Remove any duvet or comforter covers and expose the comforter to Sun & Air every two months for one hour on each side. Doing this every time you wash your duvet or comforter covers makes it easy to remember: As the covers wash and dry just expose the comforter itself to sun and air.
Comforter may also be vacuumed carefully using a wand (not a vacuum brush or upright used on floors).
We do not recommend placing comforters in a dryer even with no heat or on air fluff only. While this is useful for pillows it is not recommended for comforters. Please use mother nature's air and sun only for regular refreshment.
Stains/odors may be spot cleaned using a solution of 1:3 parts distilled white vinegar and water. Spray the vinegar/water solution on the stain and expose to direct sunlight. Allow to dry. It may require a few applications until the stain fades and/or odor dissipates. You may also use a non-toxic spot cleaner or odor remover as directed. Be sure the product dries completely.
Do not dry clean.
Approcimately one-third of the comforter height will compact over time. This is considered normal. Comforter outer fabric is organic cotton and some variation in color is normal.
You might imagine that down is the ideal filling for a comforter. Yet studies have concluded that sleepers with wool-filled comforters have lower heart rates and humidity next to the skin with no dust mites or allergens that you find in down and no harm to the animals providing the comfort.

Filled with PureGrow wool fleece and covered in 100% Organic Cotton. PureGrow Wool, is the premium Organic wool we've carried for over 23 years. This wool goes beyond "organic" standards and is 100% American from free-range "happy sheep" ranched in Northern California, Oregon and Washington. They are raised in outstanding natural conditions under strict organic and PureGrow Wool standards.
While others may claim to be 100% Natural or Organic, they often do not use PureGrow wool and there is a world of difference: Most wool, whether "organic" or not, is put through a harsh chemical cleaning process called "carbonization". PureGrow wool is not carbonized. The long staple Organic Cotton is grown in California & Texas and meets the highest organic standards available.
And because Earthsake sources local organic ingredients and our bedding is hand-made in small productions right here in California - we have one of the lowest carbon footprints in the industry. Made in the USA with local organic ingredients to support local farmers & small manufacturers that still make things by hand.
