Reviews mention

  • Plastic-free packaging elegance
  • Light, pleasant fragrance profiles
  • Effective dishwasher tablet cleaning
  • Space-saving refill tins
  • Fragile, finicky pump mechanisms
  • Streak-prone glass cleaner formula
  • Inconsistent laundry tab dissolution
  • Underpowered greasy-mess cleaning

Blueland impresses in reviews for delivering effective, low‑waste cleaning—dishwasher tablets, foaming hand soap, toilet tabs, and laundry routines often perform as well as conventional options with lighter, pleasant scents and compact, plastic‑free refills—so the brand is good for everyday cleaning. However, reviews flag inconsistent cleaning strength for heavy messes (glass cleaner streaks, dish powder and some sprays underperform), dissolving issues with laundry tabs, and widely reported failures of plastic “forever” bottles, pumps, and sprayers.

  • I cannot get enough of Blueland!! I am a total clean freak and find all of Bluelands products to work really amazing. The scents are perfect and not terribly overwhelming. The handsoap is my personal favorite because I love being able to keep one nice bottle and refill whenever I need to, without keeping an extra-large bottle of handsoap I'm refilling from. I have a little holder for the tablets under my sinks and find they last for a long time. If you like to use other forms of water (cue witchy full moon wink) when you're crafting products you use often, this is perfect for getting a little extra energy into the bottle.

  • I will always see Blueland as the pioneer in the just-add-water cleaning product space. Have repurchased their spray tablets several times and recommended them to countless friends.

    I would *not* recommend their powdered dish soap. The grains are too small and you can easily inhale the powder which feels dangerous, to say the least. I contacted customer support about it who was lovely, and they sent a new product, but the same problem persisted.

  • Blueland’s cleaning products are eco-friendly and smell great without being overpowering. The refill system drastically cuts down on plastic. Some tougher stains need extra elbow grease, but it’s worth it for the sustainability factor.

  • Really like how sustainable this company is and want to try everything. I currently have the dishwasher tablets and body wash which I guess they don't have anymore. It's great knowing you are not going to have to throw away tons of plastic anymore. I really hate plastic and am quick to change my shopping habits whenever I can find alternatives. Blueland not only saves our landfills, but the products are great too!

  • Except for hand and facial cleansing (and in addition to dishes, which I use a solid form for as well), I’ve made the switch to bar soap for hair and body. For years, I used a carousel of drying but scented hand soaps from Bath and Body Works, but eventually made the switch to Blueland once I used my supply. I have both a Minnie and Daisy forever bottle, and I was concerned the quality of the Minnie pump to realize it was simply broken when I started using Daisy. I LOVE always being able to try a new scent (old habits) and I wish the scents were a little stronger for my personal taste.

  • Cleaning products that I actually want to have out on my counter, are great for the environment and don't cost an arm and a leg. What's not to like?

    Really like the powdered dish soap, but maybe update the silicon bottle design. It feels like the opening is too large and sometimes it feels like I'm wasting a ton of soap on accident.

  • I use their entire fleet of products - laundry detergent, dishwasher tablets, sprays. Overall, I think it's a 10/10 in terms of sustainability, aesthetic, and effectiveness. I love how easy it is to replenish off of Amazon or their site. IF YOU WERE TO TRY JUST ONE - I would start with the foaming hand soap - the refills take up no space, which is every small apartment owener's dream!

  • I tried these a few different times. I wanted to love them. I love the plastic free part. I didn’t love the price of them and I didn’t feel like they worked well. I tried them a few different times and no luck.

  • When it comes to brands, I love Blueland. I've used various of their products for months and now I was really enticed to try out this Hand Soap Starter Set in lavender. Super easy to use, simply add warm water, drop in the tablet and close the top. Within a few minutes the water changes color and is very easy to use with foam coming out when you press on it. Love the scent and the glass bottle I get to reuse instead of wasting plastic ones. I do wish to see other varieties of scents for the blueland in the future as my boys wash their hands very often and love different scents. Very easy to use for the whole family and looks very modern and classy in the restroom. Couldn't be happier with my purchase! I would recommend this set to my friends and family as I love the way it looks, easy to use and all I need is to replenish the tablet when the soap is out.

    Verified purchase

  • Dishwasher, Laundry, and Laundry Booster. Easy to use, easy to store. The scented booster smells nice. No liquid, no scoops. Some of the tablets broke in the can/refill bags, so there is a bit of product loss, but I just use the remains for a small load.

  • Love the idea, the best products are the toilet cleaner tabs and the hand soaps. The all purpose cleaner is not good, very gritty and hard to use.

  • I'm obsessed with the Body Wash and Facial Cleanser! I'll admit that I'm a bit of a simple gal when it comes to skincare products. These might not be for you if you're looking for the bells and whistles or have special skincare needs. However, clean, simple, light, and hydrating is exactly what I like about them. The cherry on top is how much more sustainable Blueland is compared to other brands.

    Works for Blueland
  • I’ve been looking for ways to be more green and reduce my exposure to microplastics. Super excited I was able to find a non-toxic brand while I am pregnant. Ordered this during July 4th and received it on the 19th. Was really excited to try this product when it arrived. After opening the packaging I realized that the tablets for all of the bottles were missing. Customer service also takes up to 5 days to answer! Bummer I had to wait soo long to receive the product but the QC checks weren’t in place so I cant start using them.

  • Love that this company practicing sustainability. There is too much plastic waste. It's in our food and littering up the beaches, trash dumps and people think nothing of throwing plastic waste on the ground. Blueland's products are of high quality. I use all their products and they give nice tins to store products that can be used time and again. I highly recommend this company and their products.

  • I was so tired of having huge jugs of laundry detergent in my small space and was looking for an alternative when I found Blueland. The laundry tablets and laundry booster work great and take up a fraction of the space of other laundry products. I also tried the hand soap and absolutely love it. Not only does Blueland have great products but I feel great about supporting a small company that shares my passion for sustainability!

  • Blueland's sustainable mission and beautiful packaging is what drew me to their brand. I was gifted the starter set when I first moved into a new apartment and have since tried a number of their products: - I love their spray cleaners but the bottle spouts have crapped out on 2/3 cleaners. Their new spouts are also almost always sold out so I've given up on keeping the cleaners in their actual bottles. I still order the refills but use different bottles as the ones they come in are a miss for me. - I passed on the powder dish soap because I'm happy with our current brand which is SLS-free, which is entirely just a personal preference. - For their dishwasher tablets, they do a great job of keeping our dishes clean. I like that a few extras are always included in the bag to account for any that may have broken during the shipping process. These tablets are a keeper in our routine. - I tried their hand soap refills but stopped ordering those. The scents just weren't for me and didn't hold up to the brand we were using. - I like the Oxi Laundry Booster but think the packaging can use improvement. The top has popped off in my laundry bag multiple times, and the measuring system of pouring the powder into the lid leaves a bit of a mess. - The new Peppermint Eucalyptus scent that was introduced the toilet bowl cleaning tabs is quite nice and the tabs work well. They don't hold up as long compared to the harsher chemicals (ie. scrubbing bubbles) and require a bit more upkeep but I personally don't mind. Overall, I'm happy to support a brand that has sustainability at the forefront and am especially thankful for their refill system as a way to get around some of their packaging which I think can use improvement.

  • Like: Handsoap and Oxi-Booster. Mixed Results: Window cleaner and general purpose cleaner, Concerns about: Pumps for bottles. I really like the hand soaps and have used them exclusively for about 4 years now. Great scents, good mission, nice cleaning power, easy to use. The bottles work well for about a year, but the pumps do break after about a year of use. They used to replace them for free, but now charge for them. I do like the bottles and branding - simple, clean, modern. The Laundry booster scents are also nice and work well. The window cleaner can leave streaks and the general purpose cleaner can leave a residue on my countertops. Gentle scents across the board are nice. Love the mission.

  • My decision to use Blue Land products was motivated by my sensitive skin, which necessitates avoiding fragrances and chemicals. Moreover, I am dedicated to choosing environmentally friendly products that contribute to a sustainable future for our planet and my family. I rely exclusively on fragrance-free laundry detergent, which has consistently produced clean, fresh laundry. As a preschool teacher, I require a dependable laundry detergent, and this product has consistently met my needs. For the same reasons I also use the fragrance free dish dishwashing detergent my dishes come out, clean and spot free! I love knowing that there’s no plastic in it and it’s just a pure cleaning with no chemicals or plastic! The other product from blue land is the toilet bowl cleaner. I do use the one with fragrances because they are not strong and overpowering like some cleaners can be! They’re great for a quick clean!

  • First off I love the name, Blueland ... I bought the laundry detergent , at first upon opening, the scent is strong. But after a wash it has a pleasant hint of a crisp scent . So it evens out the difference. And I love the fact it is plant based . So far only been using about a month, trying to see how it does for taco dribble and such. Like I said in another reveiw especially if you are visiting or live by a body of water , Don't want to see whales blowing bubbles. Household loves the scent , spring bloom ? And trying the auto ship, hate running out of laundry soap . You get a cute tin for the tablets too ! - 1 tablet per load.

  • I really like Blueland products overall. The product that I tested was a handsoap pump. It works fairly well so far. I like the look, color and foaming action. Every once in a while this pump sputters and gets clogged but resumes working well after a few extra pumps. This has me concerned about longevity. I feel like the design could use some tweaks in function. I like the company's 100 day return policy for this product and their inhouse recycling program. Their commitment to sustainability is a reason to try their products.
