Pillows are washable. They usually have a tag with washing instructions like clothing.

Can you wash in regular washer? Or need commercial washer?

You can use a regular washer. Do 2 at a time so the load is balanced.

If you can, leave your pillows outside in the sunlight for a few hours.

Or open window, stick out 3/4 of the pillow, and close the window so most of the pillow is outside.

If they are feather pillows use a detergent that’s for wool and delicates.
Also when the feathers are wet, it can sometimes smell funny, but once it’s dry it’s fine.

What about a top loader? (with the "pole" thing in the middle)

Thank you!
(And thanx for the word - I knew the agitator wasn't called a "pole", just couldn't think of the right word!)

When you dry them, dry in low heat one at time to slow out to fluff back up. It can take a long time.
