About Dropps: Dropps is an innovative liquid detergent that makes laundry “laundr-easy”. Its super-concentrated formula fits in tiny,pre-measured “toss-and-go” dissolvable pacs. Once unleashed in your washer, it’s tough on dirt, but easy on your favorite garments.

I received the Dropps sample in an envelope via the mail. Immediately, I knew this was a different laundry detergent. I opened the sample up and behold, a very small plastic pouch that looked like this:

Immediate impressions of the product were:

* I was impressed how little packaging there was. The detergent pouch dissolves right in the washer, so the only waste is the plastic pouch the product is shipped in. This too is biodegradable.

The detergent is phosphate and enzyme free.

I did 4 loads of laundry using this product.

* The Dropps were super convenient. I simply threw them in and put the clothes on top. No measure, no pour, no mess!

* My husband can do the wash now! He fills the cap of the detergent up to the top, totally disregarding the lines for each size load. He could use the Dropps because they don’t require measurements and there is no wasting unnecessary detergent!

* Dropps would be perfect for travel to laundry mat or on vacation.

There were two samples I tried were scent + dye Free and fresh scent.

* Neither scent triggered any of my asthma symptoms.

* The scent free version was truly scent free. The clothes smelled clean, but no scent!

* The fresh scent just smelled clean. No floral, candle shop smell.

The Dropps really surprised me. They actually did a great job cleaning my clothes.

* I did loads on hot and cold, both cleaned equally well. My son had a shirt with dirt all over it (you know the I am a seven year boy and played real hard dirty shirt), that was spotless after the wash.

* The packaging recommended to pretreat the clothing with nasty stains, but I opted to try it without!

I also only used 1 Dropp in each of my loads. I am not sure that you need two. This would be the only disadvantage that I see with this product. You would have to use two if you had a large load and could not adjust the amount of the product.

After drying without any dryer sheets or fabric softener, the clothes were relatively soft. They were definitely softer than if I used my other detergent alone. I would honestly continue to use softener, as I like my towels and sheets like butter! I probably could skip the softener on our clothing.

Overall, this little product packs a big punch in the washer but with little impact on the environment. I am loving Dropps and will most definitely be giving them another shot.

I know all of you want to know where to get a coupon to try these right? Well, you are in luck! Dropps is giving away a 3 months supply of Dropps Detergent to a For the Mommas Reader! ** I am adding that they are HE compatible.  In fact, I have an HE washer.

I love these!! I’ve never seen this packaging – it reminds me of the dishwashing packaging! I would love this because there would be no residue from drips down the detergent bottle – that smear and seem to grow when you try to wipe it up!! This would definitely solve that problem! :)

I would love these because then my husband would be able to do laundry, too!! I have the same issue as you! The fewer steps the better! It would make things easier on me as well. These little things would take up much less space than the big ‘ol jug of laundry detergent I now have!

This stuff sounds cool – i’d love to give it a try! If it’s that easy, maybe my husband can even do the laundry! Thanks.

I like the fact that there is no poring. With a one-year-old in my house, the less mess the better!

Oh, I would love the packaging….I’m so tired of trying to break down those huge Tide boxes, lol!

Blessings,

What I like best about them is the fact that there is a Scent and Dye Free option. (My son and I both have sensitivities to a lot of chemicals used in laundry soap, dish soap, etc.)

This sounds so great! It would make my laundry day so much easier. Awesome product recommendation.

Thank you for such an innovative product! The Dropps would definitely make doing laundry at the laundry mat a lot easier! No more worries about spills on the way to and from the laundry mat. It definitely would take the guess work out of measuring how much to use!

I love this idea. I’ve used the drop in products for my dishwasher and this idea is perfect. No measuring or mess. Great to use with teaching the kids to do the laundry(a very valuable life skill, no to mention a mommy sanity saver).

We like to go camping and this sounds like it would be perfect for us to take on our trips. Not to mention, super easy to use! ;)

I tend to use too much laundry detergent even through the use of a measuring cup. Would love to save money with these drops along with the ease of using the drop. The drops are a great idea!

My husband stays at home with the kids and I know he’d be able to throw a load of wash in lickety-split with these!!

What I think I’d like most about Dropps Laundry Detergent is no more measuring! We have to walk our laundry down to the laundry room at our condo, and the convenience of this product would really be great!

It would be soooo much easier for my toddler to help me do laundry. He loves to be involved in everything, and cleaning up pre-measured packets sounds much easier than liquid or powder!!

I think it would be great to have just one little package to put in and be done with it!
