Is it safe for HE washers?

No. At least not for my Frigidaire HE. Ordinary detergent creates more suds, which do not drain properly, making the washer smell musty/mildewy.

I have this item and would not trust in washer. I believe the tray would be too large, unless you ran it by itself. They are not marked "dw safe".

Yes, it's safe. I have several, and put them in the dishwasher all the time.

Hi John! I use the soap as a part of my homemade detergent and I also have an HE washer. It works just fine for me!

I wrote to Downy at the contact email and just received this reply:"All of our laundry detergents have been thoroughly evaluated and are safe to use in homes with a properly functioning septic system. We know it's important for our consumers to be able to take care of their homes and the environment, too. For more information about cleaning products and septic systems, visit the American Cleaning Institute web site (search on "septic"). I hope this information helps."

Absolutely. Check the manual that came with the product. It tells youabout the parts that can be washer safe. Also, the company customer supportis very helful.

Absolutely! They come with small bags, in which you place the soap berries. They have caused no damage to our HE washer after almost a year of usage.

We use ours in our HE washer. Have been for a few months now. I did not see anything that prohibit use in HE washers at the time we bought it.

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.

There is about a half-inch of overlap on the side of the washer, you can't really see it from the front. So unless the side of your washer is heavily exposed that shouldn't pose a problem.

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 am sure it is very safe. I have used it on my floors. But let me warn you that on certain wood floors it leaves them looking very dull. Also it leaks terribly. I have been told to reset the filter and I have but the darn thing still leaks. I should have sent it back and I wish I had bought a different brand. I do not like mine at all and I would not reccomend this to anyone. Do youself a favor and check into something else.

Yes, perfectly safe for the dish washer, but all you really need to do is spray it off. But yeah, DW safe!

Probably, but it might be easier to just hose it off. I don't think it would hurt the washer but you would want to constrain the straps.

I guess you could if you wanted to, I wouldn't do that to mine. I can't feel anything that would be damaged by a trip through the washer. Dryer would be a definite no no though.
