I have a down-alternative comforter that I have used with a duvet cover for about 4 years. I’ve had it professionally cleaned once, and have washed it once or twice in a commercial laundromat. It seems like it’s flatter and that the “puffiness” is gone. What is the typical life-expectancy of a down alternative comforter? Thanks!

    About every 3 years. The feathers will start to poke through and it will lose its puffiness

    I’ve had mine for 5 years, and I wash it about every 6 months. Mine is as it was when I bought it. Maybe all you need to do is spend a little more money and buy a better quality one. Mine is a Land’s End.
