You can just wipe it clean with a clean damp cloth and let dry. Polyester is easy to maintain. Hope that helps you.

I would put it in the machine with woolite on the gentle, cold water cycle. Unless the handles are leather.

spray first... spot clean... since the handles are most likely PVC, it might be OK to put it in the washing machine.. in one of those bags you use for your delicates, and on the delicate cycle.. of course, do not dry...

I'm worried that if you put it in the washing machine the fabric might not retain some of its original characteristics? I suggest spot cleaning it as necessary.
