instructions. The comforter may also be dry clean only.

Answer 10

probably not if you're machine is big enough. i usually wash the comforter alone just because it's so huge i can't fit anything else in with it.
if you're machine is big enough just set them in gently and wrap them around the center. don't ball them up because this causes bad washing and an unstable machine that will rock back and forth during the spin cycle.
