Housewives with experience know that it is better to have both powder and gel in stock, and even better, laundry soap. All because there are different stains, fabrics and washing methods. This affects the choice of detergent.
However, if you pay attention to a practical approach to the operation of the washing machine, you should give preference to gel products.
Undissolved powder granules often have a negative effect on machine performance. They settle on the drum, especially if washed at low temperatures. Due to a bad rinse, you have to run a repeated or intensive cycle. And this is overconsumption of electricity/water, in addition, increased wear and tear of equipment.
If you use washing powder in hot water, deposits do not appear so quickly. The product dissolves better. Thanks to this, chemicals are washed off more easily and are not so harmful.
Housewives often pour the powder "on the eye", instead, the gel is used in portions.
