Washing at 40 lots of opinions plz!

i split the nappies and do fitteds and inserts at 60 and wraps and pocket outers at 40 with an every-once-in-a-while 60 for the pockets.

I always wash nappies at 60 as 40 just doesnt smell clean. Also do the same with duvets, towels and tea towels.
Whites & bedding gets washed at 40 and all colours 30.


ETA; our wonderoos v1 are 3 1/2 yrs old, and still going strong - no problem with washing at 60

I always washed nappies at 60'C with no problems. I also wash bedding and towels at 60'C with clothes being done at 40'C.

I'm not a clean freak, but I always wash underwear at 50 or 60 after reading once about how much fecal matter and bacteria is left when washed at 40 even if you never see a mark on them So it's even more important IMO for nappies as they obviously get poo on them. So in this house nappies, underwear, towels and bedding all get washed at 50 or 60. Actually after reading this I'm thinking 50 isn't enough and I should always use 60

Just while thinking about it too, I washed clothes at my mums last week on 30 and non of them were clean enough and had to be washed again at 40, so what a pointless waste that was

We always wash at 40, unless DD has a tummy upset, then we wash at 60 for a couple of washes or until she is better.

I wash all my nappies at 60, did a trial run of washing them at 40 but even though we don't have hard water, they never seemed clean enough. My BGv3's are 3yrs old have never been out of use in that time, and the pul is fine, no leaking at all. Just out of interest, does anyone wash their mf bags at 60? Always done mine at 40 as care label instructions but would be great to chuck the whole lot in together. X

I wash mine when I wash my nappies at 50 and it's been fine

I always wash mine at 60. With our hard water they don't seem clean enough on a 40.

Clothes get washed on a 40 though.
