I have a front load washer that saves energy with the water and electricity. I have found that my clothes are in need of softening up. There seemed to be a soap build up in them. I have a "rinse only" button on my machine.

I have a comment and a question :o)
1. Do you think that you are possibly using too much fabric softener? It can cause a buildup also.
2. When you use the white vinegar - how much do you use? And does it ever affect the color of your garments?
Hi. I'm really just responding to your mention of soap buildup in your clothes. Do you use the high efficiency (he) soap that is recommended by the manufacturer? I have a GE frontload washer and I always use the he detergent that was mentioned in the book that came with the washer. A repairman told me that 90% of his service calls on front load washers was due to using the same detergents you had used with your top load washer.
Vinegar in the liquid fabric softener slot! Vinegar takes out soap buildup plus is a fabric softener that is great if you have sensitivities to scented products. It is an old wives tale my mom told me & it really works. I never use fabric softener or sheets now.
Vinegar has not affected the color of any of our clothes & I only use a quarter cup or so per load.
Did you know that front loaders have a special type of detergent to be used. The regular detergent has fillers.
Today, we now have capsules that are pre-measured for each load of laundry. Any solutions for that.
