Amazing to see the sturdy swiss...

    Trouble with Powder Tide? Have you had problems?

    problems Well...we bought ours last autum in November in Jupiter / FL and it works fine, but have to add that we bought the one with bleach!

    Whats This? A Cold Water Powder In The UK! Has Anyone Tried It?

    Will prepare it next week, too! Sounds soooo delicious!! Only thing I might change is, I shall use bottling-glasses with rubber-ring seals (sterilising glasses) and clamps in my sterilising-pot or will transfer directly into oven pre-heated (appr. 80°C) old wine bottles when the ketchup is...

    Stain Removal Tests: UK Ariel (P&G) and Persil (Unilever)

    In Germany it's said, that PERSIL (from Henkel) is slightly less effective than ARIEL but not much and not really detectable during normal household usage. The only thing why I do not use PERSIL, which is Germany's favourite powder for over 100 years, is because of it's foaming which isn't a...

    Mildy Acidic Laudry Detergent With Foam Control

    I found a hint in my old leaflets from the 1930s when the first non-soap based detergents came onto the German market for woollens and silks and stuff like other delicates. As they usually do not content anionic surfactants but non-ionic surfactants they gave a hint to wash even very delicate...

    Whats This? A Cold Water Powder In The UK! Has Anyone Tried It?

    nothing new here! We do wash now for 2.5 years - mostly - with cold water, using ARIEL and for the last 1/2 year we use the specially designed ARIEL Cold Wash Power powder with no regret at all! Only sometimes in winter-time we have to add a little extra hot water as water might be too cold...

    Powder - beats liquid?

    powder - liquid - liquid - powder - soap - or what??? Well to get it all neatly in one row: There IS a difference between powder and liquid and both have their good and not so good sides. Powders (here all-purpose powders): They usually contain bleach (oxygene) which no liquid does as it...

    how about a iron and board in one

    That is Laura Star from Switzerland and they are the same price over here in Germany and rest of Europe! I know, they are pricy but this quality is, like MIELE, the Mercedes under the irons of this world! I had one for years, got it used from somebody for much less, and can say: awesome! It is a...

    old style miele machine

    First, here is a link to an advert for a MIELE that seems to be the one our neighbour (landlady) had in our basement laundry room: there you can see all the other programmes on a household machine in comparison to the commercial one. Yue are right, EVEN MIELE (what an affront!!!!) is using more...
