BallcapBuddy Hat Washer for Washing Machine or Dishwasher, Cap Washer, Baseball Cap Washers, Baseball Hat Cleaner Cage/Cleaning Protector Made in USA (Black (2-Pack))

I’ve been washing my baseball caps by hand for years and they always ended up a little warped or just not looking right. I grabbed this BallcapBuddy on a whim and it’s a total game changer. Just pop your hat in, snap it shut, and throw it in the washing machine (top loader). My hats come out clean, shaped perfectly, and the brim stays nice and curved like new.I’ve already washed like 6 different caps (fitted and snapback) and it works great every time. The plastic feels strong and the latch is easy to use. I even tossed it in the dishwasher on the top rack once to test it and it cleaned up with no problem.No more hand washing or ruined hats. My favorite caps actually look brand new again. Super simple tool but it does exactly what it says.If you have a bunch of hats that need regular cleaning, just get this. Worth every penny.5 stars. I’m probably buying a second one so I can wash two at a time. Highly recommend!

I’m very happy with this item. It performs exactly as advertised and has been completely reliable so far. Setup was simple, everything functioned right out of the box, and the quality is exactly what I expected. No complaints at all it does its job well and feels like a solid, well made product. Overall, a great purchase that I would definitely recommend.

So far so good. Definitely a plus from the old ways of cleaning caps. I used the dishwasher as my cleaning method. Did barely well with maintaining the integrity of the shape of the caps too.These particular caps are over 5 years old and never been cleaned. I had actually retired them.Definitely recommend this product.

Great for in the dishwasher OR washing machine

I have a few hats I wear quite often that were starting to look really gross from all the sweat that's been through them. Hand washing is time consuming and a pain and the thought of putting them in the dishwasher just didn't seem right. After all, I'd rather use detergent designed for washing fabric on my hats than detergent designed for washing dishes. I wanted something that would let me wash my hats in the washing machine without getting the bills all broken. While there's lots of products on Amazon for washing baseball caps, this one seemed a little more legit and had a lot of positive reviews. Unfortunately this really didn't seem as good as I hoped. It's fairly thin plastic and doesn't seem very durable. It's also a little tricky to get open. While my hats do look cleaner and the bills are still in good shape, the holder seemed to come apart opposite the side that opens during the spin cycle and the hats mostly slipped from the holder, despite washing on the delicate cycle and at the lowest spin speed. Unfortunately all of the competing products seem to be more of the same or worse. There really needs to be something more durable that will firmly hold the hat that can hold up in a washing machine.

Works great in my top-load, impeller (not agitator) washing machine. I threw my hat in with my clothes and it came out nice and clean on the first try. The plastic frame is not damaged whatsoever.Some reviewers seem to have had issues using a washing machine, so I will detail exactly what I did for success:1) Spray stain remover on trouble spots, especially on the sweat stains inside of the hat.2) Pour laundry detergent all over the hat, using your hands to completely massage the inside and outside of the hat in soap.3) Load the washer with your clothes, then place the hat on top of the clothes topside up.4) Add laundry detergent as normal, maybe a little less since the hat is covered in the stuff.5) Wash clothes as normal. I did not use any sort of "delicate" or "heavy duty" modes.6) Do NOT put in the dryer with your clothes. Hang it outside to dry or in your house under a fan. Leave it inside the plastic frame until dry.If you want the hat to be even more clean, just throw it in with another load of clothes before drying. After washing with my black clothes in cold water and then my white clothes in hot water, my ancient hat looks very clean.Keep in mind that I have a top-load, impeller (not agitator) washing machine. That means that the hole to put clothes in is on the top, and there is no giant cylinder with blades inside of my machine. If you have a front load and/or agitator washing machine, your results may vary from mine. Also be aware that the plastic frame is two pieces that clip together, one big clip in the back and two small ones in the front. One of the front two clips had come undone when I washed my hat the first time, and I simply popped it back into place. This did not happen the second time I washed it.I did not try using a dish washer to clean my hat and I probably won't bother, since I have had so much success just adding it to my laundry routine.

NOTE: I HIGHLY recommend that you use this in a dishwasher only. Due to the overall construction, I don't see how it could last long in a clothes washer.The Nike hat was my golf hat that I had "retired" due the sweat stains really showing. The other hat is one I like to wear on any given day with a pair of jeans. Before washing, I sprayed some of the more heavily soiled areas with a spray 'n wash-equivalent cleaner, hoping for a better result. I placed the hats in the top rack and ran it on a standard wash cycle.When the cycle ended, I removed the hats and was slightly shocked to see that while they looked overall cleaner, every area that was heavily soiled before washing was still dirty. I ended up taking a wash rag and scrubbing over where the sweat stains were on the exterior of each hat, as well as the head band area on the inside of each to remove a large amount of remaining stains that were likely from sweat combined with hair product residue. The last three photos show the results after allowing the hats to dry.Pros: The frame serves it's purpose of keeping the hat's shape while washing. It's fairly sturdy, snaps together snugly, and stayed snapped during the wash. It should last for numerous cycles in the top rack of the dish washer.Cons: Many people that purchased these likely haven't used them before. The seller should include better instructions, including possibly having to pre-treat hats, and/or even having to scrub certain parts of the hats to ensure better cleaning. If the seller had done this I would have rated it 5-stars.

I use them in the dishwasher, works well, keeps the hats shape

Fini les casquettes bousillées, fonctionne au lave vaisselle comme en machine à laver !

The product does not hold up at all.It's like a piece of paper.Absolutely no value for money.Never recommend purchasing. 🚨🚨🚨

Muy útil para la limpieza de las gorras, me ha servido ya que era muy difícil lavarlas antes. Así se cuidan y no se maltratan.

Es perfecto para lavar cualquier tipo de gorra🧢 Recomiendo dejarlas secar con la arandela puesta para que la gorra conserve su forma :)
