AIDEA Laundry Detergent Eco Friendly Plastic Reviews Summary

Environmental Impact

Pros:

• "No large plastic to recycle and they are great for travel too."
• "The only waste is the packaging and that's biodegradable."

• "If only the large box wasn't wrapped with plastic this would be a solid win for eco products."

Convenience

Pros:

• "This is also GREAT for travellers - you can use a little portion of the sheet to handwash something in the sink, and there's no mess."
• "They came in a very flat outer box and packaged in 3 brown paper packets of 20 sheets each inside of that."
• "It was very easy to use, simply throw it in the washer on top of your clothes and the water melts it away."

• "They actually smelled very clean."
• "They have a nice, fresh scent and are so easy to use."

Cons:

• "There is very little 'fresh linen' scent so if you equate scent to clean laundry then you may be disappointed."
