5.0 out of 5 stars Finally, clean & safe way to wash clothes! TIPS... July 22, 2011
...included below...

I have been using these for 7 months and have been very happy with them. I am so glad to buy a laundry-cleaning product that does not come in a plastic jug, that does not leave a soap residue on my clothing or in my washer, and that cleans our clothes efficiently!

My fiancee, who has a very labor-intensive, sweaty, chemical-laden job, reports that even his work clothes come out of the washer smelling like nothing. Which is a huge improvement over the stinky pile of clothes he tosses in there! He likes that there is no scent on the clothes after they come out of the washer (no stench, no chemicals, no flowers, no perfume, just "clean").

The little bag is very durable and stays closed in the wash (we tie the drawstring in a knot for security). They also successfully run through the dryer. We have a front loading maytag commercial quality washer and a standard maytag gas dryer.

I purchased the 2 lb. bag, and I'm excited to finish it, so I can find a new use for the bag, as well. Reusable produce bag...travel lingerie bag... toiletries bag...etc.

I put "samples" of soap nuts from my big bag, into the little bags, and give to loved ones (I usually stuff the bag for them and tell them to store them in a ziploc bag or glass jar and only use about 5 or so nuts per "use", which equals about 5 loads. This way, they can get quite a few trials of them and have some on hand while waiting for their own shipment to arrive!). They sell a three-pack of the bags on amazon.

TIP 1: we keep a make-shift dry-erase board & marker on the wall by our washing machine to tally the washings with those IIII-slash line markings, using two lines for especially heavy or dirty loads.

5.0 out of 5 stars Inexpensive and coconut free January 6, 2012
Amazon Verified Purchase
I last ordered this exact product 365 days ago. So this bag lasted my family (we have a very messy toddler) 1 year +; I have 5 nuts left. How's that for inexpensive? I'm allergic to coconut and I've yet to find a laundry detergent without coconut derivatives in it. Soap nuts keep me from having itchy, dry skin.

A couple of tips: I bought the extra 3 bags, so that I don't have to go searching for the one that accidently got placed in the dryer. For really dirty clothes, I sometimes use a second bag as a booster. When washing with cold water, I let the clothes and soap nuts sit in the water for at least an hour before I run the washer. For stains I use either Vaska peroxide bleach or Orange oil spray. If I want a little bit of smell, I add lavender oil and water to the fabric softener cup.
It feels so awesome to use such a basic product on my toddlers clothes -- no lavender oil for him.

Update on 17 FEB 13:

I bought the 5 pounds of pieces last year and they lasted me about 14 months. I'm back buying the 4 lb. whole nuts, because I think the whole nuts go further than the pieces. I'm buying the extra three bags again, as they wear out after a year of hard use. I've started adding about 1/3 of a cup of baking soda to my wash to counter our hard water and that seems to have streamlined the whole process. I'm still adding lavender oil in water to the fabric softener cup. And I've found that a half hour is sufficient for soaking the clothes and nuts. Oh, and we have two kids now, and we don't use bibs. I've also used it successfully on cloth diapers. This is a great product!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great product and service! January 18, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase
I ordered the soap nuts and received my order within a few days. Included was a free sample for some of their face cream that I wasn't expecting too.

This is my first experience with soap nuts, NaturOli are the only brand I've tried. I've done several loads of wash so far and the nuts still look like they can handle a few more.

The clothes really do come out of the dryer feeling soft without using any dryer sheets or fabric softener! Only down side is with it being winter here and the heater running all the time I have a SMALL static problem...not sure how to deal with that.

I would recommend these and I will be buying them again.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not what I was hoping for May 4, 2012
I was skeptical but hopeful when I bought the Soap Nuts. I was thrilled to continue my journey into toxic free cleaning. However, my hopes sank when I washed my husband's first load of work clothes. (He is in construction) The smell remained along with the dirt. I tried soaking the nuts in warm/hot water for 20 minutes as suggested. Poured the water and the nuts in the washer and even added borax as recommended. Still the same results with his clothes and my 3 boys' clothes. The sweat smell never seemed to really leave. I used lavender essential oils in the dryer which helped but felt it was only a cover up. I am sorely disappointed with the results and am not one to leave negative comments, but I couldn't let this go. My whites are dingy and regular stains remain even with using vinegar and other natural brighteners. Thus, I must try another "green" laundry cleaner.

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect. September 21, 2012
Amazon Verified Purchase
Originally, I was searching the internet for a recipe to make homemade laundry soap. I stumbled upon a blog that raved about these. The author even gave tips on how to get the most out of these, which I will share in a moment. I love how my clothes smell like ... well, nothing! It's great. I love how my clothes are coming out clean WITHOUT the use of toxic synthetic chemicals. I appreciate the "green" factor of this product. I have washed several loads...even super dingy ones, and expect that the odors will still be there or that my clothes won't be clean. I am grateful to have been proven wrong.

now to the tips (same person on the blog also left a review here):
1. keep a tally sheet by the washer to keep track of how many uses the nuts get out of each bag. (I use 4 nuts per "tea bag" and have used for 5+ loads)

2. Use Bac-Out to pre-treat serious stains. 1 part Bac-out to 2 parts water.

3. I use wool dryer balls with a couple drops of lavender oil... I have learned that the oil is almost pointless and could become costly.

Note: I have small children, which means that I have stinky pee clothes and pants with dirty dirty knees, yucky homemade wipes... In the past I have had to use baking soda to eliminate the odor and some kind of non-green, toxic chemical to get out the tough stains. The above regimen works. I love the soap nuts!

The soap nuts work alright on clothes that are not too heavily soiled. For ground in dirt, mud or set-in stains, even blood it did not take the stain out completely.
