Yes, you can put Squishmallows in the washing machine, but it’s not officially recommended by the manufacturer. To do so safely, use a delicate cycle with cold water. This helps prevent any damage to the polyester stuffing.
Place your Squishmallow in a pillowcase, delicates bag, or a zippered mesh lingerie bag. This will protect it from getting damaged during the wash cycle. Avoid using hot water, bleach, or fabric softener, as these can ruin the fabric and stuffing.
After washing, let your Squishmallow air dry in a well-ventilated area or in the sun. This helps it regain its shape. Avoid using a dryer, as the heat can cause damage.
Machine washing is not recommended by the manufacturer, so proceed with caution. However, if you follow these steps, you can keep your Squishmallow clean and fluffy without causing harm.
