Biodegradable detergent for HE & regular washers.
BuyI'm a big fan of Planet's powdered laundry detergent, since it does a great job cleaning my stinky technical outdoor clothing (like poly pro and polyester.) So I thought I'd try this newer product, Planet 2X HE liquid laundry detergent, even though I have a regular washing machine. (The Planet 2X HE is low-sudsing so it can be used in High Efficiency [HE] machines.)
I'm very happy with the cleaning power of Planet 2X HE. I'd say it is neck and neck with their powdered detergent. "2x" means it is concentrated, so you use a lot less of it than a regular detergent. It is important to measure the amount using the cap, otherwise you're wasting your money and detergent. The only criticism I have is that it is hard to see the lines inside the cap. But what the heck, it is not rocket science, just put a little bit in and call it good.
Like other Planet products, it is biodegradable, hypoallergenic, not tested on animals, doesn't bio-accumulate etc. There is no scent, so my athsmatic lungs like that. If you have really tough cleaning problems like vehicle grease or grass stains, you can pre-treat them with the 2x. Your other choice I suppose is to use a mainstream detergent that has nasty chemicals in it. Otherwise, I'd have to say Planet 2X Ultra Liquid Laundry Detergent, HE is right up there with my other favorite "green" laundry detergent, Planet Ultra Powdered Laundry Detergent.
