gain washing powder

i can't really say right now isn't like or dislike because I haven't use it yet to see how good it does but once I do I will let you'll know how everyone goes with it and only thing I want it to do is get clothes clean and the powder makes good leather soap. I just put 2 ⭐'s for now until I try the laundry detergent out.

Gain is designed to provide exceptional cleaning and whitening, along with our Lift & Lock technology that is designed to provide long-lasting freshness. It traps Gain scent in the fibers of clothes and releases waves of freshness with the natural movements of the wearer.Some tips to get the best results with your Gain detergent are: be sure to not overload the washer, and to use the recommended amount of detergent for average water hardness, a little more in very hard water, a little less in very soft water. Also sort clothes by color and fabrics so that you can use the hottest water that is safe for the fabrics, and use the correct was cycle for the types of fabrics you are washing together. If you notice stains before washing, try pre-treating them.

The scent is WAY too strong!!!

Do you make an unscented version, because the scent on this stuff is completely over the top. It makes my whole bedroom smell like a dryer sheet and keeps me up at night. I tried an extra rinse and line drying, which helped a little, but nowhere near enough. I love the price and the cleaning power, but man, you guys have to tone down the smell.

Aroma Boost Stinks!!!

I used to love original Gain, that is, until they added aroma boost! It has an overwhelming, unpleasant smell to it now. It leaves my laundry with an odd after scent as well. This is in conjuction with using Gain original scented dryer sheets. I've switched to using Gain Apple Mango Tango as it's the only Gain detergent I can find in my area without aroma boost in it. Please give us an original scented option without the aroma boost!

BAD BUSINESS

I brought this a month ago & the product was very wet. They decided 2put my gain fabric softener n the same box with my gain washing powder. The gain fabric softener was leaking everywhere! They replaced the fabric softener but they didn't replace the gain washing powder! BAD BUSINESS it not my fault that the person put the fabric with the wash in the same box! That was DUMB! Now it's been about 2wks & I haven't received my washing powder!

TOO many bags!

Love using the pickup service, however 31 bags for 34 items is pretty excessive. Not only is it wasteful, but very inconvenient when it comes to carrying the bags into the house, and annoying as heck when you have to empty all those bags. Many items were from the same aisle, but in a separate bag.

Gain Ultra Power Sucks

Not pleased with the job it did on white clothes. The fragrance is overwhelming. ....way too strong. My advice is not to open this product in a confined area, IT STINKS and will take your breath away. I will not purchase or recommend this stuff...a waste of good money!

reply from GainTeam

We’re sorry you disliked this fragrance and felt it didn't do a great job on your whites. At Gain, our laundry detergents are designed to provide good overall cleaning with Ahhhhmazing scents. Detergents help water to penetrate fabrics and then loosen dirt from them. They also suspend dirt in the water so it doesn't go back onto the fabric. It is possible the soil from the garments has redeposited on the fabric. Be sure not to overload the washer and to always use the recommended amount of detergent for amount of soil on clothes. We also realize that scent preferences can vary by individual. We hope you’ll try a different Gain product, and we’d love to hear from you if you’d like some further help. Please give our Gain Team a call at 1-800-888-4246 Monday -- Friday from 9AM -- 6PM EST.

Formula Change?

I've notice that the original scent has changed and not for the better in my opinion. No one in my family likes the new scent and will be shopping for a new laundry detergent. Really wish they would go back to the original formula or give customers the option to choose.
