“I really wanted to try these because the reviews looked so good and they feel too good to be true! My clothes come out cleaner than other laundry soaps I’ve used and it took a stain out of my bed sheets that hasn’t come out with any other! I am converted I love these so much, so economical and great product!”
“I love the fact that I’m using an eco product and can put used berries in the garden. I don’t think they offer the best clean possible so I also add grated laundry soap bar to the wash”
“I am pleased I have tried these. Leaves clothes clean. No fragrance on the clothes. Hardest thing is to remember when it's time to replace the berries. 5 washes but who keeps track of that?”
“This has been the best purchase, it is just so amazing, I use it all the time, and have barely made it through one bag - whilst using it for over a year !! It is just so cost efficient, and good for the environment! I think I am so conditioned to think 'fragrance' = clean, but I think this has taught me that that is not true! however if you still want the clothes to smell fragrant, I suggest using the essential oils with it too!! ah man, such a good product!”
“Wasn't a 100% sold on these at first for our clothes as I was so used to strongly fragranced detergents/fabric softeners (my mother loves highly fragrance products). I had not long left home and dived into a low waste lifestyle so it was more getting used to the lack of 'pretty' smells (they smelt a little vinegar'y). I was a little back and forth, particularly for my partners heavily soiled work clothes (doesn't cut it for clothes an infantry soldier has worn out field for 2-3 weeks straight with no showers). However since having a child and using MCN's that require hot washing, they work great. I use 5 in a bag along with half a dose of a soaker product as recommended for the prewash; and for the main wash the soapberry bag again with a full dose of soaker along with a small amount of eco-friendly powder detergent from the supermarket. So not using them alone however all the guides for MCN's say if using eco-friendly detergents to double the dose for effective cleaning. I would feel very comfortable using these on my childs clothes alone. It's cut down the waste and cost of doing so many loads. Even if you don't use them 100% of the time, it's a great laundry option for light to moderately soiled clothes or someone who requires a sensitive washer. In addition if you save the berries after using them the recommended five times and boil them, you can get a little more soap from them which works well as a pre-soak (I do this with several just to strengthen the resulting solution). More bang for your buck !”
“I've been using these for 2 weeks now and so happy. They clean effectively and leave clothes soft. I have used them for some delicates which is great”
