An important thing about laundry: if you're doing a whole lot of laundry in a top-loading washing machine (like at your mom's house), you have to treat the machine a lot more gently than laundromat side-loaders, where you shove all the clothes you can in and hope the door locks when you jam it shut. You aren't supposed to overpack or overfill a top-loader. if you do, it will either be unable to drain or possibly overflow, or something else bad. you should leave the two top rows of the little airholes in the sides of the drum exposed.
There are two types of people in the world- Side loaders, and top loaders. Side loaders are more hardcore. I will always prefer side loading, even if that means passing up free laundry at my parents. ( sometimes )
