You're reading Earth Breeze reviews with a nearly empty detergent jug on the washer. Are laundry sheets worth the switch, and which brand should you try? Earth Breeze, Tru Earth and Zero Trace all make good sheets, and each one wins on something different. Earth Breeze has the clearest price per load and a subscription discount. Tru Earth has the most scents and dissolved fast in a cold-water test. Zero Trace has the widest everyday range in one $19.99 pack. That includes a fragrance-free, baby-friendly version, and it's sold plastic-free.
Here's how the three compare on price, skin, machines, packaging and subscriptions.
How do the three laundry sheet brands compare?
A laundry sheet is a dry strip of detergent that dissolves in the wash. There's no jug to lug home or pour. On price alone, an Earth Breeze 180-load pack was $35.99 on Amazon. A 64-sheet Tru Earth pack was $25.99 at Walmart Business. A Zero Trace pack is $19.99 on its own product page. The rest of the picture is scent, skin, machines and packaging.
For a wider look at the category, there's also a brand-by-brand comparison of laundry detergent sheets. Prices change often, so check them again before you buy. Each source and the date it was checked are listed at the end.
| Earth Breeze | Tru Earth | Zero Trace | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Price and size | $35.99 for 180 loads, about $0.20 per load (Amazon listing) | $25.99 for 64 sheets, up to 128 loads (Walmart Business) | $19.99 (Zero Trace product page) |
| Scents and fragrance-free | Fresh Scent and Fragrance Free (Amazon listing) | Linen, Lilac Breeze, Fragrance Free (Walmart Business) | Fresh Scent, Active Wear, Fragrance Free and Baby Friendly |
| Sensitive-skin claims | Dermatologist-tested, hypoallergenic (Amazon Canada listing) | Baby version: hypoallergenic, dermatologically tested (Walmart listing) | Hypoallergenic, dye-free |
| Cold water and HE | Hot or cold, all machines incl. HE (Target product page) | Low-sudsing, HE-compatible (CNN Underscored) | All machines and temperatures |
| Packaging | Slim cardboard, no plastic jug (Amazon Canada listing) | Cuts down on plastic jugs (Walmart listing) | Plastic-free, TSA-friendly |
| Where to buy | Amazon, Target | Walmart, Amazon Canada | Zero Trace product page |
| Subscription | Subscribe & Save from $32.39 (Amazon listing) | Not checked | Not stated on product page |
On Amazon's Earth Breeze Fresh Scent listing, Subscribe & Save brought the price to $32.39, about $0.18 per load. With the bigger repeat-delivery discount it was $30.59, about $0.17 per load. The Fragrance Free version cost the same $35.99 for 180 loads.
To compare brands fairly, work out the price per load. Divide the pack price by the number of loads it really does. A $20 pack that does 40 loads costs 50 cents a load.
Here's the catch: "loads" doesn't mean the same thing everywhere. Tru Earth's "up to 128 loads" counts half-sheet loads. Earth Breeze suggests half a sheet for a regular load and a full sheet for a large one. So a cheaper pack isn't always cheaper per load. The Zero Trace product page doesn't state a load count, which means there's no fair per-load figure for it here.
Earth Breeze has a couple of extras worth knowing. It has been a Certified B Corporation since October 2023, according to B Lab Global. It also says it donates 10 loads for every purchase. Tru Earth suits shoppers who want a Walmart pack and scents like Linen and Lilac Breeze.
Which sheets suit sensitive skin, cold water and HE machines?
All three brands sell a fragrance-free option. That's the first thing to look for if anyone at home has sensitive skin. Zero Trace makes its Fragrance Free and Baby Friendly version part of the main line. It describes all its sheets as hypoallergenic and dye-free. Walmart Business's Tru Earth listing sells a Fragrance Free strip. Walmart describes Tru Earth's baby version as hypoallergenic and dermatologically tested. Earth Breeze calls its sheets dermatologist-tested and hypoallergenic. Target points shoppers who want no added scent to its Fragrance Free sheets.
These are the brands' own claims, not medical advice. If someone in the house reacts to detergent, check with a doctor.
An HE machine is a high-efficiency washer that uses less water. Zero Trace says its sheets work in all machines and at all temperatures. Target's Earth Breeze page says the same for hot or cold water and HE washers. For HE machines, it suggests a presoak, an extra rinse or tearing the sheet in half. In CNN Underscored's testing, a full Tru Earth sheet dissolved in cold water in about 30 seconds.
Every laundry sheet has its limits, though. Heavy dirt, hard water and cold cycles in some machines can need a little extra help. For set-in grass or grease, a dedicated stain remover is usually the better tool.
As for what's in them, here's only what each brand says. Earth Breeze says it's free of bleach, dyes, parabens, phosphates and phthalates. Tru Earth says it's vegan-friendly and paraben-free. Zero Trace says hypoallergenic and dye-free. None of that replaces a controlled stain test. No test was run for this article, so there are no cleaning scores here.
One more thing that confuses people: Earth Breeze is a different company from Breeze detergent. Target's page says Earth Breeze sheets are made in the USA from ingredients sourced in the US, Canada and Europe.
What about packaging, subscriptions and where to buy?
All three skip the plastic jug. Earth Breeze uses slim cardboard. Tru Earth says its sheets cut down on plastic jugs. Zero Trace is plastic-free and TSA-friendly, so a pack fits in a carry-on.
Subscriptions are where Earth Breeze reviews split. Trustpilot's Earth Breeze review page gave the brand 2.6 stars. Many reviewers said they ended up in a recurring subscription at checkout and struggled to cancel. Others praised the support team. The Better Business Bureau listed 84 complaints over three years, 43 of them in the most recent 12 months. On the other side, Trustindex showed 4.2 out of 5 across more than 18,000 reviews. The complaints mostly fall into three groups:
- Surprise recurring charges
- Trouble canceling
- Trouble reaching support
If you do order Earth Breeze, the company's own replies to complaints suggest a few steps:
- Check whether a recurring plan box is ticked before you pay.
- Log in to your account to view, pause or cancel a plan.
- Make changes at least 48 hours before the next scheduled order.
- Remember that each product in a bundle has its own subscription.
Buying through Amazon's Subscribe & Save avoids most of this. Amazon says there are no fees and you can cancel anytime.
Where to buy: Earth Breeze sells on Amazon and at Target. Tru Earth sells at Walmart and on Amazon Canada, where its Fresh Linen pack (up to 64 loads) was CA$14.99. Zero Trace sells through its own product page.
Where Zero Trace fits
The best laundry sheets are the ones that suit your skin, your machine and your budget. If a clear price per load or an Amazon subscription matters most, Earth Breeze makes that easy. If you want more scent choices, Tru Earth has them. Zero Trace fits households that want one simple pack covering sensitive skin, gym clothes and travel.
Zero Trace option: Laundry Detergent Sheets, in Fresh Scent, Active Wear, and Fragrance Free and Baby Friendly. They're hypoallergenic and dye-free, work in all machines and temperatures, and come plastic-free.
It suits:
- Households with sensitive skin or babies
- Gym bags, with the Active Wear scent
- Travelers who pack light
- Small apartment machines on cold cycles
It isn't the pick for a set-in stain that needs a dedicated remover, or for anyone attached to Tru Earth's Lilac Breeze. That lilac isn't coming with you.
If cutting plastic is your main reason to switch, there's more on moving from plastic jugs to Zero Trace sheets.
The Bottom Line
Earth Breeze is a fair product with a bumpy subscription experience, and the clearest price per load of the three. Tru Earth offers the widest scent range and a good cold-water showing. Zero Trace gives you one pack that's hypoallergenic, dye-free, plastic-free and works in any machine at any temperature. Pick the one that matches what matters most in your laundry room.
