Q&A(33)
Q: Is the Free & Clear odorless?
A: It's odorless. The sheets themselves have no odor, and they do not impart any odor to the washed clothes.
submitted byMidwestmama - 1 year agoA: Yes it is.
submitted byEarth Friendly Team - 3 years agoBrand expertA: I agree that the "free and clear" do not leave a scent on our clothes.
submitted byNature Mama - 1 year agoA: I ended up returning them because the free and clear had a scent and they are made on China.

Q: Can this product be used in front load washers? Is it safe for HE machines?
A: I have a HE front load and have been using these for months. No issues for me so far.
submitted byMB - 4 years agoA: Works great in my HE front loading machine. I will admit that once in a while, it does not dissolve completely and part of it sticks to a piece of laundry. No idea if that is because it's HE.
submitted byNature Mama - 1 year agoA: I tear sheets in 1/2 & add to my Detergent tray. The water rushes thru this area as it would liquid detergent. I've only had 1X in the PAST 4-5 years where it didn't get flushed out, so that's good.

Q: i often tend to wash only a few items at a time, can the sheetys be cut in half?
A: we recommend 1 sheet per load, but if half a sheet works for you, then yes.
submitted byEarth Friendly Team - 4 years agoBrand expertA: The sheets are easy to tear (although not "perfectly" in half!). I tear them to put a little extra in a very large or very dirty load - 1 and 1/2 sheets - or just 1/2 for a very small load.
submitted byNature Mama - 1 year agoA: yes!! I've been using them for large and small loads & tear the sheets in half for small loads & use the other half + a whole sheet for a large load of dense, heavy blankets.

Q: can you use these to wash laundry in the sink while traveling ?
A: According to what I have reasearched on these, the answer is yes, but you wouldn't use a whole sheet for hand washing, as these are meant for a whole load of laundry in a washer.
submitted byBrodieis3 - 4 years agoA: Yes, you just have to put half of a sheet in some water to let it dissolve. It takes a minute or two.
submitted byNature Mama - 1 year agoA: Yes of course you can.

Q: Is poly vinyl first ingrediant plastic?
A: No, this material is highly water-soluble, has no potential to bioaccumulate in biota, and does not meet the chemical definition of a microplastic. In other words, the PVA used in our sheets the detergent will never not degrade into microplastics and is not a rigid plastic.
