machine wash dry clean only covers

MargeS · 2010-09-25 12:14:45

I have couch cushion covers that are specialist dry clean only; 52% cotton , 48% polyester. Now I know that the care label says 'dry cleaner only' so I don't need that pointed out to me.... I want to know if anyone has ever tried (chanced) machine washing something like this? Would 48% polyester mean that it would shrink…

Would 48% polyester mean that it would shrink on a 30/40 wash?

I wash mine all the time and they are fine. I use the hand wash cycle on my washing machine. Mine are 100% polyester.
