A lumpy comforter can ruin both the look of your bed and the quality of your sleep. Thankfully, fixing it is easier than you might think! Follow these 3 simple steps to restore your comforter’s fluff and shape:
1. Give It a Good Shake
Hold your comforter by the corners and give it a strong shake. This helps redistribute the filling and loosen any clumps. Do this from different angles to reach every section. It’s quick, easy, and surprisingly effective—especially for daily maintenance.
2. Tumble Dry with Tennis Balls
Place your comforter in the dryer with a couple of clean tennis balls or dryer balls. Use low heat and let it tumble for 20–30 minutes. The balls will bounce around, gently breaking up the lumps and fluffing the filling. Avoid high heat to prevent damage to the fabric or fill.
3. Even Out by Hand
After drying, lay the comforter flat and gently press or massage any remaining clumps. Push the fill around to even out the thickness. If needed, fold the comforter and press down to help smooth things out further.
Pro Tip: To prevent lumps from forming in the future, make sure your comforter is stored loosely, washed gently, and always dried thoroughly.
A smooth, fluffy comforter not only looks better—it feels better too!
