As we move towards Winter and the temperature starts to drop, the washing pile can suddenly feel like an extra daily challenge. Between the daily school activities, sniffly noses and bugs making their rounds, and darker evenings drawing in before we’ve even finished dinner, waiting for bedding and towels to dry can be a real juggling act. And when you’re washing bedwetting sheets regularly, you need bedding that’s not only easy to care for but ready to use again quickly.
That’s where Hygge Sheets® make life a little easier. Our waterproof bed sheets are designed to dry quickly, whatever the season. Thanks to five breathable layers, they stay fully waterproof and super-absorbent, yet still dry much faster than bulky alternatives. No matter how many wash cycles you go through, you can count on them to feel soft, comfortable and reliable for your little one.
Of course, even the quickest-drying bedding can take a little longer in winter; the constant rain, damp air and cooler temperatures can make washing a much slower task. But you don’t have to spend chilly evenings waiting anxiously next to the dryer or hoping the airer will work fast enough before bedtime. With the right approach, drying your waterproof sheets during winter can be simple and stress-free.
So whether you prefer a quick tumble dry, a gentle eco-friendly air dry, or a bit of both, here are our best tips to help you keep nights cosy, beds protected and washing piles under control even during the coldest months of the year.
The Quick-Dry Option
If you need your waterproof bedsheet ASAP, simply pop it in the tumble dryer on low heat. Because of its breathable layered design, it dries quickly without overheating or damaging the waterproof layer. They can be used all over the house, for snacks on the sofa, under the potty and of course on the bed, you’ll have a clean sheet ready in no time.
Eco-Friendly Drying Options
If you prefer to save energy or don’t have a dryer, winter drying is still doable. Try one of these simple cold-weather methods:
-
Hang outside on crisp, sunny days for fresh-air drying
-
Dry indoors on a clothes airer
-
Lay it over a radiator on low heat
No matter which method you choose, the key is gentle heat and good airflow.
Why It’s Important to Dry Your Sheet Fully
It can be tempting to pop the sheet straight back on the bed as soon as it feels dry, especially when rushing around. But for best comfort and longevity, always ensure it’s completely dry before reuse. This keeps the fabric breathable, comfy, and smelling fresh, and helps maintain its waterproof protection.
Winter Tip: Keep a Spare
Lots of families tell us that having a spare Hygge Sheet® makes winter nights much easier. While one is drying, the other is ready on the bed, no scrambling before bedtime.
"Wish we had bought them sooner - We swapped from disposable mats to these reusable ones. They are brilliant. They fit the bed much better, are much softer, and are much more dignified for our daughter. They absorb the urine and are easy to wash. We bought the double pack (slight discount when buying 2) so that we always had a spare one to use if there were any accidents."
Washing & Care Recap
To keep your Hygge Sheet® performing at its best:
-
Machine wash at a maximum of 40°C
-
No bleach or fabric conditioner these can damage the waterproof layer
-
