Does it really work?

I struggle to get the mud out of dd's clothes from the school playing fields at 40 using persil tbh, so doubt it when it comes to 15. I use 30 for lightly soiled darks, but don't have 15 on my machine anyway.

Lowest my machine goes is 30 degrees...!

Water from the cold tap could be at 15 degrees C (probably depends on time of year) so effectively it is running a wash without heating up the water. I think I'll stick to Ariel or Persil powder at 40 degrees thank you.
