If you have a down comforter, it’s important to clean it regularly to keep it looking and smelling fresh. Down is a natural fiber, so it can absorb moisture and start to smell musty. Here are four easy steps to cleaning your down comforter:

  1. Remove the comforter from the bed.
  2. Wash the comforter in warm water with a mild detergent. Don’t use fabric softener or bleach, as these chemicals could damage the down feathers.
  3. Dry the comforter on low heat or hang it on a line to air-dry completely.
  4. If necessary, spot clean any areas that seem dirty or stained. Use a mild soap and water solution, and dry quickly with a towel. ..
