  • Some other tips are putting a few tennis balls in the dryer. This will help reduce the amount of time to dry while fluffing bulkier items.

    I also add white vinegar in during the rinse cycle as a natural fabric softner. Don't worry it doesn't leave any odor!

  • this is referring to my other comment, now they also have purex, arctic power, tide and many other brands that are designed to work in coldwater. usually regular detergent will get the job done in cold water too. a good way to not use hot water is to turn off the hot faucet and get a splitter tap for the cold hookup and hook both of the inlet faucets that run to the washer into the splitter. i like to save energy as much as i can but i do not recommend any HE Washers as they are junk.

  • @sincladutch ya now they say washing your thing in cold is better for the clothes and is ECO

  • Thank you.. It's a very detailed laundry tip.. I appreciate it. :)

  • ooxford14 is correct. The amounts called for by the manufacturer are designed to sell more detergent. Using half of the reccomended amount will be adequate for normally soiled garments. Heavily soiled garments may require a larger amount, but using less detergent will save you a lot of money and it's better for the environment.

  • Lots of good advice here. I do two things differently, though. If you haven't already started making your own laundry powder (3 ingredients, cleans like crazy) or you can't change from the manufactured stuff, please don't use as much as it says on the label. Some washer problems, according to a repair man I know, are the result of using more soap than necessary. Same goes for dishwashers. Use about half of what the product label dictates.

    Also, hot for just bedlinens. Cold is best instead

  • Maybe because she's obese.

  • @armywifeM08 have you seen her?

  • wow i just put my greys with all my colors -_-
