Cheer Laundry Detergent Is The Best Laundry Soap

by Joyce
(Walford, ON. Canada)

Joyce has shared her Cheer laundry detergent review.

Joyce says:

I have been using Cheer for many years. Although the scents have changed the performance has always been great.


I find it doesn't fade the clothes like other detergents can. The smell isn't strong. We have soap allergies and this is the only one that does not make us itch or sneeze!!!!

I have used it in HE and regular washers, and in soft and hard water and it always works great! My only complaint is it costs more than others and is not available in my area.

Taylor says:

Thanks Joyce for sharing your review.

It is interesting that you say it doesn't cause you or your family to have allergic reactions, because several people have reported that it bothers their allergies (see below for an example). I guess that just goes to show us that each of us is different in this regard.

Does anyone else use Cheer to wash their clothing or other items in their home? If so, please share your Cheer review here, or read other reviews and information about the detergent.

Cheer Detergent Review - Not Good For Allergies

by Wendy

Wendy provided this review of Cheer detergent.

Wendy says:

I found out I had a laundry detergent allergy after using Cheer for a while. I couldn't figure out why my back was so broken out and why I was itchy all the time.

I progressively changed things I was using. Eventually I got to the laundry detergent. Bingo! That was the problem!

As soon as I changed and rewashed everything, no more problems.

Now I use Sun & Earth. (You can read Wendy's review of Sun & Earth laundry detergent here).

Taylor says:

Thanks Wendy for sharing your review of Cheer detergent.

Yes, laundry detergent can be a significant cause of allergic reactions, especially of the skin, in many people.

If you haven't had a chance to check out my article about laundry detergent allergy symptoms and cures you may want to. It includes an exclusive video interview with a dermatologist who discusses the issue, along with my own suggestions based on research and experience (my son suffers from laundry allergies himself.)

I would be interested to hear from others to know if they've had problems with Cheer detergent in regard to allergy issues. You can tell me in the comments, or you can also share your own Cheer laundry detergent reviews here, or read other reviews of Cheer detergent already submitted.

Of course, using a perfume and dye free version of any laundry detergent, according to the dermatologist I spoke to, helps many people immensely, so there may be a difference between scented and free and clear Cheer. (Here is my list of hypoallergenic laundry detergents available if you are looking for something new to try.)

In addition, each person is individual and what works well for one person may not work for another, so everyone can also share their own laundry detergent reviews here, saying which one works best for you, in regard to allergies, scents, removing stains or anything that is important to you.

Cheer Powder Doesn't Rinse Completely And Causes Me Laundry Allergies

by Chloe Burlington
(Vermont)

Chloe has shared her opinions and experiences with Cheer powder detergent.

Chloe says:

Cheer doesn't seem to rinse completely out of the laundered clothes.

When using the powder there is a visual residue left on the items after the rinse cycle. I've tried to remedy this by setting my washing machine to go through an additional rinse cycle. This does remove the powdery residue.

However, my skin remains sensitive to the detergent no matter how many rinse cycles I use. I develop an itchy rash after using this detergent. I'm assuming that it's contact dermatitis because it is evident wherever the laundered fabric touches my skin. The reaction is nearly immediate and is quite severe. Lotions don't help at all.

The only way I find relief is to launder everything in a different detergent and rinse everything at least twice.

I've tried this product more than once over the past few years. I clearly shouldn't try it again because nothing seems to change. I end up feeling like I've wasted my time and my money as well as damaging my skin.

Cheer powder detergent does not leave me so cheery.

Taylor says:

Thanks Chloe for sharing your review.

You are actually not the first person to tell me that this detergent causes them to experience laundry detergent allergies (see a review above for an example).

However, all of these experiences with detergent allergies with Cheer have occurred with the scented versions. Cheer also has a free and gentle version (click link for a review), so I wonder if this would help, if you want to continue using the brand?

Since several people have now mentioned this issue about allergies I would love to hear from others, sharing if the free and gentle version was OK for them or not, and also if allergies issues are common with this detergent.

Cheer Laundry Detergent Review: I'm Constantly Itchy From It

by Jade

Jade has shared her Cheer laundry detergent review.

Jade says:

I recently switched from Tide to Cheer just because I wanted to try something new.

I love how it removes stains easily and leaves a wonderful scent.

Since using Cheer however, I have been constantly itchy. I was surprised as I always thought Tide was the harshest and most perfumed detergent on the market and I haven't had a reaction to that.

So for those of you with sensitive skin or if you have suddenly started to feel itchy, this detergent could be why. Bummer!

Taylor says:

Thanks Jade for sharing your experiences with Cheer laundry detergent.

You are actually not the first person to tell me you experienced a laundry detergent allergy from Cheer (see a couple more above).

Of course, there is a Cheer Free and Gentle detergent which is dye and perfume free that you may want to try.

In addition, here is a list of hypoallergenic laundry detergent brands you may also want to try, to relieve your laundry allergies.

Do you, or have you in the past, used Cheer to wash your clothing? If so, please share your Cheer review here, or read more information and reviews about it that have already been submitted.
