I pretty much love to clean my house and I always like to try new products. So, when it comes to cleaning my house, I try my best to stay away from harsh chemicals. Being a parent and having my little Sophia around, I don’t want cleaning chemicals around that are nothing but hazardous to her. And, Sophia loves to help me clean with her little broom, mops and scrubbers. So, when I was browsing on the internet, I came across this company called Seventh Generation and read about it but I wanted to try it out for myself. They carry a complete line of non-toxic household products and on top of that they are eco-friendly.
Upon my request Seventh Generation provided me with the following products to review. I choose to review the Seventh Generation Free & Clear Starter Kit. I received the following items:Free & Clear Starter Kit
- Disinfecting Multi-Surface
- Disinfecting Bathroom
- Disinfecting Wipes – 35 ct.
- Please note: TheDisinfectants have Thymol sent (from Thyme oil). These are NOT considered free & clear, but they are great for immune-depressed households or those with small children, hence why I’ve included them here. The scent dissipates quickly.
- Laundry Detergent – F&C 32 oz
- Liquid Fabric Softener – F&C 40 oz
- Dish liquid
- All- Purpose Cleaner
- Auto-Dish Pacs
- Glass Cleaner
- Natural Paper Towels
- Seventh Gen Recycled Bag
When I received the products, I was quite surprised of how many cleaning supplies there were to review, so I had my work cut out for me. Since, we have a front load washer, I was indeed excited to receive the laundry detergent that is effective in both high-efficiencty and standard machines. After washing my clothes, it felt soft and clean. Then, I went off to clean the bathroom, I totally sprayed the entire shower with the shower spray and tub cleaner. Then, I poured the toilet bowl cleaner in and started to scrub, oh my, I truly loved what I saw. I did not have to do a lot of scrubbing and it looked amazing. Love the clear and clean shine it showed. Usually when I cleaned my bathroom, my husband always complained about the strong chemical fumes in the area and he could not stand it, so he always tries to leave the room or turns the fan on. But after cleaning with Seventh Generation cleaners the smell was not so strong. What could be better then that?
I had a hard time recently that my drinking glasses had that foggy color and I could not figure out why it was not coming off. I tried so many products and it did not remove it, so I ended up buying new glasses. Until, I tried the Dishwasher Concentrate pacs and Natural Dish Liquid. That foggy color was gone. I showed them to my husband, and he was impressed with it. So, my frustration was resolved. I then tried the Disinfecting Wipes on any surface and I just loved it. It is easy to clean with!! I am a big fan of paper towels, yes, I can use paper towels so much that my husband can’t stand it. So, I really like the Recycled Paper towels from Seventh Generation. They are 100% recycled paper (minimum 80% post-consumer, 20% pre-consumer). So no trees were harmed.
I love the fact that after cleaning my house, my family finally did not have to leave our house, because of strong chemical odors. I truly love these products because they are non-toxic, safe and eco-friendly household products. For immediate purchase go to Seventh Generation and view more of their products or visit your local store.
