    Another Washing Micro Fiber Towels

    I have a 2 year old LG HE washing machine and I asked a indy about asking vinegar to the rinse cycle and he said not to because it messes up the three sensors.

    Maybe try rags to riches instead of free & clear + vinegar (if that's what you were doing or wanting to do)?

    Do it at the laundromat.
    It’s a shame a new washing machine can’t even handle basic things but what are you gonna do? Risk messing it up? It probably cost too much to risk it.

    So it can handle bleach but not vinegar?

    I use R-R with vinegar, but with what the repair guy is warning against, I don't want to end up buying a new washer. That's the way it goes these days, the parts to repair are so expensive its better to buy another washer.

    Re: Another Washing Micro Fiber Towels

    i wash (w/ microfiber detergent) in warm water with an extra rinse cycle (no vinegar needed), then into the dryer (no dryer sheet) on the lowest heat setting with the dryer balls. been doing this for many years with good results...

    I got to the laundromat and use the giant washer for $5 and do them all at once.
    the giant dryers are 25 cents for 10 minutes, a buck on low heat and they come out perfect

    Only thing i could read up negative is it might hurt the gaskets. Most things i read say it’s fine.

    If your worried though i wouldn’t use it. I doubt if bleach isn’t goong to hurt it though I doubt vinegar will.
