how much detergent do I use in the Danby 1.7 washer?

I use about half of what I would on a regular washing machine, not a extra large tub washer.

You use less per load and it will theoretically cover twice as many loads as the regular kind. I personally usually buy the powder detergent from Seventh Generation. It lasts a lot longer and is just as good.

Label: "1.Use only oversized commercial front-loading washing machine with a rotating drum action. Do not use top-loading agitator style machines.2. Wash warm. Rinse cold on gentle cycle using 1/4 cup mild detergent. Use fabric softener in wash. (Do not use detergents with bleach.)3. Tumble dry at low temperature in an oversized commercial dryer.4. Alternative method: Hand wash in bathtub. Follow instructions as in #2.5. Bag must be thoroughly dry before being rolled and stored." So, it's high maintenance to wash this. But I think it's worth it. Label: "1.Use only oversized commercial front-loading washing machine with a rotating drum action. Do not use top-loading agitator style machines.2. Wash warm.

One gallon water, one cup castor oil, one cup Dawn dishwashing detergent. You can substitute for Dawn, but I like it best.

I have heard there is a recipe for laundry detergent you can make with Dr. Bronners and washing soda and a few other things - I do not have the recipe - could you Google it? I know it makes a ton and is very cheap - a friend gave me a jug - it worked great.

I just purchased and installed the WM2016CW washer. As a complete newb to the front-loader universe, I set out to run the first load of laundry. I was rewarded with water and suds all over the floor. I called customer service in a panic and the rep told me I probably added too much detergent. Fair enough. Crisis averted. She then went on to lecture me that the WM2016CW is not meant to be used with liquid detergent (even if it's HE). She said it should only use powdered detergent. I referred her to the manual and LG's own website which explicitly state that you can use either in the machine. I'm not sure who to believe, but according to at least one LG customer service rep, the detergent of choice should be powdered.

I don't have a front load washer, but here is what I would do based on the directions. The directions say that you should use White Brite and then use detergent without oxy or bleach afterwards. Since front loaders use less water, I would say you could use maybe 30% less powder and just add it instead of detergent. In my experience, you need to let it soak for about 20-30 minutes (which is what the directions say). What I do (with my top loader) is I open the lid every few minutes for a few minutes. Thus, the 10 minutes of agitation that my washer does with the "heavy" setting turn into 30 minutes. I don't know how your front loader works, but if there is a pause button or some other way of pausing that is what I would do.

Directions for how much to use are on the box. I find you do not need as much as it says. What ever type of detergent you like. Makes no difference.

Depends on how much you use per load. 1 scoop is recommended per regular wash load. 2 scoops for extra cleaning.

I've been using this detergent in my HE machine for years, and it works fine. For my LG 24" ventless washer-dryer, I use 1/4-cupful (that's the "2" line on the scoop, but using a 1/4-cup measuring cup is much easier).

Good question but it does not say on the container. When we bought our front load washer the authorized dealer suggested we use it. Here's the web site on Glisten http://www.glistencleaners.com/Washer-Cleaner-and-Deodorizer

It really depends on the detergent or shampoo you wish to use. I use Meg's Gold Class straight no dilution on the C setting for a pre rinse wash, then rinse off the excess dirt with a pressure washer(or strong hose nozzle) if I'm doing a correction. If it is just a maintenance wash, then pre rinse wash on C, then hose off, then foam on E, them mit while foaming and two bucketing, then sheet with no nozzle on the hose. Hope this helped you!

I have the same type of washer. I just put it in right after the detergent, in the same drawer. I know it's not the way the directions on the bottle say to do it, but I have never had a problem.

I use it in a recipe for laundry "detergent, so it goes into a gallon size container with other cleaners. A little goes a long way, so if you are just adding it to your regular detergent you would only need a table spoon or less and that would probably give you at least 50 washes. really depends on what you use it for.

I believe there were directions as to how much to use on the box, which I followed and I have an HE washer and was using it for baby clothes as well. I stopped using the powder and switched to Whole Foods liquid detergent.

to expand on your question: i'm now using less than a quarter of a cup in a top loading machine with warm or hot water and will probably cut back some more. i like using real soap flakes rather than detergent but it's expensive.

1800. That is with the nozzle dialed down to a fine point. Set to a 4 to 6 inch spray width it probably averages about 1000 to 1200 psi. Good light duty washer, but for stained concrete or siding, you may want to look at 2500 psi and up gas units. This is however a great little unit for washing cars or fences or the back porch.
