    No longer available ?

    Pros

    This is my preferred laundry detergent; everything comes out clean and fresh - great for everyday cleaning. So many of the other effective brands leave a very strong "scent" behind which is not to everyone's liking.

    Cons

    Can't seem to find it in stock in any of the major supermarkets. Looks like it's no longer available in NZ (or at least in the South).

    Recommend it?

    Yes, I recommend this product.

    Fragrance free

    Pros

    I understand Consumer’s reluctance to comment on whether fragrance is nice or nasty as it is subjective. Personally I find I dislike most and also my partner’s skin is very sensitive to fragrance. It would help if Consumer would at least note ‘fragrance free’ in the review. This is the reason I use this product.

    Cons

    Could be better at removing perspiration odour. (At least it doesn’t try to cover it up with a cheap pong!)

    Recommend it?

    Maybe, it depends on what you're after.
