Some items can't be washed as often. SO if you have those garments (that's been lightly worn) that you want to re-wear but not fully wash, steam option is it
I recently purchased an Electrolux washer and dryer. The washer has "steam option" as well as the dryer. I use the dryer steam as I travel often and clothes I do not wear on my trip, I throw in the dryer with steam and the steam removes the wrinkles from being in my luggage. They look like new after being steamed. I recommend the "steam option" for the dryer. Steam option on the washer----not so much.
I bought Samsung Bespoke Ai I got 2 white shirts poured 1 full coffee on each shirt, left both shirts for 27 hours! I washed 1 shirt without steam and 1 with steam ! Both temp 60. Without steam did a really good job but could see a very light brown shade! But the steam 1 ended up white! Could not find any stains, shades or marks! Now when both was used at 60 my smart meter was on amber! When it was creating steam it was on amber too, which is not bad compared to Hoover washing machine if I ran those programs the electric smart meter would be RED!
Let me save you some time. This is an incomplete review based on a Consumer Report article, which covered efficiency. This video does not cover odor/sanitizing effects of steam.
I just bought a house and the washer has steam, I'm curious about it as we're leaving a place with clothes moths which need 120*F to die, my clothes are "clean" but we're using the move to ensure no moths move with us, can I use the steam to kill them? Will the steam heat all.my clothes?
Good Evening. Thank You for your video. Am considering an LG Steam washing machine. Question. Are steam washers ok to use on Lycra/cycling clothing? Thank You.
Of course. You have to boil the water, just like a tea kettle takes energy so does a steamer. Par for the course but I must say it’s worth it if you really need to sanitize, remove odor, get stains out, etc. it’s an OPTION, you don’t have to turn the feature on every time you wash. I use it strategically maybe 1 out of every 10 washes for the specific purposes it assists with. My personal experience has been it does clean better than no steam
Hi Tracey! Every washing machine is different. We recommend reading your manufacturer's owner's manual. Most steam washers use detergent, but not every machine is the same.
The steam hygiene option in a washing machine is designed to kill bacteria and remove allergens from clothing. Typically it operates at a higher temperature than a standard 40-degree cycle, typically around 60-65 degree celsius, and uses steam to sanitize the load. This increased temperature, along with the steam, is intended to effectively kill bacteria on clothing. However, it's important to note that not all washing machines have the same steam hygiene options and the temperature range can vary depending on the manufacturer.
Fully agree. But the most useless feature is the wifi connection, in which you can start your washing from your cellphone. I dont know anybody that would load their dirty clothes in a washing machine wait half a days just to push a button from your cellphone. All that bad odor attaches into the washing machine and you cannot get rid of it later.
I haven't used the "steam feature" on my washer but I use the "steam feature" on my dryer everytime I return home from a trip/vacation. I throw the clothes I didn't wear on vacation into the dryer and set it on "steam" and it fluffs and takes out all the wrinkles in clothes from being folded and smashed in my suitcase. Steam feature on dryer=yes, Steam feature on washer=not so much.
Haha americans put everything in the dryer and have such shitty top loading washers that washes for about 30 minutes and you are concerned about steam shrinking your clothes? Your clothes shrink and get damaged anyway if you put them into the dryer... Every clothing that is allowed to iron is also save for steam without shrinking.

Hello, Can i use the function of deep steam in samsung washer for my natural silk
is there a difference between steam hygiene vs steam? I have a Samsung washer that just has steam. Also does anyone know what temp the steam gets to?

Good Evening. Thank You for your video. Am considering an LG Steam washing machine. Question. Are steam washers ok to use on Lycra/cycling clothing? Thank You.
Hello! It is best to wash lycra in cold water. You can still use a steam washer for this and just not use the steam feature.
One has to ask if washers with steam use more electricity...
No need. Without even looking at the spec sheet I would absolutely say yes.
Making steam uses insane amounts of energy.
Of course. You have to boil the water, just like a tea kettle takes energy so does a steamer. Par for the course but I must say it’s worth it if you really need to sanitize, remove odor, get stains out, etc. it’s an OPTION, you don’t have to turn the feature on every time you wash.

Do you use detergent on this cycle?
Hi Tracey! Every washing machine is different. We recommend reading your manufacturer's owner's manual. Most steam washers use detergent, but not every machine is the same.
My LG washer has a steam cycle, so I gather the steam function is already built in? Model WM3600HWA.
Yes
Does steam hygiene wash safe for woollen coat
Are blankets good for steam?

Can I steam real fur and cashmere and hand wash items?

Thank you for watching :) We are so glad it was informational for you.
Does steam hygiene option at 40 degrees kill bacteria ?

@@BoulevardHome Thank you for your answer.
Looks like the benefits are not obvious & they can't be justified by the extra expense.
BS gimmick. Just another nonsense option to go bad and cost money. My Kenmore has been washing for 30 years and washes everything just fine.

Delicate my ass, all my clothes shrink.
Same
so this function shrink the clothes? I have this function on my washer machine but never used it.
@@arlokkkk If the fabric will shrink in "hot" water then----------------------yes they will shrink with steam.
Read your fabric labels. It will tell you weather to use cold, warm and/or wash in similar colors.
