Thought I was buying free + clear because bottle was similar. Got it home and washed sheets and phew what a strong lavender smell. After handling and changing my bed to these sheets I broke out in a bad rash on my face and neck, ended up at urgent care with a prescription for benedryl. It says plant based but the last statement under ingredients says: contains fragrance allergens!

Although I like most everything about this natural detergent, I've discovered that it's what caused a moldy smell coming from my empty washer... The enzymes may cause the growth of bacteria despite my double rinsing. It got really stinky despite my using affresh to clean it monthly! I finally switched to another non enzymatic detergent and the smell is gone... Too bad I can't recommend this natural cleaner...

The smell after the clothes are washed, is horrible, to me at least! Some things I can just keep using and live with whatever is wrong until I run out, but not this. I'm headed back to Sam's to return it tonight to get something else so I can rewash everything I washed. The detergent smells fine when I open the container and take a sniff, but after the clothes are washed it's so bad. They smell whether they were hung dry or dried in the dryer. To me, it smells like wet dirt or moss, or something just not quite right and definitely not a smell I want to smell on myself all day in my clothes. I know not everyone has the same sense of smell and can smell the same thing in different ways, but I can't believe no one in product testing of this didn't notice this after scent.

Im at my witts end with the sorry changes Sam's are making. Rather than making changes for the best, you are making them for the worst! It's a joke that you tried to pawn this detergent off as the ECO replacement!🙄 At this point, and many others i probley won't even renew my membership. When you start to loose more and more customers, maybe you'll get the point... Anyways, zero stars on this crappy knock off ECO detergent.

Horribly awkward bottle. Pouring requires three hands and a level of juggling that I have not mastered. We loved Ecos. This store brand has something in it that I am allergic to. Looking to purchase Ecos at another store. Very disappointed that it's no longer at Sam's.

I bought this because Sam's Club was out of the ECOS laundry detergent I usually use. It irritates my family's sensitive skin. It is also more expensive, does not clean nearly as well nor does it smell good. I cannot recommend it to others. I also will not purchase it again.

I bought this hoping to use as a replacement for ECOS soap. This is everything but that. It is not hypoallergenic, it has a heavy smell and doesn't clean effectively. Really disappointed in Sam's choice to discontinue carrying ECOS, as this is the only detergent I could use with my sensitive skin family members!

Members Mark is not ECOS! It is an imposter. Sam's makes it hard to read the ingredients on the app. Front of detergent states plant based. I have researched each ingredient and am shocked at all the skin allergens, eye and skin irritants, and aquatic concerns. Then what I call a disclaimer that it is plant and conventional! BUYER BEWARE!! Check it out yourself. So disappointed I feel I can't trust anything.

This is by far the best laundry detergent we've ever found. The scent is not overpowering. It's the only soap I can use on my husbands clothes that won't make him itchy and yet gets the clothes so clean. It also works as a deodorizer. We love this detergent. We won't use any other.

I just can't get past the smell. It's supposed to be lavender, but it's a strong, musky scent that hits the back of the brain and gives me a headache. My husband can't stand it either. There's nothing flowery or fresh about it and it doesn't smell clean. I'm giving it away. Yuck!
