Looks
a good product, about time there was something that removes bacteria from
clothes. Nice packaging, easy to see and very clear. The instructions were very
clear, simple and easy to understand. This product is of great quality for
something that’s the first of its kind. This product lasts really well, great
value for money. I would buy this product as my daughter gets all kind of messy
and good to know that most of the bacteria will be removed. Very good product,
I was unsure of the colour at first as its blue and thought that certain items
may take on the colour but everything I have used it on has been perfectly fine
so nothing to worry about. The product gives the items a nice fresh smell after
washing. I have even used it on delicates and wool items which have all been
fine. We all worry about removing bacteria from our hands so it’s good that
there is something for clothes. Maxine Moore

Like
the idea and "clean” looking packaging. White background with clear bold
writing. Feels like it’s very "clean”. Clear, simple instruction which were
easy to follow. I love the concept of this in that it kills bacteria at low
temperatures. With having to wash my daughters clothes at 30 degrees adding
this feels like you are killing the bacteria that would only normally be killed
at higher temperatures. Smells nice as well. Difficult to tell if this is good
value for money as you can’t see / feel
/ smell anything so you have to take the manufacturers word that it is doing
what It says it’s doing. As I couldn’t physically "see” any benefit from this.
The clothes do not smell any different and don’t look any different so it’s
difficult to see / feel / smell the benefit. Love the idea but would like this
kind of product integrated with a fabric softener. I think that if this
type of product was integrated into a fabric softener I would be more inclined
to buy it. As I am not a scientist, I have to take the manufacturers word that
this is actually working and doing what it claims to do. Marie Reynolds – Lilly 17 Months

Looks
and smells like a fabric softener. Very
little to differentiate from a traditional fabric softener (bottle was white
with little colour). The consistency was
runnier than I was expecting. I was
initially surprised it went in the fabric softener compartment of the washing machine;
I was expecting it to be something that went in the drum with the washing. Simple
packaging, not particularly eye catching.
In line with most fabric softeners. Instructions were clear and short
although it didn’t specify whether this product was to be used instead of
fabric softener or whether it could be used in conjunction. Cap is used to measure the liquid so easy to
use the right amount. Difficult to tell
/ measure whether it is effective in terms of killing bacteria. Clothes came out of the wash clean and
smelling fresh. I also didn’t notice a
difference in terms of softness (I thought the clothes maybe wouldn’t be as
soft without traditional fabric softener). The product is slightly more
expensive than fabric softener. I
probably wouldn’t use for every wash, maybe only for particularly dirty washes
(bibs, muddy clothes etc.). You only
need a small amount per wash so the bottle does last a good length of time,
even when doing washings multiple times a day. I would probably buy purely to
use for kids clothes, underwear and towels.
I like the peace of mind that bacteria is being killed off while still
only washing at 30/40 degrees. Think it’s a good product if you are
particularly environmentally friendly and prefer to wash on a cool washing
setting. It’s
also nice to have the peace of mind that germs are being effectively killed on
your children’s clothes. Nothing else really to add in addition to what’s been
discussed above. Does what it says on
the tin, smells fresh and provides peace of mind. Alana Souter – William 18
