Advantages: cleans as well as standard washing powders

Disadvantages: White patches often left on your clothes

I love ecover products. However the washing powder is not my favorite I have to say.

Don't get me wrong, it cleans well, but I find that if you don't wash your clothes at a high enough temprature you are often left with patches of white powder on your clothes when you take them out the machine. So you end up using a higher temprature to prevent this, which isn't very good for the environment. Plus many of my friends have noticed the same thing.

It's the same when you are handwashing with this stuff, I just don't think that it desolves well enough in water. That's why I use the Ecover laundry liquid. It not only works as well as the powder, it smells great too. My friend tried the ecover powder for the first time a few weeks ago, but complained to me that it gave her clothes a vegetal smell to them which wasn't very nice.

So my advice would be to stick with Ecover, but give the laundry liquid a try instead of the powder.

Summary: good, but not as good as the liquid!
