Amazon has really won me over by offering Seventh Generation products. It pleases me so much to use these knowing the benefits of recycled paper towels. I have been adding different products to the house and my family has yet to complain. I agree with the reviewer who commented about the excess packaging, but the price is fantastic.Buy Seventh Generation Natural Paper Towel 2-ply 120 count rolls (6 Rolls)!
I've regularly used Dow Scrubbing Bubbles on my shower. While it never bothered me too much, I thought that product had strong fumes and probably wasn't safe for my health. So I switched to Seventh Generation Shower Cleaner.
How shocked was I when the first time I used it I felt burning in my nose and the back of my throat. I spent the next hour coughing. And no, I DIDN'T inhale any of the mist. This product DEFINITELY has fumes and smells awful. That was a week ago.
Hoping it was a fluke (giving the product the benefit of the doubt, I hypothesized that it had released toxic chemicals that had built up in my shower), I tried the product again this evening. SAME result. That was about 45 minutes ago, and I'm still trying to clear the irritation in my nose and throat.
As bad as I THOUGHT Dow Scrubbing Bubbles was, that product NEVER had this effect on my health. Seventh Generation Shower Cleaner is definitely NOT recommended. Buy Seventh Generation Shower Cleaner, Natural Citrus Scent, 32-Ounce Bottles (Pack of 12)!
A perfect dish soap that can be scented according to
your kitchen wishes. Cuts grease and cleans as
effectively as other less natural dish liquids.

I am allergic to scented products and it is difficult to find any products with no scent. This whitens my showers and leaves them looking clean. I spray it on my dry shower, smooth it on evenly with a sponge and let it dry. Its simple and effective. Seventh Generation is the only line of unscented products I've been able to find. I'm thankful for them.Buy Seventh Generation, Shower Cleaner / Sanitizer Natural Citrus Scent 32 Ounces!
I have been using this product for awhile and I think it does a satisfactory job. It cleans the dishes well and leaves no smell in my plastics, including my daughter's plastic plates and cups. I stopped using Cascade when I realized that you could actually taste the chemicals on the plastic. Cascade does do a better job cleaning. It should. It, like every other widely available commercial brand, is a very strong base (alkaline), very caustic. Their phosphates are detrimental to marine life. And now many contain bleach. More dioxins, please! The Seventh Generation version does not clean my silverware as well. If anything is stuck-on before washing it remains there (especially egg or almond butter). My solution to this is pretty easy and obvious. We just keep a bus tub in the sink with a small amount of water. Dirty utensils go there. Dishes get the same treatment if necessary. Sometimes (not often) there is a powdery white residue on the dishes which is easy to remove. Overall, I am pleased with this product and its shortcomings are not enough to make me switch back. I just feel better about using this in my home.Buy Seventh Generation, Free & Clear Auto Dish Powder 75 Ounces!
I've been replacing most of my household cleaning products with 7th generation brands. I have only had good experiences with them and this product is no different.
I've been using the kitchen cleaner now for several months. I've cleaned my worktops, tiles, fridge and chopping board with it. They all look clean as it removes grime and dirt but I was wondering how good the ingredients were at kiiling germs. I googled the chemicals and found that one of ingredients, Hydrogen Peroxide (H2O2)is a powerful environmentally friendly disinfectant and is stronger than chlorine.
The Hydrogen peroxide chemical oxidises micro-organisms and essentially burns them. It breaks down into water and oxygen and poses no environmental threat. Other big name cleaners cause chlorine gas and toxic chemicals to enter the environment.
I think that the 7th gen. company should promote this more on their bottles as I believe the bathroom and all purpose cleaners also contain the same ingredients.
This cleaner has so many advantages.
Environmentally friendly in its production & decomposition. Its ingredients are fully disclosed with no animal ingredients or testing. It smells pleasantly because it has citrus oil to remove grease. No toxic or corrosive chemicals that can damage human health.

This laundry detergent is the best I have found. It lacks the petroleum so often found in other detergents, therefore making the clothes smell better and feel better. You can really feel the difference when comparing the feel of this powder to other powders: the others leave your fingers feeling greasy. I have found that I do not need to use as much of this as with other products, and the price on Amazon is the best I have found yet - especially with the Super Saver Shipping! After finding that my son and I both were developing rashes to other types of laundry products (including so-called allergen-free), I switched to the scent-free version of this product which I learned about while working as a nanny years ago. My son wears cloth diapers and he has not had a rash since switching detergents. We use the citrus scent for our other clothes and have had no problems at all. In fact, I once ran out of the unscented and used the citrus on the diapers with no adverse reactions. I recommend this product and other Seventh Generation line products to everyone.

I love this stuff! It frequently goes on sale at a local natural foods coop. It actually gets out stuff that I thought were permanent stains, and I've even used it successfully on fabrics. Though it is marketed as a glass & surface cleaner, it can be used as a general cleaner. I also use white distilled vinegar per equal parts water along with a baking soda paste for effective, eco-friendly cleaning. But unlike vinegar, there is no accompanying, lingering smell.
I feel a satistfaction bordering on the Stepfordian when cleaning with this product. :-) Buy Seventh Generation, Free & Clear Glass & Surface Cleaner 32 Ounces!
The bags break easily, and I need to use a second bag over the first one every time to ensure it doesn't leak or break.
Besides, I cannot find the ties as described on the package. Buy Seventh Generation, Tall Kitchen Trash Bags 13 gal, 30 count!
I purchased this product in my attempts to be more environmentally conscious, and I am very pleased with it. The Lavender Floral & Mint scent is heavenly! You need to use more soap than you do with conventional dish soaps to get your dishes clean, but the bottle still lasts a very long time. I've been using my current bottle for six months now (I live alone) and I've probably got a good month or so before I'll need to buy a new one.Buy Seventh Generation Liquid Dish Detergent, Natural Lavender Floral & Mint, 25-Ounce Bottles (Pack of 12)!
This is such a great product. I find that it cleans better than a lot of other chemically induced products on the market. It does not smell, and I was amazed that it leaves a streak free (and especially on my stove) grease free shine after just one spray. I won't go back to using anything else....and I LOVE the fact that it is good for our environment too.Buy Seventh Generation, Free & Clear All-Purpose Cleaner 32 Ounces!
