Our take on the Dawn Ultra Dishwashing Liquid Dish Soap, Original Scent

Dawn Ultra is the standard heavy-duty liquid dish soap: a concentrated, phosphate-free formula built to cut grease on dishes, pans and grill grates. It is thicker and more grease-focused than most store-brand and eco-friendly dish liquids, so a small squeeze goes far. Reviewers consistently rate its grease cutting and suds longevity at the top of the category. It suits households with greasy cooking, cast iron or outdoor cooking gear; anyone wanting a mild, fragrance-light formula should look at free-and-clear or plant-based rivals.

Questions and answers

Is Dawn Ultra better than regular Dawn?
Ultra is the concentrated version, so it is thicker and generally needs less per load than the classic blue formula. Both cut grease well; Ultra is the better pick for heavy greasy cooking.
Can I use it on cast iron?
Yes. A small amount on a brush or sponge lifts grease without stripping a well-seasoned pan if you rinse promptly and dry it thoroughly.
Does it work as a laundry stain remover?
It is widely used as a pre-treat for grease and oil stains on clothing. Apply a drop, work it in, and wash as usual; rinse first on delicate fabrics.
Is it safe for septic systems?
The surfactants are biodegradable and the formula is phosphate-free, so it is generally considered septic-safe in normal household amounts.
How much should I use per sink?
A small squeeze, roughly a teaspoon, is enough for a full sink of dishes. More soap means more rinsing and can leave film.
Is it available in a refill size?
Yes, this is the larger refill-style bottle meant to refill smaller pump or squeeze bottles and last through many washings.
Where is the Dawn Ultra Dishwashing Liquid Dish Soap, Original Scent cheapest?
At The Home Depot, for $3.47, 22% under what the other stores charge, as of our latest check.
