Hi! We're trying to understand how people actually do laundry — where, how often, and what products you reach for. This will take about 5-6 minutes, and there are no right or wrong answers.

Across everything you just rated, which matters most and least when you're actually choosing what to buy?

  • Price
  • Stain-removal power
  • Scent
  • Eco-friendly ingredients
  • Skin sensitivity / hypoallergenic formula

  • Two
  • Three or more
  • I'm not sure
Q09
Price Sensitivity (Van Westendorp)Required

A few quick questions about price for a standard bottle of laundry detergent (about 32 loads). (Template note: adjust the size/loads-per-container to match the product you're studying before launching.)

  • At what price for this bottle of laundry detergent would you think the quality is too low to trust it?
  • At what price would you consider this bottle of laundry detergent a bargain — great value for the money?
  • At what price would you start to think this bottle of laundry detergent is expensive, but you'd still consider buying it?
  • At what price would this bottle of laundry detergent be so expensive that you would not consider buying it?
Q10
AI Interview

Explore the story behind the respondent's most recent laundry detergent purchase or brand switch: what triggered it (price, stain performance, scent, a specific bad experience, availability), what alternatives they compared it against, and whether they plan to stick with their current brand. If they said they always buy the same brand, probe what would actually have to happen for them to consider switching.

Q14
Message

Thanks so much for sharing your laundry habits! Your answers will feed into research on how products and pricing can better fit real routines — no individual responses are shared outside the research team.

What’s included

  • AI follow-ups

    Adaptive probes on open-ended answers that pull out detail a static form would miss.

  • Attention checks

    Built-in safeguards against rushed answers and low-quality respondents.

  • AI-drafted copy

    Wording, ordering, and branching written by the AI — tuned to your research goal.

  • Auto report

    Themes, quotes, and a plain-English summary write themselves once responses come in.

How it compares

We reviewed the closest templates from other survey tools. Here’s what they do well — and where this template goes further.

Why this template

  • Goes beyond basic usage questions with a matrix of detergent-choice drivers plus a MaxDiff exercise that forces respondents to rank what actually matters most vs. least, avoiding flat 'everything is important' data.
  • Includes a Van Westendorp price-sensitivity module for a standard detergent bottle, giving laundry brands and retailers real pricing thresholds rather than a single willingness-to-pay guess.
  • Uses an adaptive AI follow-up interview to reconstruct the real story behind a respondent's most recent detergent purchase or brand switch — something a fixed-question form can't do.
  • Combines quantitative brand-switching and satisfaction metrics with household/demographic context, then auto-generates a report, so teams get structured findings without manually cross-tabbing everything.

QuestionPro

Laundry Usage Survey Questions and Template

A standard fielding-ready survey template covering laundry frequency, product usage, and preferences on an established enterprise survey platform. It's built on QuestionPro's broader survey infrastructure, so it benefits from mature distribution and analytics tooling, but the template itself appears to be a static, pre-set questionnaire rather than one with adaptive follow-up logic. No pricing-sensitivity or trade-off ranking modules are evident from the page.

What it does well

  • Backed by a well-established, full-featured survey platform with broad distribution options
  • Likely offers standard customization of question wording and branding within its template library
  • Fielding-ready template aimed specifically at laundry usage research

Where it falls short

  • No indication of adaptive AI follow-up questions — respondents answer the same fixed question set regardless of their answers
  • No visible price-sensitivity (Van Westendorp) or trade-off prioritization (MaxDiff) question types for detergent choice drivers
  • No automated per-response quality scoring or transparent AI prompt methodology mentioned

Jotform

Laundry Feedback Form Template

This is a simple feedback form template rather than a full market-research survey — it's built for collecting basic customer feedback (e.g., for a laundry service) using Jotform's drag-and-drop form builder. It's easy to customize and deploy quickly, but it isn't designed for deep behavioral or purchase-driver research. There's no evidence of research-specific instruments like importance matrices, price sensitivity, or brand-switching analysis.

What it does well

  • Easy, fast form customization via Jotform's well-known drag-and-drop builder
  • Free tier available for quick, low-stakes feedback collection
  • Simple format likely to have low respondent drop-off for short feedback

Where it falls short

  • Feedback-form format, not a structured research survey — lacks matrix, MaxDiff, or Van Westendorp question types for analyzing purchase drivers
  • No adaptive AI interview to probe the story behind a purchase or brand switch; all respondents see the same static questions
  • No automated quality scoring or auto-generated research report — output is raw form responses
