HE washers are picky eaters. They use less water, so they need detergent that doesn't foam up like a bubble bath.

Quick answer: yes. Low-sudsing laundry sheets work well in HE washers. Put the sheet in the drum, not the dispenser, and use one for a normal load.

Why HE washers need low suds

HE machines use much less water than older washers. Too many suds can cushion clothes, slow rinsing and trip the machine's sensors.^†

In other words, more foam, more drama.

Are laundry sheets low-suds?

Many sheets are designed for HE. Look for an "HE" mark or a low-suds note on the box. We're designing Just 7 for HE machines.^†

Where to put it

In the drum, at the back, before the clothes. Not in the dispenser drawer.

How much

• Normal load: one sheet.
• Large load: two.
