Previously, it had never even occurred to me to buy a liquid concentrate instead of the usual powder. But after trying Persil, I was simply delighted. It can be used in the same way as powder; it has a convenient spout; you can pour the gel directly into the powder compartment or throw it into the drum along with the lid.
I liked everything, and first of all the smell (delicate and spring)! and a convenient bottle, nothing will spill past, it’s convenient to pour into washing machine. The design of the bottle is conveniently thought out, from the handle (comfortable to hold) to the spout (you won’t spill it), and the measuring cup. Everything washed off and a pleasant smell remained.
Just out of curiosity, I tried washing it without conditioner, and the smell is “simply wonderful! It stays on the clothes and is long-lasting)
The contents of the bottle melt before our eyes; the product is uneconomical.
I think it’s imperative to keep a bottle of liquid concentrate at home and use it at least when washing towels. Why towels?
1. Instead of washing powder, it is better to use liquid laundry detergents. They are better washed out of fabrics, as they were originally created for washing delicate fabrics made of wool, silk, cotton and linen. The gels do not damage the terry fibers and maintain the fluffiness of the fabric. In addition, they cope well with any dirt, and after washing the fabric does not become rough. It is advisable to wash at a temperature not exceeding 60 C.
2. It is undesirable to use fabric softeners; they are not completely washed out of the laundry, remain in the terry fibers and it becomes rough. Every housewife wants her laundry to remain fresh and smelling after washing. With Persil gel concentrate, you can wash without conditioner and all your laundry will smell like spring. The smell is simply wonderful!
My husband and I have more!! There will be no situation where the powder spills on the floor when poured into the washing machine tray. Gel, unlike powder, will never leave traces in the form of granules in the powder compartment. I noticed that with a large amount of powder during washing, stains remain on clothes. This will not happen when using the gel. Our mothers and grandmothers washed with powder all their lives, and gel concentrate is the future of modern women.
From using the Persil gel, the only thing I have left is freshness from Vernel positive emotions, I tried Losk then, but I liked Persil much more.
I think it would be better to use liquid gel for the washing machine than powder.

Washing gel has replaced powder as a more modern remedy to fight odor and stains. One of the reasons why there is a need for them is the frequent problems with dry products, particles of which are not always easy to rinse out of the fabric. This is especially true for dark clothes and down jackets. One of the most popular and advertised products is Persil washing gel. It would be a good idea to read reviews about it before purchasing it in a store.
About the product

The products are gentle on tissues and destructive on stains. It’s convenient that the gel is universal, and you can use it to wash any clothes. The gels are suitable for use in any washing machines, as well as for hand wash.

What do consumers like about the product?
Many who have tried gels of this brand once become its fans. The modern market is so saturated with offers that buyers do not leave a single detail unattended. Likewise, reviews about Persil washing gel begin with a description of the convenience of packaging. The bottle is convenient to carry, take out, put away and pour the product from it. It has a comfortable handle and quite comfortable weight. To optimize consumption, you should use a measuring cup. Quite often you can see opinions that the product does not remove stains well.

The vast majority of consumers like the way the gel washes colored items. With each wash they do not become more faded, but the original color saturation is preserved.
What consumers don't like about the product
Any product cannot be liked by absolutely everyone, and Persil washing gel is no exception. Reviews from dissatisfied consumers are sometimes found. The main disadvantages cited by most are:
- excessive odor;
- bad result;
- price.
Moreover, all points are quite often interconnected. In order to reduce the intensity of the smell of washed items, some reduce the amount of added gel. This quite often affects the quality of the wash, causing great disappointment. And when the result does not live up to expectations and the money spent, the well-known question arises: “Why pay more?”
It should be added that such criticism does not occur often. Most consumers are satisfied with the quality of the product and do not complain about the strong aroma. Such opinions can be explained by individual sensitivity to all odors. But it is also possible to purchase low-quality products. Therefore, purchases should be made in places you can trust. You should not buy Persil washing gel in an unfamiliar place that attracts you with a low price for goods. It will be useful to find out reviews about it before purchasing the product. This will help save money and health.
1. When using dry washing powder, you need to take into account various factors: water hardness, degree of soiling of the laundry, drum load, etc.
2. For washing machines, always use powder only marked “automatic”. Hand washing powder gives a large number of foam, which is detrimental to household appliances. Also, do not use one powder for all types of laundry. Ideally, have at least a separate detergent for washing whites, colored items and for delicate clothes made from delicate fabrics.
2. On average, you should focus on the following formula: 1 tablespoon of dry powder per 1 kilogram of laundry. If the fabric is heavily soiled, the volume of powder can be increased.
3. Remember that both too little and too much powder are not very good. If you put too little, you risk not getting results and will have to start washing again. And if you overdo it with powder, you will get poorly washed fabric with stains and gradual wear of the washing machine.
4. Pay attention to the fabric. Choose the right washing program and suitable temperature.
5. If there are stains on the fabric, it is better to first wash them by hand or soak them for a couple of hours, and then machine wash them using the usual amount of powder.
Liquid washing gel
1. The advantage of liquid laundry gel is that it can be used in three ways: poured into the powder compartment, poured directly into the drum, and also placed in a special dispenser, which can also be sent into the drum along with the laundry.
2. Liquid gel is consumed quite sparingly. To wash a small amount of lightly soiled laundry, you only need 75 ml of product. The stronger the degree of contamination, the more gel should be used, but not more than 150 ml.
3. If there are stains on your clothes, you can first pour the gel directly onto the stain, wait a while, and then put it in the washing machine. Local impact on pollution will give a more effective result.
4. The advantage of liquid laundry gels, such as Persil and Losk, for example, has many advantages over dry powders. One of them is that they wash fabric perfectly even at low temperatures. By the way, it has long been proven that washing at medium and low temperatures is sometimes much more effective. For example, blood stains at temperatures above 60 degrees, on the contrary, only eat into the fabric more strongly, after which they cannot be removed at all.
5. If you know that the water in your region is too hard, then the dosage of the liquid gel can be increased by an average of 15-20 ml.
Laundry capsules
1. In terms of dosage, laundry capsules are one of the simplest and most understandable products. For one wash, even if the drum is fully loaded, one capsule is enough. That is, a package of fifteen capsules will last you exactly fifteen washes.
2. Even a child can handle laundry using capsules. The only rule is that they must be placed at the bottom of the drum before loading laundry.
3. Using laundry capsules such as Persil Duo Caps, you don’t have to wash stains first, since these capsules already contain a liquid stain remover.
4. The capsule shell does not need to be torn or pierced before washing, since the protective film completely dissolves when exposed to water.
