Always wanting to find more natural (and less chemical) ways to clean, especially laundry, I've been wanting to try those oxygenated laundry products. I've tried Oxy Clean laundry spray, and found it doesn't work as well as, say, Spray-n-Wash. So I wondered....has anyone tried the laundry detergents? Do they work as well as they say? Or not as good as they're cracked up to be, like I found the pre-soak to be?

Most modern synthetic cleaning products are based on age-old formulas using natural ingredients that were passed down through the generations because the chemistry was right. Going back to the original naturally-derived ingredients is a way to make cleaning products that work, don’t pollute, and save you money. Most are found in your kitchen cupboards. Mix and match with well-chosen and environmentally-friendly green cleaning products found in health food stores, and you can easily and simply transform your home into a nontoxic and healthy haven.
Nontoxic cleaning can give you a deep feeling of gratification in knowing that your family's health is protected, and that your home is a place for your bodies to rest and recuperate rather than promote harm.
Make your own non-toxic cleaning kit.
All the methods totally work try them.
Peace

I use mine with every load and I have 5 kids, I do use oxy clean,( I use it along with sensitive formula of Tide) and I like it even better than colorsafe bleach. I don't know why others have had issues, maybe they are not using enough? But I follow the directions and what I really like to use it for is a pre-treating soak. You can buy a small container of it for like $3.00 and that way you don't have to feel like you wasted your money if it somehow doesn't work for you. Alot of stain experts use hydrogen peroxide to take stains such as lipstick and grease and blood out and pen, oxiclean does just as good as a job for me, I have good results with the spray too, but I also let it sit and rub it in for a minuet I have gotten out blood, food, makeup, and pen with these products... so that is my experience~
Good Luck!

I've tried several brands of the miracle oxygen cleaners but I havent had any of them work, not the ones that will clean your floors, or laundry, apolstrey, none of them.
If you find any that work let me know, i suggest baking soda in your laundry on hot with regular detergent.
Sorry I can't help more :(

The OxyClean concentrated stain remover works well if you add it to your other detergent, but the detergent alone doesn't work that well.

They're not as good as they're cracked up to be. Don't waste your money.

It doesn't work on everything, e.g., ballpoint pen ink doesn't come out.
