Now that I have been using the stpp on my loads, it really has been working very well. The clothing come out with similar results as with the Persil pearls. Persil pearls clean so well that now I am wondering if there are phosphates in it. No where on the bottle can I nor my husband find where...

hi all I did some more loads with the stpp and I am loving it. Even the colored load looks so much better. Things start to look new again. They also feel cleaner. I don't think it's all in my imagination. I did use half the stpp this time from my first load. So its about one ounce stpp. No...

stan and gary Thanks so much for the advice. You may have a point there. My washer is fairly new, however there still may be a build up. I am using the unscented arm and hammer as I mentioned above for my kids with sensitive skin. I use tide liquid for the rest and Persil pearls for the whites...

Hi Stan I didn't use the oxyclean scoop. I am just using the 3 pound oxyclean container that I used up a little while ago to store the stpp. I actually used the two ounce scoop that my stpp came with. I used a full scoop. Till line one of my detergent is also two ounces. The load was not...

Hi, Cheryl I actually did not do any other loads yet. Saturday is my day off from laundry. I was so happy with the results however I had to re-rinse everything once they were dried. As I was folding the laundry my hands started to feel very irritated as if a burning feeling. I realized that I...

My technician was actually at my house for another issue and noticed my tub leaning more to the right which was causing the water in the tub to be uneven all around during washing cycles. He therefore actually unleved the ouside housing which created the tub to be more centered. It is about 97%...

hi stan I just looked it up on speed queens website. The average water consumption per load is 24.3 gallons. I guess each time it fills is about 12 gallons. I have no idea how to do the calculation for the stpp. Would you know how its done? My daughter's load just went into the dryer. I used 2...

Ok. I got the water level hardness for my area. It's 3-4 grains per gallon, and 60-70 parts per million. Anyone know how to interpret that I would appreciate it. Can anyone advise now on how much stpp to add to my top loader speed queen? Thanks again to everyone!

Thank you Cheryl for all your advice as well. I truly appreciate it. I do also stop and soak on heavily soiled loads. I guess you are using a powdered detergent if you are able to premix. I am using a liquid so I guess I can't premix. Just curious what detergent you are using? I do use liquid...

Thank you stan for taking the time to answer all my questions. I really appreciate it. I will try to find out my water hardness level, however since I don't know how to calculate it I will get back and ask once I find out. Thanks again.

Thank you for the responses for using stpp in my top loader. Cheryl, thank you so much for all your imput. I really appreciate the advice being that you have used it in a top loader non he machine. Tomorrow I will be doing a full load of dirty pre school clothes and I will add 1/4 cup as per...

Sorry for the misunderstanding. I was asking for an amount of stpp in my standard speed queen washer. Not a standard amount of stpp. Just thought maybe someone out there who uses a standard washer and stpp could give me some guidance. I guess it goes by my water hardness. I am new to using...

Can someone please advise me how much stpp to put into my standard awn542 speed queen washer. On a full load with the water level to the top holes in the washer how much stpp and detergent should I add? I just now put in, a tablespoon of stpp first, then added tide till line one. The water does...

Can you please explain what this glow test is for us that don't know yet? How is it done and what does it mean?

Is stpp safe to add to laundry detergent for people with sensitive skin? My son has very sensitive skin and I cannot use detergents with enzymes for his laundry. I use arm and hammer unscented. Now that spring is here he loves to play outside and gets very dirty. I was wondering if stpp can...

Funny, I don't know how that first picture got there. That's not my washing machine. That's from the first post.

I have a speed queen washer, and I had my plumber create a hook coming out of my hot and cold water inlets to create a warm rinse and very warm wash. I can adjust the warm water to come in however I wish by turning the bkack lever on the garden y attached to my hot water inlet. The gold piece...

Through research, I think I found the problem. On my speed queen dryer, there is a gap around the inside front panel and the dryer cylinder where the felt goes around. So much so, that I can actually get my fingers in there. I had no problem putting an undershirt in that space to test it. I...

Ea56, does your ge also start out with a fast agitation and then slow down like the other person said his does? My mom's 1980ś Kenmore does that.

Thank you for your imput. What is the difference on agitation speeds between the whites option and color option? Is there a difference? Funny you mention arm and hammer and tide. Those are the two detergents that I use. I use tide on my husband's things because he likes a scent, and the new...
