Seventh Generation Review and Giveaway

 I got to try some Seventh Generation products from their free and clear line.It included the
FREE & CLEAR STARTER KIT
Free & Clear Natural Glass & Surface Cleaner
Free & Clear Natural All Purpose Cleaner
Free & Clear Natural Dish Liquid
Free & Clear Natural Laundry Detergent, 50 oz
 Natural Paper Towels - 120 Count
Reusable Tote

I was very impressed with their products for a lot of reasons.I tried the Natural All Purpose Cleaner on the back of the bottle it says Seventh Generation products , although not intended for consumption, aren't poisonous.  That right their would be enough for me to love them. As a mom I am always afraid of my son getting in to the cleaning products. I used the All Purpose Cleaner and the Natural Paper Towels to clean my stove. They did a great job. We had spaghetti that night and sauce spilled and got cooked on the stove. The cleaner got my stove clean and shiny again. 

Next I tried the Free & Clear Natural Dish Liquid.
It is made from Plant-derived Cleaning Agents so it is safe, non-toxic formula is safe for the whole family. I used the dish soap . It made so many bubbles. I think this may be the bubbliest dish soap I have ever used. They lasted through the whole sink load. It got all the dishes clean.
I do not have a dish washer so I could not try the automatic dishwasher pacs. I will give them to my friend who does have a dish washer. From the website.These concentrated automatic dishwasher pacs deliver our phosphate and chlorine free formula in a convenient single-use pac.
 
Next I tried the Free & Clear Natural 2X Concentrated Laundry Liquid.
A unique combination of plant-derived cleaning agents and enzymes to power out even the toughest stains. Truly free and clear of fragrances, dyes and masking agents. It is 
  • Safe for septic & greywater systems
  • Not tested on animals
  • Kosher-certified 
I was impressed with how little goes so far. It got my clothes clean . I also got to try the Free & Clear Natural Fabric Softener Canola-derived fabric softener makes your laundry naturally fluffy and static-free. Add to your final rinse cycle or use for hand-washing delicates. Truly free and clear of fragrances, dyes, and masking agents.
Last but not least one of my favorites out of here is the Free & Clear Natural Glass & Surface Cleaner. 
I usually use the brand name window cleaner. I have tried others and just am not happy with streaking. This cleans without streaks and uses no harsh chemicals. I used it on out bathroom mirrors and some windows. I was very pleased how they turned out.
My house is now clean and sparkly and with out any harsh chemicals. I would recommend this to anyone who wants to clean and be greener. I know when that from now i am going to be stuck on the Free & Clear Natural Dish Liquid, and Free & Clear Natural Glass & Surface Cleaner.

We recycle what we can. If we can use something, we'll donate it or sell it in a garage sale instead of just toss it. Also as soon as it gets a little warmer, we'll be hanging our laundry out instead of using the dryer.

To help the environment, we're trying to add up a lot of little things. We recycle EVERYTHING we can and the kids help make sure no recycles go in the trash. We're unplugging items like chargers and coffee pots when not in use to cut down usage. We keep it cooler at night (warmer in summer) inside. Carpools, etc.
