If it works for you, it works for me.
What wash cycle do you use? I used to use normal when a friend told me her father used to sell appliances at Sears and always counseled his customers to use the gentle cycle. Unless your clothes are very soiled it doesn't make sense to agitate and further stress the fabric.
I tried this tip out for myself and discovered it really works! Less pilling and stretching and way fewer stray threads. My clothes look newer for a longer time.
Also, turn them inside out when you wash. If you make a mistake with colors at least the inside of the garment gets screwed up where no one needs to be looking anyway.
