Patio furniture

Do you all wash the covers from the patio furniture cushions before putting them away for the year ?
Mine look very grubby but they all
Have a label saying 'Do not wash'
They are polyester so I'd think they could withstand a quick 30 deg wash. What do you think?
They need more than sponging down ( & I can be bothered to do that anyway !)

I'd go for it - my sofa cushions had 'no wash' labels but (in the era of a small child and dogs) regularly went through a wool wash.

Thanks. I did stick them on a delicate wash. Sure they will be fine.

If anything gets to the stage of grubbiness that the only alternative is to dispose of it, you don’t lose anything by trying a wash
