Down comforter help
Permalink Closed

Hey girls, how do you keep your down comforter from getting full of feathers in some parts and thin in others? Right now I swear about 75% of the feathers in mine are at the bottom. It has a baffle-bxo construction, which was supposed to help, but it hasn't. I've tried shaking it to no avail. Do you think if I hung it up that the feathers would redistribute? Thanks!

Seems like I've heard that drying it (on fluff w/ no heat) with a tennis ball will help redistribute the down.

this is what i do - works like a charm!  i have to do this every few months, which is kind of annoying.  why won't those feathers stay put??
