I really wish more people reviewed and compared the mid tier detergents. Specifically All (regular scent), Gain, Purex, and Arm & Hammer. I'd love to see a review comparing these specific brands head to head.
@@thecleanpsycho yeah it seems like Henkel has really stripped the All brand. It seems like only the Free & Clear All is the only one that gets any attention. I miss the other scents that All used to have back in the day before Henkel bought it.
I found a bigger body of the ajax laundry detergent in the 5$ section of my dollar tree and I like it like the smaller one from Walmart it's my go to stain treatment cuz its so liquidy I put in a spray bottle
Put some white vinegar with Ariel powder, which is not specifically HE. Vinegar is a natural fabric softener and cuts down on suds. And DT's washing machine cleaner is awesome - just like Tide washing machine cleaner but 80% cheaper! Use it monthly.
Thanks for the review! Inflation killing us out here and while I love my Gain, my pockets are ready to try something cheaper that can get the job done.
Dollar general always has gain coupons. I never bought expensive laundry detergent until I moved next door to a dollar general store and now I buy tide and gain all the time because they always have coupons for it. The small bottles 1 dollar off which makes them 4.50
Normally I use 1/4 a cup but that is because I have a top load washer machine. Even though it's HE, it still uses more water than a front loader. I would use 2 tablespoons if it was a front loader and see how it does. I haven't used it in a front loading washer machine so you would have to be careful. Also, I honestly wouldn't recommend it for HE front loaders because if it causes any issue such as clogging components in the machine, it could void your warranty if you don't use HE detergent. Lastly, with all powder detergent I do a second rinse cycle. Just to make sure it all rinses away. With my specific washer machine model I have never had an issue with any powered detergent dissolving but I am aware that other people with other machines have had issues with powder detergent completely dissolving so I would recommend adding a second rinse cycle. Hope this helps.
Hello I have gone on this journey to try laundry detergents typically found in Mexico 123, FOCA, Ariel, Zote (Liquid). Any thoughts on these? I used FOCA but the powder with good results.
I have never tried to Zote Liquid but Foca and Ariel are okay. Ariel is really good in my experience so I’d recommend it the most out of the group because according to my stain test it does very well. Foca powder and liquid are just okay. If your clothes don’t get very dirty they can work well.
$5.62 for 203 fl oz??? That's a good deal for ANY detergent! A 168 fl oz bottle of Tide Simply costs me $14, and that lasts a good three months at least.

I don’t have the original All anymore but I could see about doing a mid tier detergent comparison.

I started using the Walgreens brand detergent. It comes in a 28 oz bottle at 23 loads for $1.99 on sale. It's pretty good and it smells great.
I might have to try that

Tide free and gentle is a great one
Im using xrra tropical passion right now and it gets my clothes real clean but i dont get real dirty
The Ajax used to be $1.00 at Walmart. They raised the price
Yes I had to buy a new one and it’s now 1.78 hence I am RUclips surfing for other options
ALL detergent breaks me out arm and hammer sensitive is a great detergent for sensitive skin
Great video. This is really good because the price of life is just going up at this point. I will have to try the Tide one.
Thank you for this information! Take care

Hey friend! ❤❤ your recommendations ❤❤
Hey!!
What dose do you use of the Foca in your HE?

If you dont get real dirty the xtra is a good choice
Indeed
