You can breath while cleaning!!!

Ease of use: As easy as other cleaning products!! It comes in a spray bottle and one can get it in general brand, for your toilet, for a bathtub, and much more! But I found that if you even get one, it will work for all the purposes! Make sure to get the one that says kills 99.99%! How awesome is that? Its natural, and it still kills the germs like other toxic, unsafe stuff does!!

Quality/value: It cost about 4-6 dollars. Depends where you get it from.  I get mine from Whole Food Market. But you can also get it on line. It is an awesome product and there was times when I actually spilled some on my hands and didn't wash my hands for hours later and not for one second did I get worried that this stuff will enter my body and harm me. I trust the company and suggest it to anyone who cares about their health and the health of their children.

How is this green: I have changed a lot after having a baby. I have always cared about green products, natural products. However, I never really cared as much about them as when I had a baby. I am sure most of us went through that stage. Well, now, I don't give, or use nothing, that isn't USDA certified, and has the organic symbol on it. At least that. But when it comes to direct contact with my son, I do an intense research on what each product has inside of it. Like this cleaning stuff, seventh generation. I clean most of the time with my son around me, and you better believe it, he smells it all. So, this product contains no VOC-emitting ingredients and is made from botanically pure plant extracts!! The best thing about it is, it is so safe that you can clean children's toys with it and a toilet at the same time! Can it get any better?

Taste/fit/design: It comes in a lemongrass and thyme scent in a white, easy to grasp bottle. Very natural and pleasing scent, you can tell that you are dealing with something natural here unlike all those other stuff that has injected dosage of scented chemicals onto them.

Company: Seventh Generation

Thanks for sharing, Yuliya, I'm definitely checking this out the next time I hit up Whole Foods!  My alternative to Windex has been water, but Seventh Generation sounds like a great inbetween :)

You are welcome, they do have window cleaning too from Seventh Generation (: Definitely a much better option than Windex (:

A reliable green cleaning company
What is the first company that comes to mind when you think of non-toxic cleaning? For me personally it is Seventh Generation. As far as I can remember, it seems like they were always there. At least back when people started being concerned about cleaning with toxic and carcinogenic substances. Hey, our grandparents and ancestors all cleaned with vinegar, baking soda, lemon juice, and other natural methods...  Then 'advances in technology' came about and our homes were flooded with chemicals.    …
