Having used Woolite with cold water on clothing and towels, I would never go back to detergents.
We have been using Woolite in cold water for all of our clothes and towels for over 3 years. Previous to this, we used the usual name brand laundry detergents  and either warm water for colors or hot water for whites. In time, colors faded, tee-shirts became shorter, towels were less absorbent, etc. This was all accepted as the result of aging fabrics. Woolite was only for hand washing delicates in cold water, right? We thought clothes just wouldn't get clean if we didn't use either hot or warm water washes.<br /><br />I read an article about using cold water for laundering clothes that stated hot or warm water was not necessary. The article suggested Woolite for a laundry detergent and white vinegar for softening. Having used standard laundry detergents and fabric softener for over 40 years, this was a totally new concept for me, but I decided to try it.<br /><br />As mentioned earlier, I have been using Woolite in cold water for all of our clothes and towels for over 3 years. What I have noticed is t-shirts I have bought since have not shrunk, faded, or become misshapen. Towels I bought over 2 years ago still look like new and are just as absorbent, if not more so. By using white vinegar as a softener, everything seems even softer than it did when I used fabric softer, and nothing holds wrinkles or creases.<br /><br />In addition to all of the benefits mentioned, washing in cold water saves energy since the water does not to be heated, and vinegar is much less expensive than fabric softener. Personally, I would never go back to the old way of laundering clothes and towels.<br /><br />I hope this review was helpful for you. If so, please click the helpful button.
