Fillo Wide Camping Pillow Care and Cleaning Tips

Quick answer

To keep your NEMO Fillo Wide camping pillow clean and supportive, hand wash the removable cover in cold water, spot clean the pillow body, and store it fully dry and slightly inflated.

How to clean and care for your Fillo Wide camping pillow

1. Remove and wash the cover: Unzip and remove the outer cover. Machine wash on a gentle cycle with cold water and mild detergent, or hand wash. Do not use bleach or fabric softener. Air dry completely before reattaching. A common mistake is using hot water or a dryer, which can shrink or damage the cover fabric.
2. Spot clean the pillow body: Wipe the inflatable inner pillow with a damp cloth and mild soap. Rinse with a clean damp cloth. Do not submerge the pillow body or get moisture inside the valve. Never machine wash or soak the pillow body — moisture trapped inside can cause mold or damage the valve.
3. Dry thoroughly before storage: After cleaning, let both the cover and pillow body air dry completely in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat or sunlight. Store the pillow slightly inflated (about 25% full) to prevent creases and material fatigue. Storing fully deflated can cause the inner bladder to stick together or develop permanent creases.

Product facts
