CleanSmart Daily Surface Cleaner and Pet-Safe Disinfectant, 23 oz (2 pack)

I've been using this CleanSmart Hypochlorous Acid Spray throughout my house and have been really impressed!! One of my favorite uses is on my toddler's high chair after meals. I do a quick wipe-down first, then spray this on for an extra level of cleanliness and peace of mind. It's also become part of my routine for pet-related cleaning. I use it on our dog's bed, the couch, bedding, and around our diaper-changing area. I appreciate that it's easy to use and helps freshen areas that can develop lingering stink. I also really like that it sprays excellently, and I don't find my finger hurting after having to spray all over one area, and it sprays a surprising amount with each spray (it will drench quickly!). I use it literally everywhere... CON: The only minor downside is that it has a slight chlorine-like smell when first sprayed. However, I actually take that as a sign it's actively cleaning and neutralizing odors. The scent dissipates quickly and doesn't leave behind any lingering fragrance. So not really a 'con' but something to note if you are sensitive. Overall, this is a versatile, convenient cleaner that I've found useful in multiple areas of my home, especially with both a toddler and pets. The two-pack is great value and ensures I always have a bottle where I need it! Works amazingly with anything from kiddo's toys, pet toys, bedding, pillows, etc., and you will not be disappointed. PROS: - Great for toddler eating areas and changing areas - Useful on pet beds, furniture, and bedding - Helps neutralize odors - Easy spray application - Convenient two-pack Highly recommend this product. It has great reviews already; I just wanted to add my personal experience!

This cleaner is an unexpected new favorite. I was looking for something non-toxic to do a massive drawer and cabinet organizing project, so I thought that I'd give this product a try. I am sensitive to odors post-COVID, and this product is virtually odorless (I have an extreme sense of smell, so I can detect scents better than most). I've already used my first two bottles and just received delivery of my next two. Great for a quick wipe-down and now part of my reset process for bathrooms and kitchen. So many environmentally-friendly cleaners have overwhelming fragrance. I'm delighted that this one doesn't, cleans effectively, and kills germs and viruses. It's also relieving to know that my two golden retrievers are likely not impacted by the cleaner either, especially since their breed is prone to cancer. Since roughly 80 - 90% (I've heard both figures stated) of cancers are environmental, I feel good about using this product in my home for the well-being of my entire family.

One of the best pet safe cleaners, since it breaks down into water. Slight chlorine/peroxide smell on use, but scent fades quickly.

I’ll be straight up — I can’t personally verify that this CleanSmart spray is wiping out 99.9% of viruses, bacteria, mold, and fungus. I’m not running a lab over here. But I do trust the claims enough to keep using it daily. I clean counters, desks, and pretty much every surface we touch, and it leaves everything looking clean with no residue, no sticky film, and no funky chemical smell. That alone makes it easy to keep in rotation. So yeah, I’m putting good faith in the science, and from real-world use, it absolutely feels like it’s doing what it’s supposed to do. Solid cleaner, easy to use, and doesn’t leave your house smelling like a hospital.

This product used to be in a clear bottle, so it looked odd to me to see it in this new solid white bottle. I’m sure it’s the same wonderful product. In a different bottle. My very favorite way to use this product is to spray the handle of the grocery cart every time I go into any store!

I tried to give it five stars but it wouldn't let me. Been using this for 5 years since I started taking care of my 98 year old mother. Keeps necessary items clean and odor free

This is a true clean with no sticky streaking its spray helps me get in all the spaces so I can instantly see where the product has been applied It’s gentle on all surfaces I have tried but drying time is amazing for high traffic areas with kids in and out of the house. I will be rebuying this cleaner

Tl;dr Buy a couple of brands of cheap chlorine test strips. Keep track of the remaining chlorine in open bottles by dipping and/or spraying the strip. If you don't want to, spray as normal for the first 2 weeks. After 2 weeks, spray 3-4 times your usual amount to make sure you achieve the desired effectiveness. My household loves this product. We've used it since right before lockdown. It was convenient, available, worked well enough, and it doesn't aggravate allergies. But then I started to wonder if we were using it correctly due to inconsistent results? Sometimes the room smelled like a swimming pool. Sometimes it didn't. Sometimes it smelled like we were just spraying salt water on stuff. Sometimes it smelled like we just opened a bottle of bleach. I knew HOCl solution was unstable, but I didn't think it was supposed to be *that* unstable when manufactured and purchased commercially. To make sure CleanSmart actually did what it says on the bottle, I finally bought an HOCl generator and a couple of brands of chlorine and pH test strips to compare. The chlorine strips show the amount of active ingredient in ppm, or parts per million. CleanSmart should come in between 160ppm-200ppm. I'm a "random useless facts" nerd, not a scientist. Your mileage may vary, etc. etc. It's possible that inconsistencies happen from batch to batch or from bottle to bottle, so I will purchase this product for testing at random intervals blah blah blah okay here we go! STORAGE CONDITIONS: The homemade solution was stored in new 1-gallon HDPE opaque white bottles cleaned with HOCl, then placed on the floor away from direct light in a climate-controlled room. The CleanSmart was stored as I received it, and I placed on my desk away from direct light in a climate-controlled room. TEST: New chlorine test strips from two manufacturers were dipped into the 2-week-old CleanSmart (~5/6ths full), 2-week-old homemade HOCl, newly-opened CleanSmart (from the same 3pc order as the old one), and freshly generated HOCL respectively. Homemade, fresh: Between 160-200ppm chlorine Homemade, old: Between 160-200ppm chlorine CleanSmart, fresh: Between 160-200ppm chlorine CleanSmart, old: Between 160-200ppm chlorine And now for the interesting part. New chlorine test strips were SPRAYED ONCE from 3 inches away. Homemade, fresh: Between 160-200ppm chlorine Homemade, old: Between 140-180ppm chlorine CleanSmart, fresh: Between 160-200ppm chlorine CleanSmart, old: Between 50-100ppm chlorine I re-tested that last result 3 times because I thought it was an error. The results were consistent each time. I sprayed the old CleanSmart at the same 3-inch distance, but drenched the test strips to the point of dripping (2-3 sprays). Only then did the results match the fresh CleanSmart. You can extrapolate its effectiveness for your needs based on how far away YOU spray stuff :) So yeah, CleanSmart after 2 weeks is still better than homemade...if you're cool with developing carpal tunnel syndrome from spraying so much that you drench your countertops, toys, stuffed animals, etc. in the stuff until they drip? To their credit, CleanSmart's instructions *do* try to subtly tell us this with "spray until thoroughly wet" - but imo they should just say... Conclusion: Spray as normal for the first 2 weeks. After 2 weeks, spray 3-4 times your usual amount to achieve the desired results. --- Oh, and for goodness' sake PUT THE SOLUTION IN OPAQUE BOTTLES, CleanSmart! You know it will last even longer if you do. You changed the hand sanitizer spray bottles to opaque white recently (likely to account for travel temp changes, which makes HOCl even more unstable). Change these as well.
