I love them! I now recommend them to
anyone that asks! I think they are amazing and the fact that they are a natural soap just makes me thrilled. See, I have been making my own soap for about a year now
and it works and we like it. It is cloth diaper safe and never aggravated my baby's bum. I was content
with it. BUT then I got my sample of Eco
Nuts Soap! Now I want more....
I tested these little guys out and I have to say I was quite impressed...ESPECIALLY how well they cleaned the dirty
cloth diapers...they came out clean and smelled fresh. The way they work, is you get a handful of nuts...about 5 and then
you put them into the little sash baggie they send along with your soap, tie it off and throw it in the wash with your dirty
laundry. When your load is done, you take the baggie out and you can use it for your next load (whenever that may be).
They can be used for 5-7 washes in hot water and up to 10 for cold water...you can tell when they are done when they start
to get soft/dissolve. My Eco Nuts made it through 7 loads of laundry and that included cold and hot washes AND extra rinses
for the cloth diapers. I don't know why..and this is totally silly but I found these Eco Nuts so fun to use!
I
am definitely a Eco Nuts convert! "You'd be nuts to use any other soap!"
We received a trial sized box of Eco Nuts and with hesitation, I washed my clothes with them. To my surprise my
entire load of laundry came out clean! For small loads of laundry without major stains to clean up, Eco Nuts is a
very Eco-friendly option. You simply put the nuts into the laundry bag and toss it in the wash machine. Try it
for yourself!
I received my trial of soap nuts from The Baby Bum Store, who recently began carrying Eco Nuts for all their cloth diapering customers in particular. I tried them out this
past week and they've actually been worked pretty hard in a short amount of time. I've
used them in both cold and hot, regular loads, heavy blankets, and cloth diapers, all successfully. The real test happened
today, with an incredibly yucky load of diapers which contained some toddler explosions. I double rinsed before I washed
(even though I usually rinse only once), but was shocked and pleased to see that the diapers came out fresh smelling and
clean, even though this was already the 5th wash my soap nuts had been through (and they are generally able to be reused
for 5-7 washes). Final score? Indescribably poopy diapers 0, Eco Nuts 1.
"I was very skeptical when i first received an e-mail about Eco-Nuts
but i was intrigued. I did get a free sample from Eco-Nuts to try at home. Having a daughter going through potty training,
i had the perfect laundry test and i was amazed at the results. It is easy, put 4 nuts in a cloth bag (provided in the box)
and let the nuts do the work....Eco-Nuts come from a tree, so they are 100% natural. And bye bye plastic detergent bottles,
they come in a recycled paper box...."
"I hardly ever use a new laundry detergent on cloth diapers or clothing first. I'm too scared of
ruining garments I care about. Eco Nuts was no exception. First I tried them out on towels-they seemed to clean fine. I was
still unsure about them, so I did a load of napkins, kitchen towels and bibs. I figured that these were some of the most soiled
items in the house (besides diapers) and wanted to see how the Eco Nuts worked on these. I admit I didn't have high hopes.
I guess I just felt that my detergent needed to look more like...detergent. I was impressed and pleasantly surprised when
the load came out with all the food removed, clean and smelling fresh....."
"Little L has really sensitive skin, just like his daddy! So it only made sense for our family to
at least give these a try. I had heard and read a lot about them but just hadn't found the time to actually order them. Then
they popped up on the babyhalfoff website and I knew that it was time to order! Long story short they were amazing. I love
how much easier it was to carry a few hollow nuts down to the laundry room than some huge chemically filled bottle of tide!
It was so simple too, just throw a few nuts into an included muslin drawstring bag, toss it in, and you're good to go! Little
L had no reactions and the got ALL of our clothes clean! Once the nuts have been used a few times you can boil them down and
use them as a liquid all natural cleaner! Mother nature never fails to amaze me!..."
"I love these little things! This was my first time trying out an Eco Nut and I
have to say that I LOVE them and will be buying them in the future! Very interesting.
I put them in their little baggie and washed my clothes. They came out CLEAN and smelling fresh. Granted they smelled like
JUST water thought because they don't smell, so my next load I added a BIT of softener just to smell up the clothes and it
worked and they smelled good and they were still clean...."
"I was kindly sent a sample of Eco-Nuts, and they really are ingenious and simple.
You toss the little bag of the "nuts" in with your laundry, and clothes come out clean. That's it. No chemical smell.
No phthalates, phosphates, or other chemicals.... They are also beneficial for septic and grey water systems (image the lessening
of the nutrient load to surrounding waterways as well)... Thanks, Eco-Nuts for this sustainable, green product. Here's to
chemical free laundry."
"What if I told you that one option
is to not use a detergent? Did you just look at your computer like
it was from Mars? Did The Eco Chic just say that you can wash cloth diapers without a detergent? Stinky,
smelly, nasty, stained cloth diapers? What if I told you I washed them with dried fruit shells? Now you’re
really thinking that I’m NUTS aren’t you? Well I’ve
began using EcoNuts to wash my cloth diapers and I love them! ..."
"...I decided to give the Eco Nuts a challenge. The first load I use them in
was my husband’s work out clothes. I wash them separately because they stink that bad. I was amazed that
they removed all of the odor(some detergents can’t even do that!). I proceeded to do the rest of our laundry and
they did a pretty good job. The stain lifting action is not very powerful. I have two young boys so I tend to
get my share of tough stains. You would definitely need a stain remover for most of the stains you encounter. Other than that the Eco Nuts were just as good if not better than my regular
Tide detergent..." 
"...Yes, they clean diapers. I took my diapers out of the dryer and cautiously sniffed
them fully expecting to detect a urine or poo odor. Nothing. There was no scent, just nothing. Nothing to me means that they
worked!!! I remember after my first load of diapers were dry and clean I was pretty darn amazed. I have used them many times
now and am still impressed with the way they clean. They leave no residue which is awesome, you won’t have to strip
as often, if ever. I don’t think you can find a “greener” way to wash your clothes or diapers..."
"... I'm sure you're skeptical - believe
me, I was too. How can a satchel of dried nuts get my stinky clothes clean? Quite brilliantly. These nuts look freaky
deaky, I won't lie, but they totally work. When I washed a load using Eco Nuts, my clothes came out just as clean as with
any other wash (sans the nasty chemicals, perfumes and toxins)..."
"I tested them out on all kinds of laundry. First, the cloth diapers. Clean, no smell! Secondly a few loads
of towels and stinky dish cloths. Again, clean and no smell! Lastly, and the one I was most skeptical to try out
on, my husbands work clothes. CLEAN, NO SMELL! I was ecstatic!"

"Just used the Econuts
for the 1st time. I was super skeptical and decided to first try them on a load of cloth diapers. I only used 2 nuts and
the diapers were SPOTLESS!! I practically had fibers up my nose trying to smell anything!"- MJ I just have to say, I love this stuff. My son has eczema (as do my hubby and I) and
ever since we made the switch to Eco Nuts, no more eczema. LOVE it!!- JG "I
really like the product. My husband washed a fleece blanket, that my dog keeps wanting to lie on, It smells really bad, with
the econuts and nothing else, and it came out of the dryer soft, not static-y (i don't know if that is a word) and no stinky
dog smell." - D. Vermont
"Am so happy to be liberated from heavy boxes of detergent when I do my laundry. I have to go down an elevator
and across a long lobby of my apartment house to get to the communal laundry room. The econuts, not only wash my laundry
clean and bright, but they have proven economical. They are also ecologically safe and in today's world, that is very
important. A happy consumer." - R. New York
"I've been using EcoNuts for my laundry for about a month now--and that includes the really
stinky loads I did after the heat wave hit. They work great, and are very easy to use and carry. I have terrible
eczema, but the EcoNuts really do seem to wash out clean, leaving nothing behind to make me itch. The best part, though,
is not having to lug a bottle of detergent between my apartment and the laundry room--and not having to measure and pour for
every load." - F. Oregon
