Would Not RecommendThey answer on one of the FAQ’s that this detergent can be used in HE washer. Maybe if you use a couple of drops! I put a very small amount and suds galore. Have to run extra rinse. Not sure it cleans very well. Will finish the bottle on towels.

Amazing
Would RecommendOur towels were always clean but had a light musty smell and my shirts were getting dingy and also had a clean but worn smell even fresh out of the dryer. We tried every combo of expensive soaps and drier sheets possible and had no luck. I am also alergic to heavy sented items. Saw an Ad for 9 elements and thought " Aha I have the pefect challenge for them " IT WORKS ! My towels and shirts smell fresh and CLEAN not masked with perfume. I'm a 51 year old male and when i see people looking at soap...

Noticeable Difference After 1 Wash!
Would RecommendI love white sheets but often struggle with them staying clean and bright. I washed my white sheets with Tide and Oxy Clean White, and they came out cleaner but still dingy and smelled spoiled still. I washed again with this detergent and they are so bright and clean and no more soiled odor. Love!!!!

Great detergent
Would RecommendSmells good, leaves my clothes soft, doesn't irritate my skin, and helps keep musty smell from front loading machine.
Great for stinky gym clothes
Would RecommendI use this product on my husbands gym clothes and towels. a good presoak works great on those that need a little extra after being forgotten in the gym bag. A nice light fragrance smells lightly lemony fresh...in a good way!!!

Awful Allergic Reaction
Would Not RecommendMy daughter broke out in hives from head to after sleeping with a blanket washed with this detergent. Yes, it was confirmed by medical professionals that this was the cause of her skin reaction. She has NEVER had an allergic reaction to a detergent before and I have used a few different types.

We decided to give this a try and just with our first wash it took out a lot of dirt. The water became brown because it truly rinses out the clothes! I like the smell, but thats because I love the smell of lemons. This truly impressed me.my husband is big about cleaning and disenfecting that he actually felt relief washing clothes with this product and that for me is a big deal! Thank...

Would Not RecommendApparently 1 or more of the 9 Elements makes clothing smell somewhat like turpentine. Cleaning ability not worth that factor.
Unpleasant smell
Would Not RecommendI like how it get cloths clean. But after I did all my laundry. The clothes smells like as if they were marinated in lemon juice and vinegar. And gotten allergic reactions from it.

Odd smell
Would Not RecommendLove the idea of the lemon scent; however, the scent from this was very odd, definitely not lemon. Smelled lemon and vinegar in bottle, but onced washed and in the dryer the smell was awful. Had to use dryer sheets to get rid of the 'dirty' smell. Not buying again!

Smells like pee and soap residue on clothes
Would Not RecommendThe lemon scent is not refreshing at all...it smells like urine. When my clothes were done washing they still had soap on them. I re-rinsed and spun and they STILL had soap. I will never wash my clothes in this again. I am currently rewashing the load with a different soap...such a waste of water.

Works great!
Would RecommendI’ve washed serval loads and my clothes are clean and fresh. I’ve also noticed that the fabrics are soft without the use of fabric softener.

Best with well water!
Would RecommendI have tried so many detergents in the 11 years since I've had well water, and came to the conclusion that I could no longer own white clothing, towels as they would be yellowed. Nine Elements has removed all of the hard water stains and is now the only detergent I buy. Please let others know that these are fantastic products for the many people who rely on wells for their water.

Laundry detergent!
Would Not Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got this 9 elements alliances detergent and ended up giving it away. I personally felt like it had a funky scent and it didn't clean my clothes At all and left them Smelling bad and still dirty. The smell of vinegar was also too strong for me.
