Hi has anyone tried costco kirkland laundry softner , is it very strongly sented, thick, block up pipes and really last 200 washes ????
Thank you in advance

We have used it for a few years now it is very good,more a clinical smell than the woodland flower type stuff you see in Tesco etc but last's for ages and has never clogged our Hotpoint,i think it is a bit thicker than Lenor but that's ok as i have had thinner ones just run through. After it is used the container can be washed out and used for other things,i put my car screen wash in it,much easier to get into the bottle on the car than what it comes in,always thinking always thinking :rotfl:

Thanks I think the one advertised online is a lavender scent in a purple bottle is that the one you have, do you use it along side their own laundry powder ?

Yes i use the washing powder too i think it's excellent,the container can be washed out and used to store things in
Second pic down is the conditioner i use.

I have used the softener and washing powder and both great value as far as I am concerned.

Is that the lavender softner 200 wash or a different one. I like lavendar fragrance on my bath towels and bed linen but not sure how strong it is so wouldnt want it on my clothes if it were a strong scent IYSWIM

I'm allergic to lavender so -No just the simple own brand one in the blue container.
