Simply put a few Soap Nuts into the included cotton sack and drop it in your laundry. Your clothes come out clean, vibrant, and soft. Replace your laboratory detergents and softeners with the soap made from Nature by Nature. Your clothes, your skin, your family, and your planet will thank you.
Ingredients: dried fruit of the Chinese Soapberry tree.
Also contains: one cotton wash sack, one pair Maggie's Soap Nuts Seed earrings made by Balinese artisans, and Love.
Package contains full instructions and everything you need to wash up to 80 full loads of laundry.

| I ordered the small "try it" size about three weeks ago. It finally came in today. "Oh boy, I've been waiting for these". When I opened the package, I did not hear the "tah dah" in the background that I was expecting. I'm not sure what some of these reviewers are used to smelling like, but the smell of the berries was far from pleasant. Kind of a vinegar, pickled peach smell. But, I thought I'd try it out, maybe they would smell better after they got wet? Well, they did smell a little different...but not good. My idea of "earthy" does not include a wet dog or decaying fruit smell. That's what these little guys smelled like. After doing a load of bath towels, I was relieved I didn't buy a larger package. The towels didn't even go to the dryer. I ran the load through again with my usual detergent to get the smell out! One the up side, I did notice the towels felt very soft. But the smell just wasn't worth the softness. |

I feel absolutely stupid for even trying these. I should have known they were a gimmick. Me and my husband have allergies to a lot of soaps, so I figured why not at least give them a try? After reading all of the wonderful reviews I figured they'd at least work on lightly soiled clothes. WRONG.
I'm convinced that most of the good reviews are either from people that don't mind their clothes smelling bad or trying to sell these things.
I used them with a small load of lightly soiled clothes. The clothes came out smelling WORSE than when they went in. They weren't any cleaner and the only way I can describe the smell is wet stinky dog. I've used all kinds of normal non-scented detergents, and while some of them didn't clean well I've never had any cause my clothes to smell really bad like these things did. I read on some other sites that you could use them to wash other stuff too. I broke a couple open and rubbed them on my hands under water just to see what they'd do. My hands did end up really soft afterward, but the smell was HORRIBLE (yet again, wet dog smell pretty much). I couldn't even get the smell off until I washed my hands a few times with soap.
Oh yeah, the ones I ordered were also supposed to come with a bag for the nuts; it didn't.
I must say, this is the weirdest least effective product I've ever ordered. I wouldn't recommend these to anyone. I ended up throwing the whole bag away. |

| We have been using the soap nuts for about 3 months and love the fact that we have found a natural product for washing which also saves us using fabric sheets in the dryer. |

| Like many, I was skeptical about the cleaning power of these little soap nuts. When I received the package, I wondered what in the world I had gotten into. But I tried them and was pleasantly surprised when my wash came out clean!! I do put Borax in my wash (always have) so I'm sure that helped a little. I like this product so much, though, that I have recommended it to many friends (who all think I'm nuts.. soap nuts!) It will not leave your wash smelling like flowers or some meadow after it's rained (though I don't think that detergents ever smelled like what they said they would), however, a few drops of essential oils on a reusable dryer sheet takes care of that! I am definately hooked on the soap nuts! |

| A very good product I would order again. You need to pull them out before rinse cycle. |
