Washing microfibers with High-Efficiency Front-Load Wash Machines?

Hi Guys,

My wife & I just got all new appliances for our new house, which includes a new pair of high-efficiency front load washer and drier (Kenmore brand). When my wife was reading the instructions for the washer, it stated specifically that you have to use a special "high efficiency" soap with this machine (otherwise you have have misc. problems with the machine such as excess foaming, mold buildup, etc. all kinds of issues). So of course she's thinking oh great she can't use all this regular Tide she had bought, meanwhile I'm holding back the urge to scream because my first thought was how am I going to wash my microfibers and mitts, etc.?

Does anyone have experience with these kind of washing machines and whether or not you could still use a MF-specific soap like "Micro-Restore"? Or have people successfully washed their detailing items using this special high-efficiency soap that the machine seems to require?

Thanks!
Jason
