I have been using Earth Breeze laundry sheets for months. I like them very much. They do the job and I don't have to lug heavy containers into the house. When my girls went off to college, I spent time putting aside "stuff" months ahead of their leaving...not because they weren't independent but rather knowing my doing this would help me and them through an emotional transition for all of us. It worked


I've been doing the same thing.  Picking up "stuff" when I see it and especially if it's at a good price.  ILike you, it has nothing to do about her independence.  It's about not waiting till the last minute and trying to get as much as possible to help with the cost over months than a couple of weeks.

I also have purchased and used the Earth Breeze laundy sheets in the unscented formulation to help with both my and my granddaughter's sensitive skin.  I can say that they do work nicely.  If you have a smaller load then half a sheet is good.  For larger loads you use a full sheet.  They leave no residue of any sort on the clothes when coming out of the washer.  And they clean well- I saw no difference in cleaning power between these and Tide pods.  If carrying large boxes of laundry detergent is an issue for you then these would certainly help.


Thank you.  Good to know.  My daughter has sensitive skin too.

HSN carries laundry detergent sheets. I've also seen them in my Wegman's store.

Years ago brought my first washing sheets from Evine S20 was the brand I started off with for myself. When I went to visit my mother one time  brought them to do  her laundry. OMG were they the talk of her senior apartment complex as when the other women saw I threw a sheet into washing machine they thought I was doing wash wrong  lol ,cause I had no container of detergent with me,they became inquisitive and asked what I put  into machine told them they were wash sheets which they never heard of but each one wrote down the name as they thought it would be so much easier then lugging a container for them .Over the years I have seen many companies come out with the washing sheets I haven't brought a plastic container of detergent in many years.

I also liked EcoEgg  was on HSN years ago was from the Uk they were washing beads you put in this plastic egg .I see they are sold online .

My daughter got started on the sheets  as her guy always poured to much detergent into machine so this was perfect for them.

Think any college girl or guy would really like using them ,so easy no suds overflowing from the machine which can occur for ones who are doing their own wash for the first time.

I would buy a few packages and give them as a send off gift to any college freshman.

 

 


You changed my thinking. I liked liquid detergent. So I could pour the liquid on any spots on the clothes.

 

BUT when "the fellows" do a load of wash, it is crazy how much liquid detergent they pour into the washer. The laundry tub still has lots of bubbles after the load is finished with 2 rinses.

After stressing not to use so much detergent,  I end up saying I will do the wash. Maybe that is their plan to begin with. I should buy the sheets and hide the liquid detergent.

@Mom2Dogs  The sheets that I bought were not perforated.  I had to cut them with scissors (or you can tear them, they tear easily).

I use them.  They work well and are much better for the planet.

I like the concept but wasn't sure how it actually got my laundry clean. So I went back to using Nellies.

I have not tried any, but did see some ad about 7 million less laundry plastic jugs to recycle.  Or at least offer refills instead of a new jug every single purchase.  I will have to try them.  I currently put my liquid detergent in a much smaller container.  (3 or 4 loads).

@wagirl    I used to use Nellies but I found they left my clothes crunchy.   I changed over to Esrth Breexe sheets over a year ago and I love them.  They also,leave your clothes very soft and no buildup from all the junk in regular detergent which  is more than half water and the rest  chemicals
