Pros:
- Fairly cheap.
- Environmentally friendly
Cons:
- Poor quality. I have gone through at least 50 rolls of these things and never once pulled a sheet off the roll without ripping it (unless I hold the perforation with one hand while ripping carefully with the other). These are not strong paper towels at all. For the price, I'm okay with that and will continue to purchase them, but make sure you're aware before ordering.Buy Seventh Generation Paper Towels, White, 2-Ply Sheets, 3-Count Packages (Pack of 10)!
Im giving it a 3 star because being that is earth friendly its not bad, I just feel its doesnt clean well and the powder clumps together Buy Seventh Generation Natural Laundry Detergent, Free & Clear, Powder, 112-Ounce Boxes (Pack of 4)!
Hi, we used this powder several times and it doesn't dissolve in our washer, no matter what cycle mode we pick. Leaves a hard-to-remove white residue on glass, plastic, etc.. Buy Seventh Generation Automatic Dishwasher Powder, Free & Clear, 75-Ounces Boxes, Case Pack, (Pack of 8)!
These are some of the most natural wipes around. Pleasant, non-perfumy scent. No parabens- especially a concern when cleansing our daughter. Buy Seventh Generation Baby Wipes, Chlorine Free and Unscented, 80-Count Packages (Pack of 12) (960 Wipes)!
Unfortunately, the Seventh Generation Automatic Dishwasher gel needs to be reformulated and re-released. It's the only product from the company that I don't like and won't buy again until it's "fixed".
When it comes to environmental friendliness, this company is at the top. I have most of their other products and have been crazy happy about them, but not this one.
Like many reviewers have mentioned, you almost need to wash your dishes first before putting them in the machine with this gel. My dishes come out feeling greasy, still having spots on them, and often still having basic food items stuck that would have normally been cleaned off by leading dishwasher gels.
I have tried using prewash with additional gel, as well as going completely overboard and putting 3x the amount I should into the dishwasher. Same results - unclean dishes that have to be washed again with a different type of gel.
My recommendation is to skip this product and check out the other Seventh Generation items which are much higher quality (toilet paper, paper towels, laundry detergent), but wait on this one until it gets a complete reformulation.Buy Seventh Generation Automatic Dishwasher Gel, Lemon Scent, 45-Ounce Bottles (Pack of 6)!
I LOVE the smell of this product but EVERY time it comes its leaking. Its the fault of amazon - as the original box is clearly labelled "This End Up" but amazon re-packaged it in a bigger box, laying on its side! I've gotten it three times and each time it had leaked all over. Amazon sent an email recently that they fixed the problem but then I got another leaking order yesterday.Buy Seventh Generation Natural Fabric Softener, Blue Eucalyptus and Lavender Scent, Ultra-Concentrated, 40-Ounce Bottles (Pack of 6)!
These paper towels are comparable to the ones you would find from a dispenser at the movies or other public restrooms. They are not strong, not even close. They are very thin and you would need at least 2 to do the same job as a better paper towel- ie. bounty. And the roll itself is actual smaller than a regular paper towel roll. I got a roll for free and I would personally never waste my money on these paper towels. And this may be a minor gripe, but the actual brown color of the towel is very tacky and cheap-looking. It actually looks as if you took it from a public restroom. Besides it being 'green' I find nothing redeaming about this particular paper towel.
