Before Using We recommend letting the pillow sit for about 48-72 hours to inflate before first use as it is vacuum-packed for easy shipping. Shake and pat the pillow to help it refluff. Daily Use Only wash the pillowcase. The pillowcase is machine washable. Please wash with like colors. No bleach. The QUEEN ROSE body pillow is not only suitable for personal use, but it is also an ideal gift for friends and family to accompany you into your dreams.
