Shout Color Catcher


Details:  The Color Catcher traps loose dyes and dirt released during the wash cycle.  At the end of the wash, the dye and dirt come out on the Color Catcher sheet, not  your clothes.  Safe for use at all temperatures and on all fabrics.  You can mix whites, lights and colors without worrying a bout color runs.  No need to separate clothes by color.  Check out their website for more great details and ways to use these.  


 My Review:  Being empty nesters our laundry has significantly decreased.  Therefore, to maximize the best use of my water consumption that is extremely high to pay for, I sometimes will mix my laundry...especially light and darker towels.  I always pay for it in the end when my white towels come out reddish or no longer white and bright.


I received a sample product of the Shout Color Catcher sheet and instantly used it when I did a mixed batch of towels.  I was so impressed.  I did put my not so bright looking white towels in with the lighter brown towels and darker red towels.  My white towels (that went into the wash not looking so great) came out whiter and brighter.  Not 100% perfectly white, but a definite bigger difference afterwards.


I only wish I had purchased a box of these things when my kids were here for Christmas and I was doing their laundry.  I'm pretty sure they mix their laundry too when I see their whites that look greyish now. 

Pros:   This is a great product that seems to do exactly what it says it will do.  I think the big test will be for those whose white laundry looks greyish to try this product and let us know if you saw improvement.

Cons:  My $1 off coupon expired for this product before I actually tried it.  Wish I had tried it sooner to see the benefit and then I would have made sure I used my coupon.  Sheets don't do well after one use.


  My Ratings:  A thumbs  up for a great product and whiter and brighter laundry.

  1. I was doing laundry for my children that were visiting over the holidays. I was surprised at how gray their whites were. They save money by doing all laundry together at the laundry mat. When I used one of these color catcher sheets it helped quite a bit to improve their whites. It was amazing how well this worked. They were sold on it too. They'll be using this from now on.
