Happy... Shopping! I don’t think I have ever come out of Costco without some form of detergent product (mind, the same applies to Supermarkets to be fair 🤣🙈).

Thought... As much. This goes back to the same as Persil (well theirs are 23 not 22 wash, but still). Only annoying thing, the Persil/Unilever 23 wash boxes are MUCH better than the Ariel/P&G 22 wash boxes. The Persil/Unilever boxes have the open top lid that you can reach a scoop in to...

will do much better in Europe Will be another blooming thing for the U.K. govt. to tax. They’re currently having a field day with the sugar tax no doubt. This was (spun) propositioned as a way to help towards combating childhood obesity, but In reality was to generate another revenue stream...

but they haven't had any for weeks now...has it been sto It disappeared a while back, then it came back (although only at Asda it would seem) and now I do indeed think it’s gone again, I’ve also got a feeling that the Ariel “Pur Clean” is going (if not gone) too. Either product may just not...

Interesting.. Wonder if they’ll go worldwide? They would definitely save refrigerator space. About 20 years or so back, we (UK) had self HEATING cans which had tea, coffee and I think some cuppa soups variants too, (the big brands too - PG tips, Nescafé and some others). Surprisingly, they...

Unless.. EXPRESSLY stated, the zips that allow the cushions to be “removable” is NOT to allow the covers to be laundered, but rather to allow the foam/filling to be replaced should it become worn or “flat”. Bitter experience taught me this. I washed in cool water, colour care detergent and NO...

Yes, They certainly did - Dingy whites was about the only thing more worse than a housewife not having her front doorstep scrubbed and the rinse water “joined” up with her neighbours rinse water by a certain time of the morning. Persil was very good at appealing to women’s internal guilt of...

Rolls Yes, I’ve heard that way once or twice too.

Someone’s... Mum obviously doesn’t know. Suppose that’s the problem when launching in to a category that is at 100% saturation and with a plethora of longstanding brands, it’s going to be very hard to distinguish a difference between you and the rest. Let’s face it, taking on the the Tide...

Foralaloysius Yes, will concede they are correct as using the Henkel versions :) On a side note, the lady in the ad below, Jean Metcalfe a famous radio presenter back in the day. Has the RP (Received Pronunciation) accent, which is the Queens English and all pronunciations in that accent are...

@foraloysius Yes, that’s exactly it, they way they say it on the YT videos I’ve seen. We say it as in the ad below, a nice musical advert and the word Persil is mentioned about 10 times, you know for verification of pronunciation :-D

U.K. and German Persil @panthera, no, I think ours is different as our Persil is owned by Unilever (interesting side fact, UK has no detergents on the market from Henkel, for the big brands it is just simply P&G and Unilever, with one or 2 niche manufacturers now too, then McBride who tend to...

“the name, which I find more fun to say than "Tide.” As someone from the U.K. where the Persil brand has been on the market for 110 years this year, and is probably one of the UKs single most famous brands, has always been part of everyone’s vocabulary all our lives (just as i imagine is the...

but what’s one more bottle, right? Jeez, I should have that as a tattoo. I just can’t help it, I have to come out of the store with one,I also buy “foreign” ones from eBay etc, you know, just to try!!. Worst thing is, a lot of the time, I trash a lot (I do gift where possible, especially...

Yes!!! Check, check and triple check that you have registered you warranty properly, and exactly in the way Samsung request. Also to expand on the point made above, the FULL guarantee is NOT 10 years, it is is a full 5 year warranty and a 10 year guarantee JUST on the inverter motor. Each...

Brilliant.... Looking machines, but you are almost 100% going to be using the warranty. I have had 2 Samsung machines, the first (the 12kg model, but the model before yours; had the colour screen and everything but no auto dose) was totally dead as a dodo in 7 months, after 6 engineer visits...

lakewebsterkid It’s really strange (and bemusing to a few on here from some posts) as to why you can’t get this in the US. Obviously, we have the biological/non biological farce over here in U.K, but you can easily get a detergent with all the enzymes and stain removers etc, but with no...

Hmmm Wonder if that means the UK will see the same with either Bold (closest thing we have to Gain really) or another? mind we have only recently got Ariel PurClean and were a good few months behind US getting Tide PC.. so possibly some time yet. In fact thinking about it, if PG move it on...

Thanks Michael. I’m not so sure now either, it’s the suds that puts me off. Thought they’d got this under control? Why do they think we want to wear suds covered clothes?

Are their customers really that thick? Most, if not all of the grocery online stores are doing that now. Obviously we can’t be trusted to know what a product is. I will try the surf Powergems asap and report back, as whilst I can’t be sure, they do seem lighter and not as thick as the Persil...
