Lavash

Tip: Washing your laundry at hotter temperatures is a great way to kill more bacteria and keep clothes fresher. That single factor was found to be the most effective in reducing bacteria buildup by this study: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8231443/

That study has shown that all washing machines—old or new, used at home or in laundromats—harbor bacteria from skin, clothing, and water, even with detergent.

Remember, the fewer people who use a machine, the fewer germs your clothes pick up. Having a machine just for your home means you avoid the cross-contamination commonly found with shared laundromat washers. If you can't afford to own a set at your place or don't want to deal with repairs, washing machines can be rented out from local businesses.
