Oxi-Clean
After being thoroughly annoyed by the high voiced pitchman/inventer/owner on the TV commercials which last far too long (thank you FCC) I bought the stuff. It did nothing. Absolutely nothing! It did not improve laundry and did not remove stains from the carpet. Most stain removers advertised on infomercials, as I learned with that stuff in a tube years ago, will only remove the substances demonstrated on TV. Quite often those stains are deliberately made lighter to make sure they ‘vanish.’ I bought another product from this same fellow from a website and discovered a $38.00 shipping and handling charge. Will not buy any product from this guy again.

How in the shit did this guy get his niche, mostl likely also get rich, buy simply shouting every utterance. Gives me a headache.
This guys found a great gig shouting, like that English guy with the red bowtie that did adds showing him lighting a car hood on fire. BUT I bought the Oxy Stain Remover when I saw it on T.V. one evening. I thought that I was getting a good product. It is amazing in one way! I have never seen a product make clothes disappear! I used this on several pairs of my Old Navy shorts and a couple of shirts, which where not cheap. The cost of these where around $50.00. My money like most people’s does not grow on tree’s. When I pulled the items out of the washing machine, they all had holes and where in shred’s. I would hope that they would reimburse for my loss.
I like Oxi Clean. Thumbs up, not so much, and guys with beards even less.
