Laundering Cushions regardless of size
The key to successfully laundering a cushion (regardless of size or shape) is to wash them in your washing machines on its cold-water cycle, then thoroughly rinse them out. Then, insert the cushion material into the shell while moist/almost thoroughly dried out. Never, and I repeat never, put the shell into a dryer and never allow the shell to dry out completely. The shell will shrink making it difficult if not impossible to get the filer material back into it. For small surface stains, I use our Bissel small steam cleaner (little green machine) on the material, then blot the area with a bath towel overnight. To immediately use the cushion after cleaning the stain, us a hair dryer to rapidly dry out the former stain.
