Tips for washing your Doona's
As we have fabulous BIG FAST *express* Dexter frontloaders....and the chilly months are ahead of us. It is a perfect time to wash and freshen up the winter warmers and bedding.
We recommend: you can wash a Double, Queen or King Doona, King/Queen blankets or thick underlays/mattress protectors in the Triple Load Frontloaders. You can fit a Single or 'thin' double/queen in the Double Load Frontloaders.
Use our FREE eco laundry liquid, which is suitable for sensitive skin, it's earth friendly and Australian made and owned. It gives great results and you only need 1 capful. Remember "less is more" for best results with laundry detergent.
It is best if you wash Doona's on their own and not mixed with other clothing or towels. Depending on the fillings of your Doona a warm wash is recommended. Once the water soaks through they will condense and wash brilliantly in the *express* Dexters. Note - do not use to much detergent, less is more - for better results in these super fast spinning *express* Dexter frontloaders.
~Always check your doona instructions as to what temperature to set the wash, and if they can be placed in dryers~
Once in the Dryers start on a low temp and check it after a few minutes. If the outer covering is silky or shiny you may need to remove it after 8 minutes to make sure it does not overheat and 'pinch' the material. Cotton covers should be started on LOW heat and checked, if okay you can then test on Medium heat. You can stop our Dryers, check, close the door press the START button.
Hope this helps you get the best results for your winter warmers.
NOTE: **Please do NOT try to cram doona's or big bulky blankets, mattress protectors in to the Top Loaders!! They will not fit in properly, if they stick up above the agitator they will not get covered in water or wash through and you will end up with a doona full of detergent. :/
