The best and worst stain removers have been identified

We reveal which one should have a spot in your laundry. - by Laura Barry

WATCH: Don't have any stain remover handy to remove a stain from your white sneakers? Try the hack in the video below.

Stains on clothes are nothing new. From the grass stains on the knees of you children’s school uniforms to the red wine stain on your crisp white blouse, stains are just a part of life, but removing them can be a proper challenge.

Consumer Watchdog Choice has tested some of Australia’s most popular laundry stain remover products to find out which ones really work, and which products aren’t worth your money. 

All products were tested as pre-wash stain removers, and Choice tested each product by attempting to remove perspiration, grass, mud, olive oil, blood, tomato, mineral oil, chocolate ice cream, baby food, makeup and nut oil from cotton material swatches, followed by a cold wash.

Choice tested 37 stain removers, and the one that came out on top with a 79% Choice Expert rating was the Sard Wonder SuperPower Stain Remover ($6.99), which was followed closely by Aldi Di-San Oxy Action with Enzymes Pre Wash Stain Remover which received a score of 78%, as did Coles Ultra Prewash Stain Remover.  Sard Wonder Deo and Sweat Stain Remover scored the worst of all stain removers tested, getting just a 52% Choice Expert Rating.
