Works well
I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. I was very happy with the Murphy Oil Soap Wood Cleaner. Mixing with warm water gave a solution that worked very well to clean our wood doors and cabinets. A particularly stubborn spot in our garage entry door looks great after using this. I'm hoping to try more areas soon.

Murphy tells dirt, This garage door isn’t big enough for the both of us, so you, have to go!
    I love Murphy's
    I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. We have a lot of woodwork in our home. I trust Murphy's to clean and condition it. It doesn't dry out the wood & it leaves a slight sheen. Although I'm not fond of the citronella scent, I will still continue to use this product.

    If you come home and the lights are on but you didn’t leave them on, that’s the shine from the wood!

      Can’t go wrong with a classic
      I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. This cleaner is a classic. Known for being able to safely clean wood surfaces, this does not disappoint. Since it's concentrated, this big bottle will last quite awhile. It leaves your room smelling great after you're done mopping your hardwood floors. No chemical smells, just a light citronella scent.

      Murphy is your all-in-one wood cleaner. It cleans, shines, protects, and leaves a great scent too!
        Strong smell but effective!
        I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. The smell is a little overpowering at first, I was worried it would linger. However, after cleaning my cabinets and floors, I was definitely impressed. They looked so much better, and the strong smell tapers off pretty quickly. Will definitely use again in the future.

          Great product that really works!
          I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. Murphy’s Oil soap worked great on 2 used nightstands I recently purchased. It left them clean and brought back their luster and enhanced the beautiful color of the wood. I will be using Murphy’s oil soap on all my wooden furniture and cabinets.

            It's not just for wood?!?
            I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. I had no idea all of the uses for Murphy's Oil Soap but I did know one thing. I knew I was going to use it in the toilet to try to keep the bowl slick and the mold at bay. I had to drain the water from the toilets and then I applied a liberal amount of the product with a sponge. And I waited. And lo and behold, the product helped keep the mildew at bay so I can go a little bit longer between deep cleaning. I am a little nervous to use it on my laminate floors but I will be trying it on my ceramic tile. Who knew? This is a great product with a multitude of uses.

              Cleans Well with mostly natural ingredients
              I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. I used the murphy’s oil soap diluted in my mop bucket as directed for heavy duty cleaning. It definitely has a noticeable citronella oil smell to it, even after being diluted and mopped onto the floor. I don’t mind it, but if you don’t care for that smell, there’s no getting around it! I do have a problem with some other cleaning products affecting my breathing some, but this doesn’t bother me at all! It seemed to do a good job cleaning my old vinyl kitchen floor tiles. After a few sections, there were suds in the water from wringing the mop and some were transferred to the floor while mopping. It didn’t seem to be a problem though. There was no residue that I noticed. I can’t wait to use it to spruce up our wood cabinets! I might just clean the front porch, posts and railings with this too to see if the citronella oil in it keeps mosquitoes away!

                Best wood cleaner
                I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. This is a great product for cleaning wood surfaces. It is a natural product and I feel good about using it in my home. It is also useful for many things. I mostly think of it as a floor cleaner but it's also good for cabinets, chairs, etc.

                    Works amazingly!
                    I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. I really like how well this cleaner works. It gets rid of built up grime and dirt relatively easy compared to other cleaners of the same price. It also has a nice subtle scent that isnt overpowering. I like that it can clean many different kinds of surfaces so you dont have to have so many different cleaners at home, you can use this for many things!

                      Cleans well
                      I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. I used the oil soap on my laminated floors in a room that has not been mopped in years. I used a spin mop with warm water and a drizzle of the oil soap to clean the floors. The soap has a faint scent that reminds me of lemons and lingers in the room for awhile. My floors had a nice shine after it dried and it removed a lot of the dust particles and dirt from the floors.

                        I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. This product is amazing and works wonders. Made my wood items look like new and the smell is amazing. I didn't have to use very much. Just a small dab and it was great. Can be used to clean wood floors as well! Overall great product. Love the smell and the freshness. Only product to consider if you want to clean wood.

                          Favorite New Cleaner
                          I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. I was always a big fan of Murphy's Oil Products. This is the first time I have used the Original Concentrated Wood Cleaner. I like that this is concentrated and it will last me for quite a while. I have older kitchen cabinets and I followed the directions and polished them. The cabinets have a lovely shine now and the dirt marks are removed. I like that I can use this product for many purposes and will replace my other cleaners. The scent is wonderful also.

                          Thanks for being a Murphy fan! Murphy says, It’s totally ok to donate those other cleaners, because he can clean and shine, just about anything you want!
                            Still one of the best cleaners around
                            I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. Murphy's Oil Soap is still the best general wood cleaner around. I like to use it on my cabinet doors tables and dining room chairs. It cleans without damaging or stripping the finish or the wood underneath. It cleaned my medium tone ash cabinet doors beautifully. On my dining door chairs, it helped get the kid gunk off the legs without too much elbow grease. My only issue was with my dark cherry furniture. When the table dried completely, there was a slight haze. The finish is very dark, and I guess that's why it was noticeable. Still, nothing was sticky, and cleaning was fairly quick. Also, it's pretty inexpensive.

                                I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. I think this product does a pretty good job at restoring my wood floors to looking newer. A little goes a long way, so the large bottle will last me a long time. The smell is a little strong for my liking but overall a good product. I like that it is made with natural ingredients and not harsh chemicals.

                                    I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review.This product does the job its intended for. The price for the product is good for as much as you get in the bottle. Diluting instructions are easy to follow. While it does the job the smell is overpowering and lingers for hours, and it smells almost like bug spray.

                                      Murphy Wood cleaner in large size for clean floors
                                      I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. The Murphy concentrated wood cleaner is an oil soap for cleaning wood surfaces like your floors, furniture or other wooden surfaces and comes in a recognisably distinct citronella scent. A 2.66 L jar is equivalent to approximately 90 ounces of cleaning fluid and should last you over 2 years. It feels slippery to the touch and washes away cleanly, leaving no residues. All on all, I was satisfied to introduce and use it in my cleaning routine for the home.

                                        I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. I use the Murphy Oil Soap to clean my butcher block countertops before I oil them. It only takes a small amount diluted in water to do the job since it is concentrated. I also like to use it on my wood floors. It cleans my floors without causing a build-up. I love the fact that most of the ingredients are natural.

                                                        With Murphy, it doesn’t take a lot, to get a lot done!

                                                          It’s ok
                                                          I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. We moved into a house that mostly has wooden floors so I wanted something geared specifically towards wood care. I am not fan of the original "scent" and don't feel like it cleans as well as soapy floor cleaners so I use it after regular mop. It gives the floor a bit of matte look but slightly restores the color.

                                                          If that house could talk, it would say, "Thank you for using Murphy! Please call 1-800-486-7627 and let’s see if Murphy can help.
                                                            Great wood cleaner with a bonus multipurpose use!
                                                            I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. This cleaner does the job of cleaning grease and brings new luster to wood floors and even laminate floors. I liked the smell, which is not overpowering and has strong notes of lemon; not overly herbal and it doesn't linger. I like that it leaves a shine without a film! I also like that I can clean wood cabinets, doors and dressers. Another bonus I liked is that it is effective cleaning paint brushes too!
