Dropps Laundry Fabric Softener Pods, Lavender Meadow (32 Pods) - Laundry Additive for Softening & Protection - HE Compatible Mineral Based Ingredients Laundry Supplies

I’ve been using this fabric softener for years now. I am allergic to synthetic fragrance and also have issues with eczema and this product is good for both. Please disregard reviews that say it doesn’t dissolve when they place it in the rinse cycle, as the instructions clearly say to place it at the very beginning of the wash. Some people really either never read nor follow instructions, even such clear ones as place in washer with laundry detergent. I’ve included a photo of the instructions that come with this product. I will say that realistically not much fragrance remains if you put clothes in the dryer, but my hang dry clothes do retain a slight lavender smell and all clothes are as soft as a regular liquid softener. Some reviews say they clump together, but I just put them in an air tight jar and have never had an issue with moisture or clumping. When used correctly this product works extremely well.

I really like Dropps products. The laundry soap cleans really well, the fabric softener removes static and very slightly softens clothes without a weird residue in the fabric. It leaves behind a very subtle but pleasant scent. I have a very sensitive nose and skin. I’ve tried all the scents and love the orange blossom the best. Unfortunately Amazon doesn’t offer orange blossom fabric softener at this time. I ordered it directly through their website. BIG MISTAKE! Good luck ever getting your order. 9 days later it finally ships out, the slowest and most expensive shipping method possible. Customer service is rude, condescending and lies about the status of the order. Major hassle over laundry products!?? Seriously?!? Order through Amazon and avoid the shipping headache. Get your products quickly and as scheduled so you don’t have to deal with rude twerps through email. I’ve ordered 3 different times from their website each time a new problem with shipping. Damaged product, long delays leaving their facilities, back ordered, etc etc. which is all fine but the nasty customer service, has made me reconsider supporting this company in any way.Bottom line. Order from Amazon. Great product- all of the Dropps stuff. Even the dishwasher packs!

I would give these a five however you need to make sure you run the water before putting in the clothes. Let it dissolve a bit. I did have a couple pieces of clothing have a mark from where it didn't dissolve. I love the idea of less waste and bulky detergent bottles and pods. The smell is lovely they do clean well. I will buy again but I will save them for towels and bedding so I don't ruin any clothing. Love it ju a t wish it would dissolve better.

I started investigating laundry choices that have less plastic waste about a year ago. I found Dropps brand listed as kind to the environment. I ordered the smallest quantity to test it out. This brand gets my clothes cleaner than any other detergent I have ever used in my 45 years of doing laundry. We love it and as soon as I am out of the other cleaners in my house I am switching those too!I bought the glass jars that hold them. I use the stain and odor version of the detergent, the fabric softener and the oxi booster pods. I use the crisp and clean fragrance. The fragrance is very light if anything at all. They do sell unscented products. I use dryer balls with essential oils if I want something to smell good. I also use their dishwashing booster spray. It is excellent in cutting grease! If I have something with a burned on or greasy mess, I spray it and come back after I'm done loading and/or washing and cleaning up the kitchen. I use my soft or hard bristle brush and it is all good. I love these products!

This will eventually start leaving white gummy residue on your clothes and your machine. Worst mistake I made with fabric softener. I barely got my machine clean enough to start using again and it was only a year old. I then started researching what to use. Settled on white vinegar! Keeps my machine clean and my clothes soft! Don't make my mistake!!

Pods work well, used for years. I usually use with a small net bag to avoid occasional residue from the pod not breaking down fully (yes, even following instructions). Would rate higher but the new lavender scent is gross. I’m not generally sensitive to scents but this one gives me an insta headache. Much more floral perfume than the lavender eucalyptus of the old scent. Looks like I’ll have to switch to the unscented but will fondly remember the days when my laundry smelled fresh and clean. Ah well.

Best invention ever to not make any mess just dump softer in the washer at the same time as a soap pod

I love the idea of powdered laundry products -- better for the environment and frequently a better buy for the money. So, I was excited to see fabric softener pods. I tried them at first according to the instructions, with cold water and extra rinse, but the load of towels came out feeling sticky and gross instead of soft. Tried a few more times with worsening results. Ran the towels through with some vinegar to remove built up softener, then again with a pod, and same results. So I pushed these pods to the side as a wasted product. Some days later, I was washing my towels on hot and threw one of these in just to test. Low and behold, what came out was slightly softer than expected and not "sticky and gross". Tried a couple more times and yes, the pods perform better in hot water then cold.BUT they still fall way short of the performance you get from regular fabric softeners like free and gentle Downy. I just really can't recommend this product. It's possible it's the water quality here in Florida, but I'm not going to give these another try.
