Product Reviews of Method Daily Shower Spray, Ylang-Ylang Formula, 28-Ounce Bottles (Pack of 8)
Product Review: Yea, it's got a strong smell but it's also a great product
Summary: 5 Stars
I can understand the other reviewers comments about the smell of this product. When I first sprayed it I thought I had made a mistake but I do agree with a couple other reviewers when they said that you get used to the smell. . .and it is, I think, a pleasant smell which does remind me of being in a spa. I do usually keep the overhead fan on for awhile too since my husband showers after me and it's usually too steamy for me to see the mirror.
We just put an addition on our home including a new master bathroom with a tiled shower. We haven't shelled out the cash for the glass door yet so I just have a clear shower curtain. I spray this on the tile walls, floor and then the shower curtain after my husband gets out of the shower every day. We have hard water but when I check the shower curtain after it has dried there have not been little to no water spots. I've been using the product consistently for 2 months and I just bought more.
Product Review: Ylang Ylang Scent...Is It For You?...Great Product....Also Sold In Singles
Summary: 5 Stars
Okay so first things first, what the heck is "Ylang Ylang"?
Here's a couple of excerpts from Wikipedia(free online encyclopedia)
"Ylang-ylang ) (ee-lahng ee-lahng) Cananga odorata, is a small but beautiful flower of the Canaga tree. It is a fast-growing tree that exceeds 5 meters per year and attains an average height of 12 meters. It grows in full or partial sun, and prefers the acidic soils of its native rainforest habitat. The leaves are long, smooth and glossy and prefers the acidic soils of its native rainforest habitat. The flower is greenish yellow (rarely pink), curly like a starfish, and yields a highly fragrant essential oil. ......The fragrance of ylang-ylang is rich and deep with notes of rubber and custard, and bright with hints of jasmine and neroli."(Another one we may have to look yp)
There is much more about the plant and it's uses there, just enter Ylang Ylang into google and go to the Wikipedia definition.
Maybe someday technology will be so advanced that there will be some sort of scratch and sniff so we could smell the product being sold(wasn't there some sort of aroma cinema back in the 60's?), in the meantime these customer reviews will have to help you make up your mind. Of course, if you find it in a store you can sneak a sniff. Some people like it and some don't.I am one of those who like it very much. To me it is a slightly sweet, distinctive but gentle scent, that makes the bathroom smell fresh and clean, flowery, but I did not find it overpowering. In any case way better then any of those scented sprays that are meant to cover up odor, but usually wind up choking me, and it is a big improvement on the harsh shower sprays.
How does it work?....It works wonderfully. I have a small bathroom with for what it's worth a fan, but no window. I have been using this product for more then a year, have never had one problem with mold, mildew, soap scum or any other hard to clean gunk anywhere including the bath mat, shower curtain and liner. I have never had to scrub at all and my tub stays really clean,cutting back on regular cleansing. Other people in my apartment building have not been so lucky.
I also like that all the ingredients are biodegradable, naturally derived and never tested on animals.
Ingredients:purified water, scale removers, soap scum dissolver(plant derived),naturally derived surfactant(corn),performance enhancer(natural minerals),fragrance oils, preservative(less than 0.1%).
I'm guessing the fragrance oils is where the Ylang Ylang comes in, and I hope I've gotten them all right. The writing on the label was a little small for my eyes.
The spray bottle can be used as a fine mist, or direct squirt, which will probably be helpful in dissolving old stuff already there. I spray the mist all over,including directly onto my curtain and liner, and don't have to run for cover knowing that the ingredients are safe, and don't make me gag. The product s clear and colorless.
My advice would be to try just one bottle, before investing in this case if you are concerned you may not like the scent. Right now I did find it available here at Method Daily Shower Cleaner, Ylang Ylang Scent, 28 fl oz. But I have to say, this multi-pack is a really good deal.
I enjoy many of the Method brand line of household cleaners as well as their line of personal products, I especially like the shower gelmethod Body Wash, Mango Mint, Case Pack, Six - 15 Ounce Bottles (90 Ounces), even though I have to use a little more to make a good lather. See my review for more details.
Happy shopping....Laurie
another "green" product I have found works good(although a little expensive is:Ecover Natural Rinse Aid 16 fl. oz.
Product Review: been using this for a long time
Summary: 5 Stars
About 3 years ago, I did a major bath remodel with a huge ceramic tile and glass block shower (my dream bathroom), and I did not want my shower to ever show soap scum or mildew, so I tried this product, (was using other method products and loved them) and I have never used anything else since. It is great...now, its not going to remove soap scum/mildew that has been building for awhile and is layered up...you are going to have to scrub that and use some elbow grease, but once your shower is clean, this is THE product to use...especially if you did not enjoy the scrubbing and elbow grease part. It will last a long time, (I wish amazon offered the big refill bottle, less plastic waste), and I pray that method never discontinues this product. Its fast, smells great, and is a great value, if used as directed. Oh, I forgot to mention, I owned a professional home cleaning service, and the Method products work better than any of the commercial products I used during the years that I owned this business and cleaned about 20 houses a day.Product Review: don't see any results
Summary: 1 Stars
I've never used a daily shower cleaner before - I never wanted to use that much chemicals. So I thought this one, being enivronmentally friendly, would be worth a try. I'm almost at the end of my first bottle & I can't say that my shower stays any cleaner than if I did not use anything at all.
A couple of qualifiers on the above statement:
- I have a cleaning lady who comes every 2 weeks & I do absolutely nothing to clean the shower in between her visits. I thought that using this between her visits would make a visible difference in cleanliness. I can't see any difference. Maybe our shower just does not get dirty enough between thorough cleanings for a daily product to make sense.
- My shower had some hard water stains from before the cleaning lady's time that nothing has been able to get rid of. This product didn't make a dent in them either, but I think that might have been asking too much.
- typically my husband showers in the morning & I shower before bed. We only used this daily cleaner after my husband's shower because the bathroom is next to the master bedroom & the smell is too strong for us to want to smell it all night. Using the cleaner only once daily might have lessened it's effectiveness.
Regarding the smell - it is not unpleasant, just much too strong. Our master bath is upstairs & you can smell it from the front door while the product is still wet. I am extremely sensitive to odors & typically buy unscented products whenever possible, so don't let my opinion influence your decision too much.
Bottom line: If you are going to try this product buy one bottle first to try it out before investing in a case of it - I'm sure glad that I did.
Product Review: eco-friendly shower spray works well
Summary: 4 Stars
The spray works well and I couldn't find it locally, so I bought two cases through Amazon. I later discovered it for sale at Targets and it was significantly less expensive. I also discovered that Target had refills available, which would be a bigger savings yet.
