"Fairy Non-Bio Fan"
I am very much a Fairy Non Bio fan, having tried numerous different washing powders and liquids over the years! So many of the ones with added fabric softener make either my daughter Megan's arms itch or Hubby's legs itch, that I've given up on them.
I know that if I stick with non-bio then I'm safe. Yes, sometimes Fairy can be a little dearer than the other brands but to me, it's worth every penny. (Oh and I love the smell too. Lovely and fresh!)

"Will be using again..."
Since my daughter was born I have used fairy non-bio to wash all of her clothes and was happy to stumble accross the new non-bio gel.
The bottle is very easy to use, just squeeze the recommended amount into the cap place it on the top of your washing and start!
There is no mess and the bottle can be recycled.
I do all of my washing on 30'C and it removes all stains (so far).
The washing smells lovely too and is very soft. *I do use fairy conditioner too.
Would recommend to anyone and will be continuing to use this product!

"smells so fresh!!!"
I was surprised as everybodyelse to receive a big size bottle and i would like to say to the baby website that it is very much appreciated ;-)
With the lid to use as a dispenser u won't be afraid to spill the gel everywhere and the bottle is so easy to handle.
As i have got a very sensitive skin this product is perfect for me and surely for the little ones'too!
Your clothes come out of the washing machine smelling absolutly GORGEOUS!!!
I will certainly carry on to use this product(and for my baby in a few months!!) and would recommand this product to anybody with sensitive skin and to everyone who care about their little one.

"Smells lovely"
Got straight to testing my fairy non bio gel, it smells lovely.
Found the bottle were easy to use, you were able to squeeze the gel out without spilling it, much easy to use.
I found this product last longer then other powders so would but this product again. It made the clothes nice & soft.
I have 3 young children to which it were brill on thier clothes as removed stains on low wash of 30 degrees.
Its alot easier to store rather than a box of powders.

""Squeeky" clean"
Although it took a long time to arrive (naughty postmen on strike ;o) - it was definitely worth waiting for! The packaging is attractive, sturdy (won't crack as I've experienced before with another brand). The cap is used as dosing measurement so no extra plastic balls hanging around, or possibly being lost. It is also very easy to use as the bottle is squeezy enough to get the correct amount out, but not too squishy that you overfill the dosing cap. Also, the gel is a great consistency, and unlike liquid, it does not spill everywhere so no wastage (hence why I gave it the rating of 5/5 for value for money as I seem to always spill and make a mess with my other ones, or they run over the top and all own the sides of the bottle). The scent left on your garments is absolutely gorgeous too, it is so fresh, even my partner commented positively which is not common as he normally grumbles that the smells are too overpowering. I have used it on a bed & bath wash (60 degrees), a white wash (90), normal wash 40 and 30 and the cleaning capability of the gel has been great on all, as well as leaving the garments soft. When the laundry first comes out, I noticed that alot of it felt quite "squeeky"...that probably sounds a little odd, but perhaps this was because it left them so clean and free of any washing liquid residue, unlike powders etc. The stains from my little man's foods also seem to come out fainter than with my other detergents I use, so all in all a great product and I would recommend to fellow persons responsible in the household in control of the laundry :o) All the best

"Top Buy Great Value"
I was really pleased with my fairy non bio gel, the size of the bottle was much bigger than the usual gels i have used.
The first thing i noticed was how easy the lid was to pop off and fill with the gel, i was worried that the gel would spill over when you stopped squeezing, but it has a great 'suction' which stops any spills.
I only use non bio on the kids clothes in case of reactions, and the kids clothes seem to have the worst stains! Anyway i am happy to report that all the washes i have done so far have removed all the everyday stains from dirt to dinners. And also everything has a lovely fresh smell to it, which excentuates through the house when its put on the radiator.
I have always been a fan of fairy non bio powder, but am definatley going to switch to the gel from now on. You do pay a little bit more for fairy than some other non bios but i think its definately money well spent.

"Great Product"
I was very happy to receive my bottle though the post and put it to the test right away!
It was very easy to use,the gel cap coming off easily and the gel itself was easily squeezed from the bottle without any mess.
The smell is fab and it performs well at all temperatures although for VERY heavy soiling I had to use a stain booster,but I have had to do so with every washing detergent I have ever used.
All in all I was very pleased with this product.

Very happy with this product and will be buying again although i do find the price a little steep

"ooo fairy soft"
when i received my fairy non bio gel i was very surprised at the size of the bottle !! its a 26 wash size, i was expecting a small one lol.
anyway about the product ...
the bottle itself is very easy to handle, the flip cap works well unlike some that snap the moment you open them, the gel inside is squeezed through a rubbery valve so doesnt drip. and the bottle is flimsy enough to be able to squeeze easily but still sturdy enough mot to crack.
I have used the gel on a white wash and also on a darks wash, both on my 30 degree half an hour cycle, the results from each wash was very satisfying, no soapy residue on my darks, and the whites are lovely and clean.
The smell of the gel is lush, my clothes retained the fragrance after washing, unlike some that leave the clothes smelling clean but thats about it, i dried some of the clothes in the dryer and some on the washing line, personally i found that the dryer took some of the fragrance away, but the line dried are still smelling lovely albeit a subtle fragrance :)
The clothes are soft too even without a seperate fabric softener.
My poor daughter had a bout of vomiting the other night, but always one to look on the bright side of things, i figured it was the ideal chance to 'sniff test' the fairy non bio gel .... the result was absolutely perfect.. no vomit smells remaining and smelling as lovely as the rest of the washing :)
Overall i was very impressed with the product, worth the extra pennies if you have sensitive skin.

"No mess, smells lovely!"
I tried out my Fairy Non Bio Gel straight away as I have been finding that my usual washing powder is not very good at removing stains from my little boys clothes - usually related to him dropping dinner down himself!
I love the dispenser, it makes no mess at all and looks really nice (well, for washing liquid..hehe) and smells lovely. It removed all the stains on my little boys clothes on a 40deg wash and the clothes smell fab afterwards too. The smell definitely lasts a lot longer on the clothes than with my old powder. All in all a great product.

"Easy to use"
When i first recieved Fairy non bio gel, my first thought was that it had a good appearance, very bright and stands out compared to other products.
I found it very easy to use, no mess and simple, just squeeze the gel into the lid and then straight into the drum with the clothes.
It leaves your clothes smelling lovely and soft and i also noticed that even on a low wash of 30/40 degrees it removed stains very well, even on a white wash! So definately does what it is supposed to do.
I really like this product, i think i would pay for the retail price as it lasts a lot longer as you dont need to use as much gel as what you would need with powder and cant say anything negative about this product.
