Liquid, Powder, Pods Detergent?
« on: November 01, 2017, 04:30:54 pm »
I only use liquid.  I tried the pods, but according to the package you should put 3 in for a full load.  I think it’s kind of a waste using 3.

I've used liquid and powder before. It was whatever was on sale, though I am finding it harder to get liquid detergent anymore.

I prefer pods there less messy no clean up and easier to use then anything else they have on the market today. Takes all the guess work and measuring out of it which i like a lot

Liquid only. Powder clumps up and never gets fully dissolved. Pods are not economical at all.

I use Liquid detergent only.  Powdered detergent only leaves lumps of powder on my clothes.  I hate that .

I mostly use liquid unless I find a great deal on pods.

I only use liquid as well.  I don't like pods because I dont believe they should manufacture anything that looks like candy to a child.

I like the liquid detergents and use them all the time. I buy whatever is on sale and stock up. Right now I have 2 large (100 load) bottles of liquid and 2 smaller bottles of the same liquid. At this rate, I'm good to go for almost a year. Being it's only the 2 of us and we have lots of clothes, I only need to do the wash monthly.  :)

I like the pods.  They are so easy and work just as well.

I use liquid for washing clothes and have for a long, long time.  I use the pods for the dishwasher.
Have a wonderful day!

I like liquid castile soap.
I buy the peppermint and my apartment smells fresh when I do laundry.
There are pods that have no chemicals.
powder seems to "cake" and clump together.

I only use liquid detergent because I have sensitivity to perfumes and dyes

I like liquid laundry detergent.  However, sometimes my daughter makes a very large batch of powder detergent and shares with me.
I don't think the pods "dis-solvable" plastic dissolves 100% and will eventually clog up the pipes.

Cost wise it is cheaper to use the liquid.  Too bad because the pods are so easy.
