WHY PAY MORE? – Drawn to the idea of cheaper washing detergent, I started using ALDI detergent, my family all suffered skin irritation and contact dermatitis from ALDI powder. I later found out this is very common. After that incident I put away the idea of cheaper detergent and had been bouncing between OMO and biozet/cold power depending on the sales. I… Read more

stumbled upon this and gave it a smell, not bad, so thought I'd give it a shot. I can now report I won't ever go back to more expensive brands. I've got a baby, a toddler and sweaty hard working husband, no issues at all. Clothes are clean and clothes smell clean. It lifts dirt and minor stains, tough stains need extra work, but tough stains always needed extra work, even when using brands x 10 the price. Just for fun I calculated what I was spending before vs what I am spending now. On half price detergent (cold power, OMO etc) spend was approx. 0.25c a load, this detergent is 0.02c a load!!! ME = 1, Rising cost of living = 0

Amazing for only $1.50!!! – This liquid is amazing, for the price I can’t believe how fresh and nice my clothes come out! Why pay for OMO at $26 a tub when you can get this?! Show details

Great for the price – For the price it's great, it has a nice smell and gets clothes clean. I'd recommend it to anyone. It reminds me of Aura liquid that was around in the 1980/90s. Show details

Great Discovery – Holy heck, I'm stoked to have discovered this laundry liquid. I've been using a more expensive laundry brand for a couple of years now. But, for the price, I've been overjoyed with this product's value; my clothes come out clean, soft and smelling faintly fresh. Would highly recommend giving it a shot! Show details

Reasonable laundry liquid – I find the Coles lemon scented 2litre laundry liquid very good. I find it helps get rid of strong smells when I soak clothes on a bucket. An Australian made product which can be used in hot or cold washing. Such a great price. Not sure whether it is palm oil free though. Show details

I am impressed – What a great products the Laundry Liquid and Powders are . I buy both. With the liquid for $1.50 it works very well for general everyday washing. The scent of the liquid is just sutle enough. I have senitive skin and I have no problems with this product. Actually I get quite disappointed if the product is not on the shelve when I go shopping… Read more

some days. When I need to wash my son's work clothes I use the Coles laundry powder. He works for a tree lopping company so he comes home with tree sap and heavy dirt stains on his clothes. I am impressed with how much the powder removes considering how dirty he comes home some days. I can tell by the way my son looks at his works shirts he is impressed too. It can't remove all stains but neither would other more expensive products remove these permanant stains. Great value again with the laundry powder too. I recommend both Coles Laundry liquid and Laundry powder.

Great value – Powder dissolves easily and cleans all types of fabrics really well with no strong scent in all water temperatures especially in cold water. This powder works better than the expensive brands This a keeper! Show details

Affordable and works ok – for $1.50 it does good work. Pleasant fragrance and clothes are super clean. I did not get any skin allergies. However, I am not sure these are good for very delegate dresses. Show details

Very good value for $1.50 – 10 people in my house, clothes don't get very dirty, more sweat than anything but have 3 young boys and baby, so it cleans the clothes well on warm wash, plus I use Coles wash booster in each load as well, no sensitivity issues

AMAZING – My husband is a dairy farmer and this product is amazing. Removes all stains and there are A LOT, DAILY! I also have young children so stains galore. This product really surprised me and I am super impressed. Only $6 you can't go wrong. I also add the coles brand of nappy san. The cheapest version one. Can't remember the name but those together work a treat! Thanks Coles

GREAT – The product amazed me for its price and cleaning power! I use a dash in each load, everything comes out smelling and looking devine. Highly recommend. From the person that would never use no name brand washing liquid before now.

Well done Coles! – I am on a very tight budget and Coles Washing Powder 3.5kilo ($3.70) does the job for me and with approx. 40 washes at 9cents wash, it can't be beaten in hot or cold water. I always rinse with a rinse aid which gives my wash a clean fresh smelling wash. I live alone and on an age pension. Very well done, Coles and top marks from me - since… Read more

using Coles Washing Powder I have never been disappointed. Every so often I put whites into Napisan for the white gleam only to all whites - and I have had to do this with expensive washing detergent brands too. Go Coles! :)

Not bad at all – I bought this coles smartbuy from coles supermarkets after reading these reviews. At first I thought the price will severely compromise quality however, after pouring this blue soft clothes washing liquid into the washing machine following the manufacturer directions I was surprised it easily got rid of the sweat and soft dirt on the clothes. I… Read more

would recommend this clothes washing liquid to anyone especially those who are on a budget .

This product would also be excellent for washing towels

I love it – I always use this laundry powder. It is cheap but it is great. Before I did use some brand name but I believe this powder works better than them and clean my clothes much better. I use it with washing machine and when I want to wash small clothes with hand.

Cheap; good for people on a tight budget – This is a pretty basic laundry powder that does the job. It's cheap and in my experience is always available at Coles. I don't have terrible body odor so I find it cleans clothes & removes smells pretty well. For a uni student like me on a tight budget, it's affordable and works fine.

Good – i use the 3kg bulk laundry powder and find it does the job just as well as other budget friendly laundry powders. it doesnt remove strong smells so i add one teaspoon of eucalyptus oil and that gets rid of the odours, and is much cheaper alternative to buying a more expensive brand. for tough stains, i add a squirt of shampoo. the two products… Read more

combined get rid of all types of stains. so i guess, the product is good a good base product, but needs additional help to remove hard stains and odours. does the job doesnt remove smells very well, needs a bit of help to remove tough stains

Good – If you are on a tight budget then there is nothing wrong with this homebrand laundry powder. It does the job adequately enough and while it might not get rid of the toughest stains a little bit of soaking will help anyway. It does have a strong smell about it but for what you pay, I think that it is an alright product and will do the job well… Read more

enough. It is always available at Coles stores when I have gone looking for it in the past. Cheap and does the job reasonably well. Good for those on tight budgets. The strong smell.

Bad – Someone else purchased this detergent in my household as they were on a very tight budget. I used it a few times and found it to clean clothes on a satisfactory level however it was nothing special. I got the impression that the detergent was very cheap and possibly had some harsh chemicals in it from the smell (although there was also a lot of… Read more

fragrance to cover it up).

I would not purchase this detergent myself as I prefer to spend a little extra money and get something that is less toxic. A cheap laundry detergent that will do the job on a very tight budget. I perceive this detergent could contain some harsh chemicals.
