How often should you wash your duvet?

Wash your duvet every 6 months, so twice a year. If you use it without a cover, wash it every 2 to 3 months.

You wash the duvet cover weekly, but the duvet itself also absorbs sweat and dust mites. Two washes a year keep it fresh. Many duvets do not fit in a standard washing machine; use a launderette or dry cleaner instead.

  1. Read the duvet’s care label
  2. Check whether it fits your drum; otherwise use a launderette
  3. Wash at the stated temperature with little detergent
  4. Dry it completely, possibly with dryer balls in the tumble dryer
