Pillows can become stained and yellowed over time due to sweat, oils, dust, and dirt. Don’t worry though, washing your pillows in the washing machine is an easy and effective way to get them back to their pristine, snow-white appearance. In this step-by-step guide, we will show you how to wash your pillows and keep them looking brand new.
Step-by-Step Guide to Washing Pillows:
1. Check the Care Label
Always start by checking the care label on your pillow to ensure it is machine washable. Most synthetic, down, and feather pillows are safe for the washing machine. However, memory foam pillows should not be machine-washed and can be spot-cleaned instead.
2. Remove Pillowcase and Protector
Take off any pillowcases or pillow protectors and wash them separately according to their care instructions.
3. Balance the Load
To ensure a thorough clean and avoid lumps, wash two pillows at a time. This will help keep the washing machine balanced during the spin cycle.
4. Select the Right Detergent
Choose a mild liquid detergent for washing your pillows. Powder detergents may leave residues inside the pillow, so it’s best to avoid them. Be careful not to use too much detergent, as it can be difficult to rinse out completely.
