Can I use HE laundry soap in my new Speed Queen top load washer without causing any harm?

Yes. Almost all detergent is now marked HE. We are using it in our washer and have been for weeks in our older one we just got rid of. Additionally, the new HE detergent is made to have less suds, since the new washers use less water and more enzymes to break down the dirt. So you would only need to be concerned if you had a new HE washer and put too much soap in your wash, as your clothes wouldn't be free of the soap at the end. The main thing we will all notice by using HE stamped detergent is less suds in our traditional top loader.

I don't see why you would need too, just rinse it well after use. If you did want to anyway, they are pretty tough and would most likely be fine in the washer.

No where on the label does it suggest using in laundry. It is highly concentrated and there are warning about getting it on your skin. It is great for sanitizing floors, bathrooms, counter tops. I don't think I would use it in laundry. Wait, I just called the company and they said "after filling the washer with water add one cup of this product". Seems excessive to me and should be used in a top loading washer. I hope this helps. They said this was on the label but it is printed too small for me to see it clearly.

I'm not sure. I haven't been using any soap, just rinsing with hot water and letting the components air dry before I reassemble. Hope this helps.

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.

Sorry for the delay in my answer, but I was away until today. As to your question, YES - it absolutely will work in your front load HE washer. I have a top load HE washer & I cannot speak highly enough about Seventh Generation soaps. They do a terrific job, especially in a HE washer, whether top or front load. You cannot go wrong with Seventh Generation products - you will be very happy with them. Regards, Georgie

No don't use it in your laundry soap. I've tried everything and oils make spots on your clothes and don't contribute to the smell that much. Message me back if you want more advice. I have been doing laundry soap for years and I have a great recipe.

Yes. Use only a mild detergent in the washer and low heat setting in dryer but do not use a dryer sheet.

No, it is your detergent. It is also HE compatible for front load washers. They work great and laundry smells so good.

You can use the Dish washing soap is fine. We have have been using it since we bought and everything is fine.

I say that you can... I've washed a twin comforter in mine with no problem. It pretty well filled the tub and that's all I washed in that load. Please note that if the washer is the least bit out of level, it will wobble and even "walk" across the floor. This is a pretty heavy load and the spin cycle is a speedy 700 revolutions per minute. Also be sure to use HE detergent and maybe just a wee bit more than usual.

Yep! We got an LG HE washer and I use soapnuts instead of store-bought detergent. For a full load, I put a handful of the nuts in a clean sock, the tie it and throw the sock into the washer with the laundry. Wash with warm water then rinse with cold water works best, but washing with cold water works fine too. I just love the smell of my laundry afterwards...a light but very refreshing smell!

No, fine for both types. I use it in my non HE washer.. its just low sudsing.

Yes! I put mine in my washing machine with cold water and a light soap. Just do not let it spin! I let mine soak for a while and then took it out to air dry then drained the washing machine. It helped get some of the slick stuff off the top.

There is a halfway mark for the soap. I do half of that for a full load. I use a HE washer. Anything more and it develops stink issues from detergent build up.

I honestly don't see how it could hurt. I have a(n) he machine and I like adding some of this because I think it helps the regular detergent (or pods) clean better. It also helps a bit with that smell he washers can get. Evidently a lot of people use it to make their own detergent by combining it with other things- I was impressed by all the comments on that.

I don't know for sure but I don't see any reason why you can't. You put the smelly wash in the detergent receptacle run your hottest cycle for 2 minutes then you shut it off and let it set all night. The next morning you turn back on to complete cycle. To keep it smelling fresh use it once a month run a complete cycle. If you can use it in a dishwasher you probably could use it. Hope this helps. love this for my front loader and my daughter loves it for her washer.
