Origin
- Produced and packaged in Chicago, Illinois, USA
Ingredients
- Tablets: Vegetable Soap [Potassium Cocoate, Sodium Cocoate, Glycerin, Water, Organic Cocos Nucifera (Coconut) Oil]
- Additional info: sodium cocoate is the chemical name of coconut oil that has been saponified (aka 'made into soap'). Sodium sunflowerate is the chemical name of sunflower seed oil that has been saponified. There will be some coconut and sunflower seed oils left in the soap after they are saponified, due to the fact that Meliora uses sodium hydroxide, or lye, in the conversion process. Leaving these excess oils in the soap ensures there is NO remaining lye in the finished product, and gives the soap its lather and moisture. This process is also called 'superfatting'. Glycerin is naturally created when the oils are converted into soap–and helps to keep skin soft, and is an effective solvent, making it great for dissolving stains and dirt. Water is used in the soapmaking process to dissolve the lye, and then is dried out over several weeks, resulting in a hard soap bar with very little water leftover. There is ~5% water leftover in these soap bars, compared to liquid soap that contains ~60% water.

Meliora
Meliora began when their co-founder, Kate, began wondering what was really in her cleaning products. After discovering companies aren’t actually required to list all of their ingredients (what?!), Kate set out to create cleaning products with simple, earth-friendly ingredients that are listed on the front of the package. Meliora means “better” in Latin, and that’s what these cleaning products are made to be. They’re conscious about choosing ingredients that are effective, safe for the home and body, and cause no trouble for Mother Earth after the chores are said and done. Meliora boasts the MADE SAFEⓇ seal and Leaping Bunny on all products, ensuring that no products or ingredients build up on our bodies, in the environment, are toxic for the oceans, or are tested on animals.

Been using this product for years. The only cleaners I have in the entire house are this, diluted bleach, and diluted vinegar. This works for everything from the kitchen appliances, countertops, to the bathroom.

A nice reusable glass bottle. Now I only have to buy refills. I only wish the spray head could be made of something other than plastic. I hope the sprayer lasts a while. The cleaning solution eemed to work well. It took longer to dissolve than I thought. Give it a good while. No chemical smells!

I’m so happy that they changed this product from small soap “sprinkles” into tablets. They easily dissolve in water and work great for refilling spray bottles. This is very concentrated.

Perfect for just general cleaning. The tablet dissolved within an hour or so and the solution was cloudy with bubbles. I just shake my bottle before using it and it works good. No strong fragrance which is a plus! It claims to work on glass surfaces however when I tried it just caused a bunch of streaks. Other than that it is a great way to cut back on plastic bottles and the price is fantastic!

A great all-purpose cleaner, just a few things to keep in mind: this does not disinfect surfaces (that being said not all surfaces need to be constantly disinfected in my opinion, antibiotic resistance is coming for us), it does need a quick shake if left for a while to re-incorporate the ingredients, and I find when I clean with it I do have to leave it and walk away for a bit after I spray, as if I lean over a wipe it away I breathe it in and it leaves me coughing. All simple fixes, just things to keep in mind

This multipurpose spray is an excellent alternative to the commercial stuff. It cuts down grease and does a great job disinfecting and tackling odor. I am still on my first tablespoon of detergent and the stuff just lasts. The scent does become strong if you spray alot, so it shows how concentrated the formula is. Since I barely made a dent in my refill, I am very happy I made the investment to buy this product. I think it is a good value and you get a TON of cleaning uses from it.

I absolutely love this cleaner, it works super well on all surfaces in my house. The smell can be a little strong if you spray a lot of it but other than that it’s great. It doesn’t leave any weird film or texture on whatever surface you clean and it doesn’t smell chemically which is a huge plus for me.

Was previously using Clorox wipes and then wanted to move towards low/zero waste. So glad I made the switch! I use these with unpaper towels and I have found no residue is left over, and most dirt gets cleaned. The only difficulty I have is with deeper stains (usually from shoes) where I use a Magic Sponge. But for general cleaning, this works perfectly on all surfaces.

I’m surprised at how well this cuts down on grease. doesn’t leave any kind of residue on stainless steel appliances. i bought two of these bottles. after a while the spray option doesn’t work anymore. it comes out as a stream. unfortunate because i only use the spray setting. will see what the second bottle will do.

This cleaner is amazing! I am new to “natural” products but also working on limiting my plastic usage. I added a few drops of my favorite oil and water! It is as simple as that! My husband notices that the house smell fresher, and less chemical smelling. This is a win in my book and will continue to try products from this company!

I love this cleaner! I use it daily for my counters and table top. It cleans up splattered grease and even a butter explosion from my microwave. It does streak on my table occasionally but it’s laminate and I didn’t wipe it dry like the instructions say to. I also use this in the bathroom for a quick wipe down, kid marks on the walls, etc. The original bottle lasted 2.5 months of frequent use.
I did notice the sprayer can come loose like another reviewer said but it hasn’t been an issue. I think I habitually tighten it whenever I grab it now.

This product is great and easy to use. It does streak a little bit, but I think it’s because I didn’t use enough water to dilute it. Otherwise, it’s a perfectly nice replacement for any other natural cleaning spray.

Hi Rose! This product is great for showers and bathrooms. Vinegar, a natural disinfectant, keeps things clean and sparking! It will not work well on hardwood floors, but our product team is hard at work finding a sustainable cleaner specifically for floors. This all-purpose cleaner will work better for floors in the meantime because it does not have vinegar!

Hello! I bought this recently and was wondering if anyone else noticed that the sprayer easily gets loose from the bottle? Hoping that’s not the case because I love this cleaner. If so, I’d probably purchase a different bottle and reuse the Meliora bottle as a plant sprayer or something.

This really cleans great and I love how in the long run, I’m probably refilling it at a cheaper rate as opposed to buying a new bottle every time. It did turn a bit syrup-y after a few weeks, but I would just shake the bottle and spray it on. It doesn’t really have a “scent” – as liquid inside the bottle, you’d probably register that it has a very very faint soap smell, but while I was cleaning surfaces, it would have that faint “wet rag” smell that goes away when it’s fully dry. That doesn’t particularly bother me much, but I’m slightly inclined to put a few drops of oil next time.

Will this sanitize your surface, killing germs and viruses like Covid?
(0) (0) Watch Unwatch
EarthHero (verified owner) –
Hi Wendy! While this cleaning spray is fantastic for wiping sticky counters and busting soap scum, it doesn’t contain the ingredients needed to combat viruses or kill bacteria. Particularly in the case of COVID, a spray with 70% alcohol content is key for effective disinfecting. For a natural disinfectant, vinegar is an excellent ingredient to be on the lookout for! We love this surface cleaner by Earthy Ediths for everyday germs. However, it is important to note that vinegar is not effective against aggressive viruses such as COVID.

Works well as an all purpose spray. I like the eco friendly aspect and that you can add your own scent. Reason I gave it four stars and not five is that the bottle has quite a strong spray. Not a big deal, I just prefer more of a mist and not a stream.

I bought this to switch my current cleaner for this one, and to be honest, I was skeptical, but I’m no longer doubting the power of this cleanser. It has no odor, and no residue. I used in on my mom’s granite counter tops and worked beautifully . I bought the bottle and the refill. I have cleaning product for a long time and I love it!
FYI-the label on the bottle does states to use each batch made within six months (will not make it to six months, I’m constantly reaching for it!)

I purchased a glass bottle and refill of this product and couldn’t be happier. I love how simple it is to refill and I feel great about not buying a new plastic bottle every time! Plus, you can’t beat those simple ingredients! When I spray the cleaner it goes on a little white (not sudsy) as I rub it in but that goes away once I rub until dry. I have not experienced any sticky residue either! For tough or stuck spots, I just spray and let it sit for a few minutes and things wipe right off! I was very excited about that! All in all, I would definitely recommend to a friend! 🙂

I was initially unsure given how suds did not seem to form and it was difficult to tell whether or not if there was any actual cleaning action going on. After using this on some dirtier surfaces and having dissolved just a few flakes more into the initial solution, this really seems to have become my new all-purpose cleaner! It works great and the refill option is not only less wasteful for the environment but it seem that it’ll be less wasteful for my wallet, too!

Hi, Amber! We are so bummed that this product didn’t work as expected for you- the plant-based vegetable soap actually works to dissolve grease and grime and definitely shouldn’t be leaving your counters sticky! If you’re looking to troubleshoot, adding slightly fewer flakes when you refill, mixing with very hot water, and shaking to dissolve, and thoroughly drying the surface may help:) If you’re still having trouble, feel free to reach out via live chat or hello@earthhero.com. We’re more than happy to help!

I love this little cleaner. For years, I wiped my counter tops with rags and water and/or vinegar, but my husband is very used to highly scented toxic cleaners. So he doesn’t mentally feel like things get “clean” with vinegar. This bottle works well and gives us both the “it’s really clean” feeling without all the crappy additives. And I love that you can get refills for it! Nothing is dirty or sticky after use
