WHY WASH YOUR DOONA?
Most people are quite diligent when it comes to washing their sheets once a week and airing their mattress, but how often are you washing your Doona?
The humble Doona is a breeding ground for dust mites and bacteria, as well as collecting sweat and skin cells from us in our sleep.
Considering we spend up to 35 % of our lives in bed, that’s a whole lot of organic matter!
A Doona that hasn’t been washed for a year it is likely to be home to more than 20,000 dust mites!
There are a few schools of thought when it comes to how regularly you should be cleaning your Doona. The general consensus is that Doonas should be washed every two to three months, or at least twice a year.
Synthetic fibre Doonas should be washed in a large machine on a normal spin cycle at 60°C (This is the Hot setting on our Machines), or as high as the care label suggests.
Dry in the tumble dryer, or in direct sunlight outside.
*Feather and down filled Doonas need to be dry cleaned, check the washing label on your Doona for its suggested clean.
