Not that long
ago I was contacted by the makers of Wisk laundry detergent. I was told that
they have a new product call Wisk PowerBlasts and would like to review it. I know that any help
laundry wise is a good thing around my house especially around my running clothes.
So I thought I would give it a try.
The product
is described as:

Wisk® Deep Clean® PowerBlasts: The
Smallest Way to Attack the Biggest Laundry Soil Issue Convenient single dose pacs make it easier than ever to get a deep clean
WILTON, Conn., March 21, 2013 – Gross
Alert! Did you know that there are 250,000 sweat glands in your feet? Or, that
the average person can produce 1-3 gallons of sweat each week? Can you
imagine what this means for your family’s clothes? Wisk®, the detergent
known for fighting tough stains, has added Wisk
Deep Clean PowerBlasts - a small,
but powerful detergent to its Deep Clean family. PowerBlasts attack
hidden body oils and sweat – the biggest soil issue in your laundry - in a
convenient single dose form.
Beginning with Ring Around the
Collar®, the Wisk brand is a recognized leader in fighting tough stains that
you can – and cannot – see. Most people don’t realize that the average washload
contains 20 times more hidden body oils and sweat than visible stains and this
hidden dirt can stay trapped deep within the fiber of your clothes and build up
over time. PowerBlasts contain a patented blend of Micro-Cleaners™ that seek
out and attack hidden soils that some other detergents* can leave behind, so
that your clothes get a truly deep clean.“Consumers are always looking for solutions to simplify their lives without sacrificing performance. With new Wisk Deep Clean PowerBlasts, the laundry experience is much simpler and people can be confident that Wisk will leave their clothes deep down clean,” said Yasmin Grant for Wisk Deep Clean. “We like to think of PowerBlasts as a deep clean made easy – just drop one pac into the drum of your washing machine and blast sweat out!”
Wisk Deep Clean PowerBlasts dissolve
completely in the wash, even in cold water, and are safe for all washing
machines – high efficiency, non-high efficiency, front loaders and top loaders.
PowerBlasts are sealed in a water soluble film that dissolves completely, even
in coldwater, to release the active detergent throughout the wash, leading to
laundry that is deep down clean and free of any packaging materials.
The launch of PowerBlasts comes on the
heels of Wisk’s new revolutionary digital marketing campaign, called “Inside Dirt,” which tells
the story of one man’s mission to expose the dirty truth about America’s
so-called ‘clean’ laundry. His passion is born out of the shocking realization
that the stains you see on your dirty clothes are just the tip of a very filthy
iceberg, so he has decided to air America’s dirty laundry for everyone to see.

The first
thing that you’ll notice about the PowerBlast detergent is that it is not the traditional
stuff. I always think of either a powder or liquid for the washing machine. But
this new Wisk detergent is like what you put into your dish washer. It is a self-contained
packet of a liquid or gel that simply pops into the wash underneath the
clothes. It certainly is simple to use, no mess and no fear of spilling the traditional
powder or liquid. Being a guy that rarely does laundry I know I can do
something as simple as pop a packet in the washer. So simple and now mess or
needing to know how much to measure out.
Doing some
test loads with it we like the Wisk PowerBlast detergent. Clothes are clean and fresh. We
did our bed sheets in the Wisk and I was surprised by the nice clean smell as I
laid my head on the pillow that night. Actually all of my clothes are the same
way as we starting testing the Wisk detergent. I will be curious on how it will
deal with my running clothes. They do make an anti-bacterial as well that may
be just what I need for the running clothes.
If you are
looking for a good and convenient laundry detergent I would recommend the Wisk PowerBlast.
We found that it certainly does the job.
