Clorox Green Works Review Summary

Clorox Green Works is one of the latest in green products, but made my Clorox. It is made from coconut, lemon and corn based products safe for the environment. It’s fresh clean scent, and ability to clean dirt and grease was appreciated by our reviewers. KidKansas tried it, certain that the light fresh scent meant it wasn’t working, but now he “ even clean around the pet bowls without fear of poisoning the animals with bleach or other harsh cleaners.” Mel4him says, “you would think that because it is made with 99% all natural ingredients that it wouldn't lather up, well, you’re wrong. It gives the best soapy suds perfect for cleaning up any mess.” However, some reviewers stated that while it cleans well, it doesn’t disinfect or remove stains, and occasionally left a residue. Overall, most reviewers were happy to have a green alternative for their general household cleaning. Read more cleaning product reviews to find everything from green to bleach free.

I started using Clorox Green Works about 3 months ago and at first was a little apprehensive because the scent is very mild. I grew up thinking if it didn't smell strong then it wouldn't clean properly. After all in my younger days my Mom used Pinesol, Bleach and many lye based products to clean in the... read full review »

I received a coupon for a free bottle of Greenworks from Clorox.  Since it was free, I thought I would try it.  I have tried it as a cleaner for the bathroom counter tops and in the kitchen. 

I am very disappointed with the performance.  I realize that other people have raved about how well it works,...

I was thinking green when I bought this product and  I do not do well with harsh fumes, but Clorox really must have been thinking of me when they made this product.  I thought with it being more earth friendly it wasn't going to work like I was going to want it to, but I was wrong.  I am short and well I can't see on top of the fridge so never really thought about it and the hubby pointed it out.  Hmmm, I thought this would be a great test for this product.  I would have taken pictures of the before and after, but it was sad when I got up on my step stool.  I had to tackle grease and dust. ...

With three children, a dog, a cat, and a husband, my carpets get spots all over.  I spray the all purpose cleaner on them, scrub a little, and BAM they're gone!  The smell is great!

I come from the old school of thought that in order for my house to be clean, it has to smell clean (i.e. strong chemical smells).  However, after trying Clorox Green Works Natural Glass & Surface Cleaner, I am now convinced that I can have a clean house without using harsh chemicals.

A confessed coupon mom, I didn't seek out to purchase Clorox Green Works until I received a coupon for a free product.  That was the best marketing plan that the Clorox company could initiate.  I was hooked the moment that I first tried this product.  It really does a good job cleaning and smells fresh and light,...

Kid Kansas and I had a bit of a conversation about this product, as I'd been wanting to try it, and he'd favorably reviewed it.

And so I bought it, and so I sneezed my brains out every time I used it. Apparently I'm a little sensitive to something in it.

That said, it performed well as a cleaning product I have used, so I have no complaints about it in that respect. I passed the remainder of the bottle on to my mother-in-law, who thinks it's terrific.

I tend to be a little sensitive to flowers and things in nature, so I wouldn't want this review to in any way deter someone else from giving Green Works...

  I love the idea of this product.  The whole "Go Green" aspect really drew me too it.  But I already have an ant problem.  Once cleaning with this product....and thying to spray the ant away....it only drew them closer.  I would go back after cleaning the counter the ants were just all over it.

I love to keep my house clean, however I do worry about the chemicals I use and am constantly looking for greener solutions to keep my house looking great.  The Clorox Green Works line is made with more planet friendly ingredients and still have cleaning power.  I really love the multipurpose spray because it works great on a variety of surfaces and really picks up dust and spills.  It also helps rid your counters of bacteria.  The kitchen and bathroom products work well and I feel better using these because they are more friendly to the environment.

I recently purchased Clorox Green Works Toilet Bowl Cleaner and I have to say that I do like it. It is thick, so it clings to the bowl, and keeps the bowl clean for a very long time.

I have always liked Clorox products, and now that they offer the Green Works line, I am even happier.

I have been reluctant to try the laundry detergent, only because of the cost. I like to save money whenever possible and the Green Works laundry detergent is relatively expensive, however, the other cleaning products seem to be about the same as others and I always look for sales and coupons to make them even more...

    As a college student I have entered a stage in my life where I am very dedicatd to being as eco-friendly as possible.  Because of this infatuation, I decided to purchase the Green Works all-purpose cleaner for my new apartment to try it out.  I was amazed at how clean my kitchen and bathroom were when I used the cleaner.  Sometimes when things are labeled as "green" or "eco-friendly" they do not do a great job at picking up the stains and dirt marks around the house.  This product did the job though!  It picked up the stains without a problem and without having to scrub away for a few... read full review »

I am all about going green lately and saw the Green Works cleaners at our local store . . . hadn't even heard of it before, but I trust the Clorox brand (I used to be a bleach-freak!).

I love this product and swear my mirrors are sparkling!!! I think the thing that I like best is that after you use the products, you don't feel as if you need to take a shower.  When I was a Windex and Clorox Clean-Up (with bleach) fanatic, I used to feel like I needed to get those cleaning odors and nasty residue off me before I held my babies or got into my clean sheets, but now, I just wash my hands after cleaning,...

too busy to make beds, a homeowner, a green thumb

We have been searching for over a year for something that would really work in our enclosed shower without killing us with the fumes.  We found it!!! This stuff really works great! My eighteen year old son cleans that bathroom and he was really impressed! And he hates cleaning! We live in a area with very hard water and heavy lime build up. Plus with 6 people using the same shower the soap scum really builds up.

Plus it is gentle enough on all the fancy tiles and grout we just put in.  At last we don't have to worry about harming ourselves or our remodeling!

I just finished off my first bottle of Clorox Greenworks. I thought I would give it a chance instead of my Seventh Generation cleaner. I was disappointed. Although Greenworks smells fantastic (like oranges) it always left a film on my countertops. Although I do admit that it works great on isolated grease spots. I went back to Seventh Generation, and when I cleaned my counters for the first time, a ton film and grime came off. Although I think Clorox had good intentions, their green line still doesnt live up to Seventh Generation.

I really like these products.  I have the toilet cleaner, bathroom cleaner, and all-purpose cleaner.  The best aspect of all these products is that they have a light and pleasant smell. I hate having to open my windows in the winter time to get the fumes of other products out of the house.  There are two downsides of these products, however: they don't disinfect, and they aren't the best at getting out stains.

This product caught my eye on the cleaning asile and I was interested in the "Green" label.  Everyone is starting to be more cautious about what products are put into the envinornment and I think this is great step in that direction.  It doesn't have that strong smell like most harse cleaners do so that is a plus for the product.

Enjoy!
