The premium plus powder is liked by many of us. It's a pretty good all-in-one detergent. I've never tried the sport liquid.

I have and like BioKleen Premium Plus but it has oxygen bleach so best not used on colors.

I've been meaning to try the Sport liquid, but always keep putting it aside because it only comes in those GIANT gallon jugs. If you go that route I'd love to hear what you think of the detergent! Regular (non enzyme) Biokleen liquid was very sudsy in my machine, so I was glad that I only bought a small 32 load bottle to try it out.

Actually depends how much sodium percarbonate is in the detergent. ..if its Cheer powder there's only enough to neutralize the chlorine in tap water, but not enough to fade , if however its a whitening detergent it can and will cause fading.

Mama, I agree. So you'd classify the premium plus powder as a "whitening detergent"?

Greeny, I would. I was led to understand the premium plus was for whites as it lists oxygen bleach in bold letters on the front of the box.

Thing about the US is most people want one detergent fits all. The Europeans have long known this is not the best laundry practice. Oxygen bleach without an activator and used in cooler temps probably won't fade clothing, but turn up the heat and there could be a problem. Oxy does not strip colors like chlorine bleach but it will fade..depending on if its touted as a oxygen bleach detergent. I know a lot of powders list sodium percarbonate in their ingredients list but don't mention it on the box front. I think in this case there's not enough to worry about. Like Tide with Bleach powder..that has enough Oxy to cause real fading problems.

As for the BioKleen Premium Plus. .I don't know really..I just know its touted on the front as having oxygen bleach. .lol

I have both. I would consider the Sport to be very similar to the cold water biokleen, The sport is geared more for odor control with the eucalyptus scent and the extra ingredient that 'eats' ammonia from sweat

You could certainly use either for all your laundry. I don't recall a bleach activator in the ingredients., so you're not going to get much bleaching action with the powder unless you go with seriously hot water. Say 140F..

I would ask yourself if you prefer liquid or powder, or would if you'd prefer a mild citrus, versus lavender/eucalyptus scent.. However, not much scent remains after rinsing/drying

sspeer...Do you find the BioKleen sport liquid to be super sudsy in the FL?

I have a few detergents that are routinely good (low sudsing), but I have been recently having a heck of a time with a lot of detergents causing near suds emergencies (taking 5-7 rinses to clear).

Thanks! :)

I just threw in a load of suds factory towels for you larsi haha. Hot water, half cap dosage (per instructions). VERY few suds. I had to pause to make sure there was a little slickness in the water.

That's also how I recall the Cold Water liquid behaving..I have to keep myself from adding more

Thanks for everyone's input! I have finally ordered both and will update after trying them out. They should arrive mid-week.

Jess, as you said above that you would love to have one detergent for all....this is how much of America feels LOL... but when it comes to laundry one size just doesn't fit all.

I think everyone should have several detergents, a basic for colors, an OB free for darks, and a Whites for...well whites and lights. A gentle enzyme free for wool, silk, and delicates would also be good to have on hand.

I think you will enjoy the BioKleen Premium Plus, let us know what you think of it.
