I'm a new father so have I got this right? soiled nappy straight into bucket which is filled with water and lavender oil lined with a mesh bag , at 5 dirty nappies mesh bag and nappies into the machine on a short cold rinse then 60deg wash with half a bio degradable wash tablet no conditioner!

@bilzup If the nappy is pooey you remove the soiled liner and flush this. The nappy then goes into the bucket and it's no longer recommended to soak. Bucket has mesh inside and few drops of lavender to scent bucket if required. Once bucket is full (approx 12 nappies) cold rinse and then wash at 60deg with half non bio detergent and no softner.

yes definitely don't use it on any nappies with elastic in them it will rot the elastic.

amazing thankyou heaps for that. a suggestion on the nappies also, is when ur drying them, try and dry them on there side because if u hand them from the tip it alows the elastic to stretch. just a thought. but thanks heaps, very profesional!

Thanks. I didn't realise Nappysan wasn't recommended for modern nappies.
