It’s suitable for everyday use and handles large loads well, thanks to its concentrated formula.

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.👍

Before I get to the rest of my review, I want to put this here for anyone who might have the same issue. My front loading washer smells. Ive done everything I should and when I switched to Meliora, I have noticed SUCH a reduction in smell. My thought was perhaps, just as the overuse of regular laundry detergent can feed bacteria in clothing, maybe it's the cause in the washer too. This has ingredients that both neutralize and clean and some of them are things you might actually use to clean those gunked up components of a washer. Moving on, I picked Meliora because it was one of the very few truly zero waste detergents. Many are powder and natural, but in bags or pods. Which still contribute to plastic. And I've love my experience so far. It smells great and seems as clean as any other detergent. The lovely smell doesn't seem to stay after being dried so I do wish they had a version of laundry "softener" or dryer sheets, but I've ordered some from another zero waste company to help on that side. It feels really great to be able to make a more environmentally friendly choice and have an awesome product too. *ps in relation to the washer, the smell actually comes from when the water drains into the standpipe in my case. So if you can't figure out why you've cleaned your drum and door gasket and it still smells, this could be a culprit

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 can not say enough good things about this product! We switched from the orange bottle brand and have been very happy. Economical. Light scent. Cleans well. Love the environmentally friendly packaging. Definitely recommend/

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.
