The Persil is in town. I don't need detergent. I bought the Persil.
Oooooh, will have to give the pod version (Power Caps) a try.
PerSILL? I've always said PURRsill. Live and learn, I guess.

I used Downy April Fresh liquid with the Persil and they go rather nice together I think. I have tried the softener from Henkel called Vernel "Fresh" I think it used to be called Day at the Beach or something like that, and it was no day at the beach sent wise. Reeked to the high heavens to my snout.
I too am looking forward to the PowerCaps and I want to see if they dont have issues with disolving like I have with the Tide Pods. In the SQ washer they do disolve well but in the front loader...not so much. The wrapper get stuck in folds and sometimes I dont catch until it comes out of the dryer...not good.
Now I cant wait til the snow disapears and I can hang out laundry again and see how the scent is on the clothes drying in the breeze outdoors....

Guess you won't like the new Vernel versions then. All of them have been "improved" to give Freshness That Lasts 8 Weeks (only exception being the unscented version). :-/

Bought the Persil pearls for whites yesterday for the first time. Used a little less than line one for a regular size load in my top load speed queen washer. I had a lot of suds. Even the rinse water was sudsy. Did two extra rinses to get the suds out. I was under the assumption that Persil was a low sudsing detergent. I personally don't like a lot of suds in my water. We have sensitive skin, so I always do a second rinse to make sure all the soap is out. Any advice on how to avoid so much suds. Am I supposed to use even less than the bottle says? Any help from people who use Persil in a top load washer that has experience with this would be appreciated.
Thank you.
Thank you.
It was only a matter of time.....
Knew it would happen and is one of the reasons why one loves the USA.

Others Will Follow. You Mark My Words
This seller is obviously delusional to take that sort of mark-up, spelling errors aside.
That being said it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out there is money to be made on this Dial/Henkel Persil now sold in the USA.
When you consider what persons were paying for Persil from Miele and other American sources not to mention having it shipped from overseas buyers ten dollars or so (depending upon tax or not) is cheap. Now factor in some persons for various ethical or moral reasons won't set foot in a Walmart, and or one isn't located near them....
Shipping costs obviously would be a factor. While don't think the large bottles will fit a USPS flat rate box, the Duo-Caps probably will easily.
That is just eBay. There is also the potential for private sales via say a Craigslist or similar.

Found at Walmart today!
Cute pods
This is a 16 pack for $5.24.
I hope Henkel reformulated these sufficiently. When our consumer magazine tested these, the Caps were so bad that the clothes came out dirtier than they went in because the soil settled back onto the fabric.

I wonder how long the exclusivity agreement is with Walmart? Isn't Sams Club part of the Walmart family? If so it seems like this would eventually be sold there as well.

Logixx do you have a link to the review? I wonder how much (if at all) they were reformulated for the US? The colors seem to be reversed from the Universal Duo-Caps, not that that means anything definitive.
These PowerCaps are made in Hungary so methinks it could be the same formula that is available in Europe. I won't know til I try em. They do smell like the PowerPearls and Liquid.
Thanks for the update and photos of Persil Power Caps, Mike! Wonder if they're available in Minnesota, yet. Probably won't get to a Walmart for a couple of weeks. That's OK; I'm still in the honeymoon phase with Tide HE Turbo Pods and their magically-disappearing suds.
