Let’s be honest, everyone thinks they know how to do laundry, but it’s simply not true. The majority of folks weren’t taught correctly, but that ends here. Let’s dig in to these two major reasons why customers blame the machines.

Many customers believe more soap = cleaner clothes, but that’s not the case. Believe it or not, if your laundry looks just like the photo above or video below, you actually end up leaving soap residue on your clothes if you think the single rinse during the wash cycle will get it all out. It won’t! So, how much soap are your supposed to use?

Read the detergent bottles or boxes because they tell you how much to use and at times you will have to adjust depending on how large your load is and how dirty it is. Please remember, our machines are HE (high efficiency) machines and do not need a ton of soap.

High efficiency machines are designed to clean without tons of water or detergent. All HE detergents are highly concentrated, or potent, so that you use less, but still get clean laundry.

Trying to save money by stuffing the washer with all your dirty laundry? Here’s news for you…you are actually wasting your money (on the wasted wash and gas to and from the laundromat), as well as your time.

A stuffed washer does not deliver a fresh, clean load of laundry. Take note, when you look through the window and if you see is a giant ball rolling around as one unit, you have overloaded the machine and your clothes are NOT getting clean. Clothes or whatever you are washing, need space to agitate (move freely around). It’s the agitation that gets your clothes clean, not just soap and water.

Likewise, when you overload the dryers with the least amount of time possible to save money, your load(s) will still be damp. Or if you load a dryer with a load that looks like a giant ball, there will be no room for agitation. Thus, the load will not dry.

Think about each time you wash your hands. Do you wet your hands, put soap on, and then immediately rinse without scrubbing your hands together? No. The scrubbing (agitation) is what gets your hands clean and it goes the same for washing anything at the laundromat.

A properly loaded dryer will take an average of 40 minutes to dry, but that also depends on the fabric. The heavier the fabric is, the longer it will take to dry.
