Is there a good way to keep a white comforter from becoming yellowed?

“Depends”, otherwise use the bathroom.

Perhaps try getting a comforter that goes inside a cover – that way, if the cover becomes stained, you don’t have to get rid of the comforter, too.

For the dingy comforter – have you tried bleach?

RyanJCanada – no I haven’t used bleach. Someone else suggested oxiclean so I might try that.

Do not urinate on the blankets!

Sigh…. I knew everyone was just gonna make jokes about urine. : /

Either that, or accusing you of chain-smoking Cuban cigars in bed.

Bleach; use as directed. Use color-safe bleach if the thought of “bleaching” makes you nervous.

If you want to stay away from bleach (so your comforter lasts longer) hang it out in the sun for a few hours a week during the summer. The sun will naturally bleach it for you, and not only that it will air it out and keep it fresh. (Unless you live by a freeway then I guess it would just fill with exhaust).

If you really want to keep it white and spotless, keep it in a plastic bag in the closet, that is the only way I can keep anything white!!! I have a beautiful white on white shirt that I love but am afraid to wear, hehehee!!!

Spraypaint it white.

lurve to eidinad for bearing with stupid, unhelpful answers. grow up, guys.

pee before bedtime. otherwise have you tried a little bleach in the washer?

Please don’t bleach your white fabrics – bleach yellows whites.

Try washing it with a bluing agent (like this one: http://www.amazon.com/Mrs-Stewarts-Bluing-8oz/dp/B000PB5ZQ8 )to counter-act the yellow. In the future, I’d wash it in hot water with oxyclean and a detergent that has “optical brightener” (I think Tide has it – it should be listed on the package somewhere). That should keep your fabrics really clean without causing that yellowing.
