Pillows need vacuuming & fluffing. Toss them into the dryer with 2 old tennis balls & a fabric sheet for 30 minutes. The heat & movement of the dryer shake dust particles loose, the pounding of the tennis balls plumps up the fabric & stuffing & the sheet improves the smell, ensuring fresh pillows.

Renew pillows in your dryer. Tried and tested by me. lol
