Tell me about Fabuloso (all-purpose cleaner)

**cab54** · 08-10-2011, 03:38 PM

I use all-purpose cleaners ---put them into my own spray bottles, watered down and some times adding stuff (like ammonia for window spray).

I've never tried Fabuloso, yet I see it at the Dollar tree and other stores. I've seen it mentioned here, but would like to know more.

What do y'all like about it? Thanks.

smells WONDERFUL!

it's my frugal treat. i like the purple one the best.

edit to add: i "get" to get a bottle of fabuloso if i come under budget. i also use it when i can't seem to get motivated to clean

I used it (very diluted) on our wood floors. Even just a capfull in my mop water makes the whole house smell nice. I've only used the purple one, I get it at Aldi. It's about $2.

I love Fabuloso! Especially the scent. Makes a great cleaner for the toilet bowl and gives a clean, fresh smell. I buy mine at the Dollar General store. No problems with it so far.

I use it in the camper. I put it in a sprayer bottle. After each flushing, I put 2 squirts in the stool. Every few days, I spray it in my sink drains in the camper. Smells really nice & No foul smell in the camper! I also use the purple bottle.

I think that I have a manufacturer's coupon for this product. Does "The Dollar Tree" accept coupons? I have not tried it either and yes I will get the purple one since it wins hands down according to all of you here.

My husband brought me fabuloso years ago from mexico before it was popular in the US. It was so cheap!! I like it. Smells good and works great diluted.
I hope you like it! I hate how it has gotten so expensive.

I use fabuloso too. It does leave a long lasting smell in the house. It cleans pretty good, even diluted. I, though, prefer the citrus scented one (it's the red bottle), the purple gives me migraines it is so strong (guess I'm the oddball lol)

I've seen this in the stores but never used it. I MAY; however, I have parrots so I'm very conscientious about using cleaning products that won't harm their sensitive respiratory systems. Currently, I mop with Simple Green or Vinegar-Water. I CAN put them in the outdoor aviary to mop with stronger stuff, so I'm leaning toward giving this product a try.

Wow, that's a generous offer!! LOL! I won't take you up on it, though, I'll just take your word for it. I have enough all-purpose cleaner right now (Dr. Bronner's Sal Suds) to last at least another year, but was curious about the Fabuloso for the future. The one I always see in Dollar Tree is a blue-green color. I've noticed WM has other 'flavors'. Bronner's SS is expensive but I bought in bulk (gallon jug) and it goes a loooooong way. Not sure whether to change.

I think I'll 'open and sniff' next time I see the Fab.
