 Earth Friendly Ultra Ecos Magnolia and Lily is a good detergent. Recently, I have been replacing my cleaning products with "green" versions.  This detergent is made by a great company, Earth Friendly Products, that has a very informative web site. I really liked their message. The Ecos Magnolia and Lily is the first of their products I have tried.

This detergent does a very good job cleaning an average load of laundry. Earth Friendly Ultra contains natural softeners, so you don't need to add a softener. The clothes come out clean and soft with a very faint fresh floral scent.  This is not the detergent to use on your most soiled or smelly loads without a laundry booster. After a wash in Earth Friendly Ultra, my husband's quite smelly workout clothes did not smell clean. I had to wash them again.  

The price for this detergent is very good, comparable to any name brand. The cleaning ability is good and if a laundry booster is added, able to handle messier or stinkier loads.  I am satisfied with Earth Friendly Ultra Ecos.

Good for GREEN! I've a frontloading washer (one of my proudest possessions) and recently started using 2X Ultra Ecos. I'm absolutely amazed at how far a piddling amount of detergent goes. 2X can also be used for toploaders. This certainly sounds stronger than than Ultra Ecos. Do you suppose it might give you the extra boost you need?
My problem is that the softeners added to these green products don't seem to do anything for my clothes. Probably because, I hang my laundry out.
I enjoyed your review!
