Guest guest Posted February 24, 2009 Report Share Posted February 24, 2009 No, since I've been making my own laundry soap, I never got any. Sounds interesting, though! I'm guessing you'd need fewer for a front loader, but it's just a guess. Beth www.soapandgarden.com www.soapandgarden.blogspot.com Be good to your skin!

Guest guest Posted February 28, 2009 Report Share Posted February 28, 2009 Hi Jeanine, I have used the soap nuts before. They seem to work okay. Although they go through both the wash and the rinse. Does that mean we are washing our clothes twice? : ) > > I just ordered some soap nuts. Anxious to see how they work. I was told > they are fine for front loader machines.

Guest guest Posted March 1, 2009 Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 Soap nuts are not nuts but the fruit of the tree. Try googling 'soap nuts'.

Guest guest Posted March 1, 2009 Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 Last I knew we carried them at the store (Natur-Tyme), and one of my co-workers who we convinced to use them said they work really good.

Guest guest Posted March 1, 2009 Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 LOL, I suppose so--if it didn't kill you first. I know lots of the plants with saponins are dangerous to eat, but I don't know if all saponins are inedible. Beth www.soapandgarden.com www.soapandgarden.blogspot.com Be good to your skin!

Guest guest Posted February 25, 2012 Report Share Posted February 25, 2012 I had heard of soap nuts, but had never looked into them until today's discussion. I just ordered this Deluxe Kit: http://www.laundrytree.com/deluxekit.htmlWill be interested to see how they work! Should last for a while… Blessings,Lea Ann SavageSatellite Beach, FL(321) 773-7088 (home)(321-961-9219 (cell)))><'>www.VitamixLady.comwww..com<))>< On Feb 25, 2012, at 9:09 AM, wrote: I did use them for laundry for a long time. As I said, I can't really remember why I quit using soap nuts-I think I just ran out of a source for buying them back when I used them-internet wasn't so available at the time, lol. They did a great job. I now use just baking soda and peroxide for laundry, but I think I will order some of the nuts and give them another go!
