How to Fluff a Double Pillow-Top Mattress

A double pillow-top mattress has a top layer of padding that adds extra softness and cushioning. Sometimes, these are referred to as "luxury pillow tops." Both single pillow tops and double pillow tops become flattened or uneven due to regular use. Regularly fluffing the pillowy top layer will fix these problems and ensure a comfortable pillow-top sleeping experience.

Heavy-duty clothesline (if applicable)
Vacuum
Broom stick (optional)

Instructions

- 1
  Remove all bedding from the mattress. Remove the pillow top if possible. If your pillow top is sewn onto the mattress, skip to Step 3.
- 2
  Hang the pillow top over a heavy-duty clothesline. Do this outside to allow airflow to help fluff the pillow top. Replace the top on the mattress after a few hours of it hanging outside.
- 3
  Use a vacuum hose attachment to gently vacuum the top surface of the pillow top. This will remove dust and help fluff the surface.
- 4
  Use a broom stick or your hands to beat the mattress top. Hit it hard in various spots to move around the pillow-top filling.
- 5
  Replace the bedding.
