Lidl Formil - Now In Gel Format

Until Front Loading Washers Totally Replace

Front loaders I shouldn't think it will happen anytime soon.

Most liquid "HE" detergents sold here can be used in top or front loading washers. With the former things would get tricky chucking a dosing cap into the tub.

Regarding the Lidil detergent. The bottle looks very similar to those of the French Ariel Excell Gel I've in my stash.

Gave it a try

40 degree cotton wash, with two hour soak and extra water option

Seemed to be not bad although there were a couple of "shadows" on a couple of hankerchiefs. Hardly any fragence left in the spun items. Although very cheap (£2.39!!) I did notice that the Formil concentrated liquid was the same price for 28 washes (gel was 20) with makes it an even cheaper option
