Martin,
This guy is really entertaining and fun to watch. Thanks for the videos!
I will be interested to see if our own Laundress disagrees with anything he has said.

The Laundry Guy
I don't think I will waste much time watching this, It is sad that someone like this gets put on TV when there are so many better qualified people, I am sure a few of his tips might work for a few problems people sometimes have, but really spraying Voka on every thing, use the 30 minute quick cycle for most washing, using soap and only a tiny bit [ in Minnesota's hard water ] and be sure you get a dryer that weighs the load for more accurate drying ??? the guy often does not know what he is talking about.
He means well and found some attention with suburban housewives at the Mall-Of-America but it reminds me of what Tiny Tim did for music, I don't think he will even become as famous.
Yes and if Laundress come out of hiding she would be so much better on giving real advice on how to actually peoples weekly laundry CLEAN.

So manufacturers are now coming out with laundry equipment
That have scales on them? Kinda like the Westinghouse thing?

Where does he mention dryers with weight sensors? I didn't find anything in the three vids linked above ... but could have missed it.
Launderess...
I’d love to see a show hosted by Launderess. Keeping laundry practices real, practical and correct.

He's not that bad...
<span style="font-family: helvetica;">He's not exactly unqualified to speak on this topic as he has a background in Textiles according to what he has said. He found a niche and he's making some money at it. You can't hate him for that.</span>
<span style="font-family: helvetica;">I've listened to the three and some of what he said are things I've learned through other sources that work well and I use often. </span>

Dryers That Weigh Clothing
Hi Glenn, It is in a piece he did with a real estate sales lady from an Edina Minnesota where she is hacking a house while he is giving laundry tips, He is standing in front of a new pair of MT FL W&D pair.

Did you guys notice the '56 to '59 (or thereabouts) Hotpoint washer in the first few seconds of the first video? I wonder who's machine that is?
I'll pass thank-you. With all the members here, esp. Laundress, we could teach him a few things or two. Seriously!!

1Tbls of soap!
For a full load??
I guess there not much chance for the soap to react to hard water minerals... cuz you ain’t putting enough in the load to anything!
He said he didn’t like OxyClean cuz it had Borax in it.
Since when? It has washing soda, not borax.

Sorry, but I wouldn't spend much time on this. I caught a few minutes of his first TV performance and while he may have some knowledge about textiles, I didn't see anything groundbreaking or really informative or at least even remotely entertaining. Our own Laundress and most of us for that matter probably would be more informative and entertaining. But then, I have no use for many of what passes for "reality" programs on TV today- seems like everyone has a gimmick for their 15 minutes of fame. I would echo what John pointed out - this guy is to laundry what Tiny Tim was to music.

Tough crowd...
<span style="font-family: helvetica;">Jeez guys why all the hate? Yup, he’s a little quirky. Aren’t some of us just as quirky? Is he too gay? Aren’t some of us a little too gay too? He does seem to know what he’s talking about in many areas. Is he the ultimate authority? Hell, I don’t know. The way I operate when it comes to something like this is I’ll try his suggestion and if it works I’l use it again and maybe pass it on if it doesn’t I don’t.</span>
<span style="font-family: helvetica;">He’s turned his knowledge and quirkiness into a source of income and who can fault him for that? We have enough people hating us because we’re gay do we really need to do it to each other?</span>

Guess is the typical format where they talk a lot of crap and they basically don't know what they're talking about.
They do the same with cooking programmes.
Methinks usually these folks are the cousin or a friend with benefits of someone managing the channel and they put them there just to have them doing something, giving out questionable recipes or advices.
Like who knows saying that vinegar and washing soda makes a wonderful combination in laundry and call it "laundry bomb". I mean, the typical person today is as oblivious as them so you can tell them anything.

I’m not hating on the dude
I just question the chemistry.
Why only 1 TBLS of soap?
Heres a box of Chipso soap than indicates using by the cupfull!
