Yes, otherwise there will be too many bubbles (like using handwashing liquid in a dishwasher).
One of the pros of front-loading machines is the savings on water. A con of the machine is that you have to buy specialized low-suds detergent.
Yes, it is safe to use HE detergent in a normal top-loader washing machine.From Tide.com: "Our HE detergent is designed especially for HE washing machines - both front and top loading. If you have a non-HE washing machine (which is usually top-loading only), you can use HE detergentbut it's not necessary. It won't harm the machine but you'll notice less suds."
I would think so.
While that sounds as an agreeable proposition to use half the quantity as you would for a top loader, it still is advisable not to use a detergent designed to be used for a top loader when you want to use a front loading washer. It is best to use a HE (High Efficiency) detergent in a front loading washer. Minimal suds is the key. No suds at all is the best option, though quite unlikely. Top loading detergent also inhibits the evaporation of water around the seal and promotes the growth of bacteria mold and mildew.
No a front loading washing machine does not need special laundry soap to function.
Apparently you can and it shouldn't be a problem - provided it is a front-loading machine, not top-loading ones.....
The advantages of a front loading washing machine over a top loading washing machine is that with the front loading machines , you can usually hold more laundry equally and efficiently which saves on money and conserves alot more water than normally would
Yes you can use. But if the front loading washers, if used with the right detergent are a great investment. You’ll save a lot of electricity and money as a result. Plus, front loaders are more sophisticated technology and hence arguably have been cleaning technology than the traditional top loaders.
The Samsung WF218ANW is the highest rated front loading washer. The Frigidaire Gallery GLTF2940FS is the highest rated budget machine and the Samsung WF448AAW front loading machine with steam.
The detergent used in a front loading washing machine generally uses less surfactant, the agent in all detergents that creates suds to lift out dirt. It is also more concentrated than the top loading kind. Front loading washing machines have been used in Europe for a long time, but are just now coming into their own here in the US. They require less water, and therefore less detergent. It may be a matter of opinion, but these machines wash better, and put less stress on clothes. Surfactants reduce the surface tension of a liquid. When used in washing clothes, it allows water to penetrate garments, break up soil, and allow dirt to easily disperse into the liquid.
No. It should not increase the energy efficiency by being a top loading machine compared to a front loading machine. Shop around for the type appropriate to your situation and financial capabilities.
The use of water depends on which of the two types of machines you have, between a top-loading and a front-loading. A top-loading washer uses around 40 gallons of water from start to finish, whereas a front-loading machine uses about half as much..
