Review: Sun 2x Double Concentrated Liquid Laundry Detergent

Let me start off by saying, I am not someone who is anti high end laundry detergent. Ive had my love affair with tide, you know that happy bright orange bottle that you can't help but stare at when you're in the laundry isle. It's inevitable, and it does a darn good job at cleaning your clothes but it also will put a little hole in your wallet.

When recently trying to cut back in my budget I decided to venture out of my comfort zone and try a lower end laundry detergent. They couldn't be that bad right? They all have the same purpose. It just so happened that the week I was out of detergent my Walgreen's was running a special on Sun 2x double concentrate laundry detergent. Buy one get one free, being a sucker for that little acronym BOGO it caught my eye. But what caught my eye even more was the fact that it was originally $4.99 for a 75 load bottle! This meant I would be getting 150 loads of laundry for less than half of what I was paying for my beloved happy orange bottle.

I have been using Sun laundry detergent for a little over a month now and I would have to say I give it a 9 out of 10. It is fantastic and tackling everyday dirt and sweat, smells fresh and keeps my clothes looking clean and bright. It is also available in a number of scents for those of you that like a wider variety. The only reason I cannot give it a 10/10 is because I do not know how it handles tougher diet and grime, besides the occasional spill my clothes are never really THAT dirty and nothing a little Oxi-Clean can't fix.

To show a price comparison:
1 bottle of Tide 2x Ultra 64 loads retails $11.97
1 bottle of Sun 2x double concentrated 75 loads retails $4.99

I will most definitely be repurchasing Sun laundry detergent when I run out. Another thing I enjoy about the brand is they often offer a price reduction. Right now at my local Big Lots a 75 load bottle is $3.50 and in my opinion you can't beat that!
