I used this the first time on some really messy counters with dried syrup and something else I didn't really know what it was. I sprayed this generously on every part of my counter I could and let it sit for a few minutes. I wasn't prepared for the overwhelming smell of a mock lavender that smelled more of cleaning supply then lavender. It was a lot of smell that I couldn't take anymore, so I quickly wiped the counters. I did have to scrub the syrup for a few minutes, but it did come off with this cleaner. The counters looked exceptionally clean and I was happy about that. The only thing I can say bad about this spray, is the smell. The smell lingers also for about 2 hours after you use it. I had three people ask me what that smell was on different occasions. They were not fans of the smell. I liked the spray, but maybe do not make the smell so strong. I liked that the ingredients were not as harmful then most leading brand cleaners. This says on the back of the bottle, 98% natural. So there is 2% that is something man made in there. I think that's not too bad, but if you're looking for something 100% natural, then this wouldn't be for you.
