Question 1

My front load hE machine recommends liquid detergent. I'm wondering if these pods should go directly into the washer?

Accepted Answer

Jennifer, for all machines, remove clothing or other items from the washer. Open one pouch of OxiClean™ Washing Machine Cleaner, and pour into the washer drum. Note: Do not add any detergent to this cycle. Select the Clean Washer Cycle. Note: If your washer does not have a Clean Washer Cycle, add OxiClean™ Washing Machine Cleaner to drum and run a normal cycle using hot water. Start the machine. After cycle is complete, wipe any residue that may be left behind with a towel, including on drum, door, rubber gaskets, and seals.  Leave the door open to allow better ventilation.

Question 2

When I put powder directly in the drum it falls through the holes when the drum turns, before the water starts filling. Help?

Accepted Answer

That's the point. You want the powder to go in the holes. That's where the dirt and grime build up is.

Question 3

How is this thing different from the powder in the regular Oxiclean Stain Remover tub?

Accepted Answer

Ingredients for the Washing Machine Cleaner are identical to the regular stain remover except it has an added "Dispersing agent". Not sure on the ratios. So there is a difference, but I'm not sure how necessary it is.

Sodium carbonate - Builder
Sodium carbonate peroxide - Oxygen bleach
C12-15 alcohols ethoxylated - Surfactant
Sodium chloride - Builder
C.I. Pigment Blue 15:1 - Colorant
Acrylic acid homopolymer - Dispersing agent

Question 4

does this remove water stains from the machine?

Accepted Answer

Hey there, The purpose of OxiClean Washing Machine Cleaner is to help remove residues from the machine that cause malodor. We don’t have data on this product removing hard water stains.
