What powder do you use?

I love all the ecostore products. THe powder sounds expensive but if it's anything like their other products then def worth it. I use the liquid laundry detergent on DDs clothes so she doesn't have any chemical stuff near her skin. I also wash her terry flats in it. I only use a small amount and a litre is doing me ages. I use about 2 tablespoons per wash.

Has anyone used the Planet Ark stuff from woolies? It's powder. 1kg $12 pretty expensive stuff.

If i start using this on MCN's does that mean i always have to wash bub's clothes and MCN's with this?

I've only ever washed my MCN's with liquid and I use Earth's Choice - it's so cheap too about $2 a litre. I have never had smelly nappies either. If they start to be less absorbant then I do a strip wash. Also I try to line dry outside where possible so the sunlight helps with any residual smells.

I thought liquid was best. It is generally more environmentally friendly, no nasty fillers.
I use Amolin.

Renstar- I tried that planet ark one on normal clothes, didn't really rate it. Kept finding it undissolved on my clothes, and i have a front loader so not like i was sprinkling it on the clothes IYKWIM

i hated the planet ark one too.

I use earth's choice and havent had any problems. I dry outside in the sun and we havent had smelly nappies yet. If/when we get smelly nappies I will have to go to the plumber and get a longer hose for my wahing machine though! the hose doesnt reach the tap
