With the development of science and technology, the types and styles of washing machines are also emerging, and many washing machines are equipped with the function of "quick washing".
The quick wash mode is a washing program on the washing machine, mainly for light or daily changing clothes, such as underwear, shirts, loungewear, etc. This mode essentially completes the washing process in a shorter period of time, usually between 15-30 minutes, and is designed to save time and increase efficiency. However, not all garments are suitable for the Quick Wash mode.
Problems that can arise with the quick-wash function
1. Washing is not clean: The quick wash mode usually completes the washing process in a shorter time, which may lead to incomplete washing of the clothes due to the reduction of rinsing times, especially in the case of heavy or stubborn stains.
2. Damage: Because the fast washing mode generally consumes less water and has a short rinsing time, it is okay to wash a small number of small pieces of clothes, but if there are many clothes, they will be piled together, not only can not be cleaned, but also easy to retain detergent. This will have an impact on the clothes themselves, not only will there be a peculiar smell, but also cause it to feel sticky when worn, and if you wear this kind of clothing for a long time, it may also cause damage to **.
3. Shorten the life of clothes: When using the quick wash mode, the speed will increase, and the clothes will be stirred more vigorously in the washing machine, which means that the wear and tear of the clothes will be intensified, which will lead to damage to the clothing fibers, and then shorten the service life of the clothes.
When is the quick-wash mode appropriate?
1. Mild stains: For lightly stained clothing, such as underwear, shirts, etc., the quick wash mode can effectively remove stains and save time at the same time.
2. Daily change of clothes: For daily change of clothes, such as sportswear, home clothes, etc., the quick wash mode can ensure the cleanliness of the clothes, while maintaining the softness and life of the clothes.
3. Summer clothing: In summer, people are prone to sweating, and clothes may need to be changed every day. For these lightweight, lightly stained garments, the Quick Wash mode effectively removes perspiration and light stains to keep the garment clean.
When is it not appropriate to use the quick wash mode
1. Heavily stained clothes: For heavily stained clothes, such as oil stains, pigments, etc., the quick wash mode may not be able to completely remove the stains, and the regular wash mode should be selected to ensure that the clothes are clean.
2. Fine clothing: For fine materials such as silk and wool, the quick wash mode may cause wear or shrinkage due to high washing intensity. These garments should be washed gently to protect their texture.
3. Dark-colored clothing: Dark-colored clothing may fade in the quick-wash mode. To prevent the garment from fading, you can choose the regular wash mode and sort the laundry according to its colour.
How to use the washing machine correctly
1. Distinguish the type of clothing: choose the appropriate washing mode according to the material, color and degree of dirtiness of the clothing. The quick-wash mode is usually suitable for lightly soiled clothing, such as underwear, shirts, etc. Heavily soiled clothing, such as jeans, coats, etc., should be washed in regular mode.
2. Pre-soaking: For stubborn stains, the clothes can be pre-soaked before washing. This helps loosen the stain and makes the washing process more thorough.
3. Choose the right detergent: Using the right detergent can improve the washing effect and reduce the damage to the clothes. For example, for dirtier laundry, you can choose a detergent that contains more stain-removing ingredients.
4. Classified washing: Wash clothes of different colors, materials and dirtiness separately to avoid staining and wear between clothes.
While the quick-wash function can save time and increase efficiency, not all clothes are suitable for this mode. Understand the problems that the quick wash function may bring, and choose the appropriate washing mode according to the type of clothes, the degree of stains and other factors, you can better protect the clothes and**, and prolong the service life of the clothes.
