Washing machines

[catnapper]

You'd think I was deebating something life-altering... I can not believe how hard choosing a washer has been!

I did finally choose a washer. Its a front loader (much to my own surprise!) My hesistation with it was the reviews. There were love-it or hate-it reviews. 1 star or 5 stars. Nothing in between. The sales lady was WONDERFUL and explained all the prods and cons and what to expect with a front loader.

Now.... what do I do with the HUGE container of regular laundry soap that I bought from Sam's Club a few weeks ago?

I don't use special laundry soap with my front loader. I just use way way less. If it's powder I use like a tbsp, and if it's liquid I fill it half way to the first line on the measuring cup thingy that comes with it.
My clothes appear to be clean so I'll just keep doing what I'm doing....

I also never use the special detergents they say you need with the front loaders. I buy the liquid but have used the powder to finish a box I had and have never had a problem. BUT...like Shelteez mentioned, you do have to use much less . I can do a load of heavily soiled clothes with one tbls. of liquid Tide and cold water, evererything comes out sparkling. The regular soaps are cheaper also.

Do you have any fountains or water features in the neighborhood?

A well is the next best thing and that's what we have here so I never have to worry about water...nice bonus.

You missed Richard's point! Concussion - right? Okay - so you have an excuse I guess.
