Product Information

Testers also evaluated stain removers against set-in stains that had been sitting on t-shirts for at least eight hours. The laundry stain removers were evaluated on their ease of use, effectiveness, scent, and value. When it comes to ease of use, performance, and price, OxiClean and Shout both have great reputations. I also reveal the results for the test I conducted to determine which stain remover is better at removing common stains, including grass, ketchup, olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and ink. Shout Advanced Trigger: A sprayable gel designed for persistent, hard-to-dissolve stains. This spray is even more concentrated than the triple-acting formula. I also suggest adding a half-cup of white vinegar or a quarter-cup of Downy Rinse & Refresh to the fabric-softener slot of your washing machine (make sure to press the fabric-softener button or the machine won’t add the product to the rinse cycle). Downy Rinse & Refresh is an acidic, super-low-pH formula that is designed to strip away gunk and minimize odor. It’s much more powerful than white vinegar and works really well on blitzing odors from synthetic fabrics. (Notably, it is not a fabric softener, even though it’s a Downy product that goes in the fabric softener slot.)

What Others Are Saying: Consumer Reports tested several stain removers and praised both brands. Experts claim that OxiClean MaxForce removed most stains within five minutes, and Shout Triple-Acting Spray is excellent for eliminating body oil, grease, and grass stains. Your Best Digs also tested these two brands and named OxiClean Versatile Stain Remover Powder the Best Overall Stain Remover and Shout Advanced Gel the Gentlest on Fabric .First, treat soiled and stinky areas with Hex Performance deodorizing spray or SweatX Odor Spray, then let it sit for at least a few hours. Follow up by washing with your favorite high-quality laundry detergent. (For odor removal in particular, I like Tide Ultra Oxi with Odor Eliminators, Kirkland UltraClean, and Gain + Odor Defense.) . For example, the Shout Advanced Ultra-Concentrated Gel Brush includes Isotridecanol, Ethoxylated, and Sodium Dodecylbenzene Sulfonate, which are cleaning agents (surfactants), and Subtilisin and Pectate Lyase, which are enzymes.

In some cases, Shout is slightly more expensive than Zout. But that largely depends on where you buy, so it’s worth shopping around to find the best price on either brand’s products.Jade Moscrop is the Deputy Editor for WhatsTheBest, specialising in lifestyle topics.

Overall, both are great options whether you’re not a budget or not—and both brands will last several months, depending on how often you use it. The OxiClean Versatile Stain Remover Powder is the best laundry stain remover to use when evidence of your wine night is visible on your clothes. While several of the other stain removers on our list significantly lightened red wine stains, this was the only product we tested that completely removed the stains. We also tried two more garments containing the same sets of stains, which had been previously made and allowed to set in. We then treated each stain the same way, comparing and contrasting the remover's effectiveness on set-in versus fresh stains. Many of the stain removers we've listed here will do the job when removing dried, old stains from clothes, but a tried and tested way is to soak the garment overnight in your chosen product before you put it in the wash. This laundry stain remover pen is the ideal solution for getting rid of stains while on the go without the need for immediate soaking or washing. “It’s definitely a product to keep on hand, though the small size and slow application process make this more of an emergency product, or better suited for small areas,” says one tester.
