Tru Earth Eco Strips Detergent Fragrance Free Reviews Summary

Ease of Use

Pros:

• "I purchased these to take on our vacation. Easy to use, easy to pack."
• "First order came with the perforation down middle for easy separation."
• "Also, since I'm not pouring liquid into a cap (each sheet is portioned out in squares) I am able to resist the urge to add too much detergent like I was doing before."
• "Easy to use large sheets perforated so you can use half a sheet for small loads."
• "With this I tear off one little sheet & drop it into the washer!"
• "It is so easy to use. 1 sheet to the dispenser (I tear the sheet in little pieces). No measuring, no mess."
• "I like the ease of use with these sheets. It’s so quick and easy to throw a sheet in the wash without the waste and hassle of a liquid detergent."

Cons:

• "The instructions say you can add two sheets for a big load, but that made little difference, and made this a more expensive proposition, all for lesser results."
• "This only will dissolve in the detergent drawer if I tear in little tiny pieces and then there is still some residue left."
• "But I used 2 sheets for a light, twin sheet & NO suds whatsoever."
• "I really wanted this to work, as I love the idea of not buying plastic jugs. One strip or even two strips is not enough to get things clean."
• "The package says to use several sheets for a large load. I used six sheets and still very little suds."
• "I needed to use twice the amount to do the job and I needed to dissolve it in a bowl of hot water first."
• "The last few times I used it in cold water on a gentle cycle the detergent didn’t completely dissolve and stuck to my clothes."

Environmental Impact

Pros:

• "This product is part of my eco drive and this doesn't contain any plastic whatsoever so much better for the environment."
• "I especially like the 'kind to the earth' characteristics, reduced packaging, no plastic, takes up little space."
• "I love how small and earth friendly it is."
• "The blessing of nothing but a piece of cardboard to recycle and carry around is a huge bonus!"
• "Really like that they do not come in a plastic container and the waste reduces my carbon footprint."
• "These little tabs work as well as any detergent I have ever used. And they use ZERO PLASTICS in their packaging."
• "They are more sustainable and don’t use plastic."

Cons:

• "I thought I was completely avoiding plastics when using laundry detergent sheets, but I guess most (all?) of them contain PVA."
• "But researchers are finding that a lot of it ends up in the environment."
• "However, Amazon delivered it in an approximately 8 inch by 11 inch by 4 inch deep box along with 4 air-tubes for packing."

Scent and Skin Sensitivity

Pros:

• "The scent is just right, NOT overpowering for my allergies."
• "It leaves an incredibly light scent."
• "There is no skin irritation after use of this product."
• "And 100% scent free which is essential for me."
• "It has absolutely no scent, which is what I had hoped for."
• "I am allergic to scent! This product gets my clothes clean with no scent or residue!"
• "I've finally found something like this that works for my family that has many with sensitive skin."

Cons:

• "Would have given a five star if it were not for its lack (or absence) of scent."
• "They did NOT clean my clothes."
• "I ended up have an allergic reaction to both the scented and unscented."
• "The smell of this product is in no way natural."
• "The scent smells a little artificial and was immediately turned off to it."
• "This one made me itchy the first day."
• "Laundry sheets are great, but not this brand. Did not like the scent and made me itch."
