Using your new pillow is easy. Just place it on your bed, and you're ready for a great night's sleep. Make sure to keep it dry and avoid getting it wet as it can damage the down filling. If it gets dirty, you can spot - clean it gently with a mild detergent and a soft cloth. It's best to air - dry the pillow in a well - ventilated area. Don't expose it to direct sunlight for too long as it may fade the cotton cover. You can fluff the pillow regularly to keep its shape and maintain its firmness.
