I inherited a couch that smells like dog. I like dogs, so I can deal with it.
I washed all the cushion covers and they are okay. I sprayed the foam from the seat cushions with Febreeze and hung them on the line in a hammock I made out of an old sheet.
The back cushions are too big to fit into the dryer as is. They are filled with lumpy loose poly fill. I plan to wrap the loose fill with quilt batting to give them more shape and a firmer appearance. But how to wash the loose fill? Can I just put it in the washer loose? Or should I put it in some sort of smaller cover like a zippered pillow protector and do half a cushion at a time?
Or should I just fill up the bathtub with detergent and water, then rinse it all out in the shower? Then I can hang it on my clothesline 'hammock'.
I looked into replacing it all with foam but it was going to be $100
