Can you use vinegar with a front load wash machine?

Question

I would like to use vinegar in my machine. Has anyone had great success doing this with a front loader? How much do you use? Do you pour it in the compartment that would normally hold fabric softener? Thanks.

Answer 1

No. dont do it, you will smell of fish and chips lol

Answer 2

you could but only a small amount and put in the soap area as the amount of water for the wash and rinses will get rid of the smell ................the fabric conditioner only goes in during the final rinse hence why you keep the smell

Answer 3

Sure you can

just don't put close in with it

unless you want to smell like vineger

Answer 4

Yes - White Vinegar softens the water and eliminates static in the dryer. For a full load I use 1/2 cup, 1/4c medium load and 1/8c small load. It is the best softener and inexpensive without leaving any odor.

Answer 5

use charcoal or baking soda, not the vinegar.

Answer 6

Yes, it works wonderful! Just use in place of the softener in the compartment and if you still want the softener, put it in the bleach compartment. Nothing will smell like vinegar, so it's safe for clothes. It's actually good for the machine, keeps away mineral deposits!
