From a 1984 episode of "Fight Back! With David Horowitz", David takes on a Tide commercial. Will it get a pair of dirty jeans clean as claimed in the ad?

Reply 10 It's definitely a Henkel product. With that being said, I thought Henkel was exiting the private-market laundry detergent sector? Have they done a reverse course?

We purchased the smallest bottle, which was about 25 loads for $4.00 and change. Considering that other "bargain brands" cost more, and clean worse, it was a decent value. Looking forward to CR test results on it.

It's decent... ...definitely does not have the cleaning power of Tide, as one of my shirts still had a faint stain, but for a store brand, it cleaned well on everyday kitchen soils. It also left our towels with a pleasant fragrance. Certainly a solid performer, though, and far better than, say...

We just picked this up a few hours ago... ...and will be giving it a shot soon. I'll say this. It smells nice. Definitely not like the liquid Tide of old, but it has a much more "premium" scent than a typical store brand. The Mrs. is eager to try it on some of her kitchen towels. We'll see...

Every so often, I browse apartments online to see what’s out there. I came across this particular unit, and it had something in the kitchen. I’ve never seen before. I’m not sure if this is an additional oven? An old-school microwave? Something completely different? Just curious as to what it is...

What site did you find these on? Did you message them to at least ask for the brand, etc?

So, a number of years ago when I was living in another apartment building in another town, a neighbor of mine had a side-by-side refrigerator. I remember that it wasn't terribly big (it couldn't have been, with the space allotted for appliances in those kitchens) - maybe 28 inches? And it was a...

Reply 100.... ...The jury is still out on that one.

For the love of all things big and small, Jerome.... ...shut the **** up already.

Amazon is your friend...

"... I can't seem to find them in any stores...." And you won't. That's because Henkel does not sell Somat (their brand of dishwasher products) in the USA. Your best bet would be to purchase it online from an importer - or maybe even Amazon or eBay. Keep in mind that P&G and...

Meanwhile, we've tried Aldi "Radiance" gel.... ...and it was terrible! With that being said, we have hard water here, so perhaps that was a factor. We've also tried Target's generic powder, and were relatively impressed - especially for the price.
