I'm using bamboo TP now, thanks to Grove.

I've been thrilled with my Grove.co membership from 2020 to present (2023 July).

I love supporting their mission of plastic-free and natural.
All their products are cruelty-free, non-toxic, no animal testing, etc.

They have their own product lines of cleaning and personal care items, as well as my favorite brands, like Dr. Bronner's, Murphy's, Seventh Generation, Method, etc.

It's easy to choose which items are on monthly subscription and which items are just one-time purchase.
I haven't had any bad experiences, I wonder if all the bad reviews are from people who just wanted to get the free gifts for signing up and didn't pay attention or read that it's a subscription service, which was very transparent.
I voluntarily signed up for the annual VIP membership, which unlocks free shipping for much cheaper than Prime.
If I can add a feature request: I miss being able to have some products shipped bi-monthly or quarterly. This former feature was advantageous for Grove as well, when I was buying on recurring subscription, I often accidentally over-purchased and would stash away extras until needed, but now I only keep a small number of essentials on subscription and just wait until I run out of other items to order more.

Tip for consumers:
Pay Attention - If you don't want something on monthly subscription, make sure you uncheck that box.

Products used:
Shampoo, Conditioner, Body Wash, Face Wash, Hand Soap, Glass Soap Dispensers, Laundry Powder, Oxygen Whitener, Sunscreen, Mosquito Repellent, Vitamins and Supplements, Non-Plastic Humble Co. Dental Floss Picks, Dishwasher Detergent, Countertop Cleaner, Glass spray bottles, Tile Cleaner, Lip Balm, Lotion, Candles and Air fresheners, Dish Sponges and Brushes, Tile and Toilet Scrubbing Brushes, etc.

This is my second order from Grove and I'm pretty impressed with the products. They're not...

The products were very good; but, my reason for 5 stars is solely based on the immediate response...
