Maintaining the pristine whiteness of white bedding can be a challenge. However, a recent Reddit post seeking advice on this very topic has sparked a flurry of responses from individuals eager to share their tips and tricks for keeping white bedding looking fresh and clean.
One Reddit user said it is important to consider factors such as water type, choice of detergent, and fabric content in influencing the whiteness of linens. They suggested using Tide Original (powder) and no more than two tablespoons of detergent. For dealing with marks or stains, they advised pretreating and washing in cold water to prevent setting the stain.
Another user with white sheets and a white comforter and three dogs shared their cleaning routine. They wash weekly using vinegar, laundry soap, and warm water. For spot cleaning, they use an oxy-clean spray. They also use the ‘soak’ option on their washer and have them soak for an hour or more if needed.
Numerous other Reddit users chimed in with their own cleaning tips, highlighting the importance of using the right detergent, pretreating stains, and washing in cold water.
