Miniml Laundry Liquid Washing Detergent 5L Refill – Fresh Linen

This detergent is gentle on my fussy skin. The container is massive and hold loads of liquid so it is going to last me forever! It is great value and it washes my clothes well - very effective. The scent is delicate and not overpowering which is to my liking. I have to use a bit more than recommended as a preference and its great at cleaning. If heavy soiled clothing I add a tablespoon of cheap table salt to the detergent draw and that does the trick. It’s easy to use because I bought a pump dispenser. I was frantic thinking it would leak but the dispenser spout can turn upwards so no drips!!

Bought this as made a decision to go chemical free. So glad I did.it works well at 20°. I got turmeric on my top thought there was no chance of being able to wear it. How wrong was I. I put a bit of washing detergent on it and scrubbed popped it in machine came out with not a mark on it. Great value as worked out far cheaper than normal brand and worked better. Suttle scent . One of my best buys I then went and got most of the other products in the brand. No skin reaction and no harsh chemicals

I’ve been using this laundry detergent for a few weeks now and overall I’m really happy with it. The 5L refill is generous and has lasted a good while even with regular family washing, which feels like great value for the amount. The first thing I noticed was how gentle it is. The natural formula doesn’t have a super strong scent, which I appreciate because it doesn’t overpower and our children don't really like the typical strong washing smells. It still gets clothes clean, even on everyday loads with dirt and food marks, without needing any stain removers or anything which is great. I’ve used it on a mix of cottons, synthetics and delicates, including lighter coloured clothes and towels, and haven’t seen any fading or dulling. It rinses well and doesn’t leave any sticky residue on fabrics which I have found can be a problem with heavier detergents. It’s also quite concentrated so I don’t need to use much per wash, and that’s helping the bottle last longer than I expected. I did have to double check the dosing guide the first time, but now I am used to how much you need to put in the results have been consistent. If you’re looking for a natural formula that still cleans effectively and is easy on skin and and smells just right then I think this is a solid choice. I would buy this washing liquid again and would recommend it to anyone who prefers gentler natural laundry products.

I'll start with the economy of this product. Our purchase of 5l laundry detergent has lasted 2 mucky people with a mud-loving dog a year. Our use of this product has been supplemented by the occasional BIO laundry detergent wash when the dog has rolled in fox poo for obvious reasons, but for most washes, the only additional additive we've used has been the occasional splosh of fresh pet disinfectant in the detergent drawer for items like the dog's bedding or particularly sweaty sports or socks washes. Occasionally, we have used a bit of elbow grease spray cleaner, or Smol stain remover on the odd curry-cooking-night accident (think grease, turmeric, or tomato stains on white T-shirts!). It's advertised as being for 165 washes, and I would say that's pretty accurate. We possibly eke out a few more washes because we are fortunate enough to live in a soft water area. I do prefer using a liquid over pods because you can adjust the amount of detergent to best fit the grubbiness and size of your individual wash load. This product doesn't clog the dispenser drawer like powders either, which is great because it means one less task on the to-do list. I'm pretty impressed by the sheer economy of this product! We don't bother with fabric conditioner, as we have sensitive skin that's prone to being triggered by excessive perfumes. The only issue I have with our last purchase having lasted a year is the lack of variety for my nose, but it's swings and roundabouts, and the sheer convenience of only having to remember to purchase this once a year wins out over buying the smaller-sized 1-litre 33 wash size container for me. I have sensitive skin, and its been nice to be able to scrub my smalls at the sink without fear of my skin reacting, cos there's nothing worse than exzema cracked and bleeding knuckles mid-winter. It has decent cleaning for a non-bio, none of which can perform miracles on genuine filth, or bad stains. The Fresh Linen mild scent is great "clean" smell for anyone who is not fond of the chemically pongs that permeate many non-eco products these days, but you will need scent boosters/fabric conditioner if you are a fan of very strongly scented laundry. I also tried the dragon fruit variety before this one, and tbh would purchase that again in preference to the Linen because the scent is to my nose just that bit stronger and really nice, whereas the Linen we have just gotten to the end of is a bit bland and generic to my mind. My next purchase will be the Jasmine because I am a huge fan of vanilla scents, so I'm hoping for great things from that one. I find the consistency is easy to refill my smaller bottle and to use a pump mechanism on the 5 L container, and for measuring the amount I want to use in the washing machine detergent drawer. It's an effective cleaner for a non-bio, and I'd happily recommend it to any new mother looking for something without nasties for their tiny tots, or for anyone involved in fragile elder care. The only reason I am giving it 4 stars instead of 5 is that it can't tackle the very worst of bad stains on its own. Regarding the zero-waste aspect. You have to go to the Miniml website and get a code to be able to return 4 containers at once, postage-free, so that they can be washed and reused for the benefit of future customers. For us, that's fine because we also use the multi-purpose cleaning spray and washing-up liquid from the same brand. You do need somewhere to store the empties, though (we pop them in the shed), as well as the 5L container you are currently using, which could be an issue for some households. It's also very helpful to have a funnel (get one in the £1 shop!) or a pump (these can be purchased directly from Miniml) for ease of decanting into a smaller bottle for everyday use. The container is heavy when full! So if you have mobility/strength issues, investing in a pump will be a worthwhile investment long term. Minimal do 1 litre forever bottle containers, and purchasing one of these first to trial this product may be a good idea if you can't decide upon a scent. For smaller households, the Fresh Linen scent is only available in one-litre reusable pouches, which again can be sent back free of charge via the code on the Miniml website. It's a great way to go plastic-free/zero waste without pain.

I’ve been trying to move toward more sustainable household products, and the Miniml Eco Laundry Liquid has quickly become a staple in our home. It’s rare to find a detergent that’s both eco-conscious and genuinely effective, but this one checks all the boxes. 🧺 Impressive Cleaning Performance Despite being non-bio and plant-based, it cuts through typical family laundry mess—muddy socks, sweaty gym wear, food spills—without breaking a sweat. I even tested it on low-temperature cycles (30°C), and the clothes came out clean, fresh, and soft. 🌸 Gentle Fresh Linen Fragrance The scent is light, non-synthetic, and doesn’t linger heavily on the clothes—just enough of a crisp, fresh linen smell to make folding laundry a bit more enjoyable. Perfect for those who are sensitive to overpowering fragrances. 🌍 Sustainability Done Right Comes in a massive 5L refill, reducing plastic waste significantly. Fully biodegradable and vegan-certified. No harsh chemicals, optical brighteners, or synthetic dyes. It’s great to know you’re not pouring nasties down the drain, and the refill model means less packaging and better value. 💧Economical & Long-Lasting Claims 165 washes, and based on my usage, that’s accurate. The liquid is concentrated, so a little really goes a long way—even with larger loads. 🧴 Ideal for Sensitive Skin No irritation or reactions on anyone in the family, which is a huge plus in a household with kids and delicate skin. It’s been just as good on hand-wash-only items and delicates. Verdict: A fantastic laundry liquid that proves you don't have to compromise effectiveness to go green. Whether you're eco-minded, have skin sensitivities, or simply want an efficient, long-lasting refill, Miniml delivers. ✅ Vegan, cruelty-free, biodegradable ✅ Subtle, clean fragrance ✅ Gentle yet effective on stains ✅ Fantastic value for money Highly recommended if you’re moving toward a refill-and-reuse lifestyle.

I am very glad of my purchase. This detergent leaves the clothes clean, soft, with a very pleasant smell. The quantity is generous and it is valued for money spent.

I really like this 5 litre bottle of Miniml laundry liquid. You can but cheap pumps that are compatible with it that easily screw on. It has a handle making moving it around easier. This one is for sensitive skin (which i have) and my skin has been fine with it. It's not fragrance free and the scent is actually a little too strong.

I Have nod had a great experience with the product. Mu second delivery was not delivered, I had to chase with amazon and it was delivered they had marked it delivered. Then in August I order again laundry detergent and it came not sealed. The seal was loosely on the top of the bottle when I opened and also had a black mark of with a hole on the cover seal. The worst thing was the detergent was dilluted it had separate, looked like half soap and water. By the time I was from holiday and discovered I had been described with the product quality poor. I decided to use up the product but I will never buy this product again. The service and quality of the product is poor. Unhappy customer. I have moved on to another clean and good quality sustainable product. Be aware of the product. Don't waist your money

Smells nice and cleans well! Good value for money! Will last a good while! Thank you Miniml!
