Ok, i know i'm not crazy but my husband just came home from work and i was putting laundry in the machine and he told me to add more soap because the clothes aren't going to be clean with just one capful! I said he was wrong that thats what is recommended and no one in this house has complained of clothes not being clean when i gave them to them after they were washed,dried and then folded! I told him that he could be in charge of laundry then,no wonder why when on the rare occasion that he does laundry that i seem to run out of soap! Is he right? i hope not-lol.

there are scoops inside every laundry soap. i think there is an appropriate scoop of soap on how many pieces of clothes you will put. i in my part like to see a lot of suds. here in the philippines they sell soap thatare in individual pouches that there are exact number of clothes you can wash with that single pouch. it is much easier to do that than thinking of how plenty soap you need to put. but on the other hand there are soap that has less suds than other. so it all depends on what kind of soap you are using. read the instructions at the back.

I have been a long time laundry woman (to three kids and one hubby)and one cap full is enough if it is concentrated and the wash load is not so much. The suds are not indications that they will be cleaner, i actually have detergents who boasts of less suds so it makes me easier to rinse out the soap but does the clenaing job to the hilt.
Have been a stay at home mom for 11 years now and have not heard any complaints (aloud that is ..lol) from my customers, or else they do the washing!

He is kind of right and kind of wrong. If u put really little and then add some more soap the clothes will get cleaner. But if u already have enough adding more won't help. I think one cup is enough.
