One thing to watch out for is that you are not supposed to use color catchers in a front loader. Not enough water. I had been using them in my old top loader machine. When I got my new front loader, I did a load with a color catcher as usual. The color catcher caught the color (say that fast 3 times) but when I took the load out, the color catcher was plastered against a light colored garment and had deposited the color onto it. I'm guessing during the spin cycle. Anyway, if you read the box they say not to use them in a top loader. Earlier this year I started using Retayne. An inexpensive and effective remedy.
