How can I wash them? I recall there being washing instructions with them when I bought them, but I've either lost them or thrown them out. :oops:

This may sound gross, but I haven't. I do dust them with baby powder on occassion.

I just toss them in the washer. They seem indestructible!:P

I recall the instructions said to hand wash them.

I also hand wash and put them on the ends of a plastic hanger to dry.
Then rub the sticky side with baby powder.

Don't feel bad Chico....I haven't washed mine in way too long!

I do the same, but the baby powder smell got to me, so now I use corn starch instead.

This is what it says in the instructions:

RECOMMENDED CARE:
We recommend that you hand wash the product. Air dry product and lightly dust product with talcum powder after drying.

At the risk of sounding like a stupid college student who's used to just throwing things in the washer (which I guess I am :oops: ) how do you handwash them? Do you use Woolite or regular detergent or what?

This is amusing- I've been meaning to post this myself for ages now and I just kept forgetting. I've had my Bungas for over a year and I've never washed them. Oddly, they really don't smell. Go figure.

I just bought new ones, in part because I didn't really want to bother washing them! (Well, and their time had come. They were starting to tear.)

I use liquid laundry detergent....any liquid soap will do I suppose. You could use a bit of dishwashing liquid too. Or just put some powdered soap in some water, swish it around, and drop those bungas in. Swish some more...rinse out...there you go!

Thanks Elsy. =-)

I haven't noticed mine smelling. I use the powder so they don't stick.

Every Christmas I ask for a new set of Bunga's. I find mine lose their cush over time.

Thank goodness for these things!
