I have HE washer with a dispenser for HE liquid. Can I use this powder? In the dispenser or on the clothes?

Can you take the liquid dispenser out? We have a Samsung HE washer and the little cup for the liquid comes out so you can add powder in the drawer. I always put the soap in the soap drawer and have not had any problems with it. I guess I didn't read the directions very carefully because I never saw to put the soap straight into the washer :)

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

I have an HE and put the powder in the drawer. It does an awesome job on cleaning the machine over time. Any musty, moldy smell is gone.

I also have an HE washer and it tells you to put the powder directly into the washer, don't use the detergent dispenser. Works great for me. Hope that helped.

Yes. The owner if the lingerie shop where I first bought it told me it was safe for HE washers. I have used it for years in my HE washer. You only need to use about a tablespoon per load.

I have used both liquid and powder homemade laundry soap. We haven't had any problems at all, although we have only had the washer for a few months. I think if you have a low sudsing formula and use an appropriate amount, you would be fine (just like any other detergent.....you don't need much)

You just use one scoop and pour into the dispenser tray (my He washer is a Kenmore, made by Samsung). They use it for babies also because it does not have a scent.

I do not know what the manufacturer says about using it in the washing machine, but YES I often use it in the washing machine. Sometimes alone and sometimes with a small amount of fragrance free washing liquid. Do not use too much b/c it is so concentrated. I have even used it to wash my sheets so they will stay fresh in the closet. It leaves clothes very soft when you use it in the washing machine.

I have an HE machine and it didn't get my clothes clean, and left reside on my HE machine. The liquid works better, but contains harsh chemicals.

I have a HE washer so here's my recipe. I combine in an old 64 oz jug from juice etc. 1 1/4 c Sal Suds, 1 c baking soda, and the rest water. Add the water and baking soda first leaving room for the Sal Suds otherwise it will foam up when attempting to fill it up with water. Then just turn it upside down a few times throughout the day and you'll notice the baking soda disappears. it seems to all congeal somewhat. I then pour in enough to fill up the soap dispenser and add vinegar to the rinse cup. Been washing clothes like this for years. Doesn't fade colors and has been safe for all types of fabrics. Clothes do not have a strong fragrance after drying; they are just clean. I have a HE washer so here's my recipe.

It really depends on your washer. The one at my moms house worked perfectly - just tossed them in with my laundry and that was all to it. At the apartment I've moved in to, I have noticed they do not fully dissolve. So to solve this issue, I place the pods in the washer and allow it to fill with water 1/4 of the way and then I stick my hand in there mixing the water around, dissolving the detergent and some of the outer casing before adding in my clothes.

No, absolutely not. Nellie's washing soda is the detergent. If you feel the need to add something, use Nellie's Oxygen Brightener. Both products are all natural. My clothes appear cleaner, feel softer and overall smell much better than the traditional liquid or powder. Plus, it works for my front loader just fine. Hope this helps you.

I don't think so it can take either powder or liquid. Our machine is on a fishing boat we use it out at sea and in heavy weather, most washing machines can't handle that, so far so good.

Depends on the type of washer as to how much. If using powder detergent powder would be better.

Yes. The fine print on the bottle indicates that it can be used in a High Efficiency (HE) washer. I've been buying from Amazon and using it my HE washer for the past year with no problems.

yes I use this in laundry. It is the only thing I can use the way our water is. I never tried it on colored clothes of any kind but it does well on whites...just rinse it an extra time.

Yes you can, you might want use a half a cap of sport wash on your HE washer especially if you are only doing half load of laundry.

Dear Mocha: The laundry "SODA" is used to cleaning clothes, althought its chemichal content differ from detergents. Anyway NELLIES LAUNDRY soda IS A POWDER.

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.

In my machine the liquid cup come out and that's where the powdered detergent goes. You can also add it right on top of your clothing too.
