Unscented Laundry Pods by AspenClean, New and Improved Packaging, Zero Plastic, EWG Verified™, Vegan, Non-Bio, Hypoallergenic Natural Laundry Detergent - 36 Count

The trick to successful laundering with the pods is washing everything with warm water, not cold I wash even my black linens in this & add a scoop of the oxygen bleach stain remover powder before hitting the start button & my blacks dont fade The oxygen bleach despite its smell does not fade darks like a normal bleach would The pods are also effective alone if you are not an oily person If you have to launder in cold i would suggest their liquid formulas I have been a loyal user of these laundry products for years as they are ultra skin safe After two or so washes i would notice they removed the film from store bought mainstream brands that were designed to stainguard your clothes That film would irritate my skin but also ive noticed my clothes just felt so much more clean after switching As a bonus my deo does not stain the pits of my shirts when i use aspen clean It would react with mainstream store brought brands to leave nasty yellow stains Once those are in clothes they really do not come out If a couple pods arrive broken i just use my oxygen bleach scoop to spoon the loose powder over my laundry.. it works the same as tossing in a pod Aspen clean fan for life 🧜‍♀️ 🍃

The pods on this item are always open. Today I got a new container with maybe 3 unopened pods. Its unfortunate because this product cleans very well. Its expensive for what you get in usable pods.

Update: tried both the lavender and the eucalyptus scents. Neither scent lingers for very long at all. On one occasion, I did receive a shipment with broken pods, but that didn't bother me much. It seems when I order only detergent and nothing else from Amazon, the product ships straight from the factory and is fresh and in good shape. Otherwise, it might come from a warehouse somewhere and be older, hence the dried out pods? Who knows. *** Overall, I am very happy with the performance of this laundry detergent. The pods arrived, shipped directly from Aspen Clean, in great condition. They were intact; nothing was broken. I used one pod per load in my compact front loading washing machine and added vinegar instead of softener. There was no residue from detergent powder when the cycle was through. The pods seemed to have dissolved completely. I bought the unscented variety. The laundry smells great: like NOTHING at all! Even cotton t-shirts that usually have some sort of musty smell after being laundered smelled like NOTHING. I had that problem for years with some Lands' End shirts: I would wash them, and they'd smell really weird, even though they hadn't been particularly soiled. That smell is finally gone, thank goodness. I have tried other "green" detergents before (liquid ones), but they typically would leave my clothes smelling "musty" and unpleasant. Aspen leaves them smelling clean, without scent. If you have problem stains like tomato sauce or marker, you will still want to pre-treat them. I use a plant based stain remover spray from my regional grocery store chain. Even so, a shadow of the tomato sauce remained on the item. Maybe soaking might do the trick. The laundry even seems to dry faster, if that's possible. I line dry, and the first load already started to feel dry when I was finished with the fourth load. I will definitely reorder this product and am happy with its performance.

I do love this detergent for the health and environmental factors. EWG rated! It works well, clothes are clean, and no harmful/artificial smells.....but, I just received this months order and the pods are all dry and discolored, like yellowed plastic. And 90% of the pods were so dry they were split and all of the powder is loose. Similar to a few of the other reviews I've seen. I'm returning for a replacement, I'm still willing to give them more chances because i feel the product is worth it. Will update if I receive

I love using these nontoxic products to do laundry, HOWEVER, there have been multiple times the pod casing does t dissolve and is melted like glue on or two articles of clothing. A rewash fixes it but shouldn’t happen in first place. Secondly, I bought 2 more containers to restock my laundry and both had many emptied pods inside the container and laundry detergent was WVERYWHERE…what a mess. So I ordered replacements and same thing with 1 of the 2 containers. At this price point I’m moving on to Attitudes liquid detergent
