Puracy Laundry Detergent Refill

This worked very well for us (old top loading washer). I didn't put it through any scientific tests or need to deal with serious stains. It's easy to use, just pump once or twice, and it's fragrance-free (I think they sell scented versions as well). I like how committed to science and reality Puracy is, particularly how they stood up to the EWG and their binary neurotic approach to ingredients as mundane as borax, which is completely safe as a <1% ingredient in a laundry detergent. As long as you don't add Puracy to your cereal every morning for the rest of your life, you're good (and probably even if you do...) Seeing actual surfactants in Puracy's ingredients won me over compared to Molly's Laundry Powder, which has none. Molly's only has washing soda, baking soda, Epsom salt, and table salt. I don't know what dark magic Molly's has unlocked there, and it seemed fine when I tried it, but I had no stains to test it on, and I just couldn't get around the lack of surfactants/detergents, the potential long-term accrual of grease/skin oil on clothes due to Molly's not removing it, and any future stain drama where real detergent is needed. I also like that Puracy has enzymes, including lipase, which is less common. (Though I'm confused by stuff Puracy has said about the enzymes needing 15+ minutes to kick in – do they get that amount of time in a typical washing machine's wash cycle, before the rinsing starts? Seems like it's over by then, or almost.) My only complaint is that the pump bottle design wastes some of the product, since it will leave some on the bottom, un-pumpable. I like to flip bottles near their end-of-life to get all the product out. It's not a huge thing, and I guess it's less of a problem if you buy refill jugs and keep refilling – I assume they sell refills.

This is a great laundry detergent. It cleans very well, leaves no residue, doesn’t have any build-up in my washer dispenser. It has a nice subtle smell also. I bought it over a a month ago and, following the directions, I be only used 2 pumps per load and I’m still not out. So, the recommended 2 pumps is very accurate. I got it for a very good price initially but I think it’s gone up a little. I’m waiting and watching the price so I can purchase it again. I love it!

I am *obsessed* with this detergent. 1) The smell??? Oh em gee. Intoxicating. It’s the epitome of fresh linen. No other detergent compares. 2) It’s non-toxic! Healthy for my family. I’ve noticed a decrease in allergies, illness, & skin issues since switching to this brand. 3) It cleans so well! Excellent at doing its job. I will note that I noticed an increase in product effectiveness when paired with a laundry booster. I use the Active brand enzyme laundry booster + borax + baking soda (all non toxic boosters to help your detergent work better), and WOW! An amazing quartet of products. Highly recommend!!!

My child and husband have sensitive skin so I try to buy detergents that aren't loaded with too many chemicals or fragrances. This is the second bottle I've purchased. It seems to clean pretty well in our Bosch front loader. Our clothes came out clean and did not smell of any fragrances. The only stain it could not remove were my toddler's poop stained onesies that were prewashed by hand. The only other thing I did not like was the pump dispenser. It worked for the first few pumps but stopped working. I had an empty California Baby Body Wash pump dispenser so I transferred the liquid detergent to that bottle and threw out the Puracy bottle. I haven't used the second bottle yet but I'm hoping the first bottle was just a random defect. I've been reading that some of the Free & Clear detergents from the big brands still contain a lot of harmful chemicals. Overall, I like this detergent because it doesn't seem to irritate my husband and child's skin and cleans well. UPDATE (4/4/16): The company contacted me about the pump dispense and promptly sent me a new pump which was greatly appreciated. With the second bottle, the pump seemed fine except I constantly found detergent all over top of the dryer where I keep the bottle. I chalked it up to other members of my household possible knocking over the bottle but it did seem odd. I recently bought a 3rd bottle and low and behold, I find the bottle sitting in a small puddle of liquid detergent again after only a week. I thought either it's dripping from the pump nozzle or from the bottom of the bottle. This time, I was pretty certain no one had knocked it over as it's only been a week since I used the detergent and I've been keeping an eye to make sure it hasn't been knocked over or moved. It's kept high out of reach of little ones. I wrapped the bottom of the bottle with saran wrap. After a couple of hours, I picked up the bottle and noticed detergent coming up from the top of the saran wrap which indictated to me that it must be a slow leak coming from the bottom of the bottle. At this point, I need to find an empty bottle to transfer the laundry detergent to because I can't keep dealing with small puddles of liquid detergent. After I'm done with this bottle, I am going to consider trying something else. I like the product but I've had too many issues with the packaging.

I’m impressed! This bottle lasted 6 weeks and 2 days in a household of 4 with lots of laundry! Our front loader washer did not suds up when using this. It rinsed out well. Clean, but not overbearing smell. SO much easier than lifting heavy jug, just pump and go. This would be great for people who can’t lift heavy items or can’t twist the top off of traditional liquid detergent jugs. Cleaned well, lasted longer than anticipated. Easy to use.

It works better on stains than anything else and it absolutely gets your clothes cleaned without leaving a residue or heavy fragrance. I absolutely love it.

Absolutely floored by how well only one - two pumps of this detergent works! No residue. High quality. Price is appropriate for the amount of clean you get! Not the best bottle or pump but I think the issue is honestly more the shipping from Amazon. Items like this almost always show up in a bag not a box and the pumps get cracked to easily.

I have ordered Puracy products a few times now. The formulas all perform pretty well, but I fell in love with one in particular, and that is the laundry soap. The cleaning power of this product, in my opinion, is unmatched. I especially love the soap in Fresh Linen. It doesn't smell like the old version, but that doesn't mean I don't still love it. The scent isn't overpowering, and actually very nice. It cleans exceptionally well without having to use as much as my old product. One bottle lasts quite a long time, even while doing laundry every day, and even when I use more than the recommended amount. I am absolutely sold on this laundry detergent. However, I've ordered it a few times, and every time but one, the package, along with my other items, have been sent back and I've had to receive a refund from Amazon for all products ordered, due to the bottle leaking all over everything else. It's pretty frustrating, and just happened again last week. I order a few products monthly or bi-monthly from Amazon, and it's kind of irritating when everything gets sent back. This last time I just skipped ordering the laundry soap at all with my refund because I didn't want to lose out on my other items again. I'm not sure that as much as I love this product, I can continue to purchase it. Which makes me sad, because it's such a great product, once you happen to get it on time, and without damage to your other items.
