Overall Experience: Meliora Laundry Powder Detergent is a fantastic choice for anyone seeking a natural, unscented laundry solution. Its effectiveness and value have made it a staple in my household.

So far Im liking this product. Washed 3 loads of laundry. Has a nice scent although after going through the dryer it loses its scent. That’s not a big deal for me. I don’t use softener as it basically leaves a slick of something on the clothing fabric-yuck! However I noticed clothing, sheets, towels all felt softer! I think it’s because this detergent has minimal, clean ingredients. Cleaned everything well. One thing- wish the price was a little lower. I’m doing laundry for 2 so I won’t run through it quickly.👍

Works well and smells good!

Plastic free laundry! I do like how this one cleans! Seems much better than many of the other plastic free detergents. Nice light fragrance. Was good on whites, really dirty stuff, etc. I did add vinegar as fabric softener as suggested on the container. I removed a star because it was kind of expensive.

Bought this when the German Persil detergent we've used for years wouldn't ship fast enough for us when we were out. (See below.) We've only done a few loads of laundry with this detergent. So far, it seems impressive indeed. We have used the one tablespoon recommended for normal loads; if we felt we had a dirtier load, or a larger load, we'd use two. The detergent works well in our city water. Clothes appear to come out softer without the used of any fabric softeners. Colors appear bright without the use of the additional whiteners. Previously, our standard was German Persil (NOT! the US version), either in powder or "megapearls." We had grown accustomed to using it before our HE washer expired, and a neighbor gave us a top-loader for free (hard to beat that). We never used huge quantities of Persil for washing, and appreciated its economy. Meliora seems to work every bit as well, if not better than German Persil. The only downsides I see is that the scent does not last through the rinse cycle well, and it's too easy to grab the top of the can, risking the lid coming off. Other than those two minor issues, I'd say it's worth a try. Made in the USA as well, in Chicago.

Never going back to liquid. These take up such a small amount of counter space compared to liquid. Pleasant, mild scent. I work in construction and this does just as good of a job cleaning my clothes as big name liquids and gels. Only downsides are that it can cake up in the container, but it's relatively easy to give it a few hard smacks to loosen things up again; and that the container can be difficult to break down before putting it in the recycling bin. You'll end up with a large collection of the scoops, and they are difficult to find and remove when full. Probably going to turn my stack of them into a wind chime.

I love how simple and clean the ingredients are. Most brands say they are chemical free, but still add synthetic ingredients.. not true of Meliora. You can't beat this price because most natural detergents are so unreasonably expensive. This is perfect for families looking to switch to a clean detergent but not break the bank. I highly recommend.

Does it say hypoallergenic? No, it does not. Fragrance free and dye free sounds like it should be hypoallergenic, but it doesn’t mean that. I’m experiencing a huge breakout at the moment. That’s my fault; I should have been more diligent in seeing where it didn’t say sensitive skin or hypoallergenic. If I were grading it based on that, it would be one star. As I mentioned, though, I didn’t properly vet it. So I’m grading based on it’s own merits. Consider the above a PSA. It does a decent job cleaning adult clothes, but doesn’t get those tough stains the way the big brands do. I might not look further than “hey, this load is clean, but we have kids, and they’re not gentle with their clothes. Looks like we’re going to have to rewash those. Do you know how many clothes we need to wash on a regular basis? I don’t need to rewash stuff. I really don’t need to rewash stuff. I get my quota without that.

Good ingredients. Can't find anything particularly harmful for someone with eczema. Just wish the price was a little bit lower.

I purchased this to stash in my motorhome as part of our emergency supplies ... We live in a wildfire zone and, with all our animals, if we were evacuated, we would likely just camp with the motorhome until we could return home. Recently, we've seen people evacuated for months at a time and our emergency supplies list grew. I needed a detergent that we would be able to use in buckets and that could safely be poured out onto the ground without being an environmental issue. Upon lots and lots of reading, I arrived at two brands that fit the bill, only one of which shipped to Canada. So, the reason for the longs story is to let you know that this brand has everything I wanted and was looking for, but I can't really attest to its function as it will remain sealed until we need it. The only reason for the docked star is because it is ludicrously expensive. The other brand (that doesn't ship to us) was somewhere around $20 for roughly the same amount. If I needed this for day to day use, I would never spend this much money on it.
