Automatic Washer - The world's coolest Washing Machines, Dryers and Dishwashers

My '97 KM with Triple Action agitator makes easy work of my comforters, but we are talking full size, not queen, and definitely not down-filled.
 
Down Filled Bedding

Down filled bedding presents a unique laundry "problem" in that down and feathers are very water resistant and hold air. This makes getting them wet down so they will compact in a front loader difficult unless there is a large enough cavity in relation to the bedding.

When watching down items in tripe and double commercial washers, one notices there is air trapped in the covering, but the down itself is wet. This probably occurs because commercial units fill all at once in one direction with a good amount of water to wet things down. Today's super water efficient front loaders may have large drums but are kind of cheap with water.
