Love it but load carefully.

I love Dawn, but this size did not come with the type of cap pictured. It was a spout and the bottle had a label that said this side up. I did curbside pick up, needless to say neither the help loading my car or myself saw the label.....when I got home, 3/4 of the bottle spilled all over the back of my car. So be careful!

I absolutely love this product. Of course Dawn is the best dish-washing liquid on the planet. The suds are long-lasting and the product itself lasts a long time. This is the perfect size if you don't want to have to purchase dish-washing often. It is great.

Inferior to other Dawn products.

I'm so very disappointed in this Dawn product. I thought that since it was labeled as professional and for commercial use, that would mean it would work even better for everyday use. It does not. It doesn't suds well, and it doesn't clean as well as other Dawn products. I'm using so much more than I would normally use, but I am glad to be getting rid of it so I can go back to the better stuff.

reply from Dawn

Thanks for reviewing Dawn Professional, Maria. The formulations between residential Dawn products and Dawn Professional products differ based on usage habits and needs. For example, professional kitchens are required to use an industrial three-compartment sink, where pots and pans can soak and then be scrubbed clean. This requires dishwashers’ hands to be submerged in the soapy solution in water for prolonged periods of time, so our Dawn Professional dishwashing products are formulated for this usage and intended to be extra gentle on hands while still fighting the toughest professional kitchen messes. By contrast, dishwashing trends within the home are shifting away from filling a sink of soapy solution, and over 70% of Americans today instead apply their dish liquid directly to a sponge or individual dish, scrub that dish, and then rinse. Over the past several years, we’ve updated our residential Dawn products to be better suited for this shift in at-home dishwashing behavior, and the formulations and balance of ingredients have reflected that. We're happy to help more and encourage you to give us a call at (800) 725-3296.

Dawn does dishes and so much more

There are so many things you can do with Dawn. You can wash dishes, wash delicates, kill weeds, clean the lawnmower and other equipment. I use it for so many things that buying the larger size was a no brained. I put it in smaller plastic spray bottles around my house .

Fantastic multi-use product

Dawn is my go-to cleaning product. I love it for dishes, but I also use it to clean my bathroom sinks, showers, tubs, and floors. It keeps everything wonderfully clean and sparkling. If extra cleaning is needed, I just add a little vinegar to my Dawn + water and it takes care of any challenging dirt or soap scum. I have ultra sensitive skin and allergies so really appreciate the excellent cleaning properties without harsh chemicals. I would also add that Dawn worked wonders when my indoor pets got fleas. I gave them a bath in Dawn and the fleas were taken care of. I also followed some online recommendation for using Dawn in the washer for bedding to ensure any fleas were killed. It called for small amounts like a tablespoon or two per load. It was a lot of work to get rid of the fleas, but the Dawn worked successfully without my having to use harsh chemicals.

not professional strength

i thought this would be a stronger version of dawn since it is an industrial size and said professional strength. However it is quite thin in consitency compared to regular grocery store dawn, i am using twice as much as regular store bought dawn. I will not purchase this again.

Great to use if you wash dishes with bleach

Only dishwashing liquid that I found I could use with bleach to wash my dishes without having the massive chemical smell. It is one of a very few that does not have the warning label on it stating not to use with bleach. Sometimes it comes with a pump and sometimes it doesnt, Sometimes the pump is think and hefty and others it is flemsy but it gets the job done either way.

When you want enough dishwasing liquid to last!

Love to wash my dishes with Dawn because it is the best to cut grease and stubborn stuck on food the dishwasher may leave behind. I purchase this large volume quantity so my regular container never runs out. Simply the finest liquid dish detergent at an economical price!

I purchased these to use in the grill my son owns. We go through a lot of dish detergent, and I've always loved what Dawn does to destroy grease. I (we) are disappointed in this Dawn, as it states it's "professional", which one would think would work exceptionally well on greasy restaurant dishes/pots and pans. Well, it does do that by using more of it. We are just a small operation, which means hand washing all dishes/pots and pans, and this Dawn falls short when it comes to maintaining a sudsy, grease fighting dish water. As for grease fighting, yes it does, but only when more Dawn is added directly to a greasy dish or pan (added expense). I won't be purchasing this again as it's a bit pricey for not holding up.

unknown concentration

It's Dawn, so still better than other detergents, but this strength doesn't indicate what level of concentration it is. I didn't have any Ultra Dawn left to do a side by side comparison, but Professional seems thinner than the Ultra Strength version.
