I am jealous. Have never been a fan of Ariel, but I would have bought that just to get my hands on some to give it a whirl.
I'd be very interested to hear what you have to say about it.....don't forget to increase the dosage for a full load in your top-loader AND to use the longest cycle.

Question on Ariel
Hi Chris,
Should I use a larger dose in the top loader,I ask because I am assuming this would be formulated for F.L.'s,and would it help if I dissolved it in a jug of hot water before adding it, or just bung it in the dispenser?,also stopped to think for a minute before buying as I am not really a fan of fabric softener and I think Lenor is a F.S, but I guess 1 bag wont do any harm.
Thanking you in advance.
Steve.

Silent cycle
When I use it I will use the silent cycle as much as possible, as it goes for about 75 minutes,similar to most F.L.'s.

Country of origin will pretty much tell you if it's front or top load. Basically, if it's European, which I think it is, it'll be for front loaders.
Use the 'soft water' (lowest) dose for a small load and double that for a full load.
...and if you don't like it, I'll be in Sydney next weekend....

We can buy this Ariel over here in WA from our local Euro Deli, i think its Polish, they also have the Lenor fabric softeners which are very similar to the UK Lenors.
I have some Ariel 'Prozim' with Lenor Relaxation that I use on my towels occasionally, works great on whites though

Matty,
What other washing products have you got available in that fantastic sounding deli and how much a bag is that detergent or any others that they have available?
If you're up for it, I'd happily pay the cost plus the $23 postage to give it or something else a whirl.

Hi Steve
It's funny to see this Ariel on this page, 'cos I see it every day here in Slovenia when I go to the Supermarket
It's made in Czech Republic, like quite all of the P&G detergents for our market and others East European Countries.
(and it's obviously formulated for front loaders as you have already figured out by yourself)
I haven't tried this version with lenor but the regular one and it's good, I would only say the the scent is quite strong.
Now this "complete 7" version is slowly disappearing because they are introducing the new "3D Active" version.
So... Ariel, than Ariel M-zim 5, than Ariel Pro-zim 7, than Ariel complete 7 and now the last version Ariel 3D active.
have fun with your new detergent

They have a variety of Ariels in different size bags and also Lenors in big bottles (think 2L milk size). They also have a detergent called Merix but that comes in a huge 9kg bag. Also a softener called Duel but i didn't think much of the one I tried. This was all before I left for England over a month ago, things could have changed so will have to go check soon.
But yes I would be happy to send a bag along maybe as a swap because I wanted to try some Aldi detergent as we don't get the store over here and it seemed to come out top in a lot of reviews.

You're on!
I'm not fussed on anything with softener in it, but would love to try some others.....and I prefer detergents that don't reek, if that makes sense....
Name what you'd like to try from Aldi and it's yours...

Has a whole detergent range offered in Germany.
Wonder if P&G will bring out a "Downy" detergent range in the United States
