I hate all the plastic that laundry detergent uses - those huge heavy bottles, the pods (even the “eco” ones leach microplastics into water), the eco sheets that aren’t really eco. And while I line the smell of fresh laundry, I don’t care for the toxins that come with fragrance. The Dirty Labs comes in an aluminum bottle (yay!) and the Marsaki has an incredible scent -truly. Now if they could just reduce the price- it’s concentrated so a little goes a long way, but I still seems to finish it pretty quickly.

I love the concept of this brand (recyclable container, ecofriendly) and the smell is faint and delightful for the scented version...but it just didn't do the stain fighting trick that my other (less eco) detergents did for larger or dirtier loads (even when I pretreated).

Thanks for taking the time to leave a review, Ayanna! Our detergent is very capable of taking out even the toughest stains but some take a little more attention and care than others. The first thing we usually recommend is increasing the dose of detergent being used in the wash. That may work on its own but another helpful suggestion is to increase the amount of time that the detergent has to work and/or decreasing the load size. If your washing machine has a pretreat setting, I would recommend using the larger dose and splitting it 1/3 to 2/3 prewash to wash. If you can wash in warm water, even better as the warmer temperature does promote activity in our enzymes. Our booster can also help both directly by attacking stains and indirectly by raising the PH of the laundry water which also excites the enzymes and gets them working harder. Lastly, you might consider using our detergent as a direct spot treatment and see how that works.

Love the small concentrated bottle and ingredients
I think the detergent cleaned my clothes really well! It’s a powerful concentrated formula, for sure. However I didn’t love the scent– a bit too floral for me. Cedar and bergamot alone without the magnolia would’ve been perfect!

Can't entirely discern the difference from an overall clean laundry perspective. That being said I guess it is good that it is nontoxic.

I’ve been loving dirty labs! It doesn’t leave marks on my clothes like some other natural cleaners I’ve tried and I love the clean, natural ingredients.

I love this brand's products. Initially I tried them out to refresh my son's cloth diapers & it worked beautifully! Now it has replaced our prior detergent entirely & we use it for everything. I love the green scent the most but we also use unscented for certain things. The dishwashing powder is excellent also & smells amazing!

Absolutely the best laundry detergent I’ve used. Scents are amazing and no issues for sensitive skin.

Started using this when my partner suggested. Seems to be a nice lil boost to our laundry. Love the packaging! Wish it didn't come with a spoon every time bc it feels a little wasteful, but it's not plastic, so I guess that helps.

The small amount required for a full load of laundry worked great, and smelled fantastic! The laundry felt & smelled clean and fresh. I love the non- plastic recyclable container.

Thanks for taking the time to leave a review, Eleanor! One thing that helps keep the bottle from getting sticky is pouring the detergent slowly and then twisting the bottle at the end of the pour. Then you put the silicone beaker (detergent and all) into the washing machine drum or the detergent tray. That way all of the detergent gets used and your beaker comes out clean. We also now offer a glass dispenser with a pump!

Cleans well, smells nice but subtle, no large plastic container, no harmful ingredients.

I got the laundry starter kit and the detergent makes my clothes smell phenomenal and feel so much better. I also got the kit in March and haven’t even made a dent in my stash of detergent.

Dirty Labs has totally upped my laundry game - their detergents smell absolutely incredible. Seriously, once you try them, everything else just feels meh in comparison. What's really cool is how little you need to use - a tiny amount goes such a long way, so a bottle lasts forever. Pro tip: snag their free pump dispenser from their website. It's a game-changer for getting the perfect amount every time.

I absolutely love the Dirty labs free detergent and the booster. I use the free on my LO things and the booster for my husband's work clothes. I was skeptical but it proved to work after the first wash I used them. I get it off Grove and never run out!

We've been looking to move away from detergent pods after several incidents of the pods leaving a colorful mess on garments because they don't dissolve completely in a wash cycle. We also were conscious of how pods can impact water supplies, and also wanted to support innovation in detergents that are gentler on our skin and significantly better for the environment. I'm happy to say that after trying this at a friend's home and buying our own shipments, we are a repeat customer for not only the detergent, but also the booster and dishwasher powder. The customer service is also extremely responsive, kind, and helpful. Really hoping they get to scale into being offered in even more places like Costco!

I love the laundry detergents. Our clothes are clean and smell fresh. I’ve tried other eco friendly brands and they didn’t help with my husbands smelly uniforms. The laundry booster is also great. I’ve just started using the dishwasher soap and it seems to be great. My latest order seems to have been delayed but that happens often in my area. If I could change anything, I would love to be able to refill my products here so that I could reuse the packaging. If you decide to do this, please make it work on all the islands in Hawaii.

I buy a lot of vintage for my business and I always wash them before I put them in the shop. I have tried all kinds of detergent before but Dirty Labs are simply the best. The stains come out really easily and scent is amazing too

I have found this brand to be excellent. The aluminum packaging is easy to recycle and the product smells great.
