SKNet Australian Eco-Friendly Laundry Detergent Sheets

I received a box labelled Tomic, not SKnet, and that has none of the features that the product page photos and description has. Other reviewers have mentioned that this is Tomic not SKnet. My review was rejected by Amazon because I simply said that the product they sell and what you get are two different things. But they cannot reject my review here :)
 
 THINGS I LIKE
> The cardboard packaging, which is fully recyclable.  
> Perfect for travelling, and washing by hand or using a small load of laundry while travelling or camping.  
> It can be used with front and up loading machines.  
> I didn't have any skin sensitivity reaction.   
 
THINGS I DON'T LIKE 
> Their false advertising as this isn't Australian or eco-friendly. They've changed the photos on the product page since I bought this a few months ago, but check the photos of the product I received. 
> I used a whole sheet for my laundry and the clothing came out just OK.
> Peony scent? Not really. 
> There are 30 sheets breakable in two, supposedly for 60 laundry loads. However, if I have my washing machine fully loaded, I need a minimum of a full sheet or even one and a half sheets.   
 
IN SHORT
Handy to carry around and emergency washing, especially by hand. I won't use this in my washing machine and I will look for genuinely Aussie-made eco-friendly products.

Seymour's Stainless Steel Pegs (20 Pack)

I've had these pegs for a couple of months now with other brands similar metallic pegs.  I got tired of plastic pegs that break too easily and was looking for something environmentally friendly and durable. Being stainless steel it's important because they are meant to be more durable and rust-free. I never leave my pegs outside (whether plastic or not) unless I'm hanging my laundry and then put them bag indoors. If it starts to rain I put my clothes horse indoors. That being the case, my pegs are looking as they were when first came out of the box. I find disappointing the many reviews about the pegs becoming rusty because, because if that happens, they are just steel not 'stainless' steel. So, I will be careful not to leave my laundry outdoors even if there is the slight amount of rain falling.

KNALLA B&W Bag (40x25x47cm, 47 L)

This is a very good looking XL weightless plastic storage bag, that I use to put away my winter lining and mattress covers. The bag can be used to store laundry, or to put your recycled plastics, or when packing towels and linen if you move houses.  I love the cool geometric B&W pattern. It can be washed by hand. Maximum load is 10 kg, which is remarkable for such a light bag. The zips are secure and are still intact after 2-3 years of use.
