Impeller vs Agitator
pretty much the same way as you would a duvet.... depends on the filling, but if the decoration is very fancy, you're pretty screwed. So generally not very often. in my experience, people do tend to put sheets between themselves and the comforter. All Hail The (non-feather) Duvet. IMO.
