Blueland Review

In my efforts to use less single-use plastic products in 2021, I purchased The Clean Essentials Kit from Blueland.

Review

I’ve been using these products for a month. I intentionally waited this long before posting a review. What do I like about this kit?

• It saves me money. 6 tablet refills cost only $14 compared to other single-use cleaning products that cost around $22.50.

• The cleaning products work well. I’ve used the multi-purpose cleaner to clean granite countertops and some furniture made of wood. I’ve also used the glass + mirror cleaner and the bathroom cleaner. They both work well in cleaning glass, mirror, bath tubs, and shower walls.

• The bottles are thick and sturdy. I’ve accidentally dropped one of the bottles on hardwood floor and it didn’t break.

• The bottles look pretty. I love the colors on the bottles. It makes it easy to grab what I need without reading the label.

• The tablet refills are easy to store. I use mason jars to store the tablets. 14 tablet refills fit in one quart size mason jar. Did I also mention I love that the tablets are packaged in paper instead of plastic?

I only have two suggestions to the company. First is to create a stronger formula for the foaming hand soap. It’s more on the watery side compared to other foaming hand soaps. However, the scents are really good. Second is regarding the cleaning products. There seems to be a lingering scent after wiping, which I couldn’t distinguish what exactly, but it’s definitely something one could ignore because the scent dissipates after a few minutes.

Final Verdict

I absolutely recommend this kit to all my readers. I’ve been sharing my thoughts about Blueland to my family and friends to encourage them to use less single-use plastic products. This would also make a good house warming gift to family and friends.
