I've been trying to switch as many products as I can to a more ecofriendly solution without sacrificing cleaning power. This is the perfect swap! I'm religious about cleaning my washer every other month. I would to it every month, but it's just me and I don't have hard water. This cleaner didn't have any harsh smells and it worked just as well as the harsher chemical ridden nonsense. I will definitely repurchase once I finish the bottle!
