JKS Once NaturOli Soap Nuts/Soap Berries - 4 oz (60 Loads) USDA Organic + 18X Bonus! (12 Loads) Select.

I've used soap nuts/berries for years and am very pleased with this particular product/brand. I absolutely love the fact that these soap nuts are deseeded yet remained in 1 piece as they were dried before shipping. This almost ensures the soap nuts remain in the provided bag during the wash cycle. There is a cotton bag included to hold the soap nuts in during the laundry cycle, just tie and toss in your wash, use at least 5 times before needing to change, depending on your water hardness, no other additives necessary. Usually bought them at my local health store though as of late haven't been pleased with the fact that the ones I've purchased are broken in numerous pieces that despite being tied in the cloth bag end up in amongst the items washed. Pleased with this product.

And what I have learned so far is that I love these things. Still trying to decide if this is the most budget friendly option for us but I'm thinking it will be. So far I have used them to:Do laundry:Nuts in bags worked great and I was able to get about 8 loads out of each bag but it got really annoying have to hunt that little bag down in the wet laundry every time I changed out a load so I could do another right away.Liquid works great I just use a 1/8 cup measure and put it in the soap dispenser. Clothes are just as clean as they were with the nuts and for me at least this is a lot more convenient. I also added about 20 drops of lavender EO to the 32 oz. of liquid I set aside to use for laundry and am happy to say the clothes have a nice soft lavender scent when they come out of the washer. In the dryer I use wool dryer balls and add a few drops to each ball about every fifth load and the clothes have that same nice soft scent when they come out of the dryer.To do dishes in the dishwasherI put 6 nuts in the bag and dropped it in the silverware holder and let it go. It did great, everything came out clean and I am not a rinse them in the sink before loading type of person. Just scrape, load and start. My only complaint about doing it this way is that this has the soap getting on your dishes again during the rinse cycle so when I rinsed them in the sink after the load was down I could tell the difference when the last of the soap was actually rinsed away.I just loaded the liquid in the soap tray and closed it and ran my normal cycle. Even though the liquid is, well the consistency of water, everything stayed where it was supposed to until it needed to come out. The dishes I think actually got a little cleaner this way, since the rinse cycle was actually able to rinse the dishes instead of depositing more soap on them.Stove and Oven cleanerI used the liquid and cleaned my stove top and oven and it did a great job getting all the baked on gunk off. For this I did have to use an actual scrubber instead of just my microfiber cloths but it still worked better than anything else I have tried with the exception of easy off and I hate using it because of the fumes and even with it I still have stuck on stuff that has to be scrubbed/scrapped off so I have now found my new oven cleaner. On the stove top and glass front of the oven it did great. I'd say as well as 409 when I used to use it. Broke down and cleaned away all the grease and grime from making dinner. Left the glass door nice and clear, so all in all I'm pleased.Counters sinks and bathtubs.My kitchen sink is a very old cast iron sink and as such it can sometimes get kind of smelly even with daily cleaning. Normally I use a vinegar wash to clear it up but haven't had a need to since I started using the soapnut liquid to clean it. So that is another plus. My bathroom sink is basic porcelain and it also does great at getting it clean and keeping it odor free. It works well on my counter tops as well I just have to remember to give them a final wipe down with water or they get just the tiniest bit tacky after a few times of the cleaner drying on them. As for the bath tub what can I say. It's clean as are the walls and the faucets. No signs of mold growth or that mildew is setting in so for now I'll stick with this and let you know after I've been using it for awhile if I start to notice an issue with either of those things.ToiletsWe have 1 and there 9 people who use it daily, 5 of whom are male. Normally I clean it with a vinegar/tea tree/lavender/ lemon EO mix which works great. This works at least as well and I personally am not a fan of the smell of vinegar so to me this is actually better since the EO's cover the vinegary scent of this a lot easier and it also fades a lot faster.Mirrors and windowI have been using it to clean the mirror in the bathroom and it works at least as well as vinegar or micro fiber. Cant say how it does on windows yet since it's winter right now and I don't care if they are clean or not right now.Body wash and ShampooI put the liquid in a foaming hand soap dispenser and we have been using it as a body wash and shampoo for our daughter and youngest son who both have sever eczema and skin allergies and it is working great. My daughters skin is so sensitive even Dr.Bonners breaks her out and this hasn't.We have two kids with skin allergies and for us that means no dyes no perfumes and as few chemicals as humanly possible. No one has had a reaction to this and the fact that it works is all I need to keep using them. If you find yourself needing or just wanting a natural alternative I'd suggest these soap nuts. They do a great job at cleaning everything from you house to your kids and everything in between.

This is my first time using these soap nuts and I'm really impressed! My laundry was clean, soft, and smelled nice. I didn't use any softener and my clothes were still soft but you'll still get static cling 😉 overall though, 10/10! I useda very small amount of the concentrate in the shower and both my hair and skin were so clean and soft but not overly dry. I'll be ordering this regularly and plan to try using it to shampoo my dog's and mop my wood floors next and am confident both will be better for it.

So i am venturing into the world of no chemicals, and wanted shampoo for my hair that has none. After some research into brands and then some videos on youtube found this product used by several people. So i was like why not. First off, easy process of making it, as all you do is boil then steep for like 20min on low, and you can reuse the nuts again seversl times, so becomes very economical as well. I use it as a shampoo regular double wash of the scalp, and some more on hair if i do oiling. It works great, my scalp and hair feel clean and soft. I dont even use conditioner anymore. And after wash i dont get as much frizz either, which is crazy to me now cause that is all i have been having after any shampoo and style. Love love love it. Never going back. And will keep buying this product.

I love using soap nuts to wash laundry instead of chemical laden detergents. Did you know that companies that create laundry detergent are not regulated to disclose what's in the laundry sauce?These soap nuts make my clothes and towels soft like I used a fabric softener. It is a fresh, chemical free and natural way to wash laundry.Just don't wash whites with these soap nuts.Also, I learned the hard way to always use a pouch for my soap nuts and make sure the pouch is tied tight. Otherwise I end up with a clogged washer.When I place about six to eight soap nuts in a muslin bag, I can get 10 to 12 washes. After I use them for laundry I crush up the used soap nuts and put them in a jar. I use that to wash my dog and his coat is soft and shiny and skin has improved.I highly recommend soap nuts for washing laundry if you have environmental allergies. I gave four stars because the cost become a lot more expensive!
