Works well but expensive

Product as advertised. We are a family of five, three hikers/vacationers, one woman runner and one daughter in Los Angeles. Needless to say, most of our garments absorb moisture. This detergent has literally breathed new life into some of our garments, eliminating odors that traditional detergents don't. Yes, the smell isn't very, but it's not scary.

Pros
  • Machine washable; Outperforms household cleaners in odor removal and prevention

Helps my son's smelly soccer jerseys

Our family wears a lot of athletic, moisture-wicking clothing. I started noticing smells; especially with my son's t-shirts which stuck to clothes even after washing.

Pros
  • Speeds up drying and improves moisture absorption and breathability in athletic or workout clothes
Cons
  • Price

MARVELOUS. I love this cleanser

NOTHING works like this stuff and with a house full of boys I hope I never part with it. I know that some…

Pros
  • Recommended for synthetic base layers and bodycons like Under Armor and Dri-FIT
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging
