That's a rather gross way to live (not trying to dunk on you, this is my attempt at raising the level of awareness). I wash my duvet cover every other week. Clean bedding and sheets are one of the simple joys in life.
It isn't much work, great ROI.
- mrj 3y agoSimple, you just wash the whole comforter and live happy and clean without ever having to deal with a duvet. I wish I had done it sooner.
- metadat 3y agoTotally, that works as long as it isn't filled with down feathers. Cheers.
- Symbiote 3y agoWhether this is practical presumably depends on the typical room temperature — a thick/heavy duvet suitable for a cold climate would be inconvenient to wash that regularly.
- mrj 3y agoAh.. yes, true. I live in SoCal. :)
- andrewl 3y agoThere are different ways of setting up a bed with a duvet. In the United States a bed would most commonly have a fitted sheet on the mattress, then a flat sheet on top of the fitted sheet, tucked under the mattress at the foot of the bed. You sleep on top of the fitted sheet and under the flat sheet. The duvet goes on top of the flat sheet, so it basically doesn’t touch anybody in the bed. The other way is to eliminate the flat sheet, and have the duvet inside a regularly-changed cover, because, without the flat sheet, the duvet is in direct contact with the people in the bed.
