I am so excited that my new Frigidaire appliances, including a Washer and Dryer, will be arriving soon but until then I have some of my own laundry room excitement. I have been trying out Purex’s new Complete 3-in-1™ Laundry Sheets. I thought surely a sheet couldn’t accomplish and product the same results that detergent + a dryer sheet could but as always sometimes I am wrong. Huh?
How Does It Work?
1. Drop a Purex® Complete 3-in-1™ Laundry Sheet into the washer, the detergent is released during the wash cycle.
2. Once the wash is complete, transfer the laundry sheet with clothes to dryer. The stripe is heat activated by the dryer to soften and remove static.
3. You’re done! Now, you get someone else to fold and put the laundry away. (that was a joke!)
My 9 year old son does his laundry most of the time now and these are a life saver! I would tell him how much liquid detergent to measure before he went down to the laundry area, but it never failed.. he would yell up to me “Mom, how much of this stuff do I put in”? Ugh!! Haven’t I told you a million times? Then I began to wonder, is 9 years old to young to do his own laundry? Everyone I know convinced me that as long as he’s ok with it, doesn’t break the washer or dryer, hurt himself, it’s all good. Now, I feel even better knowing that he just has to drop one sheet into the washer with his clothes and not worry about messy liquid detergent and remembering to put a dryer sheet in when he switches his stuff over to the dryer.
Purex® Complete 3-in-1™ Laundry Sheets come in three scents and are available in two package types – a Starter Kit (1 Dispenser + 20 Laundry Sheets) and a value Refill Pouch (24 Laundry Sheets). Suggested retail pricing for both the 20 sheet Starter Kit (includes convenient Dispenser) and 24 sheet Refill Pack is $5.99-$7.49.
The Starter Kit includes a refillable Dispenser that makes it simple to protect and access Purex Complete 3-in-1™ Laundry Sheets. Once you have the Dispenser, simply purchase the money-saving Refill Pouch to fill the convenient Dispenser.
As part of The Dial Co./Purex’s holistic approach to sustainability, Purex developed Purex® Complete 3-in-1™ Laundry Sheets with significant consideration to our environmental impact. If everyone in the United States1 switched to buying Purex® Complete 3-in-1™ Laundry Sheets, 41 Olympic-sized pools worth of water would be saved each single refill purchase versus purchasing a standard 50oz bottle of liquid detergent! If every American bought just one Purex® Complete 3-in-1™ Laundry Sheet Refill instead of even one bottle of liquid detergent2, we could prevent the equivalent of 91 million detergent bottles (27 million lbs), originally destined for landfills, from being produced – keeping over eight football fields worth of packaging out of landfills.

I got a new Frigidaire Affinity FL 3.5 cu ft washer & 7 cu ft dryer with free pedestals for under $1000 including delivery & installation from Bob at H H Gregg. Then I got a test product that were washer/dryer sheets to use. Letter stated it was perfect for FL washer. SO I put 1 in washer & my week’s worth of clothes for 2. Then the whole load goes into the dryer. Wonderful fragrance & feel. Then the sheet cleans my dryer vent.
We cruise on Princess who is the only cruiseline with washers & dryers to use. I put 4 sheets into a Zip Lok bag & into my carry on it goes. Works wonders with the $1 washer & dryer. Even my husband uses them since he doesn’t have to measure, spill, then clean up. So we love it. Then I get BOGO coupons so I have 20 packs in my pedestal.
I used to use these Purex 3 in 1 until I had to call the repairman. These sheets clogged my pump in the washer big time. They get between the tubs and go straight to the pump. I will never use them again. Back to the liquid for me.
I have been using the 3 in 1 sheets and yes they do make doing laundry easier. The downfall is I have had several articles of clothing ruined by them. The package says if spots occur on your clothes to rub them with a white bar of soap, but of course this is not discovered until after drying during folding and the stains are set in. I will no longer use the 3 in 1 because the time it is saving is not worth the cost to replace my clothes.
I thought that dryer sheets were very bad for the new HE dryers. They all say NOT to use them.
I love the idea of the Purex 3 in 1 sheet…no muss/no fuss… but wont the dryer sheet hurt my dryer?
I tried the Purex 3 in 1 and I wouldn’t recommend them! I loved the idea of not having all those bottles of other things all over, one sheet does it all. I found myself using extra fabric softener and Bounce dryer sheets. I even used a little more laundry detergent! I love using Purex, I use the Purex Natural Elements right now. I have used Purex for years and will continue to do so but I really really wouldn’t recommend using these. I tried to post my experience on the Purex site and they wouldn’t allow it!
