I have been shopping with Approved Food for a while now. Here is the order which arrived last week
You’ll notice on the right, a heap of boxes of laundry tablets. When I put these goodies away, I tipped all the tabs into my big plastic lidded box, and put the boxes into recycling [apart from one, which I kept for instructions etc] First wash – I did what it said [put tablets to back of drum, before putting in the washing] and then came back later, when wash cycle completed, to find the tablets – still whole- showing through the door. Perhaps they don’t work at 40ºC? I broke the tabs into quarters, put them again to the back of the machine, tried again at 60ºC. Oh dear…
I went to the Time / Gumption website- but it is no longer there. The company has been dissolved [even though it’s tablets haven’t]
I took the tablets out, crushed them with a spoon and then dissolved them in boiling water. This time they have washed the laundry, satisfactorily.
I’ve emailed AF and suggested they put a note on the website, pointing out that you need to crush and dissolve the tablets before use. I shall let you know if/when they reply!
I find that with most tablets. I buy liquid tabs from Aldi they are great.
ReplyDeleteUntil I got these, I was using Aldi 'regular' tablets. I don't seem to get on with the liquid ones.
ReplyDeleteI make my own laundry powder,I have never used fancy pods.

I use good old Surf liqid, and measure it very carefully.
ReplyDeleteI bought those tablets and they were terrible!!! Ive just finished them and the kids school shirts remained grubby on the collars, they never ever dissolved even on a 90 degree wash!!! i was very very disappointed with them(and had to stick with them because I had bought loads of boxes as iot was such a good deal!!!! I have now bought surf which was on offer and my washing is sparkingly clean and smell lush!!!

I think I shall be doing lots of crushing and swishing on laundry days for a few weeks - I too thought I was getting a good deal. AF have sent an automated reply saying my query will be dealt with shortly!
