Is this particular item okay for front loading washers, how much should I use for a normal load of a laundry and for cloth diapers on a front load?

I use this laundry detergent for clothing items around the house. I have sensitive skin and cannot tolerate it. I have a front load washer and it works fine. Since I don't have any babies in my house, I can't answer that part of your question.

The CS site recommends using 1/2 scoop for HE front loaders, diapers included. I have a Samsung HE FL. I do a rinse and spin cycle with some old wet towels, cancel the spin, extra rinse, cold/cold quick cycle 1/4 scoop, heavy hot, extra rinse 1/2 scoop then rinse and spin cycle with extra rinse. Sometimes I will skip detergent in the cold/cold quick wash. I check my cycles for bubbles and do strip them with Dawn regularly just in case. I think it is a bit harder to get it right with an FL than a TL. Hope that helps.

Yes. They include a scoop, you use half for a regular load (I think it's 1oz). For diapers, it depends on how many you are washing and your instructions. Mine said to use half the soap of the regular amount, so that's 1/4 of a scoop. But it was also divided between one cold wash and one hot wash. So that's 1/8 of a scoop for each. It s not that hard to calculate, it is equal to one teaspoon for each wash. Too much soap will really mess up your diapers, so make sure you sit down and figure it out.

If you have hard water be sure to use only 1/8 to 1/4 of a scoop and dissolve it well before adding your diapers! That is always plenty to get mine clean with no residue!

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.

It worked great with my old he front loader for cloth diapers. I used a full scoop in a high water setting with a pre-rinse and extra rinse. Our new top loader he wasn't so great with it and I had to change detergents. I used to love this stuff...easy, inexpensive and no rashes. Good luck.

I have been using it for years with my front load washer. Use 1/2 a scoopful. Also used it with my cloth diapers on the same machine - works great!

I have a front load washer and have washed it only once since I bought it. But it is fine I love it I don't even use a top sheet. Len

Absolutely perfect for cloth diapers. Stock up on clothes pins, but should work great. I just retract my lines at least once a week to help with the sagging. But, I will also use all five lines together to dry sweaters flat and other such items which is probably why I have so much sagging. Diapers shouldn't cause any issues like that.

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 an HE top loader; all you have to do is measure out about 1/4 cup and put it directly into the drum of your machine. Add your clothes and laundry soap as usual &#128522;

I don't have any experience with a front load machine. Mine is a HE top loader. The package instructions say to toss the Unstopables directly into the washer with the clothes. That's what I do. No problems for me.

I am not sure if it can be used in a front loading machine, but I have. There isn't any residual product left on the clothes. I have not experienced any problems as of yet.

Yes, it is designed to work for front loading machines. I use a front-load machine to wash my laundry. There's an Amazon reviewer who also testifies to Method 8X Concentrated Laundry for use in front loading machines. My only disagreement with the review here is that I think the pump works fantastically and I have no complaints whatsoever about it.http://www.amazon.com/review/R1OFH8KYRJ98JS/ref=cm_cr_pr_viewpnt#R1OFH8KYRJ98JSYou can also look up Method 8X Concentrated Laundry on Target's website where it will tell you this product is made for front loading machines.

Very wet and it is amazing how long it takes clothes to dry that way. That is why I bought a mini-dryer as well so for about $100 total for the washer and dryer, our family cleans delicates and daily wash when we don't have a full load in these units. The kids actually have fun doing the laundry and we leave the majority of clothes for our front-loaders. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002HT0958/ref=oh_details_o03_s00_i01?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I have the biggest size (bedcover) and I took mine to the laundromat and used their largest washer and dryer. I think it would be too much for a regular sized washer just because of the size.

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.

I have an HE front loader and I use the soap nuts. It works fine. I have not had any issues. I just make sure that I throw in the bag with the soap nuts first so it sits at the very bottom and then throw my clothes in.

I have a standard front load washer and I have washed these ( I have 2). Then line dried. No problem at all.

Yes, you can use the product in a front load washer. You can add it to the detergent dispenser for overall brightness/whiteness and/or you can add some product directly onto the fabric, depending on the stain. You can also do a pre-soak and only add the product to the detergent dispenser and then follow with a normal washing cycle with or without adding the product to the detergent.

You can put about 3-6 shirts/sweaters, depending on whether you're talking t-shirts or hooded sweatshirts, and then add some socks, washcloths, hand towels. Jeans/pants - You could put 4 in, but sweatpants, I'd put 3, and again add some misc little stuff. With sheets - a fitted & flat queen sheet can go in together, but unfortunately sometimes it seems to cause one of them to somehow get caught over the center "swish" piece. So I typically wash one of them & add a bunch of other small stuff. Not for washing pillows or blankets - though you could toss a throw in. It does a good job, but the thing I hate most about it is if you keep it somewhere when not in use & then wheel it to a sink to hook up to water, the wheeling isn't the most smooth in the world. This is primarily related to the leveling knob on the side, which can pop out of the frame a lot. So if your load is imbalanced with a bigger item (if ya can fit it), that helps level it, but then is a pain in the neck. It cleans well, but it's definitely a moderate size closer to the small side than large. Hope that makes sense!

I use one TBL per load in top loaders unless the stuff is very dirty. You will think its not enough soap because it's low sudsing but it is enough. The only front loader I ever used it on was a 3- load washer and I used 2 tablespoons and it sudsed like crazy.
