Some duvets can be washed either by hand or in a washing machine (on the handwash or gentle cycle), while others are strictly dry clean. One of the reasons for this is that a dry clean only duvet can shrink if not cleaned properly and could also possibly snag in the washer/dryer, causing the duvet to tear.
The Fieldcrest Luxury duvet can be machine washed, but must be air dried.
Any second hand duvet set should be relatively affordable. These can be found at a local second hand store or on sites such as eBay or Kijiji. An alternative for crafty individuals would be to sew their own duvet cover.
Unfortunately, you can't wash duvets at home. You'll have to get them cleaned at a dry cleaner, or take them to a laundromat with a bedding washer.
Duvet covers protect your duvet from dirt, stains and spills, and owning one of these covers is almost a necessity if you own a duvet. Duvets are not always machine washable, and even the duvets that are machine washable are heavy and burdensome to wash on a regular basis. Many keep their duvets in machine washable duvet covers. You can find duvet covers in beautiful styles, colors and patterns that match the decor of your master bedroom, and these lovely duvet covers are sure to keep your duvet in mint condition for many years.
I don't wash my douvet. I put it in the dryer in a Dryel bag and clean it that way. Mine is Down. With Down Alternative, you should be able to wash it in cold water in your washer. Then partially dry it on "air", then hang it to dry the rest of the way. Do not do this with Feather comforters.

A duvet cover is used as an envelope to hold a duvet. To insert the duvet into the duvet cover, first spread the duvet cover flat over the bed. Open the bottom of the duvet cover. Find the top of the duvet and grab hold of the two top corners. The tricky part is sliding the duvet into the duvet cover. As best you can, while continuing to hold tight to the duvet corners, work the duvet up to the top of the duvet cover. Place one corner of the duvet into the corresponding corner of the duvet cover. Hold tightly onto that corner from the outside. Next, do the same at the other top corner. Hold tight to both corners and pull them up to the top of the bed. Make sure the middle top side of the duvet also lines up with the middle top side of the duvet cover. Now, as best you can, slide the duvet cover down over top of the duvet. Both the duvet cover and duvet will likely be bunched up, but keep gently working it down. It is a bit tricky. The goal is to get the bottom two corners of the duvet aligned into the bottom corners of the duvet cover. When the duvet and cover are mostly aligned, give the covered duvet a good shake to even out the contents. When you are happy with the duvet distribution, do up the bottom of the duvet cover. Now, snuggle up.
Duvet is another word for comforter. A duvet cover is like a big, big pillowcase into which you insert your comforter (or duvet). Like a pillowcase, the duvet cover keeps the duvet clean longer.
The easiest way to get a duvet inside the cover is the following... Turn the duvet cover inside out....then put your arms inside and pinch the bottom corners with your fingers...then pick up the corners of the duvet or comforter and pinch all the corners together with your fingers.... pull the corners inside the duvet cover by pulling the duvet at the same time you are flipping the duvet cover over your arms and over the duvet!! You will have to tuck in the top corners of the duvet inside the duvet cover at the top...then button it up and you are done!
