    Blueland dish soap powder

    I really wanted to love this particular Blueland product; ditching plastic is my goal. But cleanliness of my hand-washed dishes is important, too. First, I'm wondering whether anyone else has found themselves coughing after sprinkling this powder to the sponge? The air borne detergent powder feels like it lodges in my lungs - not what I'm looking for when washing dishes - or ever. This concern is topmost for me, which says something, because my secondary concern matters, too: I can't tell whether the soap is actually cleaning: soapsuds don't generally appear. Is my elbow grease simply removing the mess, or have my dishes been well cleaned with this detergent? Any ideas or tips you have, from your experience, are appreciated.

    Blueland makes a big eco-friendly promise, and unfortunately, it falls short of that. The cleaning tablets are fine, acceptable alternatives. However, their cleaning bottles and nozzles, including hand soap nozzles (glass hand soap bottle is fine), are absolute disasters. We have all three cleaners and we have replaced them each twice over, and we're now on our third round and have stopped returning them. Their marketing-esque apology email that was sent to us the first time round said they had improved the bottles and were "confident" the issues were solved. THey also said to remember they were a young company and to go easy. If you're a relatively young and nimble company, you should have nailed it the first time, or own up to it and just stop putting more crap out into the world until you get it right. I absolutely don't recommend these products to anyone, especially after our last (of the round two) bottles came apart and exploded all over me, an expensive coffee table, and the carpet. Two thumbs way down. You have been warned! Classic, perhaps well-intentioned but poorly executed, greenwashing if you ask me.

    I am so glad you mentioned this. Two of my bottles exploded this weekend and the liquid got all over the counter. Both bottles were so cracked, it was crazy! I already have replaced one of the bottles previously and now I have two that have exploded.

    We find the dish detergent powder causes us to cough each and every time we use it. The fine particulates in the air are very irritating to our lungs. It is a great disappointment. I hope Blueland will address and improve this. It has sent us back to using liquid detergent in a plastic bottle.

    I've had similiar issues with the dish soap powder. I cough, sneeze or generally just feel like something is in my throat every time I use it, even if I'm very careful to gentle put it on the wet sponge so it doesn't create a cloud. I would love to keep using this but I can't handle the effects. My husband as asthma and it really bothers him so I won't be buying again. Unfortunately I now have this silicone bottle which i'm not sure what to do with.

    Same at my house. Everyone in the room knows when I dispense the dish powder. I'd settle for a less natural product if they'd like to add a little anti toxic dust cloud chemical.

    Like the others I wanted to love the products but have a similar issue. I had to put a towel around my face when I poured the dish powder into the container. After that I ended up adding water to the container to mitigate the aeration of the particles each time I used it. I complained and was sent a new package which seems much better. Not entirely sold on it’s cleaning effectiveness

    We also wanted to love the product. We ordered the hand soap tablets and refillable bottle. The glass bottle is nice but the pump stopped working on 2nd tablet. They did offer to replace if we would submit pictures or a video of the problem, ad they wanted us to send the broken pumps back. We actually managed to take the pump apart and clean it, run very hot water through it and get it working again temporarily. We're not impressed since the whole point is to be able to reuse the bottle conveniently and save on plastic.

    Hand soap and multi-purpose cleaner

    I enjoy using the products themselves. My issue is with the method of delivery. The first bottle of hand soap was fragrant and effective, But NOw, not only does the soap not foam, but it just dribbles out of the bottle. Not effectove and don't feel clean.

    The multi-purpose sprayer: I am a little neurotic about keeping counters clean, so it's a bit annoying and time consuming that the trigger on the bottle sticks and only slowly returns to position for subsequent pulls.

    So while I can give great reviews of ordering, service, pricing and delivery, I'm not sure I'd order again unless there is improvement on the containers.

    Starter Kit

    I like the cleaning products. Love the dishwasher tablets. I have had problems with leaking bottles, there is a seam around the Top of the bottle and have had issues with all of them doing this, I had a few completely break off at that seam and the bottom 3/4 of the bottle fall to the ground spilling all of the product. I have emailed the company and they were quick to reply with a replacement bottle and they have all eventually leaked or broke. I have gone and bought spray bottles from the store and use those because of the product.

    Starter set, dishwashing and dishwasher cleaner

    I love the cleaners, but the bottles are horrible. We have replaced them 2-3 times and they have broken both times. I now use my own bottles. The dishwasher soap is amazing and doesn’t leave a residue on dishes or washer. I like the dish washing soap, but it seems like the last batch the particle size is smaller and it makes you cough. I added water to the one I got and made a liquid soap. I have another one bag to try if it has the same result I will not order it again.

    foaming hand soap bottle & tablets

    Glass bottle is nice and we wanted to save on plastic by using it along with refill tablets. But the pump on the bottle is plastic and it broke on only the second tablet used. Very sad. They offered a replacement pump but wanted us to send a picture or video of the issue and return the broken pump. We managed to take the old pump apart and clean it, getting it to work temporarily. When the pump breaks again, we will go back to other methods that may be less planet friendly but work more consistently...and at least we won't have useless tablets sitting around.

    Laundry detergent and dishwasher detergent

    They both seemed okay at first, but after awhile we noticed that there was a musty smell coming from the dishwasher, which hadn't been present before. The only reason I bough the Blueland tabs was because our regular dishwasher powder (i.e., Ecover) was out of stock everywhere. Cleaned out the trap in the dishwasher and I have NEVER seen it that dirty before. Disgusting. We also noticed that our clothes didn't seem particularly fresh anymore, and the laundry tablets do NOT dissolve in cold or cool water (which is what we usually use). I had to actually dissolve the tablet in hot water for 10 minutes before starting the washing machine. Maybe the lack of cleaning power had something to do with the fact that we have hard water, but the detergent we were using before (i.e., TruEarth) cleaned our clothes just fine. (TruEarth has PVA, which is basically tiny plastic particles, which kind of defeats the "no plastic" claim they offer.) Blueland is not particularly inexpensive, so we will NOT be purchasing there products again.

    all purpose cleaner

    I ordered the all purpose cleaner and refills. I was satisfied, especially with the environmental aspects of the products. HOWEVER, the plastic spray bottle LEAKED! I have emailed Blueland regarding this, and I have not received any response. They do a great sales job, but if you have a problem or question -- YOU ARE OUT OF LUCK!

    2 Starter Kits, refills and dishwasher soap

    I have used all of the cleaners and gave a starter kit to my son when he purchased his first home. I wanted to like the product so much. I have not been overwhelmed with the window cleaner, the bathroom cleaner and multi purpose are okay. BUT the dishwasher pellets did an arthrosis job. My dishes do not come clean in the dishwasher at all. I have tried several different approaches, just scrapping and not rinsing the dishes all the way to pre washing. The only way they came out of the dishwasher clean is if they went into the dishwasher clean. I will not be ordering the product again and canceling any up coming shipments.
