Okay

Compared to the Palmolive Oxy Dish Liquid, this Ultra Strength version has a less offensive smell. However, it has a very bright, unnatural green color and a scent that smells very artificial. The bottle quantity (but not the bottle itself - they keep redesigning it to try to make the smaller quantity unnoticeable) is getting smaller and smaller which means that more plastic is produced. The current bottle contains only 20 fluid ounces (591 ml). It does seem to clean dirty dishes fairly well, and it rinses away cleanly.

What did you do to it?

Longtime loyal Palmolive user. What the Heck did you do? How could this horrible replacement formula have been selected. The smell is horrendous, it smells like rotten green tea! I can't stand to smell it. The consistency it like water now and does not clean. It just falls right off the sponge and dishes. So upset I spent money on this 90oz. bottle. Beyond disappointment and don't even know how to find a replacement since I have been using this for 40 years.

Palmolive Ultra Strength

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have used Palmolive in the past, never tried the Ultra Strength till now and it worked great. A little goes a long way. Was shocked how little I used to clean a sink full of dishes. It gets the grease off with little ease and scrubbing. I even used it on my stove and removed grease stains. I love the smell.

Palmolive Ultra Strength is shockingly effective at wiping out grease and dirt, no matter where it goes!

Doesn’t Do Well With Grease

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I usually use Dawn dish washing soap but was excited to try this new Palmolive Ultra Strength Liquid. It doesn’t cut through the grease very well but does rinse off easily. I like my soaps to have more of a scent to them though.

Plain and Simple

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This dish detergent is just okay. I honestly did not like the green color. It makes me think about the chemicals inside the formula that are used to make it green. I know that this company is known for this color, but I would prefer coloring was not added. I would appreciate this formula a lot more if it was focused on being more natural and sulfate free. I did notice that many awful chemicals are not in this formula, but the sulfates were very drying on my skin. I didn't think this formula bubbled up well, but it did a great job a cutting grease. I would not purchase this product with my own money because I believe fully natural products are better.

Thanks for your review. You should try Palmolive Shake n' Clean. It’s free from parabens, phosphates and uses 100% biodegradable cleaning ingredients!

It Works!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This seems to be thicker than the original. It suds pretty well, although I feel like an extra squeeze once I start washing. It smells pleasant and the smell is not overpowering. It gets my dishes squeaky clean. It also cuts through grease well.

That extra squeeze is for making more bubbles and more great smells as you play with the dishes! We know. We do it too!

Missing The Original Scent

Long time Palmolive user here. Cut to the chase; Palmolive cleans as well as many other dishwashing soaps on the market. The thing that has set it apart is the original scent. That scent is what has kept Palmolive selling for all these years. You need to bring back the original scent before you lose too many long time customers. It is not really Palmolive unless it smells like Palmolive.

Best Dish Soap

Palmolive has a very distinctive scent to it, with that said it is my favorite soap scent! The smell is very nostalgic to me, it reminds me of going over to my grandparents house when I was a kid so I will never find myself using a dish soap other than Palmolive. It is very delicate on your hands as well, after a dishwashing session you will find your hands are still moist and not dried out.

NOT GENTLE ANYMORE

It IS a differrent formula!!!! It was great for bathing our dog with sensitive skin. His fur was soft & clean. We used the new formula & it was Horrible!!!!! His fur was coarse & his skin turned red and he was itching like Crazy. I’m NOT putting my hands in it for dishes anymore. If you want a degreaser, you will probably like it. If you remember ‘Madge - you’re soaking in it’ ads, it’s HORRIBLE. This Palmolive is like ‘New Coke’

The Ultra Strength Isn't A Joke

I couldn't tolerate the smell at first, then I understood how to use the product correctly. They aren't kidding around when they call it ultra strength. You need to use very little of the soap for its effectiveness, if you use too much the scent becomes too strong. When using the right amount, the smell is fantastic.
