I’m curious if the detergents would’ve done better with more clothes in there, as the friction between clothes could provide more scrubbing action.

[@Karnakthemagnificent]

It would be interesting to see regular detergents versus the new "sheet" type of detergents that claim to wash better than the liquids and powders. Those detergents are expensive and make some big claims.

One thing I learned about laundry over the years as a mechanic, is regardless of what you use, pretreating a stain with a few drops of the laundry detergent directly on a stain, for about 10 minutes before washing, by far makes a bigger difference than any laundry detergent. Now if you buy a cheap toothbrush or use an old one and scrub in that laundry detergent drops into that stain for 30 seconds, that helps even more.

As someone in the professional laundry industry, the graying is caused by a process known as redeposition, or redep, when that happens there detergent does not have enough surfactant (bubbles) to carry away the soil. Enzymatic pre-treatment will greatly help on organic food stains, where specialty water-based (typically citrus-based) degreasers are needed for organic-oils and nearly all petroleum oil stains. If you really want that oil stain out go to a drycleaner. The "dry" in drycleaning is just not using water it's washed in highly specialized and controlled solvents.

Newly married in the '70's, my husband worked at a Steel Mill. Known in area Laundromats as 'Mill Clothing', with designated machines. Thinking detergents were basically the same, I was driven by cost and coupons for purchase. After years of noticeable differences in cleaning results, I started documenting and rating brand effectiveness. *Tide* was always the best and the ONLY brand I buy for almost 50 years. I don't buy 'Pods' b/c the size of my loads varies. I also don't buy liquid, too bulky and too much plastic. The worst of the name brands was 'All' (consistently).

Tide powder vs liquid? Which?

[@kameljoe21]

We buy liquid tide and use 1oz per load regardless of its size and have for a very long time. We have not noticed any change. The savings is huge as a couple of bottles will last a person a year. The big bottles that have 150 to 170 oz in them will give you 3 loads a week for a single bottle a year. Consider trying it for a while and quit over using the soap. You do know the same soap sold a decade ago had small amounts. They increased the size so that you waste more soap and spend more money.

I've spent years in appliance repair and found by users and self that Tide was the most trusted brand. Personally I use either Tide or Gain detergents in powder form. The only problem I found with liquid form is they over time slimes up the outer tub and outer basket, otherwise they're great. Best additives I use is a quarter cup or so of a Hydrogen Peroxide cleaner for washing and White Vinegar for rinse. The easiest way to add the Vinegar is using a Downy Ball. The Vinegar helps by softening, making colors brighter and eliminating foul odors. As usual, Thanks Todd

[@jamram9924]

When traveling and unable to shower. Add some white vinegar to wipes. Using that to wipe away odors from toes, armpits and crotch area makes a big difference.

Great video and comparison per usual. As someone with severely sensitive skin I would really like to see a follow up with free and clear/sensitive skin options. Both compared to each other and their standard formulas. At least with the Arm and Hammer (what I use) and the Tide options, since they were the top picks.

[@Avruthlelbh]

This reminds me of how fabric softener is one of the most shockingly problematic products on the market, which is a product I'd love to see you test. They're pretty much 99% marketing, generally adding a waxy layer to your clothes to *feel soft* without actually softening the clothes themselves, and in the long run (or if you use too much of it in a wash) you can actually make it HARDER to clean your clothes because that waxy layer gets in the way. Comparing fabric softeners to regular white vinegar (something that has shown to actually soften the fabric, rather than faking it, and no, there's no vinegar smell after washing) would be amazing to see, although I'm not entirely sure how you'd be able to test them.

[@dirtfarmer7472]

The comparison would be very subjective, but we trust Todd, he’d do the best he could

Quick note on the heavily perfumed Tyler wash from a guy who is very familiar with it: no one I know who uses it is actually using it for its power as a detergent. We use whatever unscented version of our preferred detergent and then add a capful of whichever Tyler scent we like. That stuff is strong. Depending on how much you use you can get a nice light scent or you can go full "Abercrombie&Fitch outlet store" on your clothes. And when you are only using it to add scent, one jug lasts plenty long to make the cost very minor. I think we had one jug last like a year and a half. Love the videos. You are a Godsend to all us data driven retail consumers.

Awesome video. I have another suggestion. Soak the stained t-shirts for 1 or 2 days in a bucket or tray with its respective detergents so that the detergent can cut through the stains further and do another wash. I do this for heavily stained clothes and it works 99% of the time.

[@floycewhite6991]

Women do that with lingerie. It also works to pour detergent straight on the stain and rub it in. Better if you catch the stain earlier, but it usually works even right before washing.

Love the video....Partial to Tide. However...When I was first married, I caught my mom using a bucket to clean some rags. She and my wife had been cleaning a house we had just purchased. She rinsed the rags with the sprayer from our garden hose. Filled the 5 gallon bucket half way, chucked in the dirty rags with healthy glug of Lestoil. Finished filling the bucket and stirred it with a stick every 15 mins for an hour. Dumped the water out, threw the rags in our washer with a tiny bit of Tide and they came out amazing. I use Lestoil on everything but axel grease.

[@CriticalTechReviews]

​@@007nadineL My 4.7cf 2020 LG does a better job than my 1988 whirlpool agitator ever did. FLs made a bad impression in the USA market because until the past ten years or so, they were small enough (4cf or less) that an average "big load" filled the whole drum almost, meaning there was no room for water/detergent to circulate, and no room for the clothes to tumble into themselves (which provides the agitation). People were also not told how important it is to KEEP THE DOOR OPEN WHEN NOT IN USE! And running a hot bleach load once or twice a month helps clean everything in general. My gasket is flawless after four years of absolute hell. Anyway tldr old front loaders were too small for the US market until semi recently and they run like shit when they're too full. If you don't overfill, they will work better than an agitator due to removing more water from the clothes during spin cycle, exchanging the water from them more effectively.

Pro tip, you can turn a small dial inside the top cover to allow more water into the front washers. Mine now fills up almost halfway up the glass and does a much better job at washing.

When I was working as a diesel mechanic we used Tide to clean out the cooling system of oil when the oil cooler leaked oil into the cooling system. We tried many different detergents but only Tide would clean out the system good enough.

Tide is definitely my go to for cleaning clothes, engines and radiators. 🙂
