Quick Answer

Machine wash and dry your Bon Bon the Bear before first use, then repeat as needed using a gentle cycle and low heat.

Why Pre-Wash Matters

Under the Nile recommends machine washing and drying Bon Bon before first use to remove any loose threads. This step ensures the toy is ready for safe cuddling right away.

Keeping Bon Bon Soft Over Time

Bon Bon is made with a soft sherpa fabric and 100% organic stuffing. Frequent gentle washing helps maintain its snuggable texture without damaging the material.

How to Wash Bon Bon the Bear

  1. 1. Prepare for Washing: Place Bon Bon in a mesh laundry bag to protect the sherpa fabric. Use a gentle cycle with cold water and a mild detergent. A mesh bag prevents snags and keeps the toy's shape intact.
  2. 2. Machine Wash: Run the gentle cycle. Avoid bleach or fabric softener, which can break down the organic fibers and reduce softness. Check for any loose threads after the cycle ends.
  3. 3. Machine Dry on Low Heat: Tumble dry on low heat until completely dry. High heat can shrink or distort the toy's shape. Remove promptly to prevent wrinkles. If the toy is still damp, run an extra low-heat cycle rather than air drying, which can leave the stuffing lumpy.
