ASDA Premium Washing up Liquid Lemon > Reviews (3)

One of my pet hates is washing the dishes, if I could get away with using paper plates and plastic cups I would, but I can't so I don't. That means I have to purchase washing up liquids. I tend to stock up on washing up liquid if I have a chance, it's not like I'm never going to stop having a reason to use it. My washing up liquid store currently contains this Lemon Fresh washing up liquid from Asda.

Packaging

The bottle is almost rectangular with a cut out neck making it easy to grip when pouring. The bottle is see-through with a red lid at the top, I really like see through bottles as it's so much easier to see how much liquid is left, the liquid in this bottle is yellow. The front of the bottle states the product name, and the back states all ingredients and directions. It also states the normal warnings.

Lemon fresh

When I am preparing to wash up I squeeze a 50p piece size dollop into the bowl then start running the water. I have a tap that moves so as the water is running I swish the tap around and this makes the washing up liquid bubble up nicely. The lemon scent is also present as the water is running, it's a nice subtle scent, not overpowering in the slightest.

The washing up liquid makes light work of cleaning my dishes, although only a small amount of liquid is used. When washing big food stained pots and pans I tend to leave these to soak in the water after I have finished the other dishes and it releases the stains quite easily, with of course some good old elbow grease.

The only problem I have with this washing up liquid is that it is hard to get all of the contents out, at the end of the bottle there is always a stubborn bit of liquid that refuses to leave the bottle, I don't think this is this products fault though, a lid at the bottom would be nice. I get round this problem by removing the lid and adding a touch of water.

Overall

This washing up liquid currently costs 75p for a 500ml bottle. I think this is fantastic value for money. I've found it isn't as bubbly as more expensive brands but it still does what it is meant to and washes my dishes and pots and pans with a nice subtle lemon scent. I don't feel the need to change my washing up brand just yet!
