I'll have to give them a try, I'd love to eliminate those huge jugs of Tife HE. When my DD was in high school she attended a few sports camps and I ordered laundry sheets. They were great because she didn't have to pack powdered or liquid detergent.

I may have ordered them from Magellan's or

Any other people try Tru Earth and can you report results?

Yes, been using them for 3 or so months now. Love how easy it is to use and love no longer lugging large bottles or boxes around. There's been no difference in my laundry, still fresh and clean each time.

Good to know about the sheets for the day I'm no longer able to find Tide granular. I never did understand why anyone would buy a non-concentrated liquid detergent. We all have water at home! I just saw a TV commercial where the 'Clever Tide Pods User' berates another housewife for lugging watered down detergent. Never mind the one-size-fits-all capsule issues of *pods*.

We use powdered detergent in one washer, liquid in another. The dry kind comes in large boxes that we fill into smaller tupperware bowls for easier handling as it's used. So little of this stuff is used in our empty nest home that I find it hard to be concerned about adding a bottle or two (at most) or one box per year into the recycling bin.

Elmer, there are a lot of single or two people households in the world and it adds up. I just got a subscription started with Tru Earth for a shipment every three months. Makes it a little cheaper that way.

kathsgrdn, I can look up my purchase history because I buy the powders on Amazon.

Two kinds - the color variety (no oxy bleach), a 3.2kg box now on hand was purchased in Oct, 2020. The white variety, with O2 bleach, 6.5kg in Oct 2017. Both boxes are getting low but not yet needing replacement.

I'll stick to what I said, I find it hard to be concerned with the packaging. I guessed it was one box per year and this info shows it's less than that. Detergent packaging is recyclable, so if properly disposed of, nothing "adds up".

Use what you like, we can all make different choices. Most people use too much detergent in their washers, cutting back on dosage is an even better way to be environmentally conscious, save money, and have clothes that are cleaner (without detergent residue).

I got some Earth Breeze brand and they seem to be working pretty well (front loader). I think they will be convenient for our family, and as my kids are both in college, I think they appreciate that it is not as heavy to carry back and forth to the laundry; can't spill and make a mess, and Mom can send them sheets so they don't have to buy it with their own money, haha. It's great to hear other people's experiences with this type of product.

I use a similar product called Sheetz. I get a new box every few months and they always send an email before it ships so if I am not ready, I can delay the shipment. I love not dealing with the heavy plastic jugs. And I understand that Meijer stores now carry them. So I will look next time I go there.

Does anyone who tried these have an apartment sized washer? That's what I have in the RV, and it would be less weight and less space taken up, if I could use the sheets.

@tami_ohio You can tear the sheet in half for smaller loads.

Thank you!

I got a box of powdered Tide from Amazon this week. Costco has it too. I’d like to try the sheets Thanks for sharing this, Kath.

PS Are the sheets made of something un-biodegradable?
