Why You Should Never Use the Quick Wash Cycle

1. It Doesn’t Clean Deeply

The short duration means detergent doesn’t have enough time to penetrate fabric fibers. Stubborn stains like sweat, grease, and food residues are often left behind, meaning you’ll need to rewash items anyway.

2. It Can Use More Water and Detergent

Contrary to what many believe, quick cycles often compensate for less time by using more water and detergent. This cancels out the supposed savings on energy and resources, and in the long run, may even increase your utility bills.

3. Tough on Fabrics

Because the machine has to “work harder” in a shorter period, the spin speed and agitation are more intense. This can cause delicate fabrics to shrink, fade, or wear out faster, shortening the life of your clothes.

4. Poor for Heavy Loads

Bulky items such as towels, bedsheets, or heavily soiled clothes need longer soaking and mechanical action. Quick wash cycles simply can’t provide that, leaving large items only partially clean.
