3 X Dri Pak Soda Crystal, 1kg

Useful addition to cleaning. I use primarily added to washing detergent to help remove stains and it has always proven to be effective and brighten whites.

Brilliant for cleaning washing appliances such as the washing machine, dishwasher. No need to buy expensive formula's, this works better

I’ve ordered these three times now. They’re useful for lots of things - unblocking drains, cleaning, deodorising, and I mainly use them in the washing machine because we’ve got hard water and it helps reduce detergent use. Price is reasonable too. Odourless. One time though, the whole bag turned up like a rock. I had to go outside with a hammer to break it up, and even then some chunks were too hard to crush by hand. Bit of a pain. Just to note: this isn’t the same as bicarbonate of soda. Washing soda = sodium carbonate (this), baking soda = sodium bicarbonate, and “green bleach” is sodium percarbonate. You can sometimes get it cheaper at B&Q, or in bulk (4 x 1kg) from the same Amazon seller if you’ve got storage space. I gave it 4 stars because it usually works well, but the solid-bag issue was annoying and could happen again.

Bicarbonate of soda, or soda crystals is a greener way of tackling your domestic chores. A few spoonfuls in hot water with some liquid soap will remove grease off things if you can leave it overnight even better. I have also just killed all the green moss and black spots on my patio with a mix of this and white vinegar. Plop some in your clothes wash and negates the need for added stuff to keep your washing machine gunk free. I also leave some with some white vinegar in the drum after my wash and my machine never smells. great stuff. loads more uses if you check out the internet.

Just what I was looking for

I used this product for everything in the house. I highly recommend.

I have used this brand of soda crystals for more years than I care to remember because it is a natural product and it works! This is the first time I ordered this from here but I have to say that I am amazed it is 100% ROCK SOLID and no, it wasn’t left out and got damp at my end! Is it old stock that they know has become damp and that’s why it’s a good price for two bags? If that is the case, then it should be in the description. Honestly, I have had to beat it within an inch of its life to try and get it to break up so that I can use it!! There’s no way I can scoop out a table spoonful, it’s definitely one lump or two. So my 3 stars is for the product as I know it is excellent but if I could give a separate star rating for the condition of the product when I came to use it, then it wouldn’t get any stars! Very disappointed!

useful products for my kitchen and washing

It arrived as 1 solid brick - not useable- i couldnt smash it into a crystaline powder ! Absolute waste of money
