Is washing clothes by hand the same as using the delicate cycle of a washing machine?

and when clothes say warm wash, what if you use cold wash instead.. does it not wash properly?Is washing clothes by hand the same as using the delicate cycle of a washing machine?
Washing clothes by hand is not the same as the delicate cycle on a washing machine. Delicate is delicate but its not as safe as washing by hand.





You can wash clothes in cold water that say warm wash - it will not hurt anything.Is washing clothes by hand the same as using the delicate cycle of a washing machine?
No, washing clothes by hand is not the same as using the delicate cycle of a washing machine. A washing machine, is still a machine, and is not going to be as careful with clothes as you. It cannot detect studs on a shirt or jeans, or delicate material.





If clothes say wash warm, it would be better if you did that, but using cold wash won't really affect it. The clothes will still be clean in the end.
It's not the same but I wash all my hand washables in the delicate cycle of the washer and have never had a problem. As far as the warm verses cold. The warm may wash a little better but not enough to make that much of a difference. I wash most things in cold just for the energy savings.
