Laundry detergents come bearing all kinds of promises, but what we want most from them is good value and clean clothes. We put to rest the liquid versus powder debate and determine which product will save you money and get the job done by testing top brands — and even a home recipe.

1 bar of soap, grated
1 cup washing soda
1/2 cup of borax
All these ingredients can be bought at your local supermarket.
