Homemakers have discovered a simple trick for safely washing down jackets. It is recommended to wash jackets with tennis balls, use liquid detergent for delicate clothing, and avoid using the spin cycle. Many jackets have labels indicating they should not be machine washed, but for those that can be, the trick with the balls prevents the formation of feather clumps. It is advised to wash one jacket at a time, use specialized detergent, and select a program for delicate clothing.
