Luther Plagmann: I think there was a Brady Bunch episode when one of the kids did this and suds came flowing out of the machine. I know it's just a T.V. show but dish soap makes lots of suds and laundry detergent doesn't.
Daria Verfaillie: You are going to have a hard time telling how much to use, and dish soap may produce more suds that could then come out of your washing machine. Also, dish soap can have harsher chemicals than found in typical laundry soap, so there may be consequences for your clothes and your skin later on . . .
Malcom Bourek: There is really no danger other than too many suds. But, your clothes will not really be properly cleaned.
Neville Dautremont: I've done it before and there's really no side affects. Just start with a small amount of dishwashing soap - mape 1/4 cup. Let the tub fill with water and once it's swished for a few minutes, check the amount of suds. Usually no where near what you think they might be and you'll have to! add more dishwashing liquid. Can even use hair shampoo if you're in a pinch!
Ariel Arons: No, just don't use to much or the machine will suds over , Only use about a Tablespoon.=)
Marty Tichnell: Unless there wasn't a store within an hour of my home, I wouldn't wash clothes with dishwashing detergent. I'd go to the store and buy some laundry detergent. :-)Dishwashing detergent is not formulated for washing clothes. And I'd be concerned that it wouldn't rinse out well.
