ecoegg Laundry Egg | Detergent and Fabric Conditioner Replacement | Non bio and no enzymes, phosphates, palm oil, chlorine bleach | Sensitive Skin | Fresh Linen 70 Wash

Product Information

It replaces the need for lots of plastic bottles of detergent and fabric softener; plus, it contains no chemical ingredients. The Egg container is recyclable and suitable for wash after wash.

Simply fill the egg-shaped container with the mineral pellets, and place inside your washing machine on top of the laundry. Then set your washing machine to its usual settings, and off you go. I have a three-year-old toddler and a tree-surgeon husband, so most of my laundry is covered in one type of stain or another. Whether it's cherry juice, jam, chocolate, tree bark or conifer sap, there's usually something hanging around on our clothes. I tested the Fresh Linen version, so maybe when it's time to refill I'll buy the Spring Blossom version. Note: it is recommended that you use the Eco Egg Detox tablets in your machine before you use your egg. Does the Eco Egg get your laundry clean?Simply pop the ecoegg Laundry Egg on top of the laundry in your washing machine for a skin-friendly, planet-friendly and purse-friendly way to get your clothes clean and leave them with a lovely fresh linen fragrance. Variety of Scents: Elevate your laundry experience with a range of delightful scents, from Fresh Linen to Spring Blossom. Your clothes will smell amazing, without the chemically-laden fragrances!

I followed the instructions, detoxed the machine and ran a small load on 60° wash. The clothes came out smelling kind of neutral in the first couple of washes but shortly afterwards came out just smelling like they'd been swished around in some water and nothing else. Smell aside, it's just useless at getting out basic stains - fresh mud on my little ones school trousers - didn't touch it. Grease and a fresh red wine stain - no chance (I get these are notoriously difficult stains but my regular washing powder never really struggled). I tried washing a couple of times but stains just weren't budging. The Egg Holder has two suction pads, one on the side and one on the bottom and can be secured to any surface. No spillages will occur once you plug on the egg cup to a surface – it will be holding onto your egg for dear life. Simply pop your ecoegg Laundry Egg in the cup when not in use so that it dries between washes and you always know where to find it. Easy to Use: Simply pop your Laundry Egg into your washing machine with your laundry, and you’re good to go. No mess, no fuss, just brilliantly clean clothes every time. Eco-Friendly Fabric Softening: Say goodbye to chemically laden dryer sheets. Our patented Dryer Eggs are a natural and sustainable way to soften your laundry while reducing drying time. The Egg Cup Holder is for use in conjunction with your ecoegg Laundry Egg to keep your pellets fresh and dry.

The verdict

I have been pleasantly surprised to find my laundry just as clean after using the Eco Egg compared with my normal routine. There isn't anything exciting to report - it works just as you would hope it would - clean and soft clothing straight out of the washing machine.

Saving you time, energy, and money on your household bills. Our energetic dryer eggs love a boogie – simply pop 2 Dryer Eggs inside your tumble dryer with your laundry to speed up drying time, reduce creasing and to boost the fragrance on your clothes. How do the ecoegg Dryer Eggs work? Vegan-Friendly –As with all our products, our ecoegg Dryer Eggs are suitable for vegans and do not contain any animal derivatives. They are cruelty free and not tested on animals too! The detergent pellets contain a no nasties formula – no enzymes, chlorine bleaches, phosphates, parabens, SLS/SLES or palm oil. Not tested on animals and suitable for vegans. However, I do miss the scent of a fabric softener. My Eco Egg leaves no noticeable scent, and I miss that – I miss the long-lasting whiff of floral tones on my washing as it sits in my wardrobe. I have found myself using a dash of fabric softener alongside the Eco Egg for my delicates and favourite clothing – but that’s a personal preference. Really disappointing as clothes do not come out smelling or looking clean despite following the instructions. Perhaps it's the hard water in my area?
