Reviewer Background Information: I purchased this product my first week in my new apartment. I also am currently a 4th year at the University of Virginia.

The Purex Complete 3-in1 Laundry Sheets is an all-in-one solution for laundry. It is sold in both a 20 sheet starter-pack (it comes with a special sheet-holding container) and a 24-refill pack. At the time of this review, the Purex Complete 3-in-1 was available in 3 appealing scents. Now let’s get to the pros and cons.

Pros

• Takes up minimal space
• Takes care of the entire laundry life-cycle (detergent, softener, and anti-static)
• Scents are appealing to the senses
• Light & easy to store – No more lugging detergent to laundry mats.
• Is inexpensive
• One pack will last an entire school semester!

Cons

• User cannot control quantity of detergent
• No specialized detergent (bleach, etc.)
• Sheets can get stuck in some washing machines (uncommon but check with manufacturer)
• Does not clean clothes enough for some peoples liking

This is still a very new product but it definitely is catching on. I find the product to work well for me but wouldn’t trust it if I got extremely dirty. It might be a good idea to have a secondary, tiny bottle of detergent for special cases. I am sure the product will improve as time goes on but I would even recommend it now!
