What customers say
Customers overwhelmingly praise Simple Green Concentrate for its exceptional versatility and powerful degreasing ability across nearly all cleaning tasks. Its concentrated formula delivers significant perceived value, as users note one bottle lasts a long time, making it highly economical. This strong performance fosters high brand loyalty. The primary drawback cited is the signature scent, which many find overwhelmingly strong for indoor use. A smaller concern involves potential discoloration on specific materials like untreated aluminum if dilution is incorrect. Overall, the consensus confirms Simple Green is a reliable, effective cleaning staple for both professional and home use.
Know before you buy
Because this is a concentrate, you can adjust the strength based on the soil level. For heavy-duty degreasing, use a stronger ratio, while light dusting or glass cleaning requires significantly more water. Always refer to the label instructions for specific dilution guidelines to ensure optimal performance.
Simple Green is versatile, but it is always best to test a small, inconspicuous area first. While it is non-toxic and bleach-free, highly porous surfaces or specific finishes may react differently to concentrated cleaners.
Yes, it is compatible with many pressure washers and extraction machines. Ensure you follow your machine manufacturer's guidelines regarding the use of concentrated cleaners and adjust your dilution ratio accordingly to avoid excessive foaming.
No, the formula is designed to be a safer alternative to harsh solvents and does not contain the heavy, synthetic fragrances often found in traditional cleaners. It provides a clean, neutral result without lingering chemical odors.
The formula is non-toxic and biodegradable, making it a safer choice than many traditional degreasers that rely on harsh chemicals. However, as with any cleaning product, it should be stored out of reach and surfaces should be rinsed thoroughly if they are areas where pets or children frequently eat or play.
Not at all. The USDA Certified Biobased label confirms that the product is made from renewable biological ingredients, but it is formulated to match or exceed the performance of traditional petroleum-based cleaners. It is widely used in professional settings, including food processing plants, where high-performance cleaning is required.
