Customer Reviews for Simple Green 1 Gal. Concentrated All-Purpose Cleaner

Odorless, cleans just about everything. The only non-toxic, all around cleaner you need.

Simple Green All-Purpose Cleaner is effective for most cleaning jobs and pre-treating laundry stains. It works well on kitchen counter tops. Cleaning power is based on surfactants (detergents, foaming agents). It cleans greasy stove tops, but is somewhat less effective than degreaser sprays containing solvents. Recommended.

I've used it for years it always does a great job, we don't use anything else.

Cleans things well & is more enviromentally safe for my septic & pets than some other cleaners

I will bet that there are a lot of people out there like myself who often hear people describe the "many" uses for products such as duct tape and WD-40. This Simple Green product, in my opinion, falls in the same "league" of those products--and then some! For me to "attempt" to list most of the uses here would be a bit much to place on the reader of this Simple Green review; however, if you do want to read up on the vast amount of its applications, I suggest that you enter the Simple Green website URL address of => Simplegreen.com/cleaning--tips/ . That web address will populate a "wealth" of knowledge offering insight into the proper applications of Simple Green and the many jobs that it can perform. I even read recently how auto detailers use this product on car interiors to achieve that fresh smell. I purchased these mini mason jars, felt, and matching lids with openings and I place that container (with the Simple Green filling the mini mason jar about a 1/4 of the way) and I use this configuration as my vehicle's air freshener. I also use Simple Green on a regular basis to keep my kitchen trash can and even the toilet and my washer smelling fresh. Let's not forget to mention that Simple Green is non-toxic, biodegradable, and it is concentrated. This Simple Green gallon size container is some value--price wise! Perhaps, there are other Simple Green users out there who have come up with clever uses of this great product that others haven't even thought of yet.

I chose the 1:30 dilution strength of the Simple Green concentrated all-purpose cleaner to see how it compares to removing everyday dirt and germs from the kitchen and bathrooms; it's just as effective as the other concentrated cleaners I used in the past. I does really well removing hard water stains from glass doors, limescale on faucets, and burnt food stains from a gas cooktop and wall oven. I was hoping that I could use this cleaner like the other Simple Green products and not have to wear gloves. Unfortunately since it was still harsh on my hands (i.e. dryness and peeling the next day), I'll probably wear gloves next time using the diluted product. In addition, I would suggest using it in a well ventilated area; next time I might use a ventilation mask because the fragrance (which smelled like a combo of thyme, cardamon, sandalwood, and maybe rosemary) was still too strong using the 1:30 dilution strength.

EXCELLENT CLEANER FOR OUR DECK, PICNIC TABLE, HOT TUB, POOL, FRONT CONCRETE STEPS AND THE DECK FURNITURE. AT THE SPECIAL DEAL RATE OFF ON-HALF OFF- I WISH I HAD CONSIDERED STOCKING UP SINCE THE STUFF LASTS FOREVER- A LITTLE CONCENTRATE ADDED TO WATER BUCKET GOES A LONG WAY!

There are a lot of cleaning solutions on the market that are labeled as "all-purpose", but Simple Green is by far the best one out there. It manages to conquer the majority of messes that you use it on. One thing that is really nice about this is that it comes as a concentrated formula, not diluted at all. The bottle lasts a lot longer than similar cleaners that come diluted already, so you are not paying for water. This also makes it possible to dilute it to the strength that you need to tackle lots of heavy duty tasks that would take forever, or dilute it down for daily household cleaning. The lemon scent is nice, but it does not linger for a long time. It performed very well cleaning in the garage, bathroom, and kitchen. Under the "general use" dilution, the cleaner had no adverse affects on stone countertops (granite in kitchen, marble in bathroom) or chipboard countertops in the garage and shop. I also used it for spot clean up on some oak hardwood flooring, but did not use it as a mop solution. It dealt with many different types of messes, and as long as you give it ample time to work on the mess and do it's magic it works great. I would not use it to replace certain cleaning chemicals, like bleach, but it is a great all-around component to have everywhere, and it works great. It will replace many cleaners and save space on the shelves in both the shop and at home. This cleaner definitely is a great, above average cleaning solution.

The Simple Green 128 oz. Lemon Scent All-Purpose Cleaner is the easiest and most efficient cleaner to use all over your home in every room. The dilution instructions are very simple - heavy duty cleaning = less water and light cleaning = more water mixed in with cleaner. Has a very fresh scent - no hint of bleach smell, and no hard scrubbing required even for the hardest jobs.

I bought this to clean the roof on my mobile home and it didn't work as well as I expected. I've used it before on many other things and it's always cleaned great. Might have been the wrong product for my roof.

This Simple Green cleaner is the lemon scented version but it is every bit as good as the normal Simple Green cleaner. This is a one gallon bottle of concentrated Simple Green so you can dilute it or use it as is for heavily soiled items. The instructions have three different dilution ratios depending on how much cleaning strength you need. 1:1 dilution is for heavy duty cleaning, 1:10 dilution is used for general cleaning, and 1:30 dilution is for light cleaning. Using the formula for light cleaning, you could make 30 gallons of cleaner out of this one bottle. This cleaner is non-toxic and biodegradable so it's safe if you have kids or pets around. The scent of this cleaner is a light, fresh scent. I'm a fan of Simple Green and I like this version as well. I would definitely recommend this cleaner.

Been using simple green forever, glad they have other fragrances to choose from. Can't beat this cleaner and it's made in the USA.

Used this product numerous times for all sorts of applications. From general clean-up to degreasing it works well. Some of the tougher jobs require a second use. Just applied a mixed amount to my pressure washer for a tough clean-up job removing fish from my kayak. Leaves a clean smell and washes offr fairly easily with no soapy residue. Next job the oil covered tractor engine!

From degreaser to house cleaning, this is the best proiduct for cleaning around the hoouse and shop.

Yep. It's green. Works well enough.

Great cleaning product

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I enjoyed using this product while cleaning. It doesn't have a strong smell which I liked. It worked well at cleaning the grease on my stove and counters and didn't leave any residue.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This stuff is great! The concentrated power is real! It only takes a small amount diluted with water to clean a big mess. Stains come out with ease. I sprayed some on a stubborn stain in my toilet and let it sit, came back and voilà, GONE!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Works great, smells great, and cleans nicely. The only thing I don’t like about it is that it’s concentrated so I have to have another pray bottle to mix water in.

Did not like this product

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Simple Green is a super effective cleaner that smells fresh! A little goes a long way, so it is great value for the money. It is versatile and can be used on everything from floors to counters and more!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It worked for me cleaning my bathroom and kitchen and I decided to dilute it a bit so the scent wasn’t too overpowering. I love the packaging and it helps that my favorite color is green.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I demolished the yucks on my kids' stool and my garage door. The dirt wiped off super easy, and the scent is not overpowering. The bottle is durable, and the nozzle has a turn lock to prevent small kids from spraying by accident.

Works well, gets rid of grease.
