- Cuts plastic waste and saves storage space
- Pleasant, not overpowering scent
- Good value per bottle once you buy refills
- Tablets can take a while to fully dissolve
- Only two tablets included
- Some find the scent too light or not to their taste
Clorox Disinfecting Wipes
Owners value the convenience for fast cleanups on counters, sinks and handles, and many keep a canister in each room. Common complaints are that wipes dry out when the lid is not sealed and that they can streak glass or leave a film.
Questions and answers
- Which is better for cleaning a shower?
- The Blueland set. It is formulated for bathroom grime on tub, tile and shower surfaces. Clorox wipes are aimed at disinfecting touchpoints and glass, not scrubbing soap scum.
- Which kills germs?
- Clorox Disinfecting Wipes state a disinfecting result. The Blueland bathroom cleaner is described as cleaning and removing soap scum, with no disinfecting claim.
- Is the Blueland set worth the extra over wipes?
- It is actually cheaper up front here: $4.80 at the listed store versus $7.29 at Target for the wipes. Refills at about $2.25 per tablet keep the cost low over time.
- Which lasts longer?
- The Blueland bottle is reused indefinitely and each tablet makes a full 500 ml bottle. A Clorox canister is used up and thrown away, so you rebuy it.
- Can I use Clorox wipes on a bathtub?
- They are listed for glass and household surfaces and disinfect as they clean, but they are not built for scrubbing bathroom soap scum. Use the Blueland spray for tub and tile.
- Which takes less storage space?
