Can you use a homemade detergent for this washer? null

Hello cMAND, Thank you for reaching out and letting us know your inquiry about using a homemade detergent for this Samsung washer. We understand that this information may be essential for you.

Use high-efficiency detergents such as Tide HE, Wisk HE, Cheer HE, or Gain HE*for best cleaning results. High-efficiency detergents contain suds suppressors that reduce or eliminate suds.

Yes, you can use homemade detergent in the washer.

Yes, you can. I use my own mix of powders with vinegar as a fabric softener. You can do the same with liquids as well. My clothes have not turned out any different than with commercial detergents.
