Product Reviews of Dropps Laundry Pacs, Fresh Scent, 20-load pouch (pack of 3)
Product Review: Good Product But Expensive
Summary: 4 Stars
I like the convenience, the quality and the fact that it is eco friendly but I go through one bag in one week. You usually need two dropps for one load, so that means only 10 loads per bag. At $19(when you subscribe &save) that is quite steep for laundry detergent. Product Review: Works great
Summary: 4 Stars
It is a bit pricey, my only fault with it. I got them for my husband to use, he had a stroke 19 years ago and is now paralyzed on one side. He wants to do his own laundry, but it is hard for him to pour the liquid in and remember how much to use. With this, he just pops a tab in, turns it on, and uses a dryer sheet in dryer in place of fab softner in the washer. It is worth the price to me to make it easy for him, and it works well also. I also like it is 'green', not much waste and safe to use. Product Review: Leakage 101
Summary: 2 Stars
I bought several packages of this laundry dropps. Unfortunately, several of the little packets were damaged, and the outer packages weren't sealed. Not knowing this, I left the plastic bag I had stored the packages in on my wooden floor. Later, I picked up the plastic bag to find that liquid had leaked out onto the floor, ruining the finish in a 6x8" area. Examining the packages, I found that two had burst packets, and also defective outer packages. I haven't opened the third package, but am pretty sure that at least some of the little detergent capsules are not sealed.
I used the product, and it seems to work well. On clothes. It's effect on floors, cardboard, and books is disasterous. If you buy this product, check for shipping damage immediately.
Product Review: Perfect for laundromat life
Summary: 5 Stars
If your laundry room is not in your house, you will be very happy with this product. Rather than carrying a big bottle with you to the laundry room/laundromat, or measuring out your liquid in advance, you just have to grab a couple of the little soap-grenades contained in a laundry dropps bag.
If you live in a house where you have your own washer and dryer, I think this product is unnecessary and probably a waste of money (though I haven't priced it out compared to regular store brands).
It's true that the instructions recommend using two dropps on a large load, but I've read in many sources that you don't need to use as much detergent as the soap companies would like you to think, so I always just do my load with one dropp regardless of how big it is. My girlfriend doesn't think I stink, so I think that is a safe way to go.
All last year I would lug my Tide bottle down to the basement of my apartment building, forget to bring it back up, and then go down a few days later to find out that other people had used up the whole thing on their own laundry. So in that sense laundry dropps save me a lot of money because I don't lose my detergent all the time.
Be aware that the dropps need to be handled carefully. If you need to transport them some great distance, use a tupperware container or something so they don't get squished. But you can put them in a jacket pocket or something if it's just a little bit, they're actually more sturdy than I was expecting.
Product Review: so good
Summary: 5 Stars
I got a new HE washer and was looking for a detergent that I could use that wouldn't fade my dark clothes. I saw this product rated in Consumer Reports (it got a great review) and it mentioned that because it's enzyme free, darker clothes would be safe. I have been using it now for the last two months and I can't say enough good things about it. I love the fresh scent, it gets the clothes really clean and I'm so excited to be helping our environment by cutting down on packaging. Love it!
