The quick wash cycle may be convenient and economical, but it is not suitable for all types of fabrics and items.

If you want to maintain the quality and color of your clothes, avoid using this mode for the following items.

Jeans

Denim is a very dense and heavy fabric, so it requires more time and water to clean thoroughly.

Also, quick washing can cause the jeans to lose their color and shape. It is better to wash jeans in cold water on a delicate cycle or by hand.

Wool

Wool products are very sensitive to temperature and mechanical stress.

Rapid washing may cause shrinkage, deformation or pilling of the wool. It is better to wash wool by hand in cool water with a mild detergent or use a special wool cycle on your washing machine.

Underwear

Lingerie made from cotton, silk or lace may suffer from rapid washing, as it can damage delicate fabrics and elastic elements.

It is better to wash underwear by hand or on a delicate cycle with low temperature and spin.

Sportswear

Sportswear made from synthetic materials such as polyester or lycra may lose its shape and elasticity if washed quickly.

Additionally, these materials can accumulate odors and bacteria, so they require a longer, deeper cleaning. It is best to wash sportswear on a normal cycle with cold or warm water and without bleach.

By using these tips, you can extend the life of your clothes and keep them looking good.
