Finding out tips and tricks for doing the laundry can make it all a bit easier - but how much do you actually know about the dos and don’ts of laundry? Take our quiz to find out.

Here’s what Fairy Non Bio has to say: “After decades of listening to scientists, parents, shoppers and children we think of ourselves as the laundry experts for families. But there is always more to learn! Share your dos, don’t and tricks of the trade with us so we can make sure our products are made for you!”

However much you think you know about laundry, take our quiz to find out how well your knowledge stands up to the test and share how you did on the thread below to be entered into a prize draw where one MNer will win a £300 voucher for the store of their choice (from a list).

Thanks and good luck!

62% - quite pleased with that score. I'm usually ok with the washing - although I have accidentally tumble dried and ruined a few lovely woollens in my time.Blush

Prokupatuscrakedatus · 05/04/2018 20:40

87% - I didn't know when the washing machine resemble thingy was invented.

user1508013898 · 05/04/2018 21:28

62% I totally wing it when it comes to washing

PrincessFiorimonde · 05/04/2018 22:56

87%. Got the O question wrong.

mummymummums · 05/04/2018 23:17

Ah poop - I got 62% but in my defence when actually doing washing I do Google symbols on the label if I don't know them

MissesBloom · 05/04/2018 23:22

75%...wayyyyy better than I thought I'd do! I do actually have the care symbols printed on a list in my utility room though and look at them on occasion Wink

nailslikeknives · 05/04/2018 23:52

87% - didn’t get the circle one right. Quite surprised I knew when the washboard was invented!

CadyHeron · 06/04/2018 00:08

Oh dear, I got 62%! In my defence, my Textiles lessons at school were a very long time ago and I was wracking my brain to try and remember what all the symbols meant --and failing! Grin
I knew damn fine where the red things aren't meant to go though, seeing as a rogue piece of red card in ds's school shirt pocket managed to turn the entire washload of schoolshirts a fetching pink!

I meticulously triple check all pockets now lol

ChestOfFields · 06/04/2018 04:09

62%! I usually just wing it and wash most things at 30° anyway!

JazzyJefff · 06/04/2018 07:44

kaycm25 · 06/04/2018 13:47

75%-though I'm surprised I got that.

Didiusfalco · 06/04/2018 14:19

I got 62% - basically just the really easy questions! A better score than I probably deserve too.

OfficeDictionary · 06/04/2018 15:02

Terrible considering how much of my time I seem to spend doing laundry Blush

Goingovertosusanshouse · 06/04/2018 16:03

ilovecake77 · 06/04/2018 20:14

87%....i spend far too much time on laundry!!!!

WindyWednesday · 06/04/2018 20:19

I got 100%

I disagree with a question, I thought non bio was free of biological enzymes and bio has biological enzymes.

The answer they wanted was non bio is good for sensitive skin. Maybe I’m being to pedantic.

Liskee · 07/04/2018 07:25

50%. I think I may need some laundry related help!

WishUponAStar88 · 07/04/2018 08:15

BuntyII · 07/04/2018 08:42

colleysmill · 07/04/2018 08:49

hannahphoenix · 07/04/2018 09:12

75%, i am awful at washing though! I just separate and use colour catchers !

Grobagsforever · 07/04/2018 09:32

Not this insipid nonsense again @JustineBMumsnet! This is a site full of intelligent, educated women discussing a myriad of important issues and you're posting a quiz about laundry?

The 1950's called and wants its advertising practices back.

Seriously- I know you need ad revenue but this is beneath you and us.
