Has anyone used tiny bubbles on these shells? I emailed the company then found their "approved" detergent list but that one wasn't listed.

I wash these in regular detergent...we've been using these nappies since baby was 3mo. and my grandbaby is 9 mo..now....I don't think "tiny bubbles," detergent would have a negative effect on the product....hope this helps....

No I mix my own detergent for cloth diapers: equal parts of Borax, Washing Soda, (not baking soda) and Oxyclean. 1 scoop(tablespoon) for small load. I also put vinager in downy ball and add it to the load. This helps with odor and stains. Hope this is helpful.

we use tiny bubbles. it works fine. we hang these shells to dry after the wash, along with the diaper pail liner. they dry plenty quickly by air. only the prefolds go into the dryer.

I just wash them with my cloth diapers. I use Rockin' Green detergent. I will say that I used them as a barrier to protect the diapers from diaper cream and over time the liners became water repellant. I stripped them but it didn't help. Now when we need to use heavy duty, (not cloth diaper safe) cream I use flushable liners. I still use the reusable ones otherwise though.

Have you tried a different soap? I use Dawn in mine and it works just fine. As I stated before fill very slowly as it tends to get air bubbles and overflows if you fill quickly.

I did the standard wash with no detergent. Maybe too much detergent is being used? I had no problems with repelling water at all.

Mine were very absorbant after just one wash. What kind of detergent did you use? You don't use fabric softener in the dryer do you? I just use All Free & Clear and they worked great immediately.

I went on line for the "best" bubbles. Gazillion 2-Liter Bubble SolutionThis what I use. Great , lots and lots of bubbles.

You may try a heat gun carefully ,to much and it will bubble. I have never had a problem of this kind before. Why it happened is a mystery. If you mixed it well this should have not happened. The one way it may have happened is the parts were not equal,sometimes it may look equal but is not. I like to role to equal ball sizes as close of diameter as possible :-)

My unit does mist and does not bubble. Might want to contact the manufacturer on this one. When you find out please let us know. Good luck.

Get a Nature2 and powdered chlorine/or tablet floater This is no big deal, because its inflatable, and not a big permanent kind. I had a DreamSpa for years this size. Best way to keep it clean is not to use it as a bath tub. Rinse off before getting in.

I did a search and asked some people about a possible alternative and I was unable to find anything. Scrubbing Bubbles does help it eats batteries like crazy and goes through a lot of the liquid cleaner but in the end it does in fact help. If you do find an alternative please advise. Thanks

I toss mine after 5-7 uses, depending on how dirty and/or large the loads were. I've read that some people toss them when they get squishy and/grayish, but I rarely see mine get to that point, even after 8-10 washes.Mine rarely create suds, there may be a few bubbles that pop quickly but I've never had the same suds as the chemical/commercial brands. That being said, I feel like the nuts always have my clothes clean and fresh. It is an adjustment to seeing no "evidence" of cleaning agents but they really do work!

Yes, the washer photo on the package confirms it, I have used these and highly recommend them, I switched from the Tide pods back to my favorite detergent.

I used outside bubbles but they didn't float. Just kind of floated out for my son to pop while in the bath.

May we ask what detergent you used? It sounds like the dye from a colored detergent was absorbed. We will gladly replace the pillowcase. Please email us at customerservice@fishersfinery.com

I used the one from the manufacturer! I read you could use other bubbles but I chose to use the ones recommended at least for this first go round!

I e-mailed the company and asked the same question. They said it has more surfectants, so it may be a little more bubbly than the regular strength. In use, I didn't see a difference.
