Do any of you have or use this product? I saw this product in the grocery store yesterday and wondered if it really works?

I have two boys ages 6 & 4 who know how to get their clothes dirty. I have been having some troulbe getting some stains out and thought I might give this a try.

Just wondering if it is worth the extra money for each load of laundry that I do.

I googled it and am getting mixed reviews.

Thanks

I have wondered about this product too...I will probably eventually try it. I do not know of anyone who has tried it either.

I have not had a lot of luck with the OxiClean products. I use either Dawn (the original blue) or Fels Naptha. Fels is great for grass stains and the Dawn works on grease stains. I found that Fels can clean the white football and baseball pants. It takes elbow grease, but the results are good.

Today's paper had a little mention of the ball...recommended it for college kids and those who have to schlep their dirty duds to laundromats. It's probably not cost effective if you're just washing your stuff in your own home.

I use Oxiclean...but not the ball. I like it and do think it helps. I usually pre-treat with it and sometimes with Dawn as well. I also bought some Goo Gone for the really greasy stuff (Yes, my son thinks his shirt is a napkin - drives me crazy!). I throw a scoop or so of oxiclean in with all my whites and found it to be very good for the hubby's scrubs which can be kind of gross. I might check out the Fels Neptha because I do have a hard time getting those baseball pants as white as I'd like.

Ran out of my usual shout or oxyclean and used the resolve carpet spot spray on the kids football pants and not only got out the stains from this weekends game but I think I also got everything out from prior years. Worked fabulously without eating the material!

ANY AND ALL POSTS TO THIS THREAD SHOULD BE IN ALL CAPS TO DENOTE YELLING, SO AS TO KEEP IN THE SPIRIT OF THE MONUMENTALLY ANNOYING OXY-CLEAN COMMERCIALS.
