Hi Richard,

I live in the Orlando area and work at a Disney reort. Where are you staying? how long?

A friend of mine uses the Sun powdered products and likes them. I am a Tide Liquid only person.

Mike

Foca powder.  Mas Darks/Oscura liquid (for black/dark colors).  Large choice of softeners.  Depends on what an individual WM carries.

Im staying at the old key west resort we are here another week.

We ended up buying gain original powder. It seems good. The machines are Maytag front loaders with a 35 minute wash cycle which isn’t long enough lol

Pretty common for laundromats nowadays.

Thirty-one to thirty-five minutes is about standard for "Normal" these days when it comes to laundromat machines. The SQ washers at our local say "31" minutes but often cycle is done at 30 minutes and timer just clears/door unlocks.

Needless to say for badly stained and or heavily soiled washing no, cycle times aren't long enough. Especially if counting on enzymes and oxygen bleach to do their jobs well.
