Does a Front Loading HE washing machine get the BumGenius Diapers clean enough?

I have developed a system in which I run it on quick rinse cold, quick rinse hot, with rice cold with extra rinse and it works perfectly. I could give more details if needed.

It's very low sudsing. We have to use commercial laundromats. No front loaders around here But I think it should work. Our pump also works great like the other person that answered. It's a fantastic detergent.

I have not washed mine, I will say it is a lot of bedspread I feel for a regular washer. It would fit in a front loader. Hope this helped.

You have to wash the prefolds every time. You can get several diaper changes out of a cover, until you get a major poo. The rule of thumb is 3 or 4 prefolds for every cover. PS The econobum prefolds are my favorite so far. The cover is so-so.

I have a front loading machine, and, yes, I just unplug and toss it in. I wash mine in cold water and tumble it dry. Good to go!

I've used this and the liquid version in my front loading HE washer and the diapers come out clean. Sometimes the liners will stain, but there is never any residue or ammonia smells leftover. Be sure to follow the recommendations for washing cloth diapers in whatever kind of washer you have - high efficiency washers often need alternate settings for cloth diapers since you will want more water for them.

I have washed mine in the machine, but I had to go to laundry mat it required a huge washer because it is so big.

This is totally up to you. I use cloth, but they must be washed with a rinse, then a wash, then a rinse cycle and I usually do a load every 2nd day. Then I try to spend every 4th day doing a few loads of other laundry before the diapers. Are there enough machines that you won't be stuck without a washer when you need to do laundry?

I will take the liners out of the diapers but wash them all in the same load of wash. That way I know both parts are getting clean.

Yes. You put the diaper insert into the diaper and remove them before each wash. I personally love pocket diapers, but if you're looking for on that just sits inside the cover, I'd look into Bumgenius Flips.

I use a front loading HE washer. I don't use it for my delicates because I don't want the friction from ball on my silks. Everything else is still working great. My towels are not having residual odors from souring or pets. I continue to like this product.

Basically one washing machine load. I did my 3x Carhartt coat in my front loader and could have easily fit 2 or 3 pairs of pants in there too. Just be sure to run an empty load first to get all the detergent residue out of the washer first.

No, You just reach in grab one and drop it in the washer. It does the rest for you. Make sure to keep them high enough out of kids reach. Hope this helps :)

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 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.

Yes, I wash it in the same load as all my diapers then line dry it. It has held up fine and works great!
