Disappointing Experience with 2L VESTAR Laundry Detergent from Fix Price

summarizeEditor's Summary

I'm a laundry enthusiast who's tried my fair share of detergents. Fix Price's 2L VESTAR "Universal" laundry detergent from their professional line sounded promising, but my experience was a letdown. The detergent's tiny dosage and lack of stain-fighting prowess left me underwhelmed. I'm not one to complain, but this product just didn't deliver on its promises. I paid 212 rubles, which is a great value for money, but it's not worth the hassle of dealing with subpar performance. The detergent's fragrance-free, which is a plus for those with sensitive skin, and the packaging is sleek and modern. However, the detergent's texture is too liquidy and feels cheap. I was expecting more from Fix Price's professional line.

Disappointing Experience with 2L VESTAR Laundry Detergent from Fix Price
I'm constantly doing laundry - my kids go through clothes like crazy, and I do my own laundry too. It's a never-ending cycle. I've tried all sorts of detergents over the years, from budget-friendly options to pricier brands. I'm not picky, and I've even splurged on some higher-end brands when I felt like it. Fix Price is one of my go-to spots for laundry detergent - they have a great selection, and I love trying out new products!
Today, I'm reviewing the 2-liter VESTAR "Universal" laundry detergent from their professional line.
VESTAR "Universal"I picked this up at Fix Price for a great price - the tag said 199 rubles, but I ended up paying 212.
THE AMOUNT USED is super tiny - I mean, who writes that?! Apparently, it's supposed to be a maximum of 120 mL per load.
The detergent itself is super liquidy, almost like water. It's got a really interesting blue color, too.
VESTAR "Universal"It's got almost no scent, which is a plus in my book.
My experience with it.
I've been using this detergent for a while now, and I've been running it at 40 degrees most of the time. I've got a load going on right now that's a great example - it's a whole washing machine full of colorful clothes.
I've increased the dose by two times, and I've got a ton of clothes in the machine.
VESTAR "Universal" - full loadI'm dosing it with a cap from the fabric softener dispenser - it's got about 60-80 mL in there.
VESTAR "Универсальный"I was so impressed with the amount of detergent I got out of this washing machine. I filled it up with four caps, which works out to around 200-220 ml of liquid. I did this because I'd previously used the VESTAR "Универсальный" gel and was disappointed with the results. I wanted to see how it would perform with a double dose.
I washed a load of cotton at 40 degrees for 1 hour and 40 minutes.
The gel foams up nicely.
VESTAR "Универсальный"The before and after photos of the clothes speak for themselves. The stains on the clothes didn't come out as well as I'd hoped, even worse than the previous time I used this gel.
Стирка VESTAR "Универсальный" ДО и ПослеIt did a decent job on the kids' jacket, but it wasn't a complete success. The marker stain came out a bit lighter.
VESTAR "Универсальный" ДО
VESTAR "Универсальный" ПОСЛЕBedding is another story - I washed it on 60 degrees, and it took 1 hour and 50 minutes. The result wasn't great, either - there were still stains on the sheet.
Conclusion
I'm definitely not buying this gel again. It's only good for freshening up clean clothes, not for dealing with sweat smells or tough stains. I even tried increasing the temperature and doubling the amount of gel, but it didn't make a difference.
The only thing that's appealing is the price for two liters, which is 212 rubles. But if you use 200ml, it's enough for about 10 washes.
So, the final verdict is that it's an ineffective and quickly consumed product!
I've tried to be fair and give it a chance, but unfortunately, it just didn't live up to my expectations. If you're looking for a reliable laundry detergent that can tackle tough stains, I'd recommend looking elsewhere.
On the other hand, if you're just looking for something to freshen up your clothes and don't mind using a lot of detergent, then this might be the product for you.
Overall, I'd give this product 2 out of 5 stars. It's not the worst product I've ever used, but it's definitely not the best either.
