Using your pillows properly and keeping them in good condition is essential to obtain optimal rest and contribute to their useful life. Here you will find some recommendations for the proper use and maintenance of pillows.

Recommendations for use

• Consider if you use them only to sleep or also to lift your back and head when you read or watch television.
• If you usually lean on the pillow, it should be firm and thick, for greater comfort.
• To sleep it is better that the pillow is softer and more flexible, so it is advisable to have more than one pillow and of different types depending on its use.
• If you are allergic to certain types of padding or to mites in general, find a hypoallergenic pillow or use allergy covers. These pillow protectors guarantee total insulation. Being a water vapor permeable fabric, these covers do not generate moisture, which makes them completely safe and washable.
• Before resting your head, tap your pillow from the sides towards the inside, this way you will achieve a greater volume of the fibers for a better rest.

Maintenance tips

• The change of the pillow will depend on its deterioration. If it loses the shape or part of the filling, becomes stained or has a bad smell, it is time to change it for a new one.

• Wash the pillow as little as possible; do not spin it, let it drain as much as possible and let it dry flat. If your pillow is made of feathers, do not put it in the washing machine or the dryer. Wash it by hand, in cold or warm water.
