I was recently given the chance to try out and review Purex plus Oxi and Zout. This was the review couldn’t have come at better time! Here is my stain story.
I received my Henkel Insiders Pack early on a Friday morning hand delivery by Canada Post. Not even 30 minutes after I discovered the Purex Pack on our front porch, did one of our lovely pups jump on my WHITE bed sheets with their MUDDY paws. I’m not sure which one it was however, I’m looking more in Ella’s direction. They were awfully small prints and she just “seemed” guilty.
Anyways, there I was left open-mouthed, staring at what I thought were ruined bed sheets when I remembered – the Purex!
So, I took the sheets off the bed and trudged downstairs. Grabbed the unopened bottle and headed straight for the washing machine.
Design
As soon as I opened the jug of Purex detergent, I was in love. It smelled so fresh and so clean. I just wanted to curl up with a soft pillow and smell that smell all day LOL Okay – back to reality.
It is a high efficiency detergent and is suitable for any style of washing machine. One of the best things about this detergent is you can also use it as a pre-treater for stains – and muddy dog paw prints.
Durability
This one is hard. How to rate the durability of a liquid laundry detergent? Is it even possible? I’m thinking no. So instead, I will discuss the durability of the bottle.
The lid to the jug was safety sealed so it didn’t accidentally open during transportation. I like that. We also had a totally unintentional test – during the spin cycle of a load that Ryan put on (of course!), the jug of detergent shook off the top of the washer and landed on the floor. Big bang but no big mess – phew!
Although we got lucky, I STRONGLY recommend not leaving your detergent on top of the machine while its running LOL
Does It Work?
Sure does! I’m kind of kicking myself now because in the flurry to get the sheets washed on an already busy morning, I didn’t take “Before & After” photos for this review. I know, blogger fail & shame on me.
However, I swear up and down that this stuff really does work!
After pre-treating, I did a basic wash & dry cycle. The sheets came out brilliantly clean, smelling super fresh (I didn’t even use fabric softener) and feeling extra soft too!
Dollar Value
The cost of Purex Plus Oxi & Zout varies depending on the size you get. Here are the regular prices at Walmart.
33 Load Size @ $5.87 = $0.17 per load
55 Load Size @ $8.84 = $0.16 per load
83 Load Size @ $12.73 = $0.15 per load (currently on sale $7.97 making it $0.09/load)
Their prices are less than 2/3 of the leading brand and the value is 100%! Combine a coupon with a great sale and you can surely get Purex at less than $0.10 per load!
I would DEFINITELY recommend this product to anyone who asked!
