Yes, you can use the product in a front load washer. You can add it to the detergent dispenser for overall brightness/whiteness and/or you can add some product directly onto the fabric, depending on the stain. You can also do a pre-soak and only add the product to the detergent dispenser and then follow with a normal washing cycle with or without adding the product to the detergent.

I don't have a front load washer, but here is what I would do based on the directions. The directions say that you should use White Brite and then use detergent without oxy or bleach afterwards. Since front loaders use less water, I would say you could use maybe 30% less powder and just add it instead of detergent. In my experience, you need to let it soak for about 20-30 minutes (which is what the directions say). What I do (with my top loader) is I open the lid every few minutes for a few minutes. Thus, the 10 minutes of agitation that my washer does with the "heavy" setting turn into 30 minutes. I don't know how your front loader works, but if there is a pause button or some other way of pausing that is what I would do.

I presoke my whites in a large laundry tub/bucket, then I wash in the washer. I too have a front loader washer.

I have a Samsung front load washer and tossed the product in. Each time, despite using HOT water cycle, the product left a goey mess on some articles of clothing. I ended up giving them away to someone who had a top loader and loved the product.

I have a Samsung HE front load washer and I put the Nellie's right in the washer with the clothes...it works great.

Yes you can but you can't use detergent at same time as the ball. If you have stains, use stain remover or add OxyClean type product to the washer.

Hi! According to the manufacturer directions - they do not recommend using this item in a front load washing machine.

I just purchased and installed the WM2016CW washer. As a complete newb to the front-loader universe, I set out to run the first load of laundry. I was rewarded with water and suds all over the floor. I called customer service in a panic and the rep told me I probably added too much detergent. Fair enough. Crisis averted. She then went on to lecture me that the WM2016CW is not meant to be used with liquid detergent (even if it's HE). She said it should only use powdered detergent. I referred her to the manual and LG's own website which explicitly state that you can use either in the machine. I'm not sure who to believe, but according to at least one LG customer service rep, the detergent of choice should be powdered.

I have been using it for years with my front load washer. Use 1/2 a scoopful. Also used it with my cloth diapers on the same machine - works great!

I also have a front loading HE washer. The soap nuts work great in it. You do need to use warm water, if using cold, soak the soap nuts in warm water first to activate them.

Not sure, as I have top loader, but it is a powder detergent. I'm not sure you can get it anymore. Just noticed someone else has commented that it is not OK in a front loader.

Yes, the instructions specifically mention HE. I use it in my side loading washer in the detergent dispenser.

I have a generous front loader and this monster won't fit in there. To machine wash mine, I have to trudge to the laundromat and use one of the huge washers. But, it is machine washable. The question is how big your washer is at home.

The instructions said to use in the washing machine. I believe you will be not get the full strength of the product by just soaking. Do not use with detergent.

I use this combined with powdered dishwashing detergent to save my dishes from scale etc. With a front loader it would have to be added before the door sealed. Contact the manufacturerof your machine

I have a brand new Whirlpool HE washing machine and on the inside of the top loader door it has clear instructions and it states that you can use liquid or powder HE detergent. ... That is for putting the detergent in the detergent dispenser in the machine.

If the washer is out of warranty or you don't care if the washer company might make a big deal of using a non-HE detergent, just keep using it. Don't use more than you need or you'll get sudsing that'll reduce the effectiveness of the cleaning. I've been using this in my last two front loaders that recommend HE detergents with no problems. I never use more than the first line on the cup for even large loads. If you get excess suds, use less next time.

absolutely, I have a frontloading washer, HE, and it worked great on our sleeping bags. Came out smelling really clean and the fabric felt great. Just be sure to follow the directions for the amounts to use.

Yes, according to the directions, you can use it in a top load machine. Just add it to the water, clothes, and detergent. Works well in my front load machine.
