Buyer’s opinion
Alexey Kryukov, author of the useful Youtube channel “Kryukovs”:
– I pay attention to the composition and price. The most useful are organic detergents, they are based on vegetable origin, however, they are more expensive. You need to avoid products that contain phosphates, phosphonates, chlorine, anionic surfactants. But! It all depends on the preferences of the buyer. What matters to you? Shiny, perfectly washed dishes or an eco-friendly, safe formula? According to my observations, the more chemistry, the cleaner the dishes, and environmentally friendly products do not always cope, but are more expensive. Therefore, the choice is individual.
