In the reviews, people that cloth diaper suggest using only half a scoop. Is this for a large (full) load?

I have been using 1/2 scoop since I've been using this brand and its worked great for our cloth diapering.

I have a front loader washer about 10 years old. The scoop that's provided in the country save box there's a line showing the halfway mark. I wash usually about 20 pocket diapers with microfiber inserts and use just under that halfway mark. Yes in my opinion a half a scoop would be for a large load with a front loader.

If you have an HE washer, the box recommends you use 1/4 of a scoop. When I washed cloth diapers in my HE washer (full load) I used 1/2 a scoop and did 2 extra rinses after the wash cycle to be sure it was all out. I can't speak for washers that aren't HE.

I cloth diaper and use this detergent. I use a full scoop in the rinse cycle and then 2 full scoops in the heavy wash cycle. I have iron rich hard water. I've heard that this detergent doesn't work for all. But it works fine for us.We have an HE top loader

I have a top loader and hard water. I use a full scoop with arm and hammer laundry soda for a full load. With that being said, I do a full cycle: soak, prewash, wash and then the 2 rinses.

I usually use 1 half a scoop or a little more, i hardly use the whole scoop.

I don't use a special diaper detergent on our cloth diapers, but regular Seventh Generation detergent. So, I washed the diapers in detergent and the pack in the same load. I did not soak. It seemed to work well.

Scoop comes with soap and one uses a scoop full for a regular load of clothes. Thus, I think a teaspoon full would be enough. Guess you would just need to try and adjust. This is a low sudsing product! Hope this helps!

I followed my friend's advice. She had twins and used these. start with 6, you will have more than enough. You don't always need to put them to wash every day, if the poop has not touched the wrap, you can reuse it. However, we did not use it for our newborn, she was too small, 6.3lbs. We started with 6, we are still using them and our daughter is now 6 moths old. They are great.

I typically pump 4-6 oz at a time so I only hook one side up with the bag, the other I pump into a bottle then dump the bottle into the bag- saves bags and the kiddo gets a "full feeding" from one twist bag.

You use 1 Tablespoon per load. I've had my bucket for nearly a year, and have only gone through half doing 6-8 loads/week. This is by far the best value I've ever seen, and with Charlie's Laundry Booster, you no longer need fabric softener, saving even more.

My baby is 7 months and I am still using the smalls overnight in my BumGenius diapers with the newborn insert behind it. I find it is not too bulky that way and it lasts 12 hours without soaking through.

Hi yes. It comes with a scoop. Sometimes I use less or more depending on the wash. I also have a HE front loader. I don't use fabric softner anymore either. My mom stopped by last night for more. She loves it too!

I use the clumping litter. I put a double good-quality trash bag in the bucket, then about 4" of litter in the bottom. This is enough for overnight and I empty it every morning. I generally just use this for night-time needs. I think about 6" would get you through 12 hours or so for one person. If you put more than that, it's going to be very heavy when you go to empty it.

I used this for cloth diapers as well. I added it to my prewash cycle (with detergent) then did a regular wash with detergent then an extra rinse.

I do not use cloth diapers, but I have not had any issues with clothing (mine or my daughter's) regarding the cream, e.g staining, sticking, etc. It is definitely thicker than other creams which is why I like it, but it takes some adjustment to find the right amount and usage for your child. I have tried a handful of other creams, but I always go back to Burt's Bees after a week or so. I highly recommend it.

We have a normal washer and we wash 1 load from each of the three compartments. We wash clothes about once a week and there are only two of us. I can't imagine a situation that would call for splitting each of the 3 compartment into 2 loads - even if each was stuffed full and overflowing. When I bought the item I just wanted something to sort clothes the way we do it: light, dark, and special handling. This item works for us but "6 loads"?, I don't think so. I hope this is helpful.

Yes - it's very low sudsing and works great in my front loader. For normal washes, I use one half scoop (the scoop is in the box) or a smidge more if the clothes are very dirty. For cloth diapers, I had an elaborate routine, you will have to play around with it and see what works for you. I did: "short wash" with 1/4 scoop of country save (to rinse out the pee/poop). Then heavy wash on hot, extra rinse with a full 1/2 scoop. Then I did an extra "short wash" with no detergent to be sure all the detergent was rinsed out. If you have a fancy model HE washer, especially one that you can force to use a little more water, you might not need to extra wash/rinse - lots of people get away with adding an extra rinse only, or possibly just two extra rinses. I just can't force my machine to do anything other than its very basic preset wash functions.

I have a front loader and I add it directly to the laundry. I use one or two scoops depending on load, no less no more. After eight months of use, I continue to love this detergent.

I always use the full scoop. Thought, I suppose you could cut back and experiment with less detergent.

Depending on the washing machine you have, you will use 1 scoop or 2 scoop per load. High efficiency machines will only use 1, therefore you will get 90 loads.
