How to clean pillows: Can you wash pillows in the washing machine?

Can you wash pillows in the washing machine?

Most cotton, down and synthetic pillows can be washed in the washing machine, but make sure you check the instructions on the care label before you try this!

Persil’s site adds: “If you do machine wash pillows, ensure that the machine is large enough.

“Take care that the fabric case is robust and will not allow the filling to come loose, causing potentially serious damage to the machine.

“Foam pillows should not be put in the washing machine. The washing instructions on foam pillows may state you can hand wash them.”

If you decide to hand wash them, be gentle!
