Yes, me and the washing machine saga again.
Went to look at washers in John Lewis this evening.
Said I wanted one with large aperture, to make it easier to get my duvet in. Got quite a lecture from the salesman about not laundering duvets. WTF?
I often wash my summer duvet, big blankets, throws etc, used to wash the kids duvets, too, cos, well, kids!
DH and I were 
as I've only been doing laundry for 40 years.
When we left the shop dh said 'You've got to tell your mumsthing people about this'
