Best smelling detergent?
Comments (12)Maylingsmom, here's the ingredients list for foca: cleaning agents, (lineal anionic, surfactant and proteolitic enzyme) water softener ( aluminosilicates and silicate), soil suspending agent ( c.m.c.) optical brightener, and perfume. The bag will say to use 1 cup for large loads, but that's way to much. I have never used this on darks IMO its great for whites and lights though and the light smell is fabulous. If you want to send me your address I could mail you a ziplock bag to try....See MoreNew Gain "Scent Duet" Flings
Comments (10)For what it's worth, ever since I got the LiGi I'm not getting much leftover scent from any detergents -- even the ones I like. Yay for good rinsing, boo for lack of comfort scents. Exceptions are Persil Gel (that stuff could withstand a nuke) and a bit of Cheer. All Tide powder scents gone. In a way, this is a good thing. Once my supply of good smelling Tide is gone and I have to buy the crappy smelling stuff, hopefully it will rinse away and only the box has an unpleasant odor....See MoreWTF? P&G changed "Original Scent" Tide pods!
Comments (43)Livebetter, Yes, it was the Lavender GG pods daughter really liked, and she enjoyed them for sheets and towels. I wonder if a couple of Tide Free and Gentle pods with a GG oxygen bleach pod would suffice for your son? I'm trying to think of a pod strong enough, but doesn't stink up the whole neighborhood... My other daughter REALLY likes Tide F&G pods for her laundry (it gets quite smelly--works out hard and a lot, then the laundry sits in the hamper for a long time). She mentioned just the other day how she misses Tide F&G pods so much. Pandemic buying had made them unavailable to us for months. I'm starting to see them in stock online again and may reorder at some point soon for her. But she's having good luck getting the stink out with Kirkland Free and Clear liquid at the moment. Liquid (I feel) is a challenge for laundromat types of settings though, unless one has a small bottle to cart around--like those sample size bottles one finds sometimes at the Dollar type of stores--fill those up every few weeks or so and bring that to the laundromat or laundry room down the dorm hall instead of a large bottle. I'm glad the college laundry situations are behind this family! Good luck, and everyone does get through it, somehow :-)...See MoreMiele Gas Range Self Clean Issue with DuPont Zodiac Quartz backsplash
Comments (88)We completed a large scale kitchen remodel with high end architect and construction company. We heavily researched 36" gas ranges and selected a Miele 36" gas range because we do a lot of baking and because of the self-clean function. The oven doesn't reach temperature. We have to use an oven thermometer and constantly adjust the temperature to bake. The gas takes a bit to come out and once it does, it comes out with a vengeance and the burners click for about a minute every single time you turn it on. This has happened since the first day it was installed. Like the OP, we also hear the loud noises during baking. We have had 5 repair people out, including Miele reps and still no resolution. But- the worst part has been the same as the OP- scorched backsplash. The manual for the gas range has changed since we received the range- our manual does NOT mention anything about vapors, scorching or trim. The architect/designer and construction company have had multiple people through our house to figure out what is going on and all point fingers to the range. We even asked about a backguard. When we brought this to Miele's attention, they blew us off. After using the self-clean function, our tile backsplash looks like a mess. We don't know how to resolve the issue because the oven doesn't work properly and the backsplash issue isn't a quick fix. We aren't blaming anyone. We just wanted to share our experience and hope that maybe someone might have some constructive comments to help us come up with a solution....See Morelittlegreeny
