Everything you need to make the call - who each one is for, and who should skip it.
Go for it if you...
You're already a Sonett fan and trust European organic certifications.
You want a fragrance-free, dye-free concentrate that stretches further per bottle.
You're not bothered by SLS-related skin dryness — gloves or short wash sessions help.
You want the most ingredient-minimal, traditional soap available.
Multi-use matters — castile soap also works for hands, hair, dishes, laundry.
You're comfortable diluting concentrates for daily use.
The main thing to know
Sonett earns honest marks for ingredient transparency and a concentrate-format design, but SLS as the primary surfactant — combined with the absence of US certifications — drops its R3 score below glucoside-based competitors.
Dr. Bronner's Baby Unscented is the most traditional dish soap option on this list — saponified oils instead of synthetic surfactants. Some users find it requires more product or rinsing than synthetic-surfactant dish soaps. The 1:10 dilution is non-negotiable for best results.
Skip this if you...
You wash dishes daily and are sensitive to SLS drying out your hands.
You specifically need a US-recognized certification (EWG Verified, EPA Safer Choice, MADE SAFE).
You want a glucoside-based formula — Molly's Suds, Branch Basics, or Eco-Me score higher on that signal.
You want squeeze-and-go convenience — castile needs dilution to perform best.
Heavy grease is your daily challenge — synthetic surfactants like Molly's Suds may cut faster.
You don't want to mix dilutions — go ready-to-use with ATTITUDE or ECOS.
Neither of these quite what you're looking for?

Not necessarily. The overall score reflects how we weight those three pillars, but your priorities may differ. If you care most about safety, compare the safety scores directly. If budget drives your decision, the prices tell a clearer story. The "right" pick is the one that matches what matters most to your family.
