Maybe you have a bad washing machine? I never wash in hot water (because we have a crappy water heater and my laundry loads always seem to conflict with someone wanting to take a shower) and everything always gets clean, including a wide variety of kid-induced stains and husband underarm smells.

You wash in cold water? I'm amazed but glad that it works for you. Thinking about it, we only wear cotton -I wonder if that makes a difference?

The chemical composition of the water and types of fabrics have a big effect on the outcome. Oh, brand of detergent also.
