I’m a 17 year old boy, I’d like to say I’m pretty hygienic, I shower every day, wash my sheets once a week, but my pillows, I’m not proud of them…I didn’t even know you could wash pillows so for a while I was just sad about how yellow-ey they looked, thank you for this :}
Thank you for watching and wanting to clean your pillows! Man do I wish my college aged son would even wash the sheets. You're way ahead of most 17 year olds and I'm proud of you!!
traditionally, in India, we beat the washed and dried pillows with a stick, placing the pillows on a wooden surface and moving from one edge to the other end, multiple beatings helps to fluff up the pillows. Of course, we are blessed with a lot of sun, and can dry them up real well before the fluffing by beating. Thanks for the tip. another cautionary practice is to put two pillows at one go, so that the machine balances well.
Your way is actually the best method to clean pillows (even clothing), a washing machine tries to mimic this with the agitator but hand wash is best and let it dry out naturally whilst hanging.
I’ve never washed my pillows and now I’m just learning because I feel like I need to. Sounds weird but it’s cool how I’m at that point where watching something like this actually helps a lot and is appreciated 🤟🏽
@@doratiscareno5856 I only change my cases daily😂 only now I know this. Maybe because my family never washing the pillow so I didn't know I needed to do😢
I just now decided to try and wash my pillows since I'm bored at home and I used to only wash the fabric cases for them, admittedly I never knew you could put them in the wash without damaging the machine. Looking forward to clean smelling ones tonight. ☺️
@@CleanFreakGermaphobe Question for drying the pillows via dryer. how many cycles should I do? since it’s obviously not gonna be dry on the first try with low temperature on.
THAT PART! I have the same washer and dryer, too, so it was very easy to choose the settings and let 'er rip! LOL My first pillow didn't come out blazing white, but it looks A LOT better than it did previously. Thank you!
I've come back to this video a few times already. My pillows come so clean! Like new. My pregnancy hormones are SO wild. Even with 2 pillow protectors under my pillowcase it smells greasy like my hair after a month or 2. Lol thanks!
Commenting because of the storage kitty in the background at 6:58. 😊 I'm surprised by how many people didn't know they can wash their pillows. I'm doing a wash of all pillows in our house and putting them in pillow protectors because my husband likes tossing them when he says any tiny stain.
Teddy likes to sneak into as many videos as possible. If I open something I have to hide the box because he’s going to get inside and make noise. I have to restart my filming. Yes, pillow protectors are an underappreciated way to prevent pillow stains!
Just imagine how clean your wash would be if you had a washer with an agitator! These washers with the castrated agitator is completely worthless from my experience. Thanks for sharing your tips!
@@a.d.723 Most agitator washers have different cycles so you shouldn't have to worry anoud the agitator destroying your pillow or your pillow ruining your washer. Keep in mind in the wash cycle, there is also water in the tank so the agitator will not beat up your pillow too much. Try gentle cycle or regular cycle if heavy duty cycle is too much for your pillows.
Yeah I was skeptical of the washer with no agitator too but I bit the bullet and purchased one, it does a better job for doing pillows. I have always washed pillows and sometimes had to go to the laundromat to use the front load washers that also have no agitator.. these new washers are just front loaders turned upright..
I have washed a sleeping bag in a washing machine with a agitator and it ripped it pretty badly on the bedding setting. Polyfill all through my laundry room when I pulled out the fabric. I still occasionally find a little fluff in weird corners from that. But at least I'm glad I did my cheap sleeping bag first as a test before putting in any other beddings. Long story short I wouldn't trust agitator washing machines with a pillow.
My washing machine repairman told me to run a wash of vinagar & baking soda once a month to clean out the parts of your machine u can’t clean that ends up leaving smells. You can buy a tablet also. But that’s basically what’s in it. Same as w/ your dishwasher.
hi! chem student here. u should use either baking soda or vinegar, but not both at the same time. baking soda is acidic, and vinegar is basic, so when u mixed up it basically just forms water plus some residuals cause they neutralize each other. They act much better seppartly c:
Laundrymats have the best washers for washing pillows and massive bedding, but last time I used one cuz my washer died, I found a bedbug on my comforter😬 Thankfully I found it and took action and didnt get infested.
I think that's great! Im old and lazy do i just go buy new ones that have lots of life. I will continue to watch you channel as you really help me with some wonderfully simplistic "fixes' Blessings.
'FOLEX' CLOTHES AND CARPET CLEANER will get ANYTHING out! Lipstick, grease, tomato sauce, ink, blood, wine (even works on blonde furniture)...Pick it up at lowes / home depot in cleaning supplies area....

Thank you for the tutorial. I really needed to do that. Thanks. I don't know about Coop. But I have , My Pillow. Very comfortable. I'm a lil worried about how it's gonna come out afterwards. Still in all, thanks 😊. My cat had babies and we use pillows for thier nest or whatever. So yeah. This is definitely handy tips
I attempted to wash my pillows in the past in my front loader and my washer stopped, maybe because the pillows got so heavy? Is it better to wash them in a top loader washing machine?
How much cleaning spray do you have to use? I have an awesome laundry stain remover that I love, instead of Oxy Clean. Is that okay? Do I need to soak the whole pillow in the stain remover/fighter?
If it's for laundry then i would say you should be able to use it on the pillow as for the amount of product id say just spray it on medium don't drench it in whatever you use just spray back and fourth kind of the way you would use a fabric freshener maybe do 2 passes on both sides check on google to double check if the product you want to use will work also some products have the info on the label and list all the different uses. Hope this helps
question, after washing 2 pillows and the spin cycle started it sounded like space x launching a rocket in my laundry room and the machine started coming alive. i did two to provide counter balance during the spin but it didnt help.. its a top load washer. any ideas, tips?
You may never get a reply. I have the same problem. Maybe replace the pillow and get a high quality cover so the pillow can be used without washing for a long time. Also what I thought of...next time I wash pillows I'll stop just before the spin, put my pillow in the clean bathtub and force as much of that heavy water out manually before I put the pillow/pillows back in the wash to spin.
You just need to rearrange the pillows to get the machine back in balance. I NEVER wash 1 by itself - that always causes my washer to be off balance during the spin cycle. I also have the problem when doing rugs - I just stop it and redistribute the weight evenly around the tub.
I do like the video though and I’m going to try. Thank you for the video. I might check out those pillows you recommend at the end of the video if my pillows don’t come clean. Thank you again. 😎
Should I remove the agitator on a top loaded machine when washing pillows as mine is removable & should I wash one at a time or 2 as when it goes into the spin cycle it may rumble & you have to abort.
I think it's better to cut it open remove the fluff and then wash the cloth. Stich the pillow with the chain mechanism so that it will be easier next time
Thank you for the video. Could you please tell me what brand is that pillow protector pillow case. I need one desperately. Waiting for you answer. Thank you in advance
You can either poke holes in it so you can get the air to escape, or use something to weight it down. Lysol laundry sanitizer actually weights down pillows and comforters. I'm not sure why, but when I use it it help, when I don't, it floats. Or you can just use your muscles and beat it in lol. I've done all of these, they all work. Just be careful if you're cutting holes, you have to do it in the right place so it doesn't further rip open.
I soaked mine overnight in a bucket weighted down with a dumbbell after my cat peed on it. I didn't have any floating problems since it was already waterfilled when I threw it in the wash. So you could do that.
I don’t have your sophisticated settings on either washer or dryer. A bit tricky to translate to an older machine! Still helpful information aside from multiple settings you have!
Washing might/probably ruin the waterproofing. I washed my mattress cover and ruined the waterproofing which was supposed to protect from spills, bedwetting, etc.
So I have the older model washing machine I think because it only goes up to high spin. However I am curious why warm instead of hot? I know technically hot is harsher on fabrics but I use hot on all my bedding because I’m so paranoid 😂 also, no pre soak? I can imagine that making the pillows super heavy and that makes my washer uneven but I just want to make sure I’m washing them the best possible way lol I have at least 20 pillows I need to wash today 🤣
What if I don’t have the tag and don’t know if I can’t can wash it in my wash machine, I did put a pillow in my moms front loader and I think it was on delicate, it tore up my pillow, I thought many years ago I did wash a pillow, I gave a Maytag washer it’s top loader and has the thing in the middle, I put my pillow in there with water but got nervous so I did a search, saw your post here, I like this pillow because it’s seems more better then the new pillows I just bought my children Any suggestions
Hi, do you know the brand name of your pillow? If so you can reach out to them or check their website for care instructions. But otherwise, you can do this method by hand, ideally you have a vacuum (much better) th-cam.com/video/N1PnYe_NB5c/w-d-xo.html Then use a waterproof pillow protector to extend the life of your pillow. I know they can be loved, so I think it's worth the extra money to help them last longer. Our favorite pillow protector is from Coop - www.cleanfreakandgermaphobe.com/coop because it's soft and doesn't make any sound, plus it's like their mattress protector which we've tested (same material) and use ourselves. It works really well.
I just have one problem, whenever I put in my pillows the water that the pillow absorbs makes it super heavy and makes my washing machine tumble all around the place and makes me scared it going to break it, I've tried counter balancing it with another pillow on the opposite side but it ends up worse, what do i do?
Thanks... When a pillow gets old and flat or dirty, I try wash in cold water with about 5 extra rinses (need to resent machine to do so), but worth it. Dry in dryer with as many dryer balls as you have (I have 5). sometimes it works great. Sometimes it does not. Thats ok because without a wash attempt the pillow is landfill anyway, lol! So worth a try. Now I use mite, allergy, waterproof, high quality so comfortable zip on pillow cases. Dont buy the hype that you have to get new pillows every year... wash the ones you have that still would be good pillows.. and start using zip on pillow protectors going forward. I have an airbnb and this saves me bundles of money on pillow replacement. Now I do the same at home.
Yes, I’m the same! I use a pillow protector. These aren’t my pillows. I’d never let them get that bad. But it gave me a chance to really show what works.
Are those Coop pillows asthma/allergy friendly? Love your channel and now I gotta wash out my pillows! I have 2 cats and Im betting theres tons of cat hair
Thanks for your fabulous comment. Yes, Coop pillows are hypoallergenic. You may want to get a waterproof pillow protector too. Coop has a Black Friday sale on everything right now. www.twomomsreview.com/peepad 15% off with code SWEETDREAMS.
I always replace my pillows every couple of months, but now I have a pregnancy pillow that I’m attempting to wash I’ve only had it a few weeks but my daughter got tons of dust on it 😢
i have never had any luck washing pillows in a top loader without an agitator. the pillow just floats on top of the water for the most part and does not get thoroughly clean. HATE top loading machines with no agitator! dont feel at all like my clothes ever get clean. i wish i could put a heavy weight inside the pillow to weight it down so that it gets underwater and gets clean!
I have a washing machine that has an agitator in it. Could I still wash pillows in it? The last time I did, all the stuffing was to one side and no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't get it back to normal. 🥺
This didn't work for my two gel pillows. It ruined mine in the dryer. Bought the recommended pillow to replace them. I really like the material and how it can be stuffed.

Instead of using oxy clean you can use baking soda and white vinegar . They're more eco friendly and are good for your health.

If your pillow doesnt have a tag and you dont know if you can wash it, can you still wash it in slow settings?
I don’t have your sophisticated settings on either washer or dryer. A bit tricky to translate to an older machine! Still helpful information aside from multiple settings you have!
Hottest water, heavy duty wash, after it's done you can put on rinse cycle again/spin again.
Hello! i have a question, do you recommend doing each pillow one at a time, or can you do multiple at once?
You can do more than one at a time. I don't know how big your washing machine or size of pillow but I would only do 2 at once in mine.
Yeah. New pillow time.
They're emotionally attached so they're keeping it. People love their pillows!
Do you have to use a wool ball in the dryer?
You can use tennis balls or those plastic kind. If you have neither one then you could try to fluff it up when you get it out of the dryer.
Thanks for the pillow info. Very helpful

I have an airbnb and this saves me bundles of money on pillow replacement. Now I do the same at home.
Yes, I’m the same! I use a pillow protector. These aren’t my pillows. I’d never let them get that bad. But it gave me a chance to really show what works.
Also, you can wash more than one pillow at a time.
Can I wash 3 pillows at once in that same washer you have?
If they're not very thick pillows and don't have any foam in them, yes.
6:51 aww your cat
He’s struggling but it’s cute lol
Hello! Is there a reason you wouldn't use bleach, ammonia, or vinegar?
Thank you!
Some people just don't care for sanitizing. Or think that washing something also sanitizes it, which it doesn't. Laundry detergent isn't a sanitizer
What if you don't have a heavy duty programme on your washing machine?
Just use hot water and/or an extra rinse.
Are those Coop pillows asthma/allergy friendly? Love your channel and now I gotta wash out my pillows! I have 2 cats and Im betting theres tons of cat hair
Thanks for your fabulous comment. Yes, Coop pillows are hypoallergenic. You may want to get a waterproof pillow protector too. Coop has a Black Friday sale on everything right now. www.twomomsreview.com/peepad 15% off with code SWEETDREAMS.
Okay but what about this stuffed animal duck platypus thing pillow with eyes. I would look at the tags but the tags are faded out and blank now
I always replace my pillows every couple of months, but now I have a pregnancy pillow that I’m attempting to wash I’ve only had it a few weeks but my daughter got tons of dust on it 😢
You really don't have to get new ones. They wash up so easily, as long as they're washable type pillows (read the tag).
Mine has an agitator and I can't wash pillows in it. I tried and had to stop my machine quickly when it was spinning or the drum would've broken.
what should you do if your pillow is yellow?
i have never had any luck washing pillows in a top loader without an agitator. the pillow just floats on top of the water for the most part and does not get thoroughly clean. HATE top loading machines with no agitator! dont feel at all like my clothes ever get clean. i wish i could put a heavy weight inside the pillow to weight it down so that it gets underwater and gets clean!
I washed a serta pillow and cant get water out of it
How can I do this at a laundromat?
Why do pillows get that color even if you always use pillow cases :x
I could be wrong, but I think it’s your saliva seeping through the pillow sheets and onto the pillow
It is the sweat from the head I guess and saliva too.
@@AnthonyNJBello The oil from your face and hair too.
Is my 7kg washer can wash my pillow? 🥺
Yes it can
can you wash more than one pillow.
Yes, you can wash 2.
I have a washing machine that has an agitator in it. Could I still wash pillows in it? The last time I did, all the stuffing was to one side and no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't get it back to normal. 🥺
I would take it to a laundromat or do our baking soda wash by hand method, instead. th-cam.com/video/N1PnYe_NB5c/w-d-xo.html
@@CleanFreakGermaphobe Thank you! ❤️ I love your washing machine, by the way! 😁❤️
Foam rubber chips disintegrate over time. Dacron filling wads up.
This didn't work for my two gel pillows. It ruined mine in the dryer. Bought the recommended pillow to replace them. I really like the material and how it can be stuffed.
Oh no! Yes, gel can't handle heat. I hope you like the pillows I recommended. Thanks for watching!
