Liquid vs powder detergents: What is better for your washing machine?

Liquid

Depends on the type of your machine.

Both are ok... 

Powder detergent if its of good quality also works as good as liquid...

Liquid detergents are often preferred for their ease of use and ability to dissolve quickly in water. They are effective in cold water washes and are generally less likely to leave residue on clothes. Liquid detergents are also suitable for pre-treating stains directly.

On the other hand, powder detergents are known for their efficiency in tackling heavy soil and stains. They often come in cardboard packaging, which can be more eco-friendly than plastic containers used for liquid detergents. Additionally, powders tend to be more cost-effective and have a longer shelf life.

When deciding between the two, consider factors such as the type of washing machine you have, water hardness in your area, and personal preferences. High-efficiency (HE) machines typically work well with both liquid and powder detergents, but it's essential to use the right amount to avoid over-sudsing.

Experiment with both types and observe how well they perform in your particular circumstances.

Use liquid, dissloves quickly and works better, 10+yrs experience... (will not argue), but for spot + brushing cleaning, put some powder detergent, little splash of water and rub, then put in machine... I keep both.
