Truly Free Home Laundry Wash Review: Does It Really Work on Tough Stains?

Posted By: Truly Free Home|Posted On: 10/28/2026

Is Truly Free Home a Good Laundry Detergent for Tough Stains?

Our laundry wash is made with everything a detergent needs and nothing it doesn’t. Formulated without artificial fragrances, dyes, bleach, phthalates, formaldehyde, and other harsh ingredients found in conventional cleaners, Truly Free Home laundry detergent derives its stain-fighting powers from plants.


Designed to clean in cold water and made with ingredients like alkyl polyglucoside (a sugar-derived cleaning agent and non-ionic surfactant from corn and coconut plants), sodium cocoate (a plant-based surfactant), and sodium lauryl sulfoacetate (a coconut oil-derived cleaner), Truly Free Laundry Wash was created with your family’s everyday needs in mind. It’s gentle enough to use on all fabrics, from delicate baby onesies and beloved blankets to your favorite table linens or silk skirt. And for newborn clothes (and anyone with fragrance sensitivities), our laundry detergent comes in an unscented option, too.

With thousands of five-star reviews, the answer is clear. If you’re searching for a tough stain remover, Truly Free Home Laundry Wash is the way to go. Tried and tested on even the most stubborn stains (cloth diapers, we’re looking at you), our detergent works hard so every laundry load comes out fresh and clean.


Truly Free Home Laundry Detergent Review: What Customers Say

If a plant-powered detergent that actually works sounds too good to be true, we get the hesitancy. But don’t take our word for it. Truly Free Home laundry detergent reviews number in the thousands, with over 5,000 five-star reviews alone, all from real people with real-world stains.

Take, for instance, this standout review by Erin Lem at The Quality Edit. No stranger to messy (and abundant) kid stains, Erin tested our detergent on her family’s laundry. Here’s what she found:

“Cut to the post-wash moment of truth: I pulled out clothes that looked brand new. Pizza sauce? Gone. Mud-caked knees? Gone. Grass-stained soccer uniform? Gone. No stains and no lingering odors.”

So, is Truly Free Home laundry detergent good? Her verdict: Yes! Others who have chosen our detergent for tough stains say it tackles mechanical grease, hydrofluid, blood, and dirt stains with ease.

Like Truly Free Home Family Member Nicolette R., who finally got her husband’s work clothes clean:

“I have been struggling for awhile with trying to get my husband’s work clothes cleaned—he is a mechanic and works with a lot of grease, gas, hydrofluid…very smelly. Truly Free does the best I’ve seen yet with getting a DEEP CLEAN, I think maybe the enzymes?? But they actually come out smelling and feeling cleaner than washing with Tide or any of those generics. And I’m probably using less soap per load! Thank you.”

Then there's Samantha C., Truly Free Home Family Member and mom of three:

“I have tried several laundry products that contain “clean” Ingredients however they did not get my clothes clean. After switching to Truly Free’s Laundry Wash, I can confidently say the product WORKS! As a mom of 3 young boys, dirt, blood stains from scrapes knees and grass stains are difficult to get out. Pair the Laundry Wash with the Truely Free Stain Stick and their clothes come out spotless. I cannot thank this company enough for their wonderful products. I cannot rest easy knowing I’m not exposing my family to harmful chemicals.”

Members like Mackenzie M. love our signature scent, too.

“I absolutely am obsessed with the laundry wash signature scent. It's easy to put together and it really gets my clothes clean and smelling fresh.”
