Come in if you use tide

How much do you use?

I am hoping it works for us. I am having stink issues after switching to Crunchy Clean. RnG worked great for us as far as stink but it gave my son a rash.

A little less than halfway to the first mark on the scoop. we LOVE it and will never go back. Both CC and RG gave us issues too. Tide even cleared up my sons ammonia burn

Halfway to the 1 line.

We use Tiny Bubbles for 99% of our loads, but when I start to get ammonia issues with our BG microfiber, I do one wash with Tide and it clears it up. I go about 3/4 of the 1st line, along with HOT water and bleach. If it wasn't for the ammonia, I'd probably do what the other posters are saying with 1/2 the first line.

I go about 1/3 of the way to the first line, I have an HE machine and that seems to be plenty. Any more and they come out way too flowery smelling.

I am only CDing part time right now and only washing prefolds and covers in small loads so I use about 1/3rd to the one line. Clean, no stains, no stink. Still absorbent, no rashes.

We have VERY hard water so I use up to the 1 line. We use a frontloader with Tide HE.

We use Tide HE in our front loader. I use a heaping tablespoon and a half or so? I don't use the scoop that came with it. I tried using the recommended amount once and had to rinse my diapers way too much.

Our Maytag repairman says to NEVER use the recommended amount of detergent on any load. As a rule use 1/2-3/4 of the recommendation, less on an HE. Detergent companies recommend too much so you have to buy more frequently. Using too much is not just bad for your dipes, its bad for your machine too!

I use one of the scoops that comes in formula. We put 2 of those scoops. It's easier for DH if I need him to do laundry.

Somewhere between 1/3 - 1/2 way to line 1. About once every 2 weeks I do an extra wash cycle with no detergent to wash out any build up that may have been building up. DOn't know if I need to but I do anyways.
