do i have to use a special kind?
Detergents with the he symbol on them.
i never knew there were different detergents for top loaders and front loaders until the other day, i never even seen detergent for top loaders before!!!! i think all detergents are for front loaders unless they say otherwise!! good luck!
This is annoying, but use detergents that have an he on the container. It is less intense than regular. If you use half of a regular dose, there won't be enough of the cleaner (according to the manufacturer...do I believe that; I'm not sure, yet). Almost all detergent manufacturers make an he formula.
high efficiency. It has a HE symbol on it. You need that kind b/c front loaders don't use as much water. Also 3x concentrate is basicly the same thing, so you can use that too.
