I think they are a lot more intuitive than the old ones, but I'd need to look up some stuff. I don't know what's the difference between normal, perm press and delicate for example. Or why the 3 knobs on the washing machine should represent it
The flask for bleach, and the drying symbols are much clearer though.
The detail in some is a bit too high for some clothing tags, I'd agree on that.
- semi-extrinsic 4y agoSpeaking of bleach though - when was the last time anyone here used bleach while washing clothes? I have never in my entire life done so.
- csixty4 4y agoI use it all the time. In fact I was staying at an airbnb recently and my hair dye stained all his towels and pillow cases (a week after I got it done!) so I gave them a good bleaching before I left and left them sparkling white.
- p_l 4y agoMaybe not regularly, as bleach is quite damaging to fabric and others, but often enough to have a bottle of bleach available in laundry room
- semi-extrinsic 4y agoOk, just to clarify, do people say "bleach" when the mean products containing sodium percarbonate (like Vanish, OxiClean)? Or do you mean actual bleach (as in sodium hypochlorite)?
- frosted-flakes 4y agoActual bleach. I typically use oxi-clean, very rarely use bleach. I've found that even the most severe staining/yellowing can be removed by soaking the clothes in the washer overnight with oxi-clean (something that's not really possible with front loader machines).
- p_l 4y agoWell, I mostly use things like Vanish/OxiClean, but there are times when I hit proper bleach - but admittedly that one is rare enough (especially since switching to coloured bedsheets) that I do not keep bottle of sodium hypochlorite on hand.
- leephillips 4y agoI use it frequently.
