Has anyone tried Koh eco-friendly cleaner?

I keep seeing ads for this and am very tempted. I like the fact it’s refillable so reducing plastic waste, and the ‘one product for everything’ idea. But... does it actually work? Would be grateful if anyone has any views (or alternative suggestions?)

I’ve seen this and agree it looks good. I’ve read though that you have to use dry cloths so you must need an awful lot of micro fibre cloths on the go.

I haven't tried it but my sister loves it and got my mum onto it. She uses it for everything.

The only negative thing my mum has brought up is that it must not lather up much and she is one of those people for who bubbles=clean so it took a while for her to get used to the idea that the floor was actually cleaned properly even though she didn't have suds etc

Me! Delivered today, so far impressed. Spent this evening cleaning gloss kitchen units, fingerprints on woodwork. Really impressed so far. Love that you can use it on anything.

I just ordered some on Friday so hoping for good things!

killpop · 09/03/2019 15:25

Ordered some yesterday. (Did you know you can get £5 off by using a referral link?(the referrer also get £5 of credit) Feel free to PM me if you'd like a code.)
A friend of mine who has issues with strength and mobility posted a picture of a quick wipe on her oven door which totally swayed it for me!! I'm looking forward to trying it out when it arrives.

Is it true what a PP said about using dry cloths only?

PenCreed · 09/03/2019 16:47

I've just got some, and tried it out on my oven door (which was, er, a bit manky). The diamond sponges are great and it's come up really well so far. Interior of the oven is next on the list. It is a bit weird not having a smell or lather, but compared to Oven Pride that's a bonus! I can inhale while cleaning the oven without feeling like I'm simultaneously cleaning my sinuses out.

It's really good for scuzzy/greasy jobs. Oven door and shower grime. It worked really well on the shower trap.

Shit for cleaning glass/mirrors as it leaves it really smeary.

NEVER use it on natural stone or carpet or fabric ( despite it saying it is suitable for all surfaces...it isn't)

It isn't all that eco-friendly (micro -fibres are killing marine life)

GnarlyOldGoatDude · 16/03/2019 15:30

@killpop can I PM you for a referral code please? Am going to take the plunge and order some. Has been appearing on my fb feed for weeks now!

killpop · 16/03/2019 16:04

Hiya. Have PMed you back. Thanks Smile

killpop · 16/03/2019 16:07

To update... I received mine after a few days and am amazed by how well it works. I have to pace myself so have only done it on my oven doors so far (as well as kitchen surfaces) but the difference is amazing. Am hoping to tackle the grout in my bathroom tomorrow.

Has anyone tried Koh eco-friendly cleaner?
GnarlyOldGoatDude · 16/03/2019 17:06

Thanks @killpop! Glad to hear you’re pleased with it Smile

CarlGrimesMissingEye · 16/03/2019 18:25

Used mine on my oven and plastics today. Delighted on both counts.

BikeRunSki · 16/03/2019 18:31

Don’t they ship from Australia though?

killpop · 16/03/2019 19:00

Don't think so, it arrived in 2-3 days.

GnarlyOldGoatDude · 16/03/2019 19:28

From their FB site, the UK stuff is made in UK, and the Ozzie stuff in Oz. It’s next day delivery with parcelforce judging by most of the reviews.
I’m sadly excited by a cleaning fluid. That’s really not good Grin

Sunonthepatio · 16/03/2019 23:39

What is in it? Some cleaners are a bit iffy, from a safety viewpoint.

Georgeofthejungle · 16/03/2019 23:42

Following as I was thinking of starting a similar thread!

FredaFox · 17/03/2019 01:05

Interested in comments.I read some reviews but they were very mixed. The main ingredient is water?
I am tempted though

SunnyTikka · 17/03/2019 01:22

Killpop, i’m Going for it as we are moving house and I have to clean this one massively! Could I have a referral code please ?

GnarlyOldGoatDude · 17/03/2019 11:23

I’ve ordered some and will update with my verdict too!

killpop · 17/03/2019 12:23

Hi SunnyTikka, have PMed you

killpop · 17/03/2019 12:28

Can't see a list of contents/ingredients on the box. I'd assume it'll be on the Koh website (sorry am on my phone so not easy to link)

OhHolyJesus · 17/03/2019 13:34

Yes and I recommend it x

GnarlyOldGoatDude · 17/03/2019 13:45

From their adverts I think it’s got very dilute potassium hydroxide in it. They are apparently approved by the British allergy council. The stuff is completely odourless too (can you tell I’ve been dithering over the adverts for a long time??)
