When it comes to laundry, I’m all about convenient. If there’s a way to eliminate a step out of the laundry routine, I’ll give it a shot to help save time. Purex is introducing a new way to help us laundry-doers get clean clothes with minimal effort with their new Purex UltraPacks liquid laundry detergent.
About Purex UltraPacks
The Review
The new Triple Action Purex Ultra Packs come in convenient “UltraPacks”. Throw one (or two) into the washer as the water loads and the pack automatically dissolves, allowing just the right amount of the new Purex Triple Action liquid laundry detergent to be used. After putting one UltraPack in the washer, I actually watched the film dissolve. The more time you allow for the package to be in the water, the faster it will dissolve. I waited until I saw the little air bubble escape from the pack, and then lit the washing machine agitate a little to help distribute the detergent.
What makes the Purex UltraPacks unique is that it contains double the cleaning power in each pre-dosed liquid pack. You don’t need to measure, spill, or hunt for caps – simply throw a packet or two into your washer as it’s filling and you’re good to go. The Purex UltraPacks are definitely more convenient in terms of not needing to measure. Instead of wondering if it’s a 1, 2, or 3-liner load, it’s just a matter of one pack or two. The Triple Action liquid formula contained in each pack will do the rest of the cleaning for you.
Purex Ultra Packs are available in two different scents – Mountain Breeze or Free & Clear (a great choice for those with sensitive skin.) I’m a huge fan of the Mountain Breeze scent – it’s fresh and clean. The scent is strong while you wash and then is more subdued when it comes out of the dryer. There are 18-packs in each resealable bag and the packs are safe for both regular and HE washers.
Purex UltraPacks will be coming to a store near you in February, 2012 so keep your eye out!

The summers I can get away with using those nice smelly scents but once winter hits it’s back to Free & Clear because I have sensitive skin that is already irritated by the dry air. Thanks for sharing this review and giveaway with all of us.
