What's the best way to wash these? Washer and dryer safe or no? No tips on the manufacturer site I can find.

I wash mine in the washer on the "delicate" setting. I then let them air dry at room temperature. ....

From my experience, they are washer safe on most any cycle. I think it is preferred to let them air dry. They won't be damaged in the dryer, but it could shorten their useable life over time.

I have been using these back to back since late July, with several washes in between and that has never happen to me. I wash them with a hot cycle meant for heavy cotton and then rinse a second time. I have never used a dryer on them, that could be why yours are balling up. I just hang dry for a few hours.

You've got me there, Steve. I just throw mine in the washer with regular detergent then into the dryer with fabric softener sheets. They come out fine. If you have more than one pad, why don't you try the S20 Laundry Detergent sheets (I have never heard of these sheets) on it an see what happens. One thinkg you might do is change the speed of the washing machine. I tend to wash mine on a gentler cycle the first few times just to see how they do. If I have been of no help (which won't be a surprise to me), try emailing the manufacturer and asking them. Personally, I think you are safe using your sheets but try them on one first...just to be safe. Polly You've got me there, Steve.

I've successfully washed them many times in my dishwasher. I can't speak to the manufacturer's recommendation but I've had no issues doing so.

I have washed them in a washing machine without any problems, but I do put them in a lingerie bag, and I air-dry them. I wouldn't just throw them in the machine. A zipper pillow case works well also.

Very easy I place mine in the washer on a gentle cycle with a little soap and bleach. let air dry and your good to go.

I wash them with the zipper open just so the air flow from the dryer goes through better. I have had them for several months and washed them that way since and they hold up nicely.

wash in washing machine on cold. Don't put in dryer. I have a maroon one and a brown one and wash them together with no problems.

I wash with towels, cold water and bleach. I use dryer balls or dryer sheets. They are holding up really well.

I think if they become dirty you might be able to wash them, but I do not think their intended purpose is to provide fabric softening in a washer. They are balls of wool that bounce around in the dryer to keep the clothes separated. I'm not sure how useful they would be in a washer.

They say hand wash only, and I'm guessing that's best. They're 100% polyester and have pretty cheap (though cute!) details on them that probably wouldn't survive in the washing machine. Definitely no dryer -- they'd melt!

I washed them in the sink and let them air dry. Don't know how they would handle a waher/dryer.

I would not put them in the washing machine. I simply rinse and hand squeeze them out under warm water and lay them on a paper towel to dry overnight. They actually dry long before that and are ready to go.

It is ok to put them into washer but they advice to have them dry outside. But please check their site

I usually wash mine with a load of cleaning rags or small rugs in hot water, no bleach. Do not put in the dryer. I have an HE washer, don't know if that makes a difference, but they come out clean and ready to reuse.

I throw mine in washer with towels & cleaning rags. I dry flat instead of using dryer.

I stopped using them before I needed to wash them. But I'm sure just wash them in a machine then hang dry.
