Do I need to wash the comforter after every stay?

[Bethany27]

Hi all, we've been hosting for almost 3 years now. We usually get one-night bookings back-to-back, and we have always washed our comforter after each guest's stay. However, the frequent washing has destroyed most of our comforters. I recently got a duvet insert & cover so that we can wash the cover frequently without ruining the blanket, but putting the cover on and taking it off each time is getting to be quite annoying. I read that hotels don't wash their comforters often at all, and I'm wondering what other hosts do in this regard. Thanks in advance!

Yes, I use 3 duvet covers/sheet sets per bed. You don’t have to wash immediately and you can give folks a clean duvet cover  every stay.

 Not true, most people like a top sheet!

We use microban disinfectant spray for our comforters unless they show stains or it's been a longer rental. Then I wash all the comforters after about every 3 bookings
