Advantages: Great scent, good cleaning powder, great price. Disadvantages: None.
I am staying at my Mums at present and Daz is the soap powder that she has currently purchased. The box is red, white & blue and stands out on the soap powder shelves as quite a recognisable product. The box has a handy pour spout which you just pull out of one side and this helps to pour the soap powder directly in to the washing machine drawer. The soap powder has a standard fresh, clean scent to it and nothing that I could put my finger on. The box states that it contains enough for 10 washes but my Mum says that she usually makes this last a good 15-20 washes as she rarely has soiled washing or even complete loads as for the most part she lives alone and just has her clothes & bedding to wash. I did not actually measure out a particular amount and just sprinkled it in to the drawer, I would definitely say that I used far less than 10 ...
Advantages: Cost effective and does the job! Disadvantages: None in my opinion
Review of Asda Smart Price Biological WashingPowder
I first purchased Asda's own brand biological washingpowder a few months ago as part of my budget cutting exercise. Asda do various washingpowders and this review covers the basic range version, known as 'Smartprice'. The powder comes in two sizes, 3kg and 1kg . I am reviewing the 3kg size.

Advantages: Soft and gentle, not irritating to the skin Disadvantages: none
Over the years I have tried several washingpowders, some have been good, some not so good. But I can honestly say that Persil is by far the best I have tried. There are Biological, Colours Tablets, liquid, I myself always go for the powder, - not for any special reason, it's just my choice. Biological is good for whites, obviously colour is good for colours, especially if you have items of clothing that are special. If you have children, who get mucky in the garden, or eating their meals, it is ideal,it removes stains, leaving clothes spotless. The fragrances are all lovely, lots to choose from, and clothes are left soft and smooth. I personally am not affected by biological powders, but appreciate that some people may be. I have used Persil for several years now, and would highly recommend it. ...
