Nellie's Laundry Soap Review: All Natural Laundry Soda

Nellie's laundry soap is an all-natural powdered product designed to wash clothes.

Many people also use it to wash their cloth diapers.

The product is hypoallergenic, and claims to rinse away residue free, things that are very important to people with sensitive skin.

Here's a picture of the product:



The product is also quite concentrated, so compared with many other powders you don't have to add much to each load.

Here's another picture showing this comparison:



This product is extremely popular in reviews on Amazon.com (although obviously there are some people that don't like it.)

It comes in the traditional powder, and in addition can be found as laundry pacs as well (which they call "nuggets.")

This company has a whole line of natural laundry products actually, including not only the detergent but also oxygen brightener and dryer balls.

I would love to hear from people who've used any of these products sharing how you liked it, good or bad, and your experiences with it. You can share your review here.

It's Fabulous!!!

by M D-K
(Walnut Creek, CA)

With great reserve I have switched detergents to Nellie's Detergent from standard front-loader national brand. I am flabbergasted by how completely well the product works---my laundry is extremely greasy/dirty/smelly due to maintenance jobs, and Nellie's actually cleans superbly and efficiently! What a surprise!

One of my grown children is allergic to numerous scents, and Nellie's has come to our rescue! It is also wonderful for baby clothes, and elders who can't stomach heavy scented cleaners.

I can totally endorse this product.

Love Love Nellie's Powder & Nuggets: I've Been Using Them For 2 Years

by Angelika
(Ottawa, Canada)

I started to use Nellies Powder almost two years ago, but since it is not always available I had to buy other brands when I needed to.

I was always happy when I found Nellies, and have now developed the habit of buying a few refill bags at a time, or alternatively I will buy the nuggets, which is a great convenience.

Nellies does not boast a perfume, like many other laundry detergents, thus people looking for a fresh smell may not like it.

I don't like perfumes so this works for me. What I do appreciate is that the laundry does smell clean.

When I started using it I mainly used it for our dog's bedding, our bedding and towels. They all came out clean and fluffy, even though I do not use softener on any of these items.

I then tested it on clothing, cautiously at first.

Now I use it on everything, and even my very special delicates. No residue, no fading and no lint on clothing.

My HE front loader needs less cleaning, my laundry is bright and does not fade.

I do not have issues with badly stained or soiled laundry. I do however have to treat oily/fatty stains (mostly because I am messy in the kitchen).

I only use cold water for my laundry, maybe warmer water will get the stains out better, not sure.

Love love Nellies. It is environmentally friendly. That fact works for my conscience.

It is gentle on our skin, and gets the job done.

It is also cost effective. My laundry costs have dropped tremendously.

Everyone I have spoken to that does use it will not use anything else again.

I would like to see it be available in more stores, and not always have to go out of my way just for one product.
