How long it lasts
Warnings
Keep out of reach of children. Keep out of eyes. If it gets in the eyes, gently flush with clean water. The DISH BLOCK® dish soap bar is very solid and not designed to be cut safely. dishes will get slippery when soapy and wet. Do not leave sitting in a pool of water, it needs to stay drained and dry between uses.
*Test in an inconspicuous spot for new materials you wish to use it on to ensure compatibility. Not recommended for delicate fabrics, with naturally dyed products or for use on porous stone surfaces such as granite, quartz or marble. We do not guarantee compatibility with all materials.
Storage and Care
Keep as dry as possible, a soap holder that allows drainage is preferable. Do not leave wet sponge or dish brush on the DISH BLOCK® as it can cause water to sit and slowly create a hole.
How to use it
I tried to use this as a substitute for a sponge and Dawn dish soap. The scrub brush cannot fit in hard to reach places including drinking glasses. It holds onto food like a steel wool scrubber but is way less effective. I ended up using it as a pre-wash to my dishwasher. A couple weeks in, a hole formed in the middle of the soap like a candle melting unevenly. Food inevitably got stuck in it and it looked pretty gross towards the end. I threw it away as it was more trouble than it was worth. I would recommend just using the Dr. Bronner’s liquid castille soap with the cardboard refills and a reusable sponge (for less waste) or use Dawn and a sponge, both cheaper and more effective.
Thank you for your feedback. We would like to help you with this -- it sounds like you already threw out the brush, which is unfortunate because otherwise we would have helped you with a return if done within 60 days, as per our policy. Were you using the CASA AGAVE® Pot Brush for all of your dishes?
We do recommend that when you use the DISH BLOCK® that you alternate where you are applying the brush, as otherwise it can develop a cavity. It is also important to make sure you don't let water pool in the soap or have the brush sitting in moisture -- both need to dry fully to stay in their best shape.
As you know, one of our most important principles is the lack of plastic in our packaging. Unfortunately, even the brand you mentioned with the cardboard container actually does have plastic mixed in with their cardboard, and their packaging is non-recyclable. Castille soap is great for hands but is not the best fit for washing dishes.
I never write reviews but I just came here to say that this giant block has lasted me for two years; for a household of 3, recently 4, and with lots of visiting guests. (I'm coming here to reorder, so I went and checked my order history because I was curious)
I do use a dishwasher so the majority of my stuff is not hand washed, but still. for all the pots and pans and things that can't be run in the dishwasher. in case you're wondering. two years of not thinking about buying dish soap!!
I am a longtime sufferer of contact dermatitis from heavy dishwashing days. I was always exposed t the chemical filled dishwater which would inevitably end up inside my gloves and all over my arms. This caused a very bad reaction on my hands and fingers which caused me to seek alternative dish soaps for my home. After buying and trying many bars and liquids and even making my own i think that the bullk box is worth every penny. The best part was the promotional buy one get one free box of imperfect bars. I go through a lot of dishes with my large family of six and expect this to last well into next year,
Love the quality and the clean this product provides. This is an easy swap for me!
Smells amazing
We love this soap. I bought it for its environmental benefits, which are amazing. It lasts a long time, cleans well, one of those rare perfect products.
I so wanted to like the block soap. I tried really hard to get used to it and ignore the mess. I found it very messy and also I didn’t think it did well on anything greasy. And the large block did not fit in the base that came in the starter kit. So I’m a little disappointed.
Hi Jilly, we are sorry to hear this didn't work out for you. If it's within the return period, you can initiate a return from your account when purchased from our site. Just scroll to the bottom of the site and click on the return policy page for the link to start your return. The large bar does fit in the bamboo soap holder, but you may need to rotate the side because it is not a perfect cube. Some sides are larger than others. It will fit on one of the sides in the holder perfectly.
I got the two for one which means I have soap for a looong time
Awesome products!
This is a great product. No more hassles with plastic jugs and bottles. The bar is an excellent degreaser. It's low tox nature is a plus, too!
