Review on 🌿 Clear 25 oz Sapadilla All-Purpose Cleaner Concentrate with Rosemary and Peppermint - Biodegradable by Glenda Vollan

Revainrating 5 out of 5

what is this magic?

I try to keep most things in my house as natural as possible and my favorite cleaning product is diluted with vinegar. For really hard stuff I mix it with baking soda (such a treat). The problem is that no matter how carefully I clean, residue always remains. I even wipe it off with a clean rag and somehow it always leaves a mark, laughing at me and my futile attempts to rid the kitchen of it. When I saw this product I couldn't find the ingredients listed on the Revain page. . I could only find what wasn't in it, and that worries me when my house is full of kids with the occasional allergy. I went to the site and, after (not very) intensive detective work, found an ingredient list. It was not bad; nothing too crazy. The good thing about the Sapadilla website is that they show the ingredients and then what it is/what it's used for. It's not something I'd bet on drinking, but there's nothing that would harm my kids while cleaning (of course I won't let them drink that). Knowing that there is nothing wrong with not gassing and nothing poisonous, I boldly ordered this to be attempted. Fast forward to tonight: I clean the kitchen every night and then bake sourdough bread the next day. Tonight I took my solution of this all purpose cleaner and cleaned the area where I am preparing the dough. I noticed that while wiping down the counter it got very clean. Oddly clean. Then I wiped my stove. And it got weirdly clean too. Everything was much cleaner today. And let's face it: it smells WAY better than vinegar. So after cleaning the stove, I started cleaning the front of the oven. Then into the oven. And then I fell into the rabbit hole of cleaning the whole kitchen. There's no more baby sauce on the cabinets, the dishwasher is sparkling, the countertops are spotless, and the sink is sparkling. There are no deposits, everything is clean. And it smells good. When I say it smells good, I'm not talking about a strong smell, I'm talking about a subtle, mild, pleasant smell. It's fleeting. I am very sensitive to strong odors from gases and chemicals and it just pleases my soul. In the end I decided I really liked it. This makes the cleaning less of an "elbow grease and weird smells" and more of a "wow that smells good I think I'll clean everything" event. Now my kitchen is clean, smells nice and I look forward to seeing what other products Sapadilla makes. Ahhhh... I still have to bake this bread.
