Works fine if you use 2 sheets as standard, not for tough jobs
One sheet is enough for smallish/cleaning loads, otherwise I have found I need two. I'm not sure if physical debris (like bits of fluff or something) comes off as well as with the laundry capsules I used to use. Physical dirt comes out. Laundry smells fresh and the fresh smell continues, provided you use enough sheets. One time I had a fresh smelling load with loads of scent and I used only one sheet- that load was a smallish load of cleanish things like PJs and pillow cases. Otherwise I've found things smell a bit unfresh either immediately or after hanging out to dry unless using two sheets. I think this is what others have referred to as the fragrance going away. Again, I've found the fragrance sticks to a reasonable extent if using enough sheets ie usually 2.We do a lot of DIY in our household and we have a puppy and we do our cleaning with reusable cloths etc, so we need our laundry detergent to perform well. We rarely have loads like that smallish cleanish one I described earlier, so value for money for me goes down a lot for this product. Other households may find they can do about half of their loads with one sheet.These days, if I have some non-clothing dirty stuff to wash like cleaning cloths or puppy bedding, I just chuck it in the wash as a quarter or half load and use fairy liquid instead of detergent and the 20 minute speed wash. It seemed like a waste of a capsule before, and now it seems like I'm not 100% sure the items will get clean with these laundry sheets. Either way I haven't changed this habit with the switch of laundry detergent to these sheets.If I had really dirty clothes to wash (like if my husband was rolling around in the muck with our puppy) I would probably also do that short fairy liquid cycle on those clothes but use it as a prewash before adding them into a regular load with other clothes and a couple of detergent sheets. (I'm not sure that it is good for skin to wear those clothes washed in washing up liquid, but it is a cheap and effective clean!)I put these laundry sheets in an old biscuit tin. The sheets come as pairs with perforation to rip into individual sheets. I ripped them all up into each sheet when I put them into the tin. Tin keeps them dry and fresh and easy to access, although I needent have ripped them up into individual sheets because now I always use two sheets per wash.Edit: reduced from 4 to 3 stars as I'm now convinced that stuff doesn't come off the items being washed so well as it does with the detergent I used to use. I feel like these laundry sheets do cleanse the clothes but but don't do such a good job of making them seem really scrubbed. Will be fine for many people (using 2 sheets) but I need a heavy duty laundry detergent in my household. I was finding myself overthinking what to put in wash loads together and when. I have gone back to persil laundry detergent pods, which are really heavy duty and include stain remover which is ideal for food spills and my reusable make up remover pads. These sheets (using 2) perform more like cheap laundry detergent liquid, which is fine if that's all you need.

Easy to use.
I will continue to use these as they are a much better choice for the environment. However, they do not leave any scent on your clothing. So i use more fabric conditioner to make up for that. They are very easy to use, just break one sheet in half, one half at the bottom of the washing load, and the other at the top, done

Revolutionary laundry detergent sheets
As Steve Jobs said 'once in a while a product comes along which changes everything'...these are that. Eco, effective, space saving, subtle essential oils smell, perfect. Best of the new detergent sheet format, have tried some others, not as effective and standard of box on Lab Co way better.

great value, great mild, clean smell, no plastic
I think these washing sheets are great. The smell is quite strong if you use a whole sheet for a small wash so I mainly use half a sheet at a time which makes this pack excellent value for money when compared with similar products. Cleans clothes well. We all have quite sensitive skin, eczema prone etc but have had no problems.

Nice scent!
I was not sure if I will like this product since I am quite sensitive to scents. I wanted something that doesn’t leave strong scent after clothes are washed.I am happy with it. It does smell strong when handling it to add it in the washing machine but it leaves a light scent after clothes are washed and I use one sheet per wash. Since I am quite sensitive to scents, I use the “extra rinse” option on my washing machine and obviously I do not use softener. Instead I use 2 spoons of vinagre for softness.

Great for Price
I usually have problems with scented products but with these I didn't have any issues at all and I think they're good for cleaning your clothes as well. Compared to regular laundry detergent it feels less invasive and a lot cheaper for the price.

These smell nice and fresh. They are easy to use and the box is sturdy and keeps the sheets safe.

Cheapest but does not smell good
I'd been using Eco Laundry sheets from The Green Company and thought I'd try The Lab Co. because they're a bit cheaper. I don't have any complaints other than the smell - it's not that they smell neutral, but they leave the clothes smelling rather unpleasant, so much so that I ended up buying some conditioner to put in with them! And we never use conditioner normally. So I'm going back to The Green Company, which I recommend if you end up feeling the same as we did about the smell.
