After reading one of the other reviews I decided to pick up the Wisk Free and Clear for my husbands uniforms as I can no longer use the original scented Tide I was using for them due to my recent developement of allergies. Also, taking into account I had to purchase new detergents to try due to the allergies to see what would work for me, I really didn't have the extra money in the budget to pay for the Tide Free, which retails at my local store for about$9 for a 32 load jug. So, I picked up a 32 load jug of the Wisk Free and Clear for$5. That$4 difference helps, especially around this time of year.
I must say I was incredibly impressed. This detergent did far better than the Tide ever did. My husbands uniforms and work coat came out better than they ever had before. Now, I did not pretreat the first time I used it. I always want to see what a detergent can do just putting it in. It gives me a better idea of it's effectiveness, but I did soak the clothing with the detergent in the washing machine. Now my husband is a Garbage man. He gets many difficult unknown stains and it is usually impossible to get them lighter let alone just getting them all out. The Wisk removed many of the stains and left the other ones much lighter. Also, all odors were completely gone. It was so effective, my husband even noticed and if you ever met him, you would know he usually doesn't comment about anything unless it's something highly noticable.
Now to save me money, I am only using this for his uniforms and use other lower cost detergents for our general laundry. However, I must say, that if you have tough stains and allergies, the Wisk Free and Clear is the detergent for you.
