No, it doesn't smell great (it doesn't have a scent) and it is not glamorous but it got my dipes clean. My hemp diapers would be pretty stinky in the morning after being peed in all night but the rest of my dipes were fine. I have normal average water. I was swayed by all the rave reviews for Rockin' Green so I ordered some Classic Rock in the Motley Clean scent. It smells great and I was super psyched about the switch, but after the first time washing my daughter's diapers with it, she got really bad diaper rash. I kept using it for a couple of weeks and the rash got worse. Diaper rash cream was not helping and I didn't know what was going on. I use mostly breathable covers (only wool at night and mostly fleece during the day) so I had never had this problem. I suspected the detergent so I switched back to Charlie's Soap and the rash disappeared. I feel like I am the only one to have this problem. Anyone else out there notice their baby got a rash from this stuff? Laurie, you are the only one I have seen with this problem. Plus, my diapers don't smell any different than they did while using Charlie's Soap.

I never had this problem before I tried RG soap. I stopped and returned to my normal soap and the burn rashes has stopped. I just don't understand why it is not working for me. Stinkies were an issue, does not get my diapers clean at all. Basically, it is NOT working as all the claims and raves about it.

I think it made my dipes more stinky than before, and they repelled big time. I went to my local cloth diaper store and she recommended Tide Free, which seems to work for the repelling issues, but now my DD is getting a major rash from her prefolds, but not her pockets. I think I will give Rockin Green a try and see how her little bum likes it... Oh, and I would NOT recommend Charlie's to anyone!!!

I have been CD'ing for 6 months and found rave reviews of this product. At first I had it shipped to me, but just found it at a new local store called Cutie Poops and Bottoms in Orland Park, IL. Love that she has samples there of all the great scents. I think the cherry almond is my fave! I LOVE Rockin Green detergent. I have been CD’ing for 6 months and found rave reviews of this product.

I have used Allen's, & Charlie's and I like RG the best. My sink problem is no more and I have not had to strip my diapers once in 3 months. This reminds me...

I just ordered some samples last Friday, so funny this post should come up. I expect that my goodies will arrive today and I am so excited to try it! I have an old-school washer, but pretty hard water (in Phoenix), and some definite staining on my BG. I look forward to "rocking a soak" and seeing what kind of miracles might occur. Ha!

I had a regular washer before and it wasn't getting my clothes clean (before I started cd). I do rinse my poopy diapers so maybe that is the difference. I sprinkle baking soda on or soak in water with baking soda first, do a cold rinse, then wash warm. I use soapnuts or pc free- I find the soapnuts don't get the stains of bf poo quite as well. And I occasionally use vinegar (in the softener compartment). I have never had any stink issues. I have heard it is important to leave the washer door open when not in use.
