Very Good!
I'm not a stereotypical tree hugger, but I've been slowing adding more organic & natural products to my household. This laundry detergent is by far my FAVORITE earth friendly product I've found.
While using all natural ingredients which are safe for people and the environment this product does a fantastic job of cleaning clothes!I add 1/4 cup of Borax to large heavily soiled loads to boost the cleaning power.With two small children our many loads of laundry have come out very clean, colors bright, whites white and smelling great, too!P.S.No fabric softener is needed either!This stuff is great!
This detergent advertises that it will stretch for more loads than it really does.Even when the quantity was doubled in my HE machine, the cleaning performance was merely average.In addition to this the measuring cup included cannot be completely emptied without undue effort, so I had to learn how to eyeball squirting the correct amount directly into the machine.Overall, a decent product, but not fantastic.
I look for products that I am not allergic too, that don't cost a lot and this one fits both categories. You REALLY don't need to use more then an ounce of the product (I have a HE washer). And it does the job. It has gotten out some stains in my children's clothing that other main stream free and clear detergents have left in. Even though it is scented, it does not leave a scent in the clothing. The built in fabric softener seemed to work at first when the weather was a bit more humid, but when winter hit, so did static cling in the dryer and I did have to add a fabric softener to my wash.
Love the product. Get's two jobs done at once and is good for the ecosystem.
I ordered this and got it 3 days later.It came from Texas to Ohio. I was so worried after reading all the bad shipping reviews! Mine were 6 orange like I ordered and were not leaky.It has a light orange scent not overpowering at all.I have been using Ecos Free & Clear and do not like it! It has great reviews but it left my husbands clothes like they still needed washed. I got this because I am still trying to find an affordable natural detergent that actually cleans! So my point is the shipping was fine and so is this product.
I like the scent; it's almost masculine.It does an OK job on clothes.Stuff doesn't come out super white unless it goes in that way.You have a chance at getting a stain out if you use a squirt to pretreat and rub in.I'm going to continue to use it because it's "green".
great product..donot need to use that much..the cup that comes with it helps with the measuring....which is imp. with the new machines.if u use too much u have too many suds!!! Also, now that I have these smaller bottles, I can buy a larger one and fill these up..much easier to hold that a large heavy bottle.
I purchased this soap locally for 12.00 for one bottle, so the price on Amazon is several dollars cheaper per bottle!I make my own soap for the warm/hot water loads, and I use this for loads using cold water.It cleans just as well as the store brand I was using (Purex) and is easier on the environment and our clothes.It does not leave a residue, although I do have softened water.When I take the clothes out of the dryer (no need for softeners, as there are soy softeners in the product), my clothes just smell clean.Nothing artificial.The soap doesn't bubble and the water doesn't get slippery, but I know it's still working because my clothes come out clean.
We have a baby and toddler both with eczema and otherwise sensitive skin. I needed a detergent that could clean all our clothes at once as I don't feel like doing kids clothes and parent's clothes separately. After a decision to switch to greener products, I bought this at my local CoOp to give it a trial run. Found it to clean all our clothes as well as any brand of conventional detergent I have used before (i.e. Tide, Kirtland's, and assorted baby detergents). Also, it rinses clean. I was happy to see it on Amazon.
I am very pleased with Ecos Laundry Detergent. Not only is it healthier to use because it contains no strange chemicals but it smells fantastic and actually works just as good if not better than your average detergent. I truly enjoy the fact that my clothes don't have that "perfumed" smell you typically get from most detergents, this product does have a smell (that of magnolia and lily) but it is rather faint and is from essential oils not artificial perfumes.
