Laundry: How Many Loads Per Week In Your Household?
- Thread starter frigilux

Help Support :
Update: Ordered a 2-bag sorter (by Seville Classics) to handle the extra laundry now that I've reduced the number of loads washed each week.
Although I broke out in a cold sweat when it had twelve screws and spacers and all sorts of bars, it went together easily. A little wrench for bolts on the wheels and an Allen wrench for all the screws were included.
It's certainly more sturdy/substantial than the tired old plastic unit behind it. In fact, it's time to replace that with a 3-bag Seville Classics with the hanging bar, which gets used all the time.

From the list below I'll usually do around five loads a week. Some things (like workwear and bed linen) are done on a set schedule, others as and when there is a full load.
Whites - 60°C with prewash
Darks - 40°C
Workwear - 40°C with prewash
Jeans - 40°C
Towels - 60°C
Bed linen - 60°C
Kitchen/cleaning cloths - 95°C, prewash if needed
In addition, every few weeks I'll run a separate load of yellow and orange items, as and when enough accumulate. Prefer not to wash these with other colours, as I find doing so turns them a dull, sludgy looking shade.
Had my first incidence of cat puke on the bed last week, unfortunately I was still in it at the time. Trying to sort that out, while also getting ready to leave the house for a night shift, was not my idea of a good time. Guess I'll be buying a second set of bed linen in the near future too, just in case.

one of my cats could puke on demand! Every time I'd mop the floors she'd run around looking for a place to start. One time I scared her while she was trying to pump it up and she suddenly decided she didn't need to puke after all. My oldest cat now seems to always go for my shoes. She will come down off the back of the couch to find my shoes. Conniving little furballs!
