Earthborn ElementsSoap Flakes (1 lb), Homemade Laundry Detergent, Tallow-Based, Unscented

Soap flakes work well, came well packaged, and were delivered by the scheduled day. I purchased it because it does not have many ingredients and additives, it is cost effective, convenient as it saves time and effort from manually grating soap, and it is well packaged, so it is easy to store and maintain product humidity level.I also like that it works well. The clothes come out clean, it has not caused sking sensitivity for us, and it is unscented. It can also be used to clean bathroom with appropriate formula.Two ways to avoid issues regarding undissolved flakes in the washing machine are to either use the hot water cycle, or to previously dissolve the soap flakes in a small ampunt of hot water before adding it to the washing machine. I plan on continuing to purchase this product.

Edit - company responded promptly with offer of replacement item. Great customer service and quality product.Would have given the product 5 stars if the bucket wasn’t defective. I will revisit my review if the company responds with a new lid or replacement.

These Earthborn Elements soap flakes are exactly what I needed for making my own non-toxic cleaning and laundry products. The 2-gallon bucket is a generous size and should last me quite a while, even with regular use.The flakes dissolve easily in warm water and don’t have any overpowering scent—just that clean, natural soap smell. I’ve been using them to make homemade laundry detergent and all-purpose cleaner for around the farm, and they’ve worked great. My clothes come out fresh and clean, even after getting dirtied up in the goat shed or chicken coop.I also love that these are pure and free from unnecessary additives. That’s a big deal for us since we’re trying to keep things natural around the animals and for our family. The resealable bucket is sturdy and easy to store, which is another plus for anyone doing bulk DIY cleaning.If you’re into homesteading, natural living, or just want a simple and effective cleaning base, this is definitely worth having on hand.

Since 2020, my wife and I make our own laundry detergent. Usually we purchase a bar of Fels-Naptha and grate it up. This is way easier. It's hypoallergenic, and performs great. The cleaning action is the same as every other major brand. Personally, I use it in conjunction with Oxiclean, Washing Soda, and an enzyme cleaner.

Perfect for my home-made laundry soap!!! We all have sensitive skin and making my own laundry soap has saved us hundreds of dollars a year!

I really like this and would give it 5 stars but it needs to dissolve in cold water first before adding clothes. If not the flakes are all over clothes even after even a second rinse. It dissolves great in hot water. I love the way it is unscented. Ingredients are great. I mix it with washing soda & some borax. Gets clothes super clean & is gentle. Adding a few drops of lavender essential oil in rinse-it’s honestly the best detergent. I should add that I have a top loader.

I use this to make my own laundry soap and I love it! It’s non scented and the flakes are small enough to dissolve in the washer. I think this tub is a good amount for the money spent. Using these soap flakes I feel like my laundry gets cleaner as opposed to other soaps I’ve tried in the past. My clothes feel fresh. Will purchase this again!

Well too bad I cannot give a ZERO star because that is what this "thing" deserves. I am a first time customer of this brand. I make homemade laundry detergent and I've always used castille soap. I decided to give this product a try instead of grating bars of soaps, but since I started using this product, I have noticed that all the clothes have hardened spots that look like wax has melted into the fabric. I had already recommended it to a few friends. This product is not safe and is a complete fraud. What a terrible product! Stay away people.
