For someone who considers myself very organized and clean I have to admit I like doing laundry. There were years where I had to go to a crusty crowded laundry mat to collect change and spend money in machines that didn't work. Having a washer and dryer 24/7, folding my clothes in my own time and putting it away brings me great joy!
30 seconds in thats what classic washers were. Load and start; few knobs for slight changes to whats going in. I absolutely love older tech where it’s a balance of not doing it all by hand and not done by an internet connected failure factory of parts. Great video!
I’ve purchased luxury Egyptian Cotton Towels a year ago - they are the fluffiest thing ever and they actually get whiter with time. They never smell and I will never go back to normal towels. They are worth every cent. I wash them separately. Natural fibres are preferred here over any artificial fibres. Also we don’t own a dryer out of environmental reasons - we always hang our laundry to dry and the smell you get from fresh air is divine! I ditched fabric softener a long time ago, too. We use natural detergent without any perfume. It’s life changing.
when i was younger i hung close out in winter and omg it gives it the best scent and the scent lasts for long time.. the close freeze but when you bring them in you dry for shorter amount of time and they still smell awesome
Front load washers are the best. Our clothes get so clean. Didn't need the pedestal either. Cold water cycle helps save on heating the water and our machine is energy efficient. So thankful for it.
We just got new machines a few months ago still learning all the fancy settings. One setting it has it to add a steam rinse on any cycle, so it can zap in really hot steam for things you want to sanitize, but don’t want to put in the sanitize/allergy cycle. We wash linens in sanitize cycle a lot more during the winter AKA plague season… haha
Hi Melissa, you say you never use the rinse and spin. I have used it a few times, and here is when. I have "trained" my husband to do laundry and my 16 year old twins are also learning how to do it. My son has actually started doing his own laundry now. In these "training" times I get them to do a visual "inspection" when the washing is done to see if there is excess soap. Then we use the rinse and spin to get the excess soap out. Or when I left the washing in the tub a little too long (like an hour) after finishing, so I rinse and spin just to get them wet so they wrinkle less on the line. We hang out washing outside and our dryer has been broken for about a year. So having washing a little wet helps when you shake them out they do have less wrinkles.
I also change my bath towels twice a week; my bathroom hand towels, every second day (we are only 2 adults); my kitchen towels approx every other day or every day, depending on the use. So ther you go.
I use cold water most of the time but still feel the need to go hot for towels and sheets. I really should trust the cold water cycle. And I haven't used fabric softener for years now, nasty product. Thanks for the tips! I change my towels about 2 a week. Company coming? New towels 🎉
Even though I have a top loader with an agitator I watched this video and found it to be very informative. Btw, I hated my previous washing machine which was a front loader. I hated the technology and the long cycles.
We use the rinse & spin function on our Samsung machine if we notice that there’s still soap/suds in the door seal after the cycle has ended. Maybe we used a little too much detergent so we rinse it again to get rid of it. Usually tend to find this is the case after washing towels or bed linens. 😊
Love the sweater or jumper tip as we call them in Europe. I'm terrible i have to wash my clothes after one wear and my jumpers get old fast will try putting in a laundry bag from now on thanks for the tip❤
I have a top loader, no agitator. I wash my towels like normal, and then pour some vinegar into the drum and use the rinse and spin. Helps remove any soap residue that my towels may have and makes them more absorbant.
Great video, Melissa! Really loved the breakdown on all the steps of a wash cycle. As far as towel changing frequency goes, we're about the same over here. But my kids are little, so sometimes it's more often cause they love to splash at bath time lol thanks for the motivation and tips!
It seems that the powder or liquid detergent is a controversial topic... Liquid detergent is the fastest way to use the soap in the washing machine, however they say that using only the liquid can ruin the washing machine in the long term..... Washing powder, they say, is more efficient for whites and it doesn't leave residue in the washing machine, that's why it doesn't ruin the machine..... So what I do is using them both, liquid for colours and blacks, powder for linen and towels generally white and I put it directly in the drum ❤
I'm one of those rare ones that loves my iron bed clothes. Its that Hotel Feeling. And Starched colours and cuffs on my blouses. But love the rest of your tips
Rinse and spin- I use this when there are lingering soap bubbles after the cycle, despite using minimum detergent as recommended by the appliance store and repair people. Detergent bottles tell consumers to use far more than necessary. If you have bubbles, use less! I use a tablespoon for a normal load, otherwise I have bubbles afterward, even with an extra rinse added to the cycle. If I have a garment that is sopping wet after a cycle, often a one item load, I use this cycle with a couple of towels to help it spin correctly. Seems to work well.
Both my current and my last machine have sensors to weigh and adjust water. Yet according to the manual different settings have different volumes of water. With my last machine I have chronically underwashing my dark cotton clothes by using the synthetic setting that is half the normal load. Even though I have read the manual, I skipped that part until 10 years later. Now I rinse my clothes extra. My question is why different volumes of water per setting if it the machine has sensors to weigh the clothes?
I have this gorgeous comforter, that shuts my washing machine OFF. Every single time it just goes to an error message. Guess I'm going to eventually take it to the laundromat.
I have one that I only use in winter that has to go the laundromat. Yes it’s a pain, but I do love sleeping under it on cold nights. I have a couple of cats so at least once a week I go over the top side with a lint brush to keep it clean. Winters are thankfully short here in Florida, so I usually only have to take it to the laundromat before I put it away in Spring.
@@susanpeterson9947 I used to have a one made out of denim, loved that thing in winters here in NY. Now I have this thing which isn't as heavy, but I've been using 2 every night with this one I just need it.
Fold it in half, then like a taco and roll it up loosely like a sleeping bag and use heavy duty or blanket setting . Works well for my heavy cal king and king
I'm surprised you spent 5 minutes explaining why we should keep towels bone dry and then suggesting a streamer to soften, without mentioning steam adds moisture to the towel and if you steam and fold without drying, it will smell. 💖🌞🌵😷
How often to wash towels? Every body is different. If you wash your underwear (or clothes that lay right on your skin) after one wearing. Wash your towels after every use. If you wear your underwear a couple of times before washing, then do the same with your towels. 💖🌞🌵😷
My hot water heater only heats to 125f. Does the sanitize cycle heat the water to reach the 165f? Or should I rely on the high dryer heat to do the sanitizing? 💖🌞🌵😷
It depends on your washer. Some have on-board heaters. The manufacturer can tell you what temperatures are associated with each cycle. If there is no heater, the maximum temperature is at least a little less than you water heater temperature. It depends on the distance from heater to washer and the temperature of the water sitting in the pipes. I would never by a washer without and on-board heater, because I'm a fan of hot water and detergent powder.
For all of you that have fur babies, I recommend fur zappers. They are miracle workers. They attract all the fur and all you have to do is rinse them in dish soap and they last forever!!!!!!
How and where do you store dirty microfiber towels? Especially if they are wet? Do you just throw them in a laundry hamper or hang dirty towels somewhere to dry? Is there a video on this? Thanks for the advice, I'm just getting into the microfiber world! 😉
My son’s dark tshirts go stiff and hard in the arm pits. I’ve tried hydrogen peroxide, still not good. If I leave overnight will the peroxide bleach the dark colors?
I use the rinse and spin cycle if I've hand washed out something and I want the machine to finish off the process. I hate the wringing, and the spin cycle saves my wrists.
I've had instances where the machine shuts off either because of an error or power outage. In the event there's still a lot of residual soap, I use a rinse and spin cycle to clear it, check again after it runs and repeat until desired.
I've used the rinse and spin when I've been distracted a d forgotten a load of washing in the machine. I don't mean just half an hour, I mean if it accidentally sat there overnight!!!
I use rinse & spin if I hand wash anything. Ie I don't need to do a whole load but need something, I'll wash it in the sink and then rinse & spin to get it as dry as possible.
Im an adverage person with two kids.. I change our towels every day. Definitely don't go longer than two uses. I purchased enough towels for about 5 days and just wash every 3 days. I've never had smelly towels, and my towels are still white and bright. So for me, it's worth the extra laundry lol.
I used a washing machine cleaner for the first time (previously I used bleach) but since then, my dark laundry has had white linty looking streaks after washing. Re-rinsing helps. Any ideas what is going on? PS- the machine is an HE top loader.
Happy New Year... and thanks for this video. Question. I have a Samsung all in one washer dryer... and I have a Samsung Air Dresser clothes steamer. I wear hoodies and henly teeshirts and jeans or jeans shorts all carhartt 95% of the time. I am an electrician and 95% of the time.... I'm going out changing a light bulb, switch or plug (I am property maintenance) and coming back home. IE I'm not getting dirty. I might be picking up odors, some of the apartments I'm can be skeezy but as far as physical dirt on clothes... Almost never happens. How would you decide when to air dresser refresh clothes... and when to actually run them through the washer? 2ndly... washing jeans and drying them in an all in one... can get them terribly wrinkled. So far my solution is to do the 15 min wash cycle and then get them maybe 85-90% dry , take them out and smooth out the wrinkles by hand... and hang them on hangers in front of the fireplace.... Which leads to the 3rd question. My wife's biggest complaint about our all in one. Wash cycles are wonderful. The dryer cycle... Because it drys by adding hot water to the clothes and then trying to evaporate the moisture out... a 30 min or even 60 min dry cycle is a joke. It never gets the water out... that it adds when it starts. Generally if I do a 90 min dry cycle...most of the time most things will come out dry. 2 hrs... 95% of the time... things will be dry. Am I doing something wrong. I'd also like you thought on one more thing. Before say 5 years ago... Again I was wearing carhartt work wear... but at that point... I was deep into the mud and abandon bldgs and new houses... So I could wear the same 3 or 4 pairs of pants and maybe 6 or 7 hoodies... till they were thread bare. Then I decided to expand my horizons got maybe a dozen pairs of pants and 30 or 40 hoodies... pretty much every hoodie carhart sells... and determined that I was going to rotate through all of them. So a different combination of top and bottom every day. Except... how would you manage... the worn, but not soiled, things and not mix them up with the unworn things... to make sure you wore everything and not necessarily in the same order,every rotation. If that makes sense. Right now... Everything is folded Kon Marie method, I have 4 levels of shelves, each about 10' long in the closet. The Henly's are in 2 stacks... The 1st stack I pull from to wear... the 2nd stack is what's washed and gets pushed to 1st stack position. But Hoodies... take up to much space for that. So... generally when my super organized type A wife... is busy being type A worn hoodies are in a pile beside the air dresser,(bedroom closet) or by the washing machine. Any organizational... thoughts?
hey melissa i change towels both big and small everyday sometimes mutliple times a day i don´t mind cus i enjoy doing laundry. And having 2boys and a husband so the towels get dirty and smelly fast and i find that kinda gross. Happy holidays 🙂
I change my towels daily. Just how I was brought up. I didn’t know anyone did it differently until college. We own lots of towels. As such that is probably why I am not used to regularly seeing musty or dingy towels. Just my thoughts.
I was brought up the same way. I also allow the towels to dry before putting them in the hamper the result is I have never had a towel that had an off smell like so many people talk about.
So in much of the world, we dont use a dryer like in the US. At keast, its not as common and we air dry. I use the rinse and spin if i forgot to hang my clothes after using the laundry machine. Say i decided to watch another episode of TV after dinner but the clothes have been sitting in the drum wet for 40 minutes or more, ill rinse and spin it so no bacteria is growing in the moistened environment again and hang it to dry soon after.
your washing machine looks like a spaceship omg. i have an old maytag that was my grandparents. oh our dryer decided to stop drying recently so now we have to get a new one sigh. i'm getting one with old school knobs and the least amount of settings, i do NOT want one with digital screens and all that
I use alum water spray since years. Also i am vegan and i quit onion garlic as per the hindu ancient science. No more black skin, no more smell, no more yellow clothes.
What I need to know is how to remove those deodorant stains from colored and black clothing. I don't wear white clothes, but my work shirts are getting destroyed.
Well... my towel is personal, i work from home so i skip a shower from time to time. Why, waste time water and energy, lol. Also i shower well, even with bath gloves lately. At the end, i even wipe down extra water from the body with hands first. Then I grap my towel and simply dab 1ce to cover every inch of the surface. Thereafter it goes back straight flat to the towel bar. I am nor sure why would it smell or need any wash twice a week. I can go for a month sometimes. Especially using indian towels. They re pure cotton and thin enough. Why pollute the planet :)
Tip your server well. Leave a positive review. Smile at people in the street. Let the car merge ahead of you. Give an unexpected compliment. Buy someone in need something to eat. What is stopping you from doing any of those things? Normalize kindness.
I got so tired of yellow pit stains, no matter what I tried, I couldn't get rid of them. So I switched to a crystal salt deodorant stick. No more stains
I love your videos and content but I'm not so in favor of microfiber vs cotton. Every time you wash microfiber you are releasing microplastic in the water and the environment. You can't also recycle them and who knows how many centuries it takes to break down microfiber. It can be superior to cotton but imagine how much microplastic we would be adding to our planet if we were all using them. So I use cotton towels, hot water and little detergent.

Your towels are also very good for me medicallly. MUCH gentler on my skin, helping me avoid an eczema flair up!

I have a new LG washer/dryer in my apartment. Your video is surprisingly interesting, helpful and great timing! They should show this in schools!
Thanks very much for watching!

Rinse and Spin is GREAT for preshrinking fabric before sewing a garment.

Do you have a top loading washer?
I use the water temperature setting suggested by the clothing/towel/bedding manufacturer
The safest bet :)

Great info, thanks. I use my bath towel twice

I use rinse and spin when I’ve forgotten about the washing and left it in there wet for a day or two
Rinse and spin: great for when I used too much soap in the prior wash cycle...
I use the rinse and spin cycle if I've hand washed out something and I want the machine to finish off the process. I hate the wringing, and the spin cycle saves my wrists.
I've had instances where the machine shuts off either because of an error or power outage. In the event there's still a lot of residual soap, I use a rinse and spin cycle to clear it, check again after it runs and repeat until desired.
Every 2-3 days to wash towels, depending on 1 or 2 showers/baths per day.

Wow
hey melissa i change towels both big and small everyday sometimes mutliple times a day i don´t mind cus i enjoy doing laundry. And having 2boys and a husband so the towels get dirty and smelly fast and i find that kinda gross. Happy holidays
🙂
I confuse high spin with the agitation vs the spinning the water out at the very end
Maybe do a video on how gross our phones can get. Don’t take them into bathrooms
This is a great idea! Thanks for sharing :)

@@cleanmyspace and the loud klaxon blaring sound when the load is done drying on my dryer. no song. i hear that sucker and go 'ah! laundry is ready!

Why is my Samsung washing machine draining .it says check the drain and filter
i swear my 'normal' cycle will NOT let me change to cold!!
I'm in the uk. Your machine is HUGE!! lol! I think I've only seen one that big in a launderette! Interesting about the cold water.
They are on top of pedestals (1 is a drawer, and the other is a mini-washer) - but yes, they are HUGE!
What I need to know is how to remove those deodorant stains from colored and black clothing. I don't wear white clothes, but my work shirts are getting destroyed.
I wash towels and underwear in hot water. Those are the things that have the most bacteria. Everything else gets cold.
Thanks for watching Kari!
Well... my towel is personal, i work from home so i skip a shower from time to time. Why, waste time water and energy, lol. Also i shower well, even with bath gloves lately. At the end, i even wipe down extra water from the body with hands first. Then I grap my towel and simply dab 1ce to cover every inch of the surface. Thereafter it goes back straight flat to the towel bar. I am nor sure why would it smell or need any wash twice a week. I can go for a month sometimes. Especially using indian towels. They re pure cotton and thin enough. Why pollute the planet :)
I use hot water for underwear, towels and beds sheets .

I appreciate you sharing that :)
Hand towels get changed out every day
Every 2 days
I will run clean cycle at night because it takes so long.
I got so tired of yellow pit stains, no matter what I tried, I couldn't get rid of them. So I switched to a crystal salt deodorant stick. No more stains
This right here 🙌
I hate microfiber. It’s plastic and it sticks to everything when washing. I’d rather just take my time with cotton towels
Fair enough!
I hate front load washing machines. I just don’t think they actually clean clothes.
Ugh laundry🥴🥴🥴
new towl a day
Nice and simple :)
I love your videos and content but I'm not so in favor of microfiber vs cotton. Every time you wash microfiber you are releasing microplastic in the water and the environment. You can't also recycle them and who knows how many centuries it takes to break down microfiber. It can be superior to cotton but imagine how much microplastic we would be adding to our planet if we were all using them. So I use cotton towels, hot water and little detergent.
It's true, but unfortunately it also holds true for all the microplastics in our clothing that we wash without the same concerns.
