I only wash about 2x a year because it takes about 2-3 cycles to dry them and it ends up being an all-day project with washing the duvet as well. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-wash-pillows-before-using-them#post-1004308 Fri, 09 Aug 2013 13:19:27 +0000 avivoca 1004308@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've never washed them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-wash-pillows-before-using-them#post-1004289 Fri, 09 Aug 2013 13:14:03 +0000 2PeasinaPod 1004289@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Crumbs: I do the same. I love feather pillows and I don't think they would wash all that well...so I throw them in the dryer on occasion and wash the pillow protectors that I have on them each time we wash our sheets (every 2 weeks). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-wash-pillows-before-using-them#post-1004269 Fri, 09 Aug 2013 13:09:29 +0000 SugarplumsMom 1004269@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This sounds gross, but I only throw them into the dryer. I do use thick pillow protectors (underneath the pillow covers) and I wash those regularly. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-wash-pillows-before-using-them#post-1004261 Fri, 09 Aug 2013 13:06:21 +0000 looch 1004261@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wash them once a month, especially in the summer. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-wash-pillows-before-using-them#post-1004258 Fri, 09 Aug 2013 13:05:29 +0000 chopsuey 1004258@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I used to never wash pillows (for our bed) until DH mentioned washing them. </p> <p>Now I wash them at least once a month. Makes sense that they can get nasty! </p>
