Overall Score - Brand
37 - Xtra Plus Oxiclean
43 - Purex Mountain Breeze
54 - Tide PurClean
56 - Purex Plus Clorox2
62 - Tide Free & Gentle
76 - Kirkland Sig (Costco Brand)
Just a few to give an idea where they stand. Higher score is better for those wondering.
Yea the Arm and Hammer is similar to Purex. Some work well and others not so much.
Have to select the exact mix even in the same name brand. Tide is that way now also. Some at the top and others at best mid/lower level.
Coming from a guy who puts everything I can in together.

Purex is HE rated so it works in HE and regular/older style washing machines.
I've never had an issue with it in my front loader.
Keep in mind, you need to pick the detergent based on the TYPES of stains your clothes get.
In other words, if you're in the office all day in air conditioned rooms, a detergent that does well for body oils is all you need. No point paying for a detergent that's Amazing for Dirt and Grass in this case.
Also, you can Boost lower end detergents for the rare cases.
Oxiclean powder and Chlorox Beach Free (both at Target in scented and unscented) added to cheaper detergents better than washing $$$ Tide down the drain for office clothes.
On the flip side, if you have little monsters from hell with dirt, blood, grass, and more, top end Tide/Persil that have ingredients to tackle everything will be worth it.
Finally, the enzymes and ingredients in LIQUID detergents degrade over time. Even Tide recommends only a year of shelf storage, so while buying a TON of liquid detergent might seem a bargain, if it's sitting 2, 3+ years, it won't work as well by then.
Powdered detergents can sit years - just wrap the box in thick, moisture proof plastic bags.

But with the frequent dollar sales on cheap detergents, if Xtra becomes hard to find, it's worth testing a few now so you know there's always something cheap you can buy to substitute.
