Eco friendly (green) detergents

Which? tests on two leading  environmentally (friendlier) laundry detergents resulted in the following conclusion, “unfortunately they can’t compete with the big brands for cleaning results although both are worth considering for lightly soiled loads”. I can’t say I’m surprised but it’s still early days.

As a compromise, it might be a good idea to buy both. Buy one of the best brands for tough stains and fairly dirty washing but also keep one of the better quality green detergents for lightly soiled laundry. That way you are still doing something to help without paying the price in unsatisfactory wash results.
