I use Gain Ultra Lavender Powder Laundry Detergent.  I love the lavender scent and my clothes smell fresh and clean.

I have to admit that I go with the cheapest free and clear of scents and dyes laundry detergent that I can find. Right now I have Arm & Hammer. It does a good job.

I used to use Tide, but Arm@ Hammer is cheaper and works fairly well.

If it's a brand that I like and on sale, that is the one I use.  Usually Purex or Gain.

I have used Wisk for many years now.  It is one of the few detergents that my husband isn't allergic to.
Have a wonderful day!

I have sensitive skin, and I can't deal with some laundry detergents.  I usually turn to Arm & Hammer detergent, and that seems to work just fine. So that's what I often use. I like the way it smells too; clothes always feel great crisp out of the dryer with that scent.

I use several different ones, but always in liquid form. I have some allergy issues so I use a "free" detergent for some things like bedding and intimates. i use a detergent with stain removers as needed, and a nice smelling one for towels.

My first choice is always Gain because it works very well and is affordable. My second choice is Arm and Hammer when my budget is low and it works good.

I refuse to buy Tide because it is OVERPRICED and Gain works exactly the same for less money. I also will not buy super cheap detergents like Xtra because stains remain on clothes.

I have 3 or 4 brands I like and I get which ever is the cheapest.  Usually Tide but sometimes Gain.

I use Seventh Generation for the majority of my washes cause it's gentle, non-toxic and doesn't leave residue but for soiled clothes I need something a little more heavy duty, so I use Tide with bleach.

I use Tide for my "good" items and the cheapest brand I can find on everyday laundry.  I also add 1/2 cup of baking soda to each load to eliminate detergent residue that I sometimes used to get on my washed items.

We make our own, using washing soda, borax, and ivory soap (bar).  It is super cheap (around $1/2 gallon batch) and it works incredibly well.  Only takes me about a half an hour to make, once  a month. If I want to fragrance it, I add a bit of lavender essential oil, which is great b/c it's also anti-microbial and we cloth diaper our youngest.
