The capsule dissolves leaving your spray ready to use.Very effective in the kitchen.I’ve ordered the antibac version to try as well. Don’t think I’ll be going back to buying full bottles anytime soon.Plus sides: helping environment and taking soooooo little space in my cupboard. 😊

5.0 out of 5 stars Clean well and smell great

Really good value for money compared to buying these individually or other branded cleaners from the supermarket. They're really easy to use, they make far less mess than similar products where you too concentrated liquid into a bottle then dilute it, the whole pod goes in and dissolves in a few shakes. These will definitely save on a lot of plastic bottles, this also means more space in the cupboard if you like having spares in the house. They smell really good too, I no longer have trouble breathing caused by the chemical sprays I used to use and the smell lingers too which made a very nice change. I'll definitely be ordering these again

4.0 out of 5 stars Smell great, work well but requires a bit more elbow grease!

I'm very happy with these so far. The general use one smells lovely and seems to work well. The kitchen degreaser has a traditional kitchen cleaner citrus scent and it works, but not as well as the chemical filled ones I'm used to. I just gave the sink a second spray and scrub after the first and all was well. A small price to pay for such a planet friendly cleaning product. Plus they also provide stickers for the bottles which is so helpful. Will definitely re-purchase when I run out.

5.0 out of 5 stars A great solution to cleaning products whilst being eco friendly.

I have re-ordered this product time and time again. Such a great solution for the eco conscious trying to reduce their impact on the planet. Great price, easy to use, long lasting and quick delivery. Ordering this product to keep your home clean couldn't be easier.

This is lasting ages, and works really well. Smells great too. I love that it’s eco friendly as this is better for the environment but also for us, as we’re consuming less chemicals. Love it!

I bought these because we use the shower spray daily and to buy like this is cheaper than the spray in bottles. It also saves on plastic, so that's a good thing too!

3.0 out of 5 stars No labels in home home cleaning kit.

Home Cleaning Bundle - 3 starIf you do want new bottles, I strongly advise you obtain the new style design Ocean Saver branded bottles from your local supermarket as they both look nicer, and appear to have a better spray mechanism function than the old style Ocean Savers ones currently sold on Bolo. My experience with these cleaners was pretty mixed. The floor cleaner is the star of this range imho with the bathroom cleaner not worth bothering with.I purchased this pod refill only set as I am spring cleaning my elderly mother's house for something to do with myself while she recovers from a fall. As I use up her old non-eco products, I am refilling with these little pods. After my cleaning blitz, I had used up several Cif, Astonish, Dettol, and Asda-branded 750ml cleaner bottles, which incidentally have decent spray mechanisms, so they were ideal for refilling and relabelling once properly rinsed out.That's where I hit a major snag with this set - the total absence of any nicely printed product labels! I am NOT happy about this because it's a H&S issue, and it has left me scrambling back to mine for a Sharpie pen to label all Mum's old bottles. I can only presume Ocean Savers intended this set of pods to be sold only in conjunction with their own expensive, ready-labelled bottles only. Hardly the green solution when most people have several empties just waiting to be refilled under their kitchen sinks already, and nor is it the cost-effective solution when we are in the middle of a COLC.I had chosen this brand because they are easily obtainable in the supermarket so if she liked them, she'd easily be able to buy them again once she is better. Tescos even does its own brand cheaper copycat version of the Kitchen, bathroom, antibac, and multi-purpose pods. Tbh had I known of the lack of labels with this set, I'd have bought the Tescos 75p pods instead of these from Bolo.Kitchen Cleaner - This cleaner works well for the daily wipe down of the kitchen to remove fresh grease splashes and cooking spills. I wouldn't use it for a deep clean like a start or end of tenancy scrub down, though, as it's not got quite enough oomph for that. It dissolves nice and quickly in under 5 mins, so it is ready to use almost immediately. For sheer deep cleaning oomph, I think both the ecofamily kitchen tablet & Spruce multi-purpose powder refill sachet are more effective but both are more expensive. The lemon scent is mild enough not to interfere with your appetite. The upside of this product is that the larger 750ml rather than the usual 500ml makes it much more cost effective.Bathroom cleaner.I do like that you get 750 quantities, making it a better value than many eco-cleaning refills. Sadly this is like cleaning with pink water only. I trialled this on my own bathroom, which was already fairly clean, and found it to be pretty hopeless. To be fair, I think the same of SMOL bathroom cleaner tablets, too. We have soft water but use solid shampoo and soap, so we want something capable of dealing with soap scum. I'll be sticking with my ecofamily or homethings refill tablets for this daily task, & using the new non eco friendly Zoflora bathroom cleaner for deep cleans. Ocean Savers let themselves down with this product, which having used the laundry and dishwasher products previously and been impressed, I can honestly say the bathroom is really letting the range down. It bady needs some reformulation if it is to match the standard of the rest of the range.Anti-bac—This is a lovely, fresh scent that leaves surfaces smelling lovely and fresh. (It also seems pretty much identical to the Tesco own-brand pod cleaner refill, which is only 75p.) It is comparable in use to the new Zoflora pods (£1.70 each) and the Must Have Ideas Ylang Ylang pods(75p) & might be nice to use when I fancy a switch up in scents.Multi-purpose - lavender is rather lovely in the bedrooms, and anywhere you might feel like relaxing.I've reviewed the floor cleaner separately below.The kitchen and floor cleaners will deffo be re-ordered the jury is still out on whether I bother with the other 3 at the moment. IF I do, the lack of labels in this set means that I'm more likely to pick them up in Tescos where the cost of these 5 cleaners is currently £6.25 using a clubcard, or £1.25 per pod.------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Bulk pack Floor Cleaners review 5 star.- I use one of these pods in my empty Method rhubarb floor cleaner bottle, as it's just the right size for dilution. Just as effective both in cleaning power and with just as nice a scent as Method, but each bottle of Ocean Savers floor cleaner costs approximately £1.80 instead of Method's minimum of £3.25 a throw. (Ocean Savers works out even cheaper at approx £1.50 if like me, you get it on subscription!) This is quite a saving, and I still get my nicely scented rhubarb floors in spite of the COLC :)I use it further diluted from the old Method container into my spray mop for that quick daily squish and swipe that every household containing kids & pets requires. A direct squirt onto the floor from the method bottle for any really stubborn stains. The surfaces it gets used on are as follows, vinyl, ceramic tile, laminate, parquet wood flooring, so it really is versatile.It cleans really well, which matters as ours is a dog & mud loving household, and smells wonderful. Absolutely the star of this range imho.It is pet-safe, & non-toxic, which is very important for us.It is manufactured in the UKIt is plastic-free so ticks my desire to be sustainable and reduce our use of single-use plastics.It actually cleans properly, which is very important because life is too short to deal with an icky, sticky kitchen or bathroom floor.Vegan which is important to some people.I alternate this cleaner with the ecofamily pink grapefruit tablets, and homethings pods simply because I enjoy a change of scent from time to time, particularly as I despise housework but have found myself having to clean two homes due to my elderly mother's poor health. Anything that motivates me to get the job done helps, and this smells lovely.The pods are packed in individual boxes, each containing a nice big label for legal reasons. The labels mean you can just reuse any correctly sized container you already have lying about at home, provided of course you rinse it out properly first.Storage—Keep the refill pods in a dry place, well out of the reach of children, pets, and vulnerable adults due to their concentrated nature. They take up very little space so it's nice to have enough in stock so as to be sure you won't run out.Each pod takes about 15 minutes to dissolve in the correct amount of cold tap water. This product is also available at Costco and Sainsbury's as well as on the Ocean Savers Website, so it's quite easily available for most. Sadly, unlike most of the range, it is not currently available at Tescos or Asda yet, but as the concept of cleaning refills gains pace rapidly, hopefully, that will soon change. In the meantime being able to buy it on Bolo subscribe and save makes it very convenient.

5.0 out of 5 stars Smells beautiful and cleans light stains well

L. · 6 December 2021

Lovely sea/fresh smell (not a nauseating or artificial smell at all, it's really pleasant and every time I spray it, anyone near says how nice it smells). Good for cleaning lightly stained surfaces (we use it in the kitchen at the end of the day), but ineffective for anything which requires a bit more elbow grease to get out. We mainly use it as an anti-bac spray, not necessarily a heavy duty cleaning spray.Thank you for creating a plastic-free alternative that doesn't cost the world.Love. Have bought multi-packs twice already and know I will be returning for more when I run out again.
