Each washing machine is equipped with a quick wash mode.

Most people find this very practical as it significantly reduces washing time and uses less energy.

The fast mode also protects parts from accelerated wear.

However, there are a few nuances regarding this type of washing.

Not suitable for every type of fabric

This washing mode is intensive, so it is not suitable for wool or thin fabrics.

There are other modes on the washing machine for this purpose.

Towels

To wash towels, bed linen and all other items that absorb water well, you need to select the appropriate mode so as not to damage the household appliance.

Before washing, water is collected in the drum, which is very well absorbed by the towels, which is why they do not have time to evenly distribute themselves in the drum. Therefore, the towels turn into a lump, which hits the walls of the drum very hard.

This way, you can break your washing machine very quickly.

Low efficiency

It is not possible to wash out difficult stains during the quick wash cycle.

Also, with a reduced wash, the water heats up faster, so in this mode, washing at 30 or 40 degrees is usually available.

At such a low temperature, the fabric is less susceptible to damage, but it will not be possible to kill dust mites and bacteria.

If you often wash things on an accelerated mode, then an unpleasant smell will come from the machine, this happens due to bacteria, they accumulate in the drum, on the rubber seals. To avoid this, you need to wash things at high temperatures.
