Do not buy this product - especially whilst coronavirus is active

published

Purchased 1.8L Dynamo Professional Deep Clean with Odour eliminating technology from Woolworths.

Used the product for the first time yesterday to wash my bed linen, which was dried outside in the sun and put back on my bed yesterday afternoon.

Have spent today massaging itches all over my face, then my scalp and legs also began to itch unbearably. Even my mouth is itchy. Spoke to a pharmacist who queried what I had changed that might have caused this allergic reaction.

As you will see from other reviews detailed here, this is a known problem with this product, I wish I had read the reviews prior to buying this product.

Worst dermatitis of my life!!!

published

I have just returned from my local GP after being prescribed a short-term dose of Prednisone due to the horrific whole-body rash caused by Dynamo Laundry Dual Capsules Odour Eliminating. My entire body is covered in itchy, hot dermatitis and I am bruised from the incessant scratching. BE WARNED - I had been using the product for a week before symptoms appeared and have re-washed all items in different liquid however am still suffering from unbearable itching. Never ever again!!! Do not buy this product!!!

Dynamo Professional deep clean with Odour eliminating technology

published

Although I like the smell, this product made me itchy and break out into a skin rash all over my body.
I DO NOT recommend this product if you suffer any allergies.
This product is unsafe. The ingredients are not even shown on the back of the bottle; it directs you to go to a website that doesn’t have this information either! You have to email to company to ask about what ingredients you are washing your clothes with!!! SO BAD!!!
I will not use this company’s brands again unless they are willing to show ingredients.

Purchased in July 2021 at Woolworths for $10.00.

terrible,persistent smell.

Bought it 14/01/2020 at New World in NZ and the "odour eliminating technology" has ensured it will not be purchased again. It smells overpowering and affected our laundry for 2 days.

Terrible allergies from Dynamo

published

If I could give zero stars I would. I have had allergy symptoms for three weeks and have just put two and two together that I changed my laundry detergent three weeks ago. I have dry itchy red eyes, sneezing, runny nose and coughing - all due to using Dynamo. I have never experienced allergies before using any other product. I’ve recently changed back to my old detergent and have immediately felt the difference. Took a couple rewashes of my sheets and clothes. I’m appalled it is still on the market.

Chemical Smell

published

Partner bought several bottles of Dynamo Pro Odour remover on special at supermarket. Cannot use.

The chemical smell remaining after drying is overpowering.

Can't sleep at night with irritated sinuses, runny nose, and coughing fits, occasional nausea.

Had to rewash bed linen a couple of times with previous product (not Dynamo) and leave all windows of apartment open for days to try and eliminate the chemical smell.

Terrible product. I hope there is no longer term health problems from usage.

Just threw out the bottle after one wash!

published

I just used the new Dynamo Professional with Odour Eliminating Technology for the first time. The chemical smell coming off the clothes as I was hanging them out was so strong it was unpleasant and I had the taste of it in my mouth. I was left wondering what is this mysterious new technology. The liquid kind of looks like Harpic and the nasty taste in the mouth and urge to get away from the smell is kind of similar. Hmmm! I went to Google to see what I could find out and came across all of the reviews here. Due to my own unpleasant experience and the reports of some people suffering welts, I've thrown the almost full bottle in the bin and I'm in the process of rewashing the clothes. Dynamo, what were you thinking? This new formula is awful.

Dynamo soaking smell

published

I have been a dynamo user religiously for many years, however I have found in recents months that if i leave a load to soak over night there is a horrific ammonia smell in the load in the morning. I can't stand it. It is stinking out the whole house. Have they changed the ingredients?

What's happened to Dynamo Eucalyptus liquid?

published

Last year I ditched bottles of both Dynamo Blue and Dynamo Professional following the formula change which now includes a foul-smelling chemical that can't be rinsed out. The clothes were unwearable, and you couldn't sleep in the sheets. At least I could rely on Dynamo Eucalyptus, which seemed to have escaped the 'upgrade'. Now it too smells of the same pungent chemical. So, after decades of being a loyal Dynamo customer, I'm done. Manufacturer, can you really afford to inflict this sort of damage on your own brand? Market testing, anyone?

Smell remain on the clothes is too strong and feel headache

published

I used dynamo for many years and i was happy with it. However, new dynamo with lighter weight which replacing the previous formula is the worst solution. It leave very unpleasant smell on my clothes regardless i rinse it for many time. Please divert back to original formula. Should change the development team. Bad solution.

Eucalyptus smell is synthetic and sickly

published

Doubtful there is anything natural about the Eucalyptus scented version of this product. The smell is horribly synthetic and would be amazed if any actual eucalyptus oil is in this product.

Welts and Rashes

published

I have used Dynamo for a long time and have been happy with the product. However the new Ödour Eliminating Technology has left me with a reaction of Welts. Everything has to be rewashed with a different product. I am very disappointed.

Clothes Stink!!

published

Have used Dynamo for many years and been very happy with the product, however,The new "Odour Eliminating Technology" does not work at all. In fact it makes your clothes stink, and if you have gym clothes washed straight away it still amplifies the sweat, stink to unbearable smell. Had to rewash everything with eucalyptus oil and white vinegar to cover up the strong stink left behind from the Dynamo. Will not be purchasing again.

Welts & Deadful Smell

published

Have been using Dynamo religiously for many years, was a Great product. The new Odour Eliminating product has an overbearing scent & is intensified by the dryer (lasts for days). Add to this, that my partner began breaking out in welts (hasn't had a reaction to anything else in all of his 58yrs) & only happens when he wears clothes washed in this new product. Have had to rewash everything in a different product, hasn't had any more welts.

Does Dynamo contain enzymes ?

It used to have quality enzymes dirt lifting technology thigh, nowdays I would highly recommend against using these new formulas of this pee poor effort Henkel company - don't know the supermarkets still have the gall to sell this crap on their shelves so unless you want to use the containers for other uses such as buying and using commercial clothes washing liquids then would advise against this once great laundry detergent now only good to use as weed control or perhaps place in the toilet bowl to stop mosquitoes from breeding

Yes it does. It also contains Acticide, citric acid, caustic soda, boric acid. If you have any adverse reactions please contact the company. I went for tests and informed them in August 2017.
