Can this be used to wash laundry; either by hand or with a washboard?

Yes, it can be used for laundry. I've heard of it being used directly in the washer, but I make a detergent that works better than anything I've ever used-- 1 cup each baking soda and washing soda, mix in 1/2 cup castile soap then 1 cup vinegar. It takes a lot of stirring (I use my kitchenAid mixer), but it turns back into a powder. I use 1/4-1/3 cup per large load and, man, are my clothes clean! Even dirty, sweaty work clothes and baby diapers come out smelling clean (not clean "scented", but actually clean) and they are soft because the vinegar acts as a fabric softener. People have complimented me on the softness of my fleece and don't really believe me when I tell them why!

I have heard there is a recipe for laundry detergent you can make with Dr. Bronners and washing soda and a few other things - I do not have the recipe - could you Google it? I know it makes a ton and is very cheap - a friend gave me a jug - it worked great.

I have washed mine in the sink with with mild detergent but I see no reason why you could not put it through the washer. It is a great product. I own several of them and have given them as gifts.

No. You can wash by hand some spots if you need, bat not In the machine , so I think to use it as a pad is not a good idea

I can see no reason that you couldn't hand wash them. But I cannot think of the other laundry I would wash them with.

You really need to have a huge washing machine that even try this. Anyway, I don't think it is machine washable.

I think it's size would do a wash cloth size. it's probably too small to do a hand towel

Esther...It can certainly be used that way...Good Question! I had just been using it to dry smaller articles of clothing rather than using a dryer. I'll try that as well!!

I wash mine by hand, but it may be OK in the top rack of the dsihwasher. I've never tried it.

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.

I've only washed by hand but don't see why not. It's a nice pot, not cheap.

It can if you get the small bottles. I wouldn't recommend this for laundry detergents. It's very small. I use it for food storage like cans, etc.

If you only have a couple of small items such as underwear, it is just as easy to use your hands. However, if you have larger items such as sheets, towels, and regular clothing it is easier and more efficient with the MobileWasher. I absolutely love mine.

I would use it for hand washing. Though all you would need is a tiny bit. It's very concentrated. We love it. No odors from chemicals. Clothes smell fresh and soft

i don't see any reason why not. there is no washing instructions with it but i see nothing to prevent cleaning. i don't think a washing machine would be needed either. some disinfectant spray on type and hang in shower to dry.

I have not used the product for laundry, so I'm sorry I don't know this directly, but I would definitely try it with an item you don't care about that is the same kind of fabric as what you would wash, and see what happens as an experiment.

It is very big and bulky. I cannot imagine it in a washing machine. Plus it is so thick drying it would be impossible.
