Clean People Concentrated Laundry Detergent Reviews Summary

Environmental Impact and Packaging

Pros:

• "I bought these pods to cut down on waste--in both packaging and all the extra water you buy with traditional liquid detergent."
• "This is a great product for HE appliances and the company has a great environmental message."
• "The packets dissolve quickly and the product comes in a light weight paper box so I feel like I am helping the Earth - no more clumsy plastic jugs in my house."
• "I love that the packaging is recyclable. The pods contain no plastic. Most of all, how it cleans my laundry!"
• "With a paper box, the only thing that remains when all the soap is gone is simply paper. I can easily recycle that."
• "Love that this product seems on the better side of what you wash with. Trying for a healthier alternative. The packaging contains no plastic which I love."
• "I’m done with large plastic containers for my laundry detergent."

Cons:

• "They are a lot smaller than I thought they would be... My clothes come out of the washer not smelling like anything even though these are supposed to be scented."
• "For at least 1 in 3 loads I get an item with the pod dissolved into it and have to rewash an item or two."
• "The box the product came in was shipped in a bag and therefore crushed."
• "However, the plastic pods didn't dissolve in my front loader."
• "These pods leave whatever is around the pod ALL over our clothes regularly."
• "The pod did not dissolve thoroughly thru the whole wash cycle."
• "It’s sad because this stuff is not cheap. I’m disappointed was looking forward to not buy plastic containers anymore."

Cost and Value

Pros:

• "The cost per load is quite a bit less than Earth Breeze."
• "You pay more than with traditional chemically treated detergent but, like buying organic foods, but you're getting a better product."
• "This is a great product at an affordable price!"

Cons:

• "I never do half loads of laundry, so once I figured out the actual cost per load, it was pretty expensive."
• "Turned out to be a very expensive product. Now we have to pay $300 to have a plumber come out and fix our washing machine."
• "Definitely over priced tho but other than that I love it."
• "I also find the price much too high. Even if it would wash well. It is too expensive!!!!"
• "It’s sad because this stuff is not cheap. I’m disappointed was looking forward to not buy plastic containers anymore."

Scent and Cleanliness

Pros:

• "I love the scent and the way the detergent cleans."
• "Laundry detergent smells fantastic- cleans the load well and for extra soil I use 2 pods. Smell lasts a long time."
• "Clothes are very clean and I love the lite fragrance."
• "Seriously, the best laundry detergent I’ve ever used. No allergic reactions or itchy skin like I’ve had with past laundry detergents. Totally hooked!"
• "They clean great, and my clothes have a wonderfully light fresh scent that just smells like 'clean' smells when they come out of the washer."
• "I love the smell of Gain, but it's full of chemicals and makes me sneeze. This one provides a scent while still being ok for sensitive skin."
• "I love the smell, not over powering, just smells clean."

Cons:

• "They are a lot smaller than I thought they would be... My clothes come out of the washer not smelling like anything even though these are supposed to be scented."
• "It was advertised as smelling like tide, far from it, it smells in the package but not on the clothes."
• "I purchased the Fresh scent and my only complaint is the smell is slightly 'chemical' smelling."
• "They smell good but you can't really smell the scent on your clothes."
• "The smell is not strong enough to last."
• "I really had high hopes for these laundry pods. Unfortunately, they didn’t get my clothes clean. Also, there was no lasting scent."

Skin Sensitivity and Allergies

• "I have severe eczema but the light lavender scent has not bothered my skin at all."
• "These are great for people who have allergies to the normal detergents."

Cons:

• "I was hoping to love this product, but after some testing it seems I’m sensitive to one or more of the ingredients and it makes me itch a lot."
• "I purchased this stuff thinking it would help with sensitive skin. Only to find out shortly after using my skin started to break out."
• "The sweet petals only becomes awful while wearing the clothes and body heat activates the scent."
• "While Sweet petals made our clothes smell great, without overpowering. Clothes came out clean, my husband is allergic to it."
