I’ve never seen a machine that is this specific. This is honestly fascinating.

Wool shrinks/felts with heat and friction. The spin on a machine is perfect to getting all the water out since wool holds 80% of its weight in water. An easy way to wash wool is to place in a large bowl of lukewarm water, add about a nickel size amount of a conditioning shampoo (wool is hair) and squeeze gently, then let soak for about 10 mins - more if stinky, squeeze out or place on a spin only load in wash, rinse in fresh water until water is clear and squeeze again. Roll in a towel as another option to remove excess water, lay flat and reshape on towel or rack to dry. For ironing wool use a damp, same color tee/towel/pillowcase, make sure it is re-dampened and not dried out. This is a type of steaming that won't leave the wool shiny, especially at the seams and pockets. Hope this helps and thanks for letting me add my 2 cents :)

I grew up learning everyday things from YT but this video in particular is one of the best and most valued to me. Took a hectic topic and broke it down masterfully. I kept this video saved long ago and soon I am about to do my first laundry in-house. Thank you!

One thing I would recommend is to invest in a decent garment steamer. Great for removing wrinkles on all types of fabrics whether it be cotton, synthetic, or silk. I also use it to give my clothing a quick refresh between washes.

Great stuff! Also; for delicates I like to use washing bags. Especially when there are like large zippers (common now) or other accessories. It prevents damage from washing itself. Banging on the inside of the machine. Other items and the spin cycle. 👌

Tim, you get us! All these bafoons saying they know how to do laundry and shaming others when they don’t know what they don’t know (sorting by colors, temp, etc) thanks bud

I'm gonna share some things my mom has taught me... Liquid soap can be expensive so typically I use mexican powder soap like Foca, Ariel, and Roma. They sell in big 11 pound sacks and not a lot is needed for laundry and my clothes still smell good :) not sure if it sells everywhere, but I'm guessing they should be available in mexican stores? Oh and the good ol' bar of Zote, and it's safe for delicate skin too! My mom showed me that with clothes that are covered in grime or grease it's best to use Dawn platinum dish soap (ofc assuming the clothes aren't delicate) and put the machine on heavy duty and warm/hot water and it cleans it all out. Not sure if anyone needs this advice but I'm just sharing my knowledge 😊

Do not use fabric softener on towels! They absorb moisture much less effectively if you wash them with it. Also, if a piece of clothing stinks a lot (smoke, starting mold, etc), put white vinegar (or normal 8% vinegar will also do) in the fabric softener bin. This is a very effective way to remove smell. If something smells a lot, put in more vinegar than you would fabric softener and use the "extra water" setting to make sure your clothes don't smell of vinegar afterwards)

I want to add on some info between detergent types: *Powder* - better for hard water because softening additives are more stable in powder form. Use warm or hot water washes with powder detergent if you have very hard water. Great at removing carbon based stains. *Liquid* - required for "speed" cycles, better at removing greasy stains. Softening additives are often omitted from liquid detergents because these loose efficacy quickly in liquid form. Usable at all water temps and easily usable to pretreat laundry. *Tablets* - just don't...horrible in front loaders, cannot control dosing and 9/10 times you'll overdose your load. Take forever to dissolve so you end up with continued dosing during rinses. Most expensive and wasteful option. *Fabric Softener* - Fabric softener was created back in the day specifically for clothing made from synthetic fibers. It will build up on your clothing, is considered the most toxic laundering product since it isn't washed from clothing and has direct contact with your skin. As long as you're properly laundering your clothing it isn't needed. Save yourself, your clothing and the environment by skipping this all together.

I've been air-drying (after spin drying) my clothes for years, my family always attacks me for doing this calling me poor, but I still have cardigans, t-shirts, sweaters and scarves from 12 years ago in excellent condition. However, I never considered the weight induced stretching before! I will definitely make sure to lay out heavier clothes like sweaters on a flatter surface. I also use a more eco-friendly detergent with oxy clean booster, i add vinegar to detergent if needed (never mix vinegar and oxyclean!) I recently started to wash my precious clothes inside out and fold my knits/sweaters, it has been a game-changer! I bought a fuzzy remover recently as well, I only used it on my sofa but I can't wait to use it on sweater fuzzies! this was very informative!

Do not use fabric softener on towels. It makes them less absorbant. That's why rough hotel towels, washed at high temp and never with softener, are so absorbant

Oh he's cute!

After watching this video (months ago) I bought a metal framed drying rack from Amazon. It folds up flat when not in use (which itʻs mostly always in use). I never really knew about these before watching your video. My mom always dried clothes on an outside line, and on a wooden rack over the bathtub in the winter, for a few big heavy items that she couldnʻt dry outside. I love using my new metal drying rack! Iʻve put it in the garage where itʻs handy and drips donʻt matter. I mostly bought it so I could dry several hand-washed cashmere sweaters at the same time over winter, but I use it all the time for everything else too. Thank you for the tip! I think my electric bill has gone down since buying this.
