Dri-pak Soda Crystals Reviews

Recently I'd been hearing 'glug glug' noises for a while after using the bathroom sink, and so I decided to give it a good clean. For some reason I decided to scrape a cotton bud down the side of the drain, and was disgusted at all the gunk that I got out. My house was rented out to students last year and doesn't have the best drain system in the ...  Read the complete review

I first started using soda crystals 4 years ago because my neighbour who is 87 swears by them, apparently his washing machine broke down one day about 10 years ago and the washing machine engineer told him to use two spoonfulls in every wash as it takes away limescale. His machine hasn't broke since. I started using them in all my washes as well ...  Read the complete review

Soda crystals are one of those products that our grandmothers had in their cupboards but have since gone out of fashion, while we replace them with expensive and heavily scented cleaning products. Thankfully they are coming back into fashion through shows like How Clean Is Your House. Soda crystals have an incredible range of uses but ...  Read the complete review

Around a week ago I noticed a rather unpleasant cabbage smell eminating from my washing machine every time I opened or closed the door - it got steadily more pungent until a couple of days ago when I took my "clean" washing out and noticed the cabbage smell was now transfering itself onto the clothes. I quickly pegged them out and was ...  Read the complete review

I have been using soda crystals for about two to three years now, after a recommendation from my Nana to use them in the washing machine, to help reduce limescale. They can be used in the drawer of the machine - about half a cup - to help to reduce the amount of washing detergent used, as well as keeping the drum free from limescale buildup. As I ...  Read the complete review

I am always amazed when people say to me that they have never heard of soda crystals, or “washing soda”, as it is sometimes called. Almost none of my friends use it. Yet soda crystals have been around a long, long time – in fact, at the beginning of the century they were virtually the only cleaning product available except for soap. And this is ...  Read the complete review

Soda Crystals are probably the most versatile cleaning product i have ever used!

I came across Soda Crystals, which are ...  Read the complete review

I started to use soda crystals when my bathroom sink blocked. My mother bless her soul suspected grease and suggested an old fashion approach SODA CRYSTALS. That was sometime ago. After a while I got bored with the time it took to work and used other types of cleaners i.e. Mr Muscle. Unfortunately these can be rather caustic and expensive. So I ...  Read the complete review

As a small child I was always impressed when my Gran used to clean her drains. She’d put a pile of soda crystals on the drain grid and then pour a kettle of boiling water over it and I’d watch the big pile of ‘snow’ magically fizz and disappear. And once again Granny could hold her head high in the street knowing she had hygienic clean ...  Read the complete review
