"Maximum heat cycle" ? WRONG! Down pillows should be dried on no higher heat than medium - especially in a small home dryer. It is best to use a large capacity dryer like as found at your local laundromat. Also, only use a cleaning solution especially formulated for cleaning down. Don't use common soap or regular laundry detergent. It will likely be too harsh or leave a residue on the down that prevents it from lofting fully when it is dry. Weigh pillows to confirm complete dryness.

I was wondering if I should clean my pillow or just change the pillow case, I thought it was pretty nasty to use the pillow for years without washing it, but just wasn't sure how they are cleaned.

Hi GimmieURcookie - there is only a few things that could go wrong:

The fabric shrinks due to water tempature Or when dried the pillow did not dry enough and it causes issues. Always be sure to dry extra - at least two cycles - maybe 3.

I have tried to wash my pillows this way, but it didn't turn out very well. Is there any other way I can clean my pillows?

[somestuff2day]

i use my toploader to wash my pillows without any problems and no fabric softener

I think I read that too fast - if it is a down pillow you simply do the same thing and give it some chops - you won't hurt the down.

[DownLiteBedding]

Mark - great question - if its a down comforter - you simply need to give a little karate chop where it clumps. You can also chop on the bed to shift the fill evenly in the square on thed bed. Only cheaper polyester tends to ball up and become harder to spread smooth.

[mark40511]

Yeah, but how do you keep the filling inside from balling up?

I like this downlite video. I have a lot of Down Pillows at my house and have always wondered if it was OK to clean them.

Now if only I could wash my oversized down comforter without needing a neighbor to help. lol
