What owners single out
Packaging durability emerged as the weakest aspect among buyers, echoing concerns about how the product arrives damaged during shipping.
In their words
“I soaked a vintage 1930's silk ivory wedding dress two times in an 8 gallon bucket of cold water. The dress had yellowed significantly (even though it had been boxed by a professional cleaner). It is now stunning. Also, no harm to the silk or the lace, and no scrubbing or detailing required by me”

“I purchased the 400 load tub previously. I used it all and like the product. It seems to soften the cloths some. I ordered the 100 load tin which is cute. It arrived in a box, tin opened and soda spilled out. Fed Ex driver was concerned about the powder substance leaking out of the box. I told him what it was and we established we wouldn’t get poisoned or explode.”
