How to Use a Feather Bed Topper

Feather Bed Topper Basics

• 1

  Fluff your feather bed topper to allow the down fill to expand to its full potential. Place the topper on a flat surface and use your fingers and forearms to push the fill through the baffled boxes or channels so that it is evenly distributed.

• 2

  Protect your feather bed topper with a cotton cover to extend the time between dry-cleanings or home launderings. These are similar to duvet (comforter) covers and may be secured with zippers, buttons or ties.

• 3

  Air out your feather bed topper routinely. A couple of hours in a sunny spot freshens up the down fill and gives it more loft.

• 4

  Gently steam the fabric cover of your feather bed topper if it becomes wrinkled. Never iron down bedding.

• 5

  Dry-clean your feather bed topper when necessary. It's possible to launder this item of bedding at home. But, because it's easy to damage down bedding, dry-cleaning is preferable to home washing.
