Bottle praises and grumbles... The bottle is a sturdy size and shape, with a green lid (which it stands on) and a white body with the green, red & blue Ariell logo. The main things it wants to shout about on the label are: Cool clean (15 degrees), Whites & colours, "Actilift" TM, New size - 24 washes, and their ... Read the complete review

I had never actually used Ariel gel before but a few months back I had a £1 voucher and it was on offer at £4 so I decided to give it a try as I thought £3 for 24 washes was decent value for a branded laundry product. The usual selling price is £8 for a 24 wash bottle or £6 for a 16 wash bottle however it is one of the products that Asda ... Read the complete review

Some of you might know from reading my reviews that I am in charge of the household side of a boat and a villa in Spain including the laundry. At times there can be 14 people to look after and that is a lot of washing particularly when they are in and out of the water all day. We get through an enormous amount of towels not to mention ...

I wouldn't usually write a review about a washing powder, but with this product I felt I had to. With having a toddler in our house, and my partners smelly gym clothes everyday we go through a lot of washing powder. Both my son and my partner suffer from sensitive skin and ezcema, so I have to be mindful of which powders I ... Read the complete review

Ariel Excel Gel is a colour detergent specifically designed to work well at temperatures as low as 15'C but can also be used with higher water temperatures as well. One standard sized bottle (which is actually 667ml) is enough for 18 washes. The bottles are a nice size and shape and have a stripe of clear plastic on the side ... Read the complete review

I don't have a particular laundry brand that I tend to stick to and change between brands all the times, picking products up when they are on offer as the branded laundry products can be expensive when buying them at full price. There are currently four different Ariel Excel Gel products available, a biological excel gel, a ... Read the complete review

Cleaning clothes is one of those mundane tasks that unfortunately we all need to do and so making it as quick and easy as possible is something that we aim for and wish we could find but is this the solution we have been searching for? Pros: Ariel liquid gel allows for you to wash your clothes at a lower temperature ... Read the complete review

Introduction:- Produced by Procter and Gamble UK, Ariel Excel Gel with Febreze claims to give good results at low temperatures with easy stain removal and added Febreze freshness. Proctor and Gamble claim that this gel contains special perfumed ingredients that are "attracted" to the clothes being washed. The idea ... Read the complete review

==God bless my Nan== Like my Nan before her, my mum has always used one washing powder only and that trait has been passed on to me. Ariel as a wash powder has been around and used in our family through generations and to this day whilst in her late 70's my Nan claims it is the best product ever. Having been around ...

My mother is the kind of person who finds a product she likes, and will use it for years. She has done this with Ariel products for as long as I can remember. The minute there is a new Ariel product she has to try it. As I have to do my own washing, I find myself using the products too and this is one of our most recent (and staying) ...

Now I'll make it clear now that I am obsessive when it comes to laundry detergents. I am neurotic about cleanliness and I want my clothes to smell, look and feel fresh too. For in excess of £4 I expect the bottle to impress me. So when I bought Ariel, I had high expectations. Ariel Actilift Excel Gel now seems to be the torchbearer of ... Read the complete review

My daughter does my head in. She's not quite 13 months old, and the last year of my life has been one relentless stain removing exercise. First it was milk, wee and poo stains, then she moved on to adding pureed tomato stains, now just about everything she eats gets worn. She likes to smear it all over, and I dread when one of my kind ... Read the complete review

They also sell an 18 wash bottle which costs about £4.60 normally or is currently in Tesco for £3. Ariel make four ... Read the complete review

I do not buy the same brand of washing powder or the liquid form as I like to buy one that I have not tried before or one that is the cheapest at the time to try and save some money as we all like to do in these hard economical times.

I started using this product a couple of months ago, my machine has developed a fusty smell after the wash, has anyone else experienced this problem? I've never had this before so am thinking it must be this gel, which I've bought so much of as it was on special offer. Good result on clothes.

I usually buy supermarket own brand washing tablets or liquid as I find they work just fine and don't see why I should spend more if I can get the job done for less!! However, I did see that Ariel had their Actilift Excel Gel on special offer in Tesco, half price in fact £4 instead of £8.17 so decided to give it a go. **The ... Read the complete review

It is really hard to please me with a detergent - some don't wash out properly, some leave white stains, some don't smell nicely, some cause my skin is itchy (I'm not talking about cheap ones and I do have a very basic low-cost washing machine). Excel Gel is perfect in this, have no problem with it whatsoever, plus the one with Febreeze ... Read the complete review

We usually opt for the tablet style washing powder/liquid. However, a few weeks back we needed to grab a few bits and the only shop around was Lidl. Lidl didn't have a vast array of washing powders so we opted for this because it is a brand we know and trust. There was only one kind available which was the green one which I ...

In our house, I'm just as likely to be doing the washing as my wife. We both wear clothes - clothes get dirty - so it's a shared task. My wife has little interest in shopping for food and boring things like washing detergent, but she does prefer to use branded clothes washing products and is firmly of the view that these give ...
