<human>:  What's the most efficient way of doing laundry?
<bot>: The most efficient way of doing laundry is to separate your clothes by color and fabric type before washing, as this minimizes the risk of colors bleeding and stretching delicate fabrics. Then, choose the right wash cycle and temperature for each type of clothing and don’t overload the machine so that each item is thoroughly washed. Finally, take the time to dry your clothes properly as this will extend their lifespan.
