Cleaning Ektorp Blekinge White Slip Covers

I have always struggled with cleaning my Ektorp Blekinge Slip Covers, so I decided to experiment.  I have always washed all of my slipcovers, which consist of two couches and two Ektorp chairs, which consists of the Jennylund and the armchair. 

I take all of the covers off and go to a nearby Laundromat where they have 75lbs washing machines and I put all of the slipcovers in at once.  I put the cycle on heavy and I use hot water and for my detergents, I use oxyclean, arm and hammer and borax for an extra boost to my detergent.

What I have found is that you can machine dry your slipcovers instead of having them air dry and it really doesn't result in any shrinkage.
