Dynamo Oxi Plus Detergent Review - Doesn't Get Out Stains At All
by Cory
(Riverview, MI)
Cory has shared a review of Dynamo Oxi Plus laundry detergent.
Cory says:
I wish I hadn't purchased this product.
It says it is tough on stains and even has the oxi plus logo on it. I bought it when it was on sale 2 for 1. I am so disappointed! It doesn't get out any stains at all.
In the past two weeks I have rewashed most of my loads. I will never buy this product again. I would really like my money back. If anyone knows how I can do that I would really appreciate the information.
Taylor says:
Cory, I am sorry to hear about the bad experience you've had with this product.
It is hard to find out how to contact anyone about this brand of laundry detergent since it is now owned by Phoenix Brands, and their websites aren't very helpful. My suggestion would be to look at the fine print on the back of the laundry jug itself and see if there is a customer service number you could call and complain to.
If you do call, I would love to hear what they say to you, or if they gave you a refund.

Roger shared his review of the Oxi Plus version of Dynamo laundry detergent.
Roger says:
I used some Ultra Dynamo with OXI-PLUS and didn't like it at all. Low suds and very watery. Probably will not buy again.
I like suds and laundry detergent with some substance to it, not all watery.
I am sure it got my clothes clean, but just didn't like it.
Taylor says:
Thanks for your review Roger.
Has anyone else tried this (or any) version of Dynamo? If so, I would love to hear your reviews. I also love reviews of other detergent brands. You can share your laundry detergent review here, telling me what you liked, or didn't, about a particular brand or type of detergent.
***Update: I got a review from a reader (click here to read the review) who started getting an allergic reaction to the Dynamo 2x Ultra HE Sunrise Fresh laundry detergent once the Oxi Plus was added to it. Has anyone else had an allergic reaction?***
An SR101 Reader shared her experience with this detergent.
SR101 Reader says:
I have always used Dynamo.
Now, all I can find at the store is the oxi-plus added to it.
I did not pay attention when I bought it. For 2 weeks now I have been itching like crazy. No more Dynamo for me :(
Taylor says:
Thanks for sharing your experience, but unfortunately many people have been experiencing this reaction to this additive.
Hope you can find a new detergent that will work better for you. If you haven't already, please check out the laundry detergent reviews on the site which can help you find one that will hopefully work well for you.
I Can't Use This Detergent Anymore With Addition Of Oxi Plus
by SR101 Reader
SR101 Reader says:
I have used Dynamo since I was 18 years old. I am now 54.
When Dynamo first came out I received boxes of samples sent to me, and I was the one that went door to door for people to try it out.
Now they have added Oxi Plus to it and I can no longer use it.
I break out with hives.
Do you still make the kind without the Oxi Plus?
I recently purchased nine bottles of this detergent, not looking at the change in it. I use it and had to stop quickly.
I ended up giving all nine bottles to a friend. A great loss.
I didn't take it back to the store because it was a long time after the sale.

Taylor says:
I'm sorry you're allergic to the newest version of this detergent, but as far as I can tell they haven't stopped making the original.
Instead, this is just another version they now have available, so hopefully you could just be more careful when purchasing in the future, to get the one without the "Oxi Plus."
I would love to hear from more people who've used this, or any other brand of detergent and want to share their review. You can share your laundry detergent review here, for this or any other brand, telling me what you like, or don't, about it.

Comments for I Can't Use This Detergent Anymore With Addition Of Oxi Plus
Never again will I purchase Dynamo Oxi Plus. My clothes look the same as they did when I first put them in the wash.
Wonderful by: Joan Murphy
I have used regular Dynamo for over 20 years UNTIL Walmart stopped selling it. I live in Utica, NY and Walmart has not sold Dynamo for at least the past 5 years. When I was shopping at Big Lots in I noticed they had ONE bottle of the above product for only $4, I quickly grabbed it and used the entire bottle on all my laundry for the past 2 weeks. I can't begin to tell you how pleased and happy I was with this Dynamo Oxi Plus in a blue bottle. According to my research, this product is only being sold in a few States and NYS is NOT one of them. Would you please let me know if there are any stores within a 10 miles radius of Utica, NY where I can purchase more of this product that not only removes stains but brightens the clothes.
Have to use too much by: Patsy
I have found Dynamo Oxi Ultra to work great, provided I use a cup and a half (12 ounces) to wash each load. Otherwise, this is a very poor performing product. Seems to me it's watered down, and my washer is an HE model.
Staining? by: Joe
I'm using the OXI Plus and all my lighter colored clothes are getting blue stains from the detergent. I have thrown away many socks and 3 shirts now. Anyone else notice this? I'll never use this stuff again. The buy 1 get 4 or 5 free should have been an indication!! Be warned. :(
Dynamo Oxi Plus in Blue Bottle ruins my clothes by: Elayne
Since I have been using this detergent on dark clothes I have been getting lots of a white lint-type spots all over my black and navy pants when I take them out of the washing machine. After drying, I then need to use a lint remover before I iron them. Sometimes that doesn't work and the pants look like they have white spots all over them. I am extremely disappointed with this detergent since this has never happened in my over 50 years of doing laundry. I am going to return the full bottle of laundry I purchased and see if I can exchange it for something that doesn't ruin my clothes.
