100% Indian Washing Soap Nuts 1kg Use for Laundry, Dishwasher, Garden.

I first bought these September 2019 and just today (26/02/21) I need more. Family of 3 with 1 x child. I bought mainly for my dark colours, as the detergent always seems to leave a residue - probably because I mainly wash on low 30 Degree quick wash. I now use them for most of my washing needs. You do need to keep a tally of how many times you use them. We keep tally on a whiteboard. Pros: Environmentally friendly. Throw into the garden when finished and they rot down naturally. Cost effective - Can use just a handful five or 6 times. Last for absolutely ages. No smell/fragrance - I now add fragrance oils to a bottle of water and just use like fabric conditioner (That's another story!) Wash lightly soiled clothes really well without leaving a residue. Kinder on your washing machine. No cleaning the detergent drawer. Cons You will miss all the suds for a while until you get used to them. The little muslin bag is a buggar to untie but you'll learn not to knot it. Just tie tight. Do not forget to tie the bag. You'll have bits of the nuts throughout your wash. However, no where near as bad as a tissue, as the nuts easily shake off. You will miss your regular detergent smell and think your clothes aren't washing. These nuts DO NOT make your washing smell of anything. I've seen reviews saying they do. They don't!! Your washing will not smell of anything - period! I keep a litre bottle of water by the machine and add however many drops of fragrance oil (I buy Mystic moments but there are many more brands). Shake the bottle and add to the rince cycle in your detergent drawer. A real hit with no nasty chemicals.

The product came with a muslin clothed small bag, i used 4-5 nuts per wash, just put them in the small bag and put it in the washing machine with the dirty clothes. the nuts can be reused 4-5 times, then i would collect the old nuts, boiled them and used the water to wash my hair and add to bath. very natural and gentle on skin. then at the end, i would bury the nuts in the garden to add nutrient to soil, plant love it. so these are zero waste and environmental friendly product. i have been using the product all summer and they washed well, clothes looked clean and smell free. the grey water after using the soap nuts can also be used to water the garden, soap nut water protects plant from disease and bugs. overall this is a superb product and very good value of money, consider it has very long life cycle and everything goes back to the ground, nothing waste. i love it.

I have been trying to reduce the amount of chemicals that I use in my home and instead use natural products. I had read about the benefits of soap nuts for use in the washing machine, dishwasher, and for personal hair and skin care. They arrived within a week and were well packaged. They were bigger than I expected and are quite sticky. They come with a cloth bag that you can put them into in your washing machine. They don't smell all that wonderful, so I added some sweet orange essential oil to make it smell good. My clothes came out clean and smelled...OK, not as good as with washing liquid, but they're loaded with chemicals, so I'll take a less nice smell over that. You can use these soap nuts a few times, so they're very economical. Next I will be experimenting with washing my hair with it and making some dishwasher liquid. Overall, I'm happy with this product and will order again,

I have used these off and on for some years and am now using them on every wash. They always get the washing clean. Because they are natural they are good for sensitive skin and you can add your own softener, whatever that may be. I will say mine arrived inside plastic bags (not paper bags) in the box, tho I can put the bags in our recycling, its not really 100% eco friendly.

I have been using soapnuts for awhile. I love the clothes come out smelling natural and soft without the use of fabric conditioner. These soapnuts are great for washing cloth nappies making them soft, as fabric conditioner would affect the absorption of the nappies. I found that washing whites with soapnuts could make the whites a bit grey, but you could simply add a spoon of washing soda; I also use washing soda to treat the white collar/ stain first before putting them in the washing machine. I prefer using soapnuts for laundry and I have used them for washing dishes as well, 1kg would last about a year for four of us (family with two young kids) and that includes cloth nappy washing which is very economical. I have used other brands before but this is my first time with this one. It's cheaper but not as great as the others. With the other brands, I could use the soapnuts 3-4 times but this brand only 1-2 times, and I don't like that the soapnuts were sent in a plastic bag instead of a large muslin bag. I would definitely recommend soapnuts but not with this brand.

First time I have ordered from this supplier - nice acknowledgement after placing the order. Order arrived today and was well packaged. Lovely surprise in the box which is a nice touch. Soap nuts look super - they are big and whole - packaged in a sealed clear bag. When I bought nuts before from another supplier they were small and in bits and came in a cloth bag! Cotton bag supplied for using the nuts in the washing machine. I have looked at the website and seen more items that appeal, therefore, I am more than likely to use this business for other things in the future. I have been using soap nuts for a year now and would highly recommend there use as an alternative to commercial clothes washing products especially if you have sensitive skin or just want to reduce polluting our planet. Really good price ❤️
