They do tumble dryer sheets (also made by fluffy) but they are comletely different to the tpre you get in the Uk, they are quite thick but do the same job.

Best powder I have found is spree but I use 2-3 times what they say to use and disolve it before putting any washing into the machines otherwise it doesn't wash properly, this is probably down to the fact that top loaders are crap (in my opinion please dont argue)

Yes, I agree with you - we used a 'top loader' in our first rental over here - it was as you say 'crap'! Quite a few Australians dont like them either so i've found out, thats why there is more of a choice in front loaders at all your major electrical chains.

Will have a look for 'Comfort' but to tell you the truth, just got a bit fed up trying to find stuff I used in the UK, so have changed to the ozzy brands, which, now I've found the right ones after many trials, are pretty good IMO.

Funny isn't it, a thread about washing machines, powders and softeners
Made me smile anyway!

Time for a holiday I'm thinking

As for waching powder I use Hurricane which is a liquid powder if that makes sense and for the conditioner I use fluffy. Did not know they did tumble dry sheets though will have to look harder next time im shopping. :-)
