Big Mistake trying to wash down comforter...

well, this one was my temporary comforter while my good one is at the dry cleaners..anyway, it said on the tag that I cold wash it in gentle cycle and tumble dry low... well, the freakin thing is soooo filled with water even after the spin cycle. I don't know what I am going to do with this thing now... UGH.... any suggestions? My washer and dryer are commercial quality, but I guess it was not "commercial" enough..Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

When I was mine, I put it through the spin cycle at least 2 times, sometimes 3.
Than dry it for about 45 mins.

I do the same thing. I also add tennis balls in the dryer to fluff out the feathers.

also throw in a tennis ball in the dryer to keep the down fluffy and moving around so it doesn't get all lumpy

I have commercial dryers downstairs and still have to dry my down comforter for almost 2 hours for it to be fully dry. Add a tennis ball in there too to keep it fluffly
