Lumpy pillow

Post by Jemima Copping »

I washed both of my ultradown pillows from Out of Eden and dried them in the tumble drier, following instructions on the label. One has turned ot fine, but the other got all lumpy. Does anyone know if you can de-lump a pillow like this? :?

Did you dry it with tennis balls in the dryer? The balls keep the down from clumping.

Yes Linda I dried with spiky blue balls in the machine.

Sadly I think the only cure for a lumpy pillow is likely to be the bin :(

Might be worth a chat with Out of Eden. We've found them very good at putting problems right; I think they value their customers and their reputation.

+1
The pillow plus three clean tennis balls in the tumble dryer will do the trick. I can almost guarantee it. OH did my really bedraggled puffa jacket that way and I couldn't believe the result. I don't think spiky blue balls are the same thing.
