Review on 🧺 Arm & Hammer Plus Oxiclean Super Concentrated 60 Loads Liquid Laundry Detergent - Fresh Scent, 15.27 Fl Oz (Pack of 2) - Review and Best Price by Tara Williams

Revainrating 4 out of 5

long report but some comments, cleans well

2 bottles of concentrated detergent supplied in a pack with a pump. You must save the pump for use with the second bottle. If you don't want to use the pump, there is an instruction manual. In short, I really like it and I'm glad it did a good job with some very dirty cleaning wipes. But I have some thoughts to share, so if you're so inclined, read on. Here is more detailed information on the bottle, pump, instructions, scent, potency, etc. In this review, I list my likes and dislikes: Likes/Poses: -- The fact that this is a concentrated cleanser is great. That means we don't pay for water, add freight/shipping weight, or make room on our shelves for a large bottle of soapy water. I really like that the bottle takes up almost no space. conventional washing machines or high efficiency washing machines (see further note below). Though concentrated, they are not useless. For example, sometimes when something is concentrated we still use the same amount because we are used to dosing a certain amount of ordinary (e.g. concentrated dishwashing detergent or so-called concentrated personal care products or even laundry soap) - if the cap is the same Size like the unconcentrated one we tend to use more than necessary anyway). At the same time there is a pump and we use 4 pumps for a medium load or 6 pumps for a large one. It is not necessary to monitor the measurement. I have a comment later on the direction. - Odor. It's light, fresh and pleasant. Not plowed. As a concentrate, the smell from the bottle is lighter than the smell from a normal detergent bottle. You may or may not like it. While I don't mind some clothes having a lingering odor, I struggle to find lightly scented (non-lingering) items for the other items I wash. It just smells clean and pleasant from the bottle. When the laundry dries, almost nothing smells. Just a neutral clean scent. Again, good or bad depending on your preferences. I love that the bottle has a clear spot so you can check how much you have left. There's even a note that says "a few downloads left". Healthy? Dislikes/I don't care/Issues/Negatives: -- I find that instructions are missing. There is an advertisement for installing and using the pump, but not much information on what the detergent metering should be for an HE washing machine. I don't have to worry about this with an old top-loading washing machine, but I know it can happen. Typically, someone with an HE washing machine uses less detergent than a regular washing machine. You have to try it and see what works best for your needs. While I love that it has a pump and that there are instructions on how much to use if you want to measure by hand, there is some ambiguity. in this part of the manual. "Measure from a bottle. Remove the pump and pour from the bottle. 1 medium charge = 1 tbsp.' Does this mean that 1 tablespoon will erase 1 medium charge or do I need to measure 4 tablespoons to match the reading when using the pump (4 clicks for 1 medium charge, 6 clicks for 1 large charge) . I thought maybe I could find out by measuring 1 pump. So I measured 1 full pump and that's well over 1 tablespoon. I'm still confused about this problem. Which got me thinking. What is A PUMP? Is it a single pump pushed all the way down, or is it more of a crane pump? Sorry to be pedantic, but that's what reviewers are for. Try to figure it out, point out shortcomings, highlight advantages, etc. - The pump is temperamental. Sometimes when pushed, it stays down for a while before going back up - or not, and I have to pull it back up. Not cool trying to pump 4-6 jets. The price may or may not be. There are 30 charges in each bottle for a total of 60. This is for medium charges. Depending on me/we/you figure out how hard to push the pump (or how much to measure) this could be more or less. ------------- -- --------------------Efficiency: How was it? --- This product arrived just in time for my weekend laundry. I love doing laundry and have a collection of laundry detergents for every mood or laundry need. I had quite a large selection of laundry this weekend - a mix of everything - clothes (not too dirty to mention), sheets (not too dirty, mostly covered in dog hair), bath towels, hand towels that I use for a puppy . /Potty for my senior cat to do her own chores (she won't be using the potty alone and I change the towel 2-3 times a day - the wash builds up quickly as a result) and LOTS of cleaning rags from those other people's houses cleaning people. I'd say the two loads I remembered the most were the potholders and then the cleaning rags. Everything came out clean and fresh. I always wash my cleaning cloths with something that doesn't contain fabric softener or other additives, as these reduce the cleaning power of the cloth. It's one thing to have a poor quality rag in my own house and quite another to use it in someone else's house. I don't need them softer or perfumed - I just need a detergent and a laundry detergent to really break down and get rid of all that dirt, germs and other residue that accumulates when cleaning other people's kitchens, bathrooms, floors, etc. This is a serious test of any detergent I use. how does he deal with my nasty, moldy cleaning rag? I was happy with this cleaner. They looked made up, perfectly clean, just fresh and ready to be stained again. I've found this cleaner to work for everything else, but plan on keeping it for cleaning wipes only, as they need the cleaning power this one provides. My overall rating is 4/5. Great cleaning job but instructions/pump could be better
