What (or who) is Eco Sprout? It was started by a WAHD (that’s right, a work at home dad!) who wanted to find a detergent that would not just clean cloth diapers, but also his family’s laundry. Jared wanted a soap that was “free from enzymes, phosphates and is 100% biodegradable” and set out to make that happen himself. He takes great care in his product and even manufactures it himself.
Eco Sprout detergent is available in the following scents: Lavender Chamomile, Warm Vanilla Sugar, Fresh Linen, Vanilla Sandalwood, In the Buff (unscented) and a seasonal scent, which is currently Cinnamon Sticks. Eco Sprout promises that the scent is purely for your enjoyment and will not transfer into the smell of your clothes. I was sent a large sample bag of the Lavender Chamomile laundry detergent.
What did I think? First thing I noticed was the scent! So pleasant. Just having the bag sit on the shelf gave my laundry room a great aroma. It definitely made dumping those dirty diapers into the washer a slightly more tolerable experience! After I washed and dried my diapers and cloth wipes, I did notice a slight scent linger on the wipes. No scent was detected on the diapers and the scent on the wipes was not strong and did not last into the next day. I also used the detergent on my regular clothes using both a warm and cold wash. The clothes came out clean and had no underlying scent or odor. One thing I especially noticed was that with my regular laundry soap, the undershirts would sometimes hold their odor even after a wash. This was NOT the case with Eco Sprout. It worked GREAT!
After my daughter peed on her diaper, I did notice that it had a slight ammonia smell. I quickly went on Eco Sprout’s Facebook page and noticed that I had not followed their instructions fully. They advise that whenever you start a new detergent you should first soak them in hot water with 3 tablespoons of their detergent and soak for at least 3 hours or overnight if possible. Then after draining the tub, wash again with 2 full hot washes/cold water rinses but do not use any more detergent. Upon reading this, I washed all of my diapers as they instructed and did not encounter any more ammonia scent nor was the scent of the detergent found on my wipes any more.
I give this detergent a THUMBS UP! It worked as it said it would and made my laundry room smell great, too! I was especially impressed to find a detergent that would work for ALL my laundry needs!

Oo! I’d love to try Sandalwood Vanilla! I’m really excited to find out about this detergent, because I use our apartment’s shared laundry facilities, and it is SO difficult to find a good diaper detergent that’s also not clean-rinsing. EcoSprout may be just what I’m looking for!

I am boring and really prefer unscented, so my favorite scent would be In the Buff.

I think that if I were choosing scents I would choose either the Lavendar-Chamomile, or In the Buff.

I am a vanilla and linen scent freak so I would be happy with either, in any form. Lol. Those are my two fave smells in the world. If I had to choose one though I would pick Fresh Linen, I think. I just love them both so much. Yummy!
