Dirty Labs Reviews

Best of Thingtesting4.7

Dirty Labs earns strong reviews for effective, enzyme-powered cleaning that tackles odors and many stains while remaining nontoxic, hypoallergenic, and packaged in recyclable aluminum. Reviewers praise refined scents like Magnolia/Bergamot/Cedar, Murasaki, and Jasmine/Matcha/Vetiver and the ultra‑concentrated, cold‑water formula, but cite drawbacks: occasional weak scent longevity, messy sticky caps, easily lost silicone beakers, and mixed performance on heavily soiled or dingy whites.

  • I like the sustainable aspect of this brand. It doesn’t clean my clothes better than what I previously used, but I like how the packaging is recyclable, and if you get the bundles, it comes with a dispenser.

  • I’ve been using Dirty Labs for a while now, and it’s honestly one of those products I didn’t realize I’d care this much about until I tried it. The first thing I noticed—and appreciated immediately—was the lack of artificial perfume smell. So many detergents and dish soaps try to mask “clean” with overwhelming fragrance, and Dirty Labs does the opposite. Everything just smells neutral and actually clean, which I especially love for clothes, towels, and baby items. Performance-wise, it genuinely delivers. My laundry comes out fresh and soft, even with tougher loads, and I’ve been impressed with how well it handles everyday stains without needing extra products. The dish detergent is just as solid—cuts through grease easily, rinses clean, and doesn’t leave that weird residue some eco brands do. What really seals it for me, though, is the convenience. The packaging is thoughtful, easy to use, and mess-free. The dosing is straightforward, the products last a long time, and it feels like they’ve actually designed everything for real life—not just aesthetics. I also like knowing I’m using something that’s more environmentally responsible without sacrificing effectiveness. Overall, Dirty Labs strikes a rare balance: minimal scent, excellent cleaning power, and a genuinely convenient experience. It’s one of the few household brands I’ve fully switched to and don’t see myself going back from.

  • I am very happy with this product and now am using it full-time for all my laundry needs. Most importantly, I feel safe and confidant I am utilizing a non-toxic product and the fragrance smells fantastic and is naturally derived.

In their own words

Dirty Labs is a cleaning innovations lab on a mission to make petrochemical-based cleaners obsolete. We founded Dirty Labs to create the change we want to see in the cleaning industry — a sustainable, biobased approach to cleaning that’s rooted in science and aligned with nature. Too many cleaners today still rely on petrochemicals and harsh synthetics that pollute the environment and our drinking water. About 40 billion loads of laundry are done in the United States each year. Most of those loads include hazardous chemicals, including EPA classified carcinogens, that enter into our water supply. By utilizing breakthroughs in green chemistry, our team of chemists and environmentalists are out to prove that sustainable, biobased cleaners can actually work. Our promise is to deliver on par or better cleaning efficacy than conventional cleaners without the use of any sulfates, ethoxylates, parabens, fillers, California Prop 65 chemicals of concern, and EU listed fragrance allergens.
