What's the best way to wash these? Washer and dryer safe or no? No tips on the manufacturer site I can find.

I wash mine in the washer on the "delicate" setting. I then let them air dry at room temperature. ....

From my experience, they are washer safe on most any cycle. I think it is preferred to let them air dry. They won't be damaged in the dryer, but it could shorten their useable life over time.

I have washed them in a washing machine without any problems, but I do put them in a lingerie bag, and I air-dry them. I wouldn't just throw them in the machine. A zipper pillow case works well also.

You've got me there, Steve. I just throw mine in the washer with regular detergent then into the dryer with fabric softener sheets. They come out fine. If you have more than one pad, why don't you try the S20 Laundry Detergent sheets (I have never heard of these sheets) on it an see what happens. One thinkg you might do is change the speed of the washing machine. I tend to wash mine on a gentler cycle the first few times just to see how they do. If I have been of no help (which won't be a surprise to me), try emailing the manufacturer and asking them. Personally, I think you are safe using your sheets but try them on one first...just to be safe. Polly You've got me there, Steve.

Put it in the washing machine just like you would towels. However, I find it's better to air dry them instead of putting them in the dryer.

I wash in warm water and dry them on the lowest setting. My dryer has an automatic sensor so I let it determine the time. Occasionally I have to run them through the dryer a second time but not often. They do fine that way.

I've been using mine for several years. They are still fine and I put mine through the washer and dryer constantly. I can't imagine why someone would throw them out, unless they are not washing them at all and are using them as disposable washcloths.

I wouldn't even bother washing them, the green one fell apart when I washed it once. They supposedly cannot be dried in the dryer and supposedly dry ultra fast outside of the dryer, according to Tom, the owner. YA RIGHT. Good luck to anyone who buys these. You get a nice box and that is it. The rest is made in china cheap materials made of the cheapest products found in China.

I wash them without any trouble at all. I have a couple sets that I swap out while one is drying, so far so good.

I put them in the washer and have put them in the dryer and it doesn't seem to bother them. The only thing is that the edges pick up lint from the dryer. They are invincible!

they can be warm washed but dont put them in the dryer. did that to my first set and messed them up. dont know what happened to them . my best guess would be chemical break down from washer to the dryer?

I've been washing them on the highest heat with steam and adding vinegar. Dry them on my normal dry setting. No issues yet, I've washed mine about 10 times so far and no problems

I have washed them in the top rack of the dishwasher. That seems to do a good enough job. I haven't tried the regular washing machine. Hope this helps.

I've successfully washed them many times in my dishwasher. I can't speak to the manufacturer's recommendation but I've had no issues doing so.

Wash in cold water. I do not put mine in a dryer. I put them outside to dry in the air or will just put them back in the shower since they're going to get wet again anyway.

These can be washed a few times only until the fibers give up. Buy these directly from the manufacturer, if it is hoover or Shark etc. After uwashing, squeeze to let out water but don't squeeze or turn it or you will damage it. Then air dry it by putting a fan in front of it or if possible, leave under the sun. Again, from my experience, it is better to pay a little extra and buying from the company instead of somewhere else. Hope this helps.

Have not washed mine yet but this is what I am going to do. I am going to treat them like they were a gentle item I wash, I am going to spray them with fantasic because fantastic takes off everything it is amazing.. I am then going to put them into a pillow case tie it shut and wash them on gentle cycle.. I then am going to air dry them... Or in summer I will lay them out on my patio table to dry in the sun .. God Bless

I just wash them in the washing machine in hot water with normal detergent and dry them in the dryer without fabric softener. I use them in the kitchen for everything, including fine straining, hence not using fabric softener. IF they get really greasy, you can throw a cupful of vinegar into the washer with them.
