I haven’t found that to be an issue with any of the Earth Breeze products. The other advantage of not relying on pods, for the laundry and the dishwasher, is that I’ve found that pods can eventually get squishy or start to dissolve a bit. Why add irritants to something that is touching your skin or can pollute the environment? I appreciate what it doesn’t have: parabens, phthalate, phosphate, bleach, dyes, and fragrances. The laundry detergent is hypoallergenic and dermatologist tested (which is very important to me). If you have children and have safety concerns, be assured that there isn’t much chance that a child would want to put what looks like a piece of paper in their mouths, plus the detergent is not toxic.Īll of their products are certified vegan and cruelty free. Theoretically, I don’t like the fact that the manufacturer controls how much detergent you use. That is one of the reasons I’ve never tried pods. I appreciate that you have the option to control how much detergent you use. The detergent is perfectly safe in fact, they tell you that you can use the sheets for hand washing. It just takes a quick rinse to get it off so it isn’t a major issue. The only possible negative I can think of is that when you use only a ½ sheet (for smaller loads) you get a bit if residue on your hands if you rip, rather than cut, the sheet. I’m sensitive to fragrance so I’ve been using the Fragrance Free version. The Laundry Detergent Liquidless Eco Sheets™ work as well as any detergent I’ve used. All of this is much, much smaller than what I would find on a store shelf. The laundry detergent and cleaner sheets are in a 7” x 10” heavy paper packet and the dishwasher tablets are in a 3” x 7” x 1” cardboard box. That’s a personal pet peeve – over-large packaging that is just going to end up in a landfill. Even the shipping packaging was sized to the products. The first thing you notice when you get your package from Earth Breeze is that there is little waste and the products are compact. I tried the Laundry Detergent, The Hope Cloth, Power Pebbles dishwasher tablets, and the Multi Surface Cleanser. Earth Breeze sent me a sampling of their products to objectively test so I could share my experiences. Regardless of how wonderful their mission may be, if the products aren’t good, it wouldn’t matter how noble their goals are. These goals hit their 3 R’s of regenerate, redistribute, and reduce. They manufacture a line of cleaning products with the goal of “leaving the world holistically better than we found it.” They want to “support and heal our planet, but also give back to the communities and to people in need.” I don’t love the cost of products and trying to find the best choice, and I really don’t like the packaging waste, the use of toxic chemicals, and even the smell of many of the products.Įarth Breeze shares many of my, and probably your, concerns. There are aspects I like… I like the result and sometimes I like process. We should all be trying to phase out plastics from what we purchase.To be honest, cleaning is not my favorite thing to do. The product works very well, and it is plastic-free. Then they could more closely pinpoint where something went missing instead of just sending out a duplicate product (which drives up the cost for all of their customers). But I do wish that Earth Breeze would pay the cost to ship their product with tracking. I mean, it *smells* like laundry detergent! I don't blame Earth Breeze that there might be some dishonest USPS employees out there. My husband is a USPS letter carrier, and when I asked him about my theory that the product is being stolen (our most recent Earth Breeze shipment hasn't arrived and it has been ten business days since it shipped!), he said that all letter carriers know what is being shipped in those unmarked envelopes. However, I think somewhere along the shipping route with USPS, Earth Breeze products are being stolen. Product is wonderful shipping model needs rethinking.Įarth Breeze is a great product with great customer service.
