Review on MURPHY Oil Soap Wood Cleaner, Original, Value Pack - 3 x 32 fl oz bottles (Pack of 3) by Ramon Hood

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Works well and smells good!

We recently replaced our carpets with hardwood floors and wanted to keep them clean. I am sensitive to chemicals and odors; I prefer a purely natural product. This cleanser is perhaps the closest I've got - it's 98% natural and contains a variety of botanical ingredients. I'll admit I was a bit skeptical about buying it since there's still synthetic in it, but so far I'm happy with it. I use it as instructed: I dilute the soap with a quarter cup of warm water and put it in a spray bottle. This makes it easy for me to crash into a tree. Then I mop the area with my turbo mop. Depending on how much I use, I sometimes have to switch pads before I've finished the area, but it's not a big deal. In most cases I can get rid of all the junk with just one application. Easy to use as no rinsing is required. The smell is mild too - no need to hold your breath or choke on the fumes. Compared to what I've seen in stores, this cleaner is affordable too! I got three packs for about $10. Each of the bottles is also quite large - it will probably take me some time to go through everything (which I absolutely can't complain about). I've only used it a couple of times so I'm not sure if or not it will damage hardwood floors in the long run, but from what I've seen it seems gentle (maybe it will be bad if You don't dilute it properly?). However, in my experience, the product gives a nice shine and doesn't make it slippery at all. So overall I would recommend it. It's not a groundbreaking product, but it gets the job done. Extra points for being 98% natural.
