Muddy Bites
Experience
Only buy if you're prepared to eat the whole bag in one sitting.
Windmill
Experience
We love our Windmill! Needed a new unit so went for this - it really is beautiful and works well. Nice to have the app in case we forget to turn it off before leaving the apt. Feels very elevated compared to any other option.
Who Gives a Crap
Experience
Love WGAC, I've bought the 40+ roll pack of bamboo deluxe and it's great! From the packaging to the sustainability, it's a win. No plastic does it for me.
Feedback
The only thing is it's tough to keep a large stock on hand/buy large quantities at a time for an NYC apartment where storage space is precious!
Blueland
Experience
While I agree with several of the critiques of other viewers, I'm too loyal to quit now short of any major pains. Blueland provided an almost all-in-one kit solution for a more sustainable cleaning routine at the right time for me. I just love and appreciate the brand - maybe their social presence is doing a number on me? Anyway, I feel like the products are effective and now that I have a lot of their Forever Bottles already I'm not going to switch to a competitor. I guess the upfront investment in that goes a long way but even so I haven't had any experiences that made me want to drop the brand entirely. I think they're just going to keep iterating to make and refine products consumers actually want and love.
Feedback
Agree that the dish powder is terrible - I've switched to a plastic-free dish soap bar that I love. Would buy from Blueland if they made something like that. I've also tried the laundry "pods" and switched to just a baking soda powder I can buy in bulk. Another thing I'd probably get from Blueland if they had it. The Oxy booster smells pretty good but it's not a usual part of my routine. I don't love the smell of the all-purpose cleaner but maybe the newer tabs are better. I bought a black soap set specifically for the aesthetic and I like the hand soap smells though they often aren't very strong. Also, I'm glad the black bottles have a smaller logo but the original hand soap bottle logo is a bit much. I definitely agree that the shipping minimum is a challenge because I have a huge backstock of tabs that I bought just to meet it when I needed something else. I had the original Forever Bottles which all cracked and had to be replaced but the updated design seems to be holding up well and customer support was very helpful.
Callahan Knitwear
Experience
I've never bought directly from the brand but I have rented a few of their pieces from Nuuly - they're super cute and comfortable. The price point is reasonable to actually own and the sweater sets are particularly stylish!

Experience
Needs to be quite doctored up to be satisfying - if you're in the mood for packaged ramen just eat the crappy stuff to scratch the itch. These are better used as a base for a saucier noodle or a lot of accouterments which I don't always have on hand when I'm just looking to open a package of ramen for some hot soup. I appreciate what they're going for and I'm all for a healthier alternative but I don't think this quite serves the same purpose.
Feedback
I haven't tried since they reformulated so maybe they're better on their own now! That's just not really my packaged ramen speed, need lower effort-to-satisfaction ratio.
Italic
Experience
Early adopter to Italic - I love the brand and concept. I've purchased things across categories and everything has been great.
Feedback
Things are often out of stock or discontinued so snag them when you can or don't get your heart set on them, you'll never know how long it will take to be back in stock or if it will be at all. Sometimes makes gifting a challenge when you have something in mind from Italic and it isn't readily available when you need it.
Native
Experience
I love that they make entirely plastic-free options! The scents are great, I especially like and wear Lilac and White Tea.
Feedback
Has gotten rather expensive, especially the plastic-free line. Not really a summer deodorant for me, as the natural doesn't hold up all day, but it's fine for lower/less sweaty temps.
Girlfriend Collective
Experience
Very cute and sustainable! I have a sport skirt of theirs in a light green color I love.
Feedback
Tried the Biana top once and wasn't for me, matcha colorway is not quite as it appears online but was a limited drop anyway.
Leaf Shave
Experience
The leaf razor is high quality and heavy which feels better than any plastic option. Took a little getting used to - I definitely hacked my legs up a bit with fresh blades at first but once you know you don't have to use the pressure of plastic razor things get much easier and the shave is much closer. The blades are simple to change out and it's a product I feel good about using. The price is initially high but this thing will last forever vs a lifetime of plastic waste. I've just become very diligent about not leaving it on any trips b/c of the investment! It's the perfect option for people who want to be a bit more sustainable but can't commit to a straight razor, the pivoting head really bridges the gap and makes for a pretty seamless transition. Big fan.
Feedback
My razor is black and the finish has chipped away in places but it's not a huge deal. I guess I covered the helpful info - start with a light touch and take it slow at first!
