Does anyone use Melaleuca products? We are about to sign up as customers and I'm wondering if anyone has had experience with them. They appear to be completely eco-friendly.

Thanks!

Sounds like a pyramid scheme to me. You buy the products and sell the products to friends and encourage the friends to sell the products to their friends, a pyramid.

Most of the products are really good stuff and work very well. Used them for about two years, but have found other sources that don't require a minimum purchase each month. Knew a few people that made money doing this, but very few.

Yes, I suppose it is a pyramid scheme, however, I have no intention of trying to enlist my friends...what does make me? A dead end? lol

My neighbor, who I've known for nearly 4 years never mentioned that she had a "green house" and used the products until I invited her to a health lecture.

On the way, we talked about the food changes that my family had made and she shared how effective her green products were in keeping her and her son's allergies and eczema from flairing up. She never once offered any information, until I asked for it. She doesn't really use it as a business, either--she just really believes in the products.

I'm really only wondering about the products...not the chance that I might be taken for a ride. Thanks for your concern, but I'm not planning on selling anything, just buying stuff.

Thanks again....

I've also been using their products for about 3 years now. Love the products, and I don't sell anyhting. Tried torecommend to a few people at first (and some signed on) but I like the vitamins and laundry products mostly. I researched the company and product claims and found little to concern me as a consumer.

Hope this helps!

Happy Gardening!!

Yeah, I'm just not seeing anything negative about them, except for the pyramid thing...but even that is not really a pushy thing.

For instance, if a friend wants to sign up, I can sign them up and they only pay a small fee, in order to purchase the products at a better rate, much like one of those wholesale clubs like Sam's and Costco. I like that I can help them get started without having to push the business part. We've avoided those pyramid things for years, as we are not people who would take advantage of friendships to make money. I won't even go to those "parties" where they sell cookware and jewelry.

I can't wait to become green. The more I think about it all, the more convicted I become to change our little piece of the world for the better....

Thanks again for the testimonial....
