Does Persil Liquid ProClean from Walmart USA contain....
Comments (13)lets get this straight. I googled. I went to their website. I looked at the ingredients. nowhere does it say it has or doesn't have optical brightners, so get off your high horses. furthermore, the odor left in the clothes my wife washed in persil yesterday, aggravates my asthma, so I'm returning the Persil to Walmart. therefore, my original question is moot. People without allergy issues have no idea how bad some things can aggravate one's condition. over and out...See MorePersil Pro Clean rolling out - Canada
Comments (36)Is it just me? The powder smells exactly like the German megaperls? I bought that and the liquid cold water wash. The rest regular smelled odd to me in the bottle. I find the scent very strong. I don't dislike it but not sure I can handle it haha. We'll see. Haven't used the powder on a load yet but the smell and look is very much like the German as I recall it....See MoreNew Detergent Ratings
Comments (25)If you look around the net, you'll find out that CR is basically worthless, and has been for many years. I first heard about it via TrueDelta, and they had a long post there explaining some of the issues. I also know that if you ask anyone who's an enthusiast or professional in the area that you're looking at ratings, they almost always will totally disagree with CR. Part of the problem is their testing methodology - they come up with a lot of artificial tests that may or may not approximate real life at all. They also use all things as it comes out of the box. That's a reasonable test for some things, but for others, like washing machines it makes 0 sense as pretty much everyone can and does use the cycles for what they're washing to the extent the cycles are named appropriately. There just are things that everyone uses on the default setting (For me, it's the dishwasher - pretty much always auto mode, and the TV, I plug it in and go). There are lots of other things where people use settings to tune the device. The problem there is how do you generalize what the common level of tune is for a device? Is it fair to rate something that OOTB would be a 60 a 95 *if* you know how to tune it over the course of a couple days by someone with special skills, and maybe with some modifications? Not so useful. But if selecting "Whites" when washing whites does a much better job, say 60 to 80, than the default "Normal" or "Auto" setting, I think that's fair to point out and rate accordingly. The other problem IMHO is they really really push economy / value over everything else. This isn't a bad point of view, but it really would be served by breaking out like Consumers digest used to do the cheap, middle, and high end by price, and picking the best performing of each on that scale. I.e. a Camry may be a better value than a Lexus dollar for dollar, but I don't know if it makes sense to penalize the Lexus a noticeable amount simply because it's a higher end product and costs more. OTOH - if there are things that are expensive (Monster AV cables) that actually aren't any better than the cheap (Monoprice AV cables) or are actually worse, that should also be pointed out. I think they also push eco friendliness quite a bit, which is fine, but Greeness is orthogonal to functionality and price. I think all this ended up how it is because they have limited space in a printed publication, but on a web site? There's no reason not to give a LOT more information, that they have but claim is "proprietary". That information is what would actually help people choose what is best. They could have "magic quadrants" which is only a small step up in complexity but convey so much more info potentially. The next step up would be to have functionality, cost, eco, reliability, style, usability all ranked in a list. . ....See MorePersil Laundry Detergent recommendation
Comments (16)@MiMi, I'm not sure which Persil but I read it in other threads, and there were suggestions that the vomit smell occurred when people used chlorine bleach with their wash. ======= I used the Persil ProClean liquid this weekend on 3 loads of laundry (2 hot, 1 warm) on normal cycle with extra rinse. 2 Tablespoons left a scent after washing and drying - not as bad as I feared but still perfumery, not vomit. Hopefully the smell dissipates quickly. Regarding cleaning performance, I don't see an improvement over Tide. Maybe I overloaded the wash (4.0 cu ft, 8 kg/17.6 lb capacity)? - queen duvet cover, 2 queen sheets (fitted & flat), mattress protector, 4 pillow cases...See MoreLarisa Batchelor
