Is it Difficult to Wash Down Pillows?

Down pillows are balmy soft and superbly cushioned that is why people are curious how difficult it might be to wash pillows filled with eider feathers. The first thing to do is to check the care label if the pillow you chose is machine washable. Then ensure that there are no snags or splits and the ticking is secure. Then follow simple washing steps.

Down Matress Topper

Wash with mild detergent on warm water or gentle setting. If your washing machine is a top loader one, wash two pillows at a time to balance things out of your washer and also to prevent them from floating. The agitator will pull them downward at the center and then outward and up the sides of the basket. Use the delicate cycle or low spin setting on your machine to prevent the aggressive action of the agitator from damaging the pillows.

After the wash cycle is complete, rinse the pillows twice on a slow setting to get rid of any detergent left on the pillows and then spin two additional times again in low setting to free them from excess water without breaking the feathers.

Dry the pillows on a low heat setting. It may take four to six hours to dry pillows with internal chambers. Remove the pillows and hand fluffs them between cycles. Even when they feel dry to the touch, pillows may still be damp inside. Continue to dry until they are clear from lumps or clamps of fill for these indicate dampness. See to it that there is no moisture left in the pillows. The air fluff setting in the dryer can help fluff the pillow between washing. For extra fluff and fresh smell include a couple of clean tennis balls and a fabric softener sheet.

For extra care, after washing and pillows are not in use, store them in breathable bags. Plastic bags trap moisture in and may cause the pillow to decompose. When in use, pillows should be covered with pillow protectors aside from the regular decorative pillowcases. These provide additional layer between the pillow and pillowcases. Protectors often have zipper closure.

It may be cumbersome but it is worth the trouble to have fresh clean fluffy pillows for your weary head to lie. It only takes a little of gentleness and patience to make them more useful and lasting. Treat them not just any useful thing but more of a sleeping companion, a bedmate and a support.
