Equator laundry detergent

18 years ago

Hi everybody, I just wonder if anyone of you has any experience w/ Equator laundry detergent. I just ordered me box, always wanted to try it. Even thou I love the CS, I feel like I should have something else on hand just in case. 5 lb box is 30 bucks and they say it is suitable for 200 washes. It was formulated for FL. I wonder maybe some of you girls here might try it, maybe it would help w/ the suds too. Anyway, I will let you know more after I get it and use it.

    I've never heard of this brand; is it sold online, and/or is it available in stores?

    I like to buy Sears Ultra Plus HE detergent, which comes in three formulas: Stain-Fighting, w/Oxi-Clean, and w/fabric softener. I've used the first two and really like them.

    I paid $12.50 (which was half price) for a bucket of the stain-fighting formula which gives at least 275 washes, more if you use less than a scoop - which most people here seem to do.

    I paid less than $10 for a bucket of the Oxi-Clean formula, which gives at least 120 washes - again, more than that for people who don't use the whole scoop.

    Mara, Equator appliances started it. I know about it for 8 years. It is made for FL. I found it at combowasherdryer.com w/ free shipping. It is on line product only as far as my search went. I am courious about how it will perform. It is biodegradable. And fairly cheap too. If I like it I definately stock up on it. More you buy, more you save.
    I just thought some of you gals might want to try it too.That's why I posted it and was hoping someone already used it.

    I went to that site; the washers are VERY small - they have less than 2 cu ft capacity. If you have a bigger washer (mine is more than twice that big), I wonder if you'd need to use more detergent than what is recommended for the Equator/Deco/Trion washers?

    Here is the info about equator detergent:
    sodium carbonate
    sodium sulfate
    sodium borate
    sodiumsodium alkyl aryl sulfonate
    linear alcohol ethoxylate
    coconut diethanolamide
    The results are pretty much same as w/ CS but w/ half of the cost.

    I have used Equatory LaundryPacs for last 4 years and love them. I have a lot of allergies to detergents and had trouble finding one that I didn't react to. The clothes get clean and I don't react to this detergent. I get the unscented.
