I’ve used Ariel powdered detergent in my machines, works well but have to be careful with the dosage of detergent since you can easily over due it and cause a suds lock. I’ve already suds locked my Whirlpool a few times with Tide, Gain, and Ariel detergent. I usually use a Tide scoop to measure the amount of detergent I need and so far seems to work.

I just keep my Ariel detergent in a large Rubbermaid storage container. It is only large enough to hold about 1/3 of the bag, I secure the top of the bag with a rubber band for storage until I next need to refill the container.
I keep a 1/4 cup measuring cup in the storage container. My washer is 3.5 cu ft capacity. Our water is very hard. I use 1/4 cup for a very small load (1/4 full tub), small loads ( half full tub)1/2 cup, 3/4 cup for med load (3/4 full tub) and for a large load (full to top of the tub) 1 cup. I’ve never had an over sudsing condition of a suds lock following these guidelines. My experience with Ariel Powdered detergent is that it is relatively low sudsing. HTH, Eddie |
