We are still looking at washers,want to really be sure this time to get a suitable one.The front runner right now is the Maytag Bravos.While looking at this one it says to only use HE detergent.
So there is no sense in stocking up on detergent until I see if in fact I buy this washer.
Do you really have to use the special HE detergent?

My HE washer was bought in 2002. It said use only HE detergent. the man who installed it said we didn't have to Just use less of the regular detergent. He said the HE liquid detergent is basically watered down regular detergent.

We have used 1/8 cup of the powder Deft from day one. No problems from the detergent at all.

We only use dreft because of allergies
