Persil reinvented
Review of Persil (Washing Liquid) by
petitesquirt
Advantages: Very convenient
Disadvantages: Slow dissolving wrapping
...with adverts of the new Persil capsules. Out of curiosity, I went shopping at Sainsbury, and found them on special. Since then, Persil capsules have been a constant in my household.
Persil colour capsules comes in a box of 20. This is sufficient for 10 washes. A capsule contains liquid detergent in a water soluble plastic wrapping. The capsule dissolves upon contact with water, both hot and cold.
According to Persil, my box of bio colour capsules ...

Green flying saucers on Ciao
Review of Persil (Washing Liquid) by
anjib
Advantages: can put them straight in the drum
Disadvantages: price, washing ability, can break if not careful
...the most awful advert for persil washing capsules.
Television and billboard advertising followed and soon I was sick and tired of the things. However.... being a bit of a sucker for new cleaning products and an already user of persil I thought I would look out for them in the supermarkets.
When I next went shopping and saw that they cost about £3 for a box of 20 (I think) I thought no way, my persil tablets cost under £2 per box of 18. A while ...

Persil Capsules....Take us to your wallet
Review of Persil (Washing Liquid) by
SaikatSantra
Advantages: Very easy to use
Disadvantages: Doesn't clean problem areas well, Quite dear
I decided to try Persil capsules after a 50p coupon suddenly found its way to my door and I must admit I'm not greatly impressed with them! Even with the discount, a box of 20 capsules cost over £2 - so they had to do really well to convince me to keep using them...
GOOD Points: Well, they're easy to use. You just put 2 (0r 3 if it's a heavily soiled load) straight onto your washing in the drum. No scoops to measure and no little bag to bother ...

Black is the new Black
Review of Persil (Washing Liquid) by
Fairy_Kisses
Advantages: Keeps clothes looking new and really fresh smell
Disadvantages: A tad pricey
...spotted a new product from Persil called Black Velvet.
I had not seen it advertised on T.V so decided to pick it up and take a look.
Its a new detergent specifically designed to clean and care for black and dark clothes. They claim its different because it actively helps to keep your blacks as black as new.
Well worth a try I thought, because some of my black and dark clothes have a grey look after two washes, I just hate it when that happens.
Almost ...

Laundry made easy
Review of Persil (Washing Liquid) by
Louise90
Advantages: Easy and quick to use
Disadvantages: Expensive
Persil capsules are the newest thing on the market now. They're little capsules in the shape of a UFO, with persil washing liquid contained in them.
I paid £2.95 for 20 capsules, which is 10 washes. It's expensive, I know, but as they are new, I thought I'd give them a go. It does say on the box to use 2 capsules in a light to normal soiling wash, and 3 in a heavy soiling wash.
Using them couldn't be simpler really. All you do is place your ...

Persil Capsules - Don't believe the hype!
Review of Persil (Washing Liquid) by
micksheff
Advantages: Very easy to use and easy to store
Disadvantages: expensive
...I had tended to use Persil soap powder and to be honest I think I will stick with it.
The capsules come in a nice attractive little box, which is small and compact and ideal for the small cupboard under my sink, a welcome change I thought from the large bulky box, which I usually struggle to find a place for, but a word of warning don’t be fooled by clever packaging.
My first negative observation was the price, at £2.60 for a box of twenty capsules ...
