    Even if I wash them with hot water and cold rinse, my whites still end up dingy after a while.

    Strangely enough, it depends on what kind of detergent you use… and the length of the cycle. The biggest and best trick is to use about half of the recommended amount of detergent (yet another reason to dislike those “pods”). We’ve also taken to dumping a cup of cheap vinegar into the machine and running an extra rinse cycle with that mixed in. Haven’t finished the experiment yet…

    And we even buy cold water detergent to make them feel comfortable.

    If the water seems too cold, add an extra layer of clothes into the wash to insulate them a little.

    For environmental and cost reasons, I’ve stopped using warm the water cycle except on underwear and sheets years ago. No downside, as far as I can tell.

    Frazz, I know it’s not on, but I would still keep the business end of that trimmer away from the kid.

    Boil them in the wash and freeze them in the rinse. At least for undies.

    Of course! That’s the solution! Cold water detergent! So let’s hop into our Cadillac Escalade and burn some gasoline running over to our energy-sucking big box store and pick up some. They’ll have it in stock because they get supplied from big polluting factories via carbon-belching semi trucks. We’ll bring it right on home in the Escalade, burning more gasoline anlong the way, and put it in our washing machine that runs on nice clean electricity from that handsome fossil-fuel-fired power plant. We’ll be green!

    Frazz, that guard’s on backwards. The guard should be somewhat inline with the trimmer’s shaft.

    I have a top-load washer. I leave the lid open between washes. Prevents that moldy smell some washers get. I also add baking soda on occasion, but that’s just to help with the wash.

    I find that baking soda, cold water, and air drying almost always suffices.

    I have never heard a shirt or pair of pants complain.
