I'm not sure where I heard this, it might have even been on this site. Anyhow, it really works. When drying a comforter in the dryer, throw a few clean tennis balls in with it. It fluffed up the comforter and re-distributed all the filling evenly throughout! I was getting ready to throw it away, but it's like new again. Great tip!
I have done this for years, and it works beautifully on down comforters, regular comforters, heavy winter coats, etc. Make sure, however, that you use a washer/dryer that accommodates your comforters easily. Queens and kings should only be done in commercial washers/dryers. Good luck!

I, too, read this tip somewhere and tried it. IT WORKS. Wherever it came from, I thank them for it.
