We’re disappointed in ourselves…to have waited THIS LONG to replace our Shout stain remover spray. Meliora’s Laundry Stain Removal Soap Stick is almost too good to be true — zero-waste, clean ingredients, affordable, and most importantly, it works! Buy, buy, buy.
While we have been strong Dropps laundry pod fans since we reviewed it in February, Meliora’s Laundry Powder might be giving them a run for their money! We purchased the lavender scented laundry powder from Meliora and a fan of its simple, biodegradable ingredients, low waste packaging and incredibly affordable price.
BUY. Run, don’t walk. Meliora’s Bleach Alternative, which is color safe, is a buy. We love that it’s unscented: clothes come out just smelling clean. The ingredients are limited and Leaping Bunny Certified. Packaging is recyclable and the formulation is super concentrated. The only pitfall for some might be that it’s a powder and not a convenient pod/sheet/tablet — but we don’t mind.
We really like using Meliora’s foaming refillable hand soap - it’s a buy from us! The soap is super concentrated, light-weight and comes in unscented as well as a few scented options like Lavender, Lemongrass, and Tea Tree. The packaging is plastic-free and the soap is also palm oil-free. We have loved Meliora’s Laundry detergent ❤️ in the past and now we can buy the hand soap concentrate all in the same shipment! Plus, it is made in the USA.
We have tried a number of eco-friendly, plastic-free or low-waste laundry options — including pods, packs, sheets, and powders — including Meliora, Cleancult, Dropps, Sheets Laundry Club, Grove Collaborative and more. We took a look at cost per load and estimated annual cost assuming that a typical family of four probably generates between 8 and 10 loads of laundry per week.
Meliora’s refillable all-purpose cleaner is an ABSOLUTE BUY. We love the minimal, zero waste packaging and the ability to refill for up to 288 ozs (or 18 bottles!) with one container of the soap refill Cleaned spectacularly, palm-oil free (hard to find!) and SO incredibly affordable that it is a no-brainer.
