    Colour Care Detergents

    Colour detergents My friend only uses Persil Colour Liquid and all of her clothes are dark and still look brand new. All of her laundry is coloured especially black jeans and top's and they all look brand new and not faded. She washes her black clothes at 30 degrees inside out and dries them...

    Colour Care Detergents

    Ive started using Persil Colour Small and Mighty and Capsules, and I find they are less abrasive on colours than the Colour Powder. Persil Colour powder has Optical Brighteners in it which I don't know if this has an effect on fading colours but I find the liquid and Capsules leave the laundry...

    Persil History Thread - Info/pictures/videos appreciated!

    Ariel Stain Remover I'm not surprised Ariel Stain Remover has been pulled, why say your powder is the best, if you require additional stain removers to get your washing clean. I can't stand the smell of Ariel Powder, Haven't used it in ages, Since 2006 it has had a heavy overpowering chemical...

    Which? UK laundry detergents - June 2015

    Interesting It always seems like the top spot seems to go to Formil or Almat detergents, which is good as both are excellent detergents for the price (£2.39 a box for 25 washes) I'm using Almat Non Bio Powder at the moment (the bio one makes me itch like mad), and I find it brilliant, I see it...

    Optical Brighteners

    Optical Brighteners I'm currently using Almat Non Biological washing powder and liquid, and I use about 50-75ml per wash (powder), as it tends to froth up, especially when doing hot washes at 60 degrees, If i use 100ml or more, I tend to get a suds lock during the interim spin of my Beko...

    An important thread - What type of detergent; powder or liquid ?

    My favourite is Daz I love Daz washing powder (the regular one), it has a lovely almost retro smell, which smells good. And I always buy the big boxes for £4 in Tesco when they on offer. My whites are always amazing, used it on darks too and washes them well without that much fading. I use...

    An important thread - What type of detergent; powder or liquid ?

    Powder for me I use powder on whites, but have a couple of bottles of liquid which I use for darks/coloured loads or for quick wash cycles. I have used powders on dark clothes and haven't really noticed much of a difference apart from if I dry clothes inside and I have used a liquid, the...

    Fabric Softeners -

    I've stopped using fabric conditioners/softeners because every single one seems to have an overpowering perfume which gets to the back of your throat. All the Comfort and Lenor ones smell so strong that I literally can't breathe, the perfumes are so disgustingly strong, and as the scent breaks...

    Ariel or Persil?

    Daz. Neither, I like Daz Powder on whites :) its reasonably priced, smells fresh and does a good job, better when Daz is on offer for £4 for a big box at Tesco, or I'll buy the medium sized box for £3 at Savers.

    My New Beko ECO WMB81445LW

    aeg 03 I am not really sure if it does adapt to the load to the time as I've not noticed to be honest, but I do love the daily quick wash as a daily driver, the daily quick 60 is so handy, as I can wash my double bed set and a few towels and flannels, a scoop of daz or surf powder and 58...

    My New Beko ECO WMB81445LW

    aeg03 I had the same Beko as you but the 1200 version, it was really rubbish and I hated the foamy suds locks during the interim spins, all my clothes came out really soapy and unrinsed, but this machine rinses them perfectly. I really did my research before I purchased this machine as I...

    My New Beko ECO WMB81445LW

    I recently updated my washing machine and dishwasher, bought a Beko ECO WMB81445LW on offer for £239 on AO.com. My experience of Bekos generally haven't been positive, as I had a WM5120W from August 2010 - June 2014 which was crap, very noisy and didn't rinse very well. But this model seems very...

    indesit how bad can they be ❓

    Bosch Classixx My Beko broke down in June 2014, so i bought a reconditioned Bosch Classixx 1000 but mine is the older model with the square buttons :) its not the express model so it has long wash cycles instead of the short cycles as standard. Its an excellent machine, I always use reduced...

    Softner, liquid & sheet type perfume Smell ?

    I don't like fabric softener Most of them have a disgusting strong smell, and I'd rather do without it. I use a scented laundry liquid detergent and that does everything I want it to, my clothes feel soft enough without needing a separate softener. I don't have a tumble dryer, and line dry...

    BOLD

    Bold I haven't used Bold in ages as I am allergic to it, it makes me itchy :( I think it might just be Proctor and Gambles more concentrated formulations, the liquids rinse out well though, I used Ariel compact Liquid (not the excel gel) a while back and it was excellent at rinsing...

    Washing White Bedding with Ariel - Still stained! :(

    Whites at 40 Yes the whites wash was traditionally a boil wash, but those days are over, and we have the technology in detergents to wash at lower temperatures and get great results. I feel a 95 degree wash isn't necessary, unless you are using it to boil out the machine to clean it out. In...

    Washing White Bedding with Ariel - Still stained! :(

    Liquid detergent Well for me it works for me, my whites are sparkling.. so its personal preference. Everyone has their own way of doing laundry, my washing machine doesn't smell mouldy, I keep the door ajar, and I don't exclusively wash everything at 30 with liquids, I do wash at 40 and 60...

    Washing White Bedding with Ariel - Still stained! :(

    Liquids My washing machine doesn't smell and I use liquid detergents quite a lot but then again I wash at 30, 40 and 60 degrees in my washing machine with the liquids and my washer doesn't smell mouldy or have any on the door seal as I keep the door ajar between washes. And rest assured I...
