Reviews

Never received this item

"I can’t review something I never received. . I have contacted the company twice with a promise for a response 2 days after receipt of my request for this item not delivered but only a request to complete how I liked the way my request was handled. At this point I do not believe I will ever receive this item I paid for!"

Susan D. (1/5)

Wonderful Fragrance!

"The wonderful scent lingered not only on my clothes but also in my whole home. When I had guests over, the first thing they remarked on was how good my house smelt. I told them it was the laundry detergent!"

Tabitha L. (5/5)

Absolute best!

"Since switching to “the laundress” I get compliments everywhere I go! My clothes smell and look amazing!! Best products ever!! The beauty sleep is amazing for bedding and I use it on towels and it just creates a tranquil escape when you use it. All products are 10/10! Thank you"

Coleman D. (5/5)

So good!!

"Amazing smell, feels very luxurious to use. Dispenser is easy to use. After the wash, scent lingers but it’s subtle, definitely not overwhelming to anyone who may be sensitive to that."

Hunya u. (5/5)

10/10 detergent!

"Does a great job cleaning, doesn’t build up residue in the washer, love the convenience of the pump + measuring cup combo! Fresh, light scent and is gentle enough for sensitive skin"

Lindsay M. (5/5)

Amazing scent

"Love the smells and the fact that the scent is long lasting. I own every scent and I cant get enough of it."

Angelina P. (5/5)

Love this Detergent!

"I have used this for years, love the subtle scent and effectiveness of this detergent."

Paula D. (5/5)

Missing the Unscented

"I love The Laundress products, but am so disappointed that you appear to have discontinued the unscented Baby Detergent. Despite it's silly name, I really appreciated having an unscented option. I don't enjoy heavily scented products that clash with my parfum. I know you're trying to market this as a replacement for eau de cologne, but it isn't and I don't want it to be. Please bring back the unscented."

L.C. L. (5/5)

fantastic product

"I really love the subtle scent, and not only does it clean well,, but it makes a great spot treatment as well. Love that a little goes a long way. . . great product. Debbie Hyde"

Debbie H. (5/5)

I love this stuff. . .

"I've been using both the laundry detergent and fabric conditioner for years and I swear by it!"
