I have just stopped using this laundry detergent because it is not getting my laundry clean. Something has changed, but I don't know what it is. All I can tell you is the last bottle I had worked very well and my laundry was clean and smelled fresh. With the new bottle, the clothes do not smell or look freshly washed, and simple stains are still in the clothes, no matter how much detergent I use. I can recommend Mrs. Meyers, if you want to stick with a "natural" laundry detergent. It is a bit more expensive, but it does work. Just an FYI, the Method dishwashing liquid seems to have the same problem--it is not cutting grease well, and it does not suds well. I am switching to Mrs. Meyers.

I have used it with great success on pretreated stains. I have also used it with oxy clean in the same load as well as in loads immediately following a prewash in bleach. I have not mixed the bleach and detergent in the same wash but would not see any reason against. Just isn't my habit to do them together.

Came out fine although I only use Seventh Generation and other green detergents rather than the harsher traditional ones. Mostly i just clean by hand with very hot water to remove any grease.

I know of no cleaning product that lists the "actual ingredients". This is a low viscosity liquid cleaner. It is sufficiently lightweight so that it will flow through the machine without clogging the jets in the machine. There is a slight, pleasant odor. The machine solution can be turned off so that only the steam will be used.

Here's a blurb fro their website..."The original OxiClean™. An incredible oxygen based stain fighter that's chlorine free and color safe." and "The unique formula is activated by water, unleashing bubbling oxygen power for safe, effective cleaning." It's very different from bleach, although it does seem to help with whitening; however, I use it with colored laundry as well. I hope that helps.

go to Ed Mcabe web site-google it and it should come up. He has a very detailed book about it also. After reading the book I decided to only use the 35% for bathing. I bought Oxylift(oxymune) and use it. I did want to do all the mixing to use the 35%-too much work for me. You know that you can buy the 3% very reasonably priced at any pharmacy--walmart-dollar stores, ect.

There may be a chemical reason why this stuff and laundry detergent don't mix. I can see your problem. You'd have to wipe out the washer with something before laundering. The plan is that when the laundry comes out of the machine having been rinsed with Defense, it is free of the microbes you are avoiding.

oxiclean is a non-abrasive house hold cleaner. I use it diluted inside a spray gun with water on tough stains besides in my wash by it's self and or with other detergents such as borax...

I can only give you my own washing routine. I am just starting to use my second bottle of this liquid. I started the first bottle on or about February 10th.It is definitely the detergent to use. No more yucky smelling sponges etc.only a small squirt on the sponge washes a lot of dishes.I have now also switched from a well known brand of clothes washing liquid to Seventh Generation Liquid for my Washing Machine and it works wonderful.

I don't know, this was my first and last time buying this product. I brought because of some positive reviews I saw. The scent was not strong but it did not clean well. I went back to using Trader Joe's liquid laundry detergent. Then I started adding Borax and Washing Soda as boosters, which even cleans better without harsh chemicals.

Coconut oil based surfactants (helps breakdown the left over detergents in the fibers,) soda ash softens the water. And a few other NATURAL ingredients listed by Karen below.. Whatever -- it works. It strips out the old detergent and leaves my clothes smelling like I hung them outside to dry. It's very inexpensive and doesn't pollute. I can remember my grandmother using soda to wash clothes. When I saw the description on Amazon I figured I would try it. Now, it's all I use -- no fabric softener either. We don't realize how much "bad stuff" is in all these sweet smelling things we put in our washers and dryers.

Amazingly, the ingredients are not listed on the box. Not certain how this is possible since the FDA and the environmental protection agencies require all products to list their ingredients on the label. The statement on the box reads: "Need ingredient information visit Oxiclean.comHere's what the website states: The OxiClean™ formulation is actually a combination of ingredients, the chief ingredient being hydrogen peroxide. Another essential part of the formula is the ...If I had read this information on the box I never would have used this laundry detergent on my expensive blouse. This company should be fined for lack of truth in labeling. Amazingly, the ingredients are not listed on the box.

I believe the active ingredient is sulfonic acid. It is environmentally safe and will not hard septic systems.

I've purchased and used the Legacy of Clean SA8 + bio quest. It is approved for the high efficiency washers. I love this detergent. It's cleans very well and does not cause the odor that some other detergents cause in the HE washers. I will be ordering again!
