## Description

Eco Natural Products 100% Indian Washing Soap Nuts 1kg Use for Laundry, Dishwasher, Garden. : desertcart.co.uk: Grocery

Review: Thorough Non-biased review after 1.5 years usage - I first bought these September 2019 and just today (26/02/21) I need more. Family of 3 with 1 x child. I bought mainly for my dark colours, as the detergent always seems to leave a residue - probably because I mainly wash on low 30 Degree quick wash. I now use them for most of my washing needs. You do need to keep a tally of how many times you use them. We keep tally on a whiteboard. Pros: Environmentally friendly. Throw into the garden when finished and they rot down naturally. Cost effective - Can use just a handful five or 6 times. Last for absolutely ages. No smell/fragrance - I now add fragrance oils to a bottle of water and just use like fabric conditioner (That's another story!) Wash lightly soiled clothes really well without leaving a residue. Kinder on your washing machine. No cleaning the detergent drawer. Cons You will miss all the suds for a while until you get used to them. The little muslin bag is a buggar to untie but you'll learn not to knot it. Just tie tight. Do not forget to tie the bag. You'll have bits of the nuts throughout your wash. However, no where near as bad as a tissue, as the nuts easily shake off. You will miss your regular detergent smell and think your clothes aren't washing. These nuts DO NOT make your washing smell of anything. I've seen reviews saying they do. They don't!! Your washing will not smell of anything - period! I keep a litre bottle of water by the machine and add however many drops of fragrance oil (I buy Mystic moments but there are many more brands). Shake the bottle and add to the rince cycle in your detergent drawer. A real hit with no nasty chemicals.
Review: zero waste product with multiple uses - The product came with a muslin clothed small bag, i used 4-5 nuts per wash, just put them in the small bag and put it in the washing machine with the dirty clothes. the nuts can be reused 4-5 times, then i would collect the old nuts, boiled them and used the water to wash my hair and add to bath. very natural and gentle on skin. then at the end, i would bury the nuts in the garden to add nutrient to soil, plant love it. so these are zero waste and environmental friendly product. i have been using the product all summer and they washed well, clothes looked clean and smell free. the grey water after using the soap nuts can also be used to water the garden, soap nut water protects plant from disease and bugs. overall this is a superb product and very good value of money, consider it has very long life cycle and everything goes back to the ground, nothing waste. i love it.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does this product remove stains?**
A: I always add a tablespoon of bicarbonate of soda to white wash and less to dark washes - I soak ballpoint stains in milk first; blood in cold water first; cant vouch for grass stains; paprika/tomato I soak in dilute bleach - but most other stains wash out very well. And you dont itch!! so on the whole yes.

**Q: Do these come in a plastic or linen bag please?**
A: Hi,They come in a re-sealable plastic bag but include a small linen bag with them for laundry use etc.ThanksAndy

**Q: How do you use them in a washing machine?**
A: There should be a little cotton drawstring bag with the soap nuts. Place a handful of soap nuts in the bag and put it into the drum with your wash load. Someone has thrown my bag away so I put them in a sock a knot the open end 

**Q: So how do these work in a dishwasher please...intriqued...love using them in the washing machine**
A: Put 5 nuts into the cutlery compartment with cutlery, choose a standard wash programme. No need to use the dishwasher rinse aid. Works well. Hope that helps

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good product, prompt delivery
*by C***O on 27 September 2016*

I have been trying to reduce the amount of chemicals that I use in my home and instead use natural products. I had read about the benefits of soap nuts for use in the washing machine, dishwasher, and for personal hair and skin care. They arrived within a week and were well packaged. They were bigger than I expected and are quite sticky. They come with a cloth bag that you can put them into in your washing machine. They don't smell all that wonderful, so I added some sweet orange essential oil to make it smell good. My clothes came out clean and smelled...OK, not as good as with washing liquid, but they're loaded with chemicals, so I'll take a less nice smell over that. You can use these soap nuts a few times, so they're very economical. Next I will be experimenting with washing my hair with it and making some dishwasher liquid. Overall, I'm happy with this product and will order again,
