To keep your comforter and other bedding from losing its shape when it is washed and dried, use tennis balls. Simply place your comforter in the dryer with about four tennis balls and turn it on. The balls will keep your comforter from losing its shape.
Thanks for the tip on washing the bed comforter, it really works. I just found this site and I love it. No more buying everything under the sun at the store and nothing works right.
it works!
I use tennis balls continuosly to keep clothes from tangling.
I tried this and was surprised! It really works..
Thanks. I just washed one when I didn't have this tip. Will do it next time.
I never thought of that idea of the tennis balls in the dryer with the comforter, mine gets all outa shape. I will try them next time, thanks for the tip...love this site, just found it today
One thing in addition to all this.....the tennis balls fluff the item in the dryer as it dries. This reduces the amount of time it takes for the item to dry....saves on electric and gas and the whole energy thing...try it....it works.
I used tennis balls drying my bed linens and they got green and yellow splotches all over them from the tennis ball dye.

this works for down jackets, pillows and almost anything else fluffy too
