What's with the 'machine wash cold, gentle cycle, tumble dry low' tags lately?

clothing care

I know how to properly care for my clothes. It's not like I'm wearing delicates everyday which I don't. The vast majority of my clothes are sturdy cottons and linens. Cotton and linen are the 2 sturdiest fabrics known to man in my opinion. That's why the normal cycle is aggressive for everyday fabrics.

normal cycle

The normal cycle provides warm temp, high spin, and normal soil along with accelawash on the washer and medium heat and normal dryness on the dryer. No harm done!

Exactly! They're gentle on laundry, even on the normal cycle.
