“Mighty good ”

★★★★★

written by CRISTINAROCHA_ on 27/08/2013

I as given Persil small and mighty by Persil to test . I have to say , I had seen in at the supermarket shelves and wanted to try but thought was expensive . However after this last month I will definitely buy a bottle to keep in the cupboard for those stubborn stains . I don't really fancy the smell when pre treating stains , but I do like the smell it leaves on the clothes after washing . It's bio detergent , lifts the colours and does the job , it actually takes the stains away . I have tried on my husbands work clothes , on my daughter clothing as well and I'm really happy with the result . The colours are brighter and the whites are whiter . Would definitely recommend.

“Very Impressive!!”

★★★★★

written by stevein on 16/08/2013

I was given a sample of this by Persil and despite my reservations as to the effectiveness of such a small amount of concentrate in a wash, it did surpirse me. I had a t shirt that was originally white and had, in the previous wash, been accidentally thrown in with some beige trousers and was now a beige t shirt. I was not expecting anything spectacular when I put it in with a whites was but was impressed to see that it did lose the beige colour with the Small and Mighty!!! It did take two washes but it is now a white t-shirt again. I would honestly recommend this to anyone. Even though the price can seem on the high side, unless you can get it on offer somewhere, I would say it was worth the extra.

“I expected so much more.”

★★★☆☆

written by BzzAgentSexlexia2000 on 06/08/2013

I got this as a free sample from Persil and I have never really bought branded washing detergent before so expected real results. I was a little apprehensive when using a Bio washing liquid but I think my concerns were justified. The heavy chemical smell stayed around for far too long and was so strong it was unpleasant despite having used a minimal amount in my wash. The cleaning power was also questionable as even with the use of the 'massager' it still failed to remove all evidence of some stains from my general wash and as for heavy staining on tea towels, forget about it. The price is also off-putting when own-brand gels do just as good a job.

“Persil small and mighty lives up to it's name!”

★★★★★

written by Angelbunny on 05/08/2013

I got a free sample of Persil small and mighty from Persil, The first thing I noticed when I used Persil small and mighty was the smell, it's lovely and fresh, even clothes that I had washed a week before using Persil small and mighty still smell clean and fresh! The stain eraser ball is brilliant, you use it to measure the amount of liquid needed and it is also used to help remove the stains, just pour a little liquid on the stain and gently rub using the bottom of the stain eraser ball, It saves scrubbing with your hands and makes the job a lot easier, it works wonders! I have used it on stains from tomato pasta, blackcurrant juice, bananas, beetroot, grease, oil, mud, really dirty football kit worn in the rain and plying football on the muddy grass, It sure got rid of all these stains! I'm a mum of three and I need a product that can work in a quick low temperature wash and get rid of stains at the same time, I was forever having an overflowing laundry basket as with the previous product I was using only seemed to work in a higher temperature wash which took over an hour for a load seemed to take forever to get things done, Persil small and mighty works wonders and is great for the environment too especially when able to wash at 30 degrees. I love the small bottle as it saves loads of room in the cupboard, I always used to use washing powder until I tried Persil small and mighty, I will be purchasing liquid from now on. Persil small and mighty lives up to its name!

“Not that mighty”

★★★☆☆

written by MrsK2012 on 02/08/2013

As a member if Bzzagent I received a bottle of of Persil small and might from persil to try. I think I have given it a fair go now having done quite a few washes with it and I have to say my feelings are a little mixed to be honest. As a mother of two children a 6 year old boy who makes getting dirty and Olympic sport and a grubby 1 year old who is always getting covered in something I always end up with clothes that are stained with food, dirt and goodness knows what else, especially on the lighter coloured fabrics. According to the packaging this product is twice as concentrated as standard Persil meaning it is allegedly better at getting out the though stains. It also comes with a little applicator ball with means you can apply it directly to the tougher stains and rub it in for an extra stain busting boost. I have found that mud, dirt and grime come out easily but tomato based stains such as beans, spaghetti, pasta sauce and ketchup stains don't come away so easily. I followed the directions to the letter but found that the stains only faded slightly and I had to wash them again on a high heat to get them out and have the clothes completely clean. I would say that Persil small and mighty is an ok detergent but I don't think it is any better than other brands out there. If I was stuck or maybe if it was on special offer at the supermarket I might consider it, but it wouldn't be my first choice. Bzzagent Bolly81

“Persia small and mighty”

★★★☆☆

written by Brodiek on 02/08/2013

I received this product free to try through buzz agent and I'm a little disappointed to be honest. I have two children a 5 year old and a mucky two year old. I was having trouble removed bean/spaghetti stains from my children's white tshirts so thought this would really help from reading the bottle. I used as directed hower found that the only way the stains were removed was to was on a high heat which is what I wanted to avoid. I wouldn't say this product is bad, just no better than any other brands, if it were on offer then I would probly buy again, other than that ill stick to what I usually buy. -bzzagent brodie

“RIP STAINS!”

★★★★☆

written by BzzagentScor on 28/07/2013

Don't you get really annoyed when your child returns from school with a dirty, barely white shirt?! I recieved a free bottle from Persil & I am impressed with it's effective stain removing abilities! I have pre treated grass, paint and sauce stains so far. The thing I love most about this product is the lovely fragrance which lingers on even after it has been out to dry. I would definitely purchase this once my bottle is finished!

“small and definitely mighty”

★★★★★

written by lollypop7272 on 25/07/2013

I got a free sample from persil for 15 washes, love the way the ball is stored in the bottle not easily lost, I got my first chance to try it 2 hours after reciving my sample as my son got pollen on his tshirt, so I popped out the ball and filled it up to the first 35ml line and put a little on the pollen and rubbed it in with the ball for about a minute and could see the pollen statting to lift off the tshirt so I just popped the tshirt and the ball with the liquid the machine and on a 30 degree wash and hey presto the stain gone and tshirt back white x

“Persil Non Biological,but with optical brighteners -...”

★☆☆☆☆

written by on 30/01/2013

I washed a new cream duvet cover at 40 degrees after visiters at Christmas, and was horrified to see it appear as if bleach had been tipped on it when I hung it out. I sent it to Persil to evaluate whose reply was:-Optical brighteners, or fluroescers, are present in most detergents and used correctly, (as it was) will have an overall whitening effect. This increases the total amount of light reflected by a surface, giving a "whiter white". They can cause coloured items - particularly pale colours-to take on a faded appearance.' This was not indicated on the bottle, had it been I would never have used it. Persil do not accept liability for their deliberate lack of information. So buyers beware, don't touch the stuff, it is certainly not non biological, and is very harmful.

I have been using this product for a while now and have noticed yellow stains appear on the white washing, I assume this is the same problem.

“Does exactly what it says on the tin!”

★★★★★

written by JaneyR on 07/12/2012

It's small so it's a real space saver, but its concentrate is still really gentle on my baby's skin. He has no reaction to it at all, so it's really nice not having to worry any more about what product I'm using to wash the clothes which are closest to his skin and so are most likely to cause a reaction. Even though it's a non-bio the scent is lovely - and its cleaning power is impressive. It gets butterut squash stains out of the necklines of his vests - quite a feat! I really like the doser too - it's really accurate so it means I get exactly the same number of washes out of my pack as it promises - so it offers real value for money.

“Persil Small but not quite mighty”

★★★☆☆

written by on 30/11/2012

I am a Bzz Agent and have been trying the product for free. I must say I used to use Persil Small and Mighty if it was on offer at my local Supermarket and it didn't really have an impact on me. I usually buy the cheapest clothes washing product at that point in time as apart from the smell I always think that they are all much the same. I used my Persil Small and Mighty from my bzz agent kit and initially was very pleased. I love love love the smell of my laundry when it comes out of the washing machine and lasting fragrance in my utility room. I love love love the soft feel of the clothes, especially my 10 week old baby's babygros. But what I really want on top of both of those things is a detergent that actually washes out "tough stains" as promised, and like all other detergents Persil Small and Mighty still doesn't deliver. I was expecting (as the marketing of this product is all related to our "little ones") that it would be able to get leaky nappy stains out of babygros - it doesn't unless you use it with an extra stain remover, like Vanish. And as a busy mother of two, you don't want to have to soak the clothes, put on Vanish and then put them in the washing machine, you want a product that does all that for you. Nappy leakage stains are tough, but nappies leak all the time with explosive babies!!! The other notable comment that I have is that although the product is concentrated, it takes you a while to get used to using less - although in a very hard water area such as mine you probably end up using the same amount as with normal liquid. What I would recommend would be putting some clever top on the bottle that stops you from filling the ball up too much - ie gives you one wash load amount at the time, then you would be far less inclined to add "just a little bit more as I live in a hard water area". In regards to the measuring ball, I found it really difficult to get the plastic measuring ball off of the top of the bottle!! Not quite mighty enough for me, yet.

“Persil Small and mighty could be mightier!”

★★★★☆

written by on 27/11/2012

As a bzzagent i was given a free sample to trial, im normally a liquid capsule user so was sceptical of the mess a liquid would create, i was suprised that it was actually mess free once i had managed to get the dosind cap off! You do have to balance it well in the washer though. I always use a larger dose of liquid as i have a 7kg washer, the clothes came out smelling fresh and dried lovely and soft. However stainwise it doesnt remove everything especially if i havent been able to wash a stained bib/outfit the same day. Stains were removed if they went straight in the wash though. I preferred to use small and mighty with comfort tropical rather than comfort pure.

“Small & useless”

★☆☆☆☆

written by on 21/03/2012

This product did not remove stains after 2 attempts on a 95C boil wash. The second time using more liquid - Probably ok for laundry without stains, but otherwise it's useless.

“Even at 30 degrees, what a load of rubbish!”

★☆☆☆☆

written by proper-products-please on 28/07/2011

The hype around this product is typically enough to get you to buy only to be disappointed. Regardless of the time period and the advertised claims about blood stains etc only hot long washes work and they work with the cheap washing liquid. Tried the lower temp an 60 minute washes only to be left with dirty washing!!!

“This stuff is rubbish. It does not work and it smells...”

★☆☆☆☆

written by on 20/07/2010

This stuff is rubbish. It does not work and it smells awful. I wash most of my clothes after one wear and sometimes there may be a small cooking splash stain or similar on them. Persil small and mighty doesn't touch them, even at 60 degrees! I wonder, if the same company also makes stain remover products, maybe they want you to buy those as well so they can make even more money out of you. I will not buy this again.

“I decided to try Persil Small and Mighty as it was on...”

★☆☆☆☆

written by on 19/03/2010

I decided to try Persil Small and Mighty as it was on special offer at my local supermarket, and I'd also seen it advertised on Television. Well it's definitely small, but it's not very mighty, and I found that I had to use twice the recommended amount to get it to do a half decent job on my dirty washing. It didn't remove even the lightest of stains, and I had to wash the last bundle of clothes twice as it hadn't actually cleaned them properly. The one good thing about this product is that it's gentle on the skin and doesn't cuase any irritation. But for now I think I'll stick to ASDA own brand.

★☆☆☆☆

written by on 27/07/2009

Normally I am very pleased with Persil products. If you use 3x as much as stated on the bottle, it cleans really well, otherwise you will need to re-wash anything with a mark more than once, and if you do not get the cloths dry straight away, your clothes will smell worse than they did before they were washed

“i have bought the Persil small and mighty 2x...”

★☆☆☆☆

written by abi391 on 05/07/2009

i have bought the Persil small and mighty 2x concentrated liquid and am amazed at how it does not work at all!!! I have a 2.5 year old son who loves ice lollies and a 7 month old daughter who is weaning and constantly pulls off her bibs. So lots of food stains on my children's clothes. I have always used powders in the past but decided to try a liquid detergent and i am not happy at all. Things come out of the laundry looking as bad as when they went in. I don't understand how they can market this product when it doens't work! I will never buy this product again and will go back to powders.
