Is this pillow easy to wash/dry? I am thinking of getting it for my toddler, but want to make sure I can wash it easliy at home whenever needed.

I have washed one of these pillows once - I simply soaked it in cold water an Woolite. Then put it on a towel and gently press the water out - didn't squeeze or wring. I air dried in the sun, gently fluffing occasionally and it came out very nicely. For a baby, you might think about a water resistant case to cut down on washings.

Order a couple of pillow protectors or pillow cases from them and wash these; They are inexpensive and then you never need to wash the pillow.I have done this with my duvet down comforter covers from Austria for many years and never have had to have the comforters cleaned.

I have not washed my pillow yet but I love my pillow. I got the medium fill because I don't like a thick pillow. If I were you I would call the seller and he should be able to answer that for you.

Check manufacturer's recommendations as it is labeled to send down items to a professional cleaner. I have not washed this pillow (yet) although I have laundered many other down pillows (bed and throw). Down items tend to float in a top loader - front loader no problem - there has to be sufficient water which can be a problem with front loaders. Dry on low heat and it will take a while.

I love this pillow for travelling: small, very soft and easy to pack. It is filled with goose down and I understand you are not supposed to wash down frequently. Therefore, I am not sure this is what you are looking for.

I would refer to the manufacturer's website, but I don't think toddlers should have down at all....Polyfill is a better option and totally machine washable. My 2¢.

I've used the washer and dryer. It's not as soft as it was but I think that was probably inevitable. Nowadays I can't pull it away from my daughter long enough for a full wash cycle so I just give it a quick hand wash with a tiny bit of all free and clear, rinse well, ring it out- and give it back a little damp. It air dries fast.

It is very easy to wash. Just take it apart and stick only the material in the wash. I wash it and hang dry only, I have never tried sticking it in dryer.

No. I wash the pillow the washer on regular and in the dryer on medium heat once a week and so far it is still fine. There is a pillowcase but it is just as expensive as the pillow so I did not get it. When I got the pillow it was smaller than I thought but it really does work great.

I haven't washed mine yet but I think my daughter washed hers. If you follow the directions and let it air dry, I think you will be OK. If I decide I need to wash mine, I'll repost to let you know.

It's a regular size pillow. Depending on your head size, it should be ok. The side are not really firm. The pillow will probably be too big for a child. Hope this helps

Actually, you can wash it. Just wash it with some mild soap. rinse, let it air dry really really dry and then to get it back to the way it was, dust it wit talcum powder. over the trash and shake. If you have a kid that may lick or suck it, I would try it with cornstarch, instead.

Well I just measured ours and it's 14" x 10" x 1" which is different than what Brian Campbell just posted and slightly smaller than I posted in my review awhile back (which was 15" x 11.5"). Is it possible they come in different sizes and that maybe ours shrunk a little when I washed it? We've loved ours. It was a great first pillow for my 1-2.5 year old...but now I think she's ready for something bigger.

If used properly there is no need to wash the pillow. It has a waterproof plastic side facing up that you can wipe clean when you remove the cover for washing.

I have machine washed it several times. The only thing was I had to go to the laundry mat to use one of those industrial sized machines, which was kind of a pain because it took SOOOOOOO many quarters! I've also dropped it off at the cleaners and them wash it. I've had the throw pillows dry cleaned once too. Everything comes out lovely!!!

It is actually better after a wash and tumble dry. it is getting softer each time it gets washed. :-)

It is foam filled, so I believe you can just toss it in the wash and dry on low. I will double check the label when I get home and if the instructions say differently, I will respond to this again within 24 hours. I have two pillows and dryed one on low/medium setting to see the difference in fluff. The pillow that was dryed was quite a bit thicker. Thank you.

Hi! I'm sorry I took so long. I was not home. I just checked and YES it can be washed. You have to put it in a white pillow case Put the machine on cold & gentle cycle. Do not put in dryer. I hope this was helpful for you. Have a great weekend �

I agree, I don't think you can wash the pillow. I would suggest contacting the seller!

Sorry for the delayed response. This pillow is machine wash and dry, though I haven't done if yet. I just keep it in a waterproof case.
