In a Soapnut Shell

Do you want your laundry clean, soft and fresh naturally?

Use soapnuts!
Environmentally friendly, sustainably produced, bio-degradable and compostable


I saw this posted on T&T two days ago. Never heard of Soapnuts before but after searching the net I noticed it has been around for a while. The product sounds incredible if it really works. I looked under Testimonials and it seems as if they give out free samples so I have contacted them for some. :rotfl:

I have been using these for over a year now on my daughters cloth nappies, you can use them until they go black which is more than the stated 2 or 3 times. As they are natural they contain no bleaches (which even non bio contains bleaching agent) so ocassionally I add ecover laundry bleach to brighten whites during the winter however sunshine is the best bleach and its free!
I live in a v. hard water area and they don't make things softer for me so don't expect too much from these.

I've used them and wasn't that impressed. Turned my cloth nappies yellow. I use Eco Balls instead which I find are much better with Ecover laundry bleach for tough stains.

All in all, both solutions will save you money though.

Wow - clean laundry for free ( well almost)

got my soapnut sample today (2 weeks or so waiting) and will try them this week.

Got some soapnuts though the post about 5 days after ordering sample - they are really great - got things clean - thanks for the heads up

[greenpixey]

mine arrived yesterday in the post. Have not had the chance to try them yet though... :D

[Mumofthreeboys]

I tried to order a free sample and was told they don't do freebies anymore!! Will have to pay the £2.50 for a small bag!!

[madnis7]

it says on the front page of their website -
For free samples please send a stamped self-addressed envelope to the address below. " just send them a SAE. It would amazingly bad CS to not honor this.

[greenpixey]

They have probably been overwhelmed by people from freebie sites asking for samples and have now changed it to a small charge.

[Mumofthreeboys]

They haven't got that offer for SAE on website anymore!!! They now talk about a 'sample bag' for £2.50 (I can't remember exactly how much).

got mine yesterday. Tried them today, but cant say I was too impressed. Had dribbled tangerine juice down my T shirt last night and it was still there after I did the laundry using the soapnuts. There was also marks left on another top. Used 8 shells, more than suggested in directions for use. So, sorry, they have all gone on the compost.

What a coincidence! My son's top also still had tangerine juice on it :eek:. They did manage to get lots of other muck and dirty marks off though so maybe they don't like citrus :confused:

[vellum]

the offer is still open but need SAE.

[now a mum&skint]

I ordered some and am waiting on them arriving (Bought some to try, I like the idea........if they work and dont discolour my clothes) Will let you know what I think when they arrive.........I like the eco-friendly part as well as the moneysaving theory. I hope they're worth it xx

[jenijellybean]

I changed my mind about using them when I saw what they looked like! I would have loved to have been converted to eco-washing but these are just not for me...
