    To check the temp, you could feel the water as it was running out of the machine IYKWIM. My electroulux front loader rinses with cold even on a 60degree wash, so clothes are never warm when i take them out.
    Like you say though, on the tag it says hot wash...... so shouldn't matter.

    My bumG's have been washed on 60 degrees on a long cycle and are fine. (7 months old) I agree with Raven, drop them an email, you never know you might get some newies!

    Thanks. Glad to know I don't have to change my washing routine.
