I have to be honest, it took months of scrolling past friends posting about Grove for me to give them a try. I am a skeptic at best when it comes to subscription companies, and I totally thought my chemical-laden Walmart cleaning supplies are working just fine, thank-you-very-much.
But I have always struggled with keeping our granite counters as clean and shiny as I like them, until I gave Grove a try! The Method brand granite counter cleaner is my all time favorite cleaning product! It smells amazing and keeps everything super sparkly (it is awesome on stainless steel and our glass table, too!). Plus, getting it delivered straight to my house is a huge plus! One less thing I have to worry about while lugging my toddler through the store!
To sweeten the pot even more, Grove gives all new subscribers (use this link!) a fantastic welcome gift! At the very least, they always give away a beautiful Mrs. Meyers gift set, but they almost always give away extra goodies, too (like the glass spray bottle and beautiful white stoneware tray below)! We keep the Mrs. Meyers soap on re-order because it smells fantastic and is way more gentle on your skin. The room spray is another hit around here.
Like I said, the Method granite cleaner is my BFF. I use it on literally every surface of our kitchen. I love that they offer this giant refill bottle that I order once every 6 months. I use it every day and it lasts! If you are considering a product to try, start here!
I am also a huge fan of the microfiber multi-use cloths. At just about $3 each, I stocked up on them and they have lasted me for months already! They are great for using with the granite cleaner, dusting, wiping out sinks, you name it! Super soft and gentle on your hands, and they hold up really well in the wash.
Honestly, having my Grove subscription has taught me that I am a big fan of pretty much all Method brand cleaning products! The wood polish sold me on my first use. It smells like almonds and leaves our furniture and cabinets super shiny!
We use the Method floor cleaner (also smells like almond! it is fantastic!), Heavy Duty Degreaser, anti-bacterial spray, bathroom cleaner, toilet cleaner and laundry detergent, too! Told you, I am hooked! I 10 out of 10 do recommend!
Now you may be asking, “This all sounds great, Katie, but have you ever run into any issues?” The answer is YES! A couple of months ago, we picked up our shipment to find it wrapped in a plastic bag and soaking wet. Upon opening the box, everything was covered and sticky with my beloved Method laundry detergent. Womp. Womp. Womp.
But the story doesn’t end there! Grove also has a handy texting service for subscribers. I simply texted in the pictures of what happened and they made it right immediately! Fantastic customer service, for the win!
I have absolutely adored about 95% of the products that we have gotten from Grove! I will say, these “tree free” rolls of toilet paper and paper towels are a hard pass for us. We accidentally got them once and then I forgot to take them out, so we got them a second time. You better believe I did not forget to remove them after that! Think, gas station toilet paper mixed with a fin grit sand paper. And then imagine wiping your lady parts with that. Do yourself a favor and skip this one, no matter how eco-friendly it sounds!
Lastly, I will say that I am just now dabbling into their personal care lines. But after doing a lot of research into the toxicity in most tampons (Do yourself a favor and google it. Hello, huge rise in fertility issues!) I made the switch to these organic cotton ones with Grove and I love them! They are far more absorbent, too, which offsets the cost difference!
To summarize, I have nothing but fantastic things to say about Grove! (Other than that their organic toilet paper stinks!) We love getting our products shipped right to us on our own schedule, the prices are at or below that of the same products in a store, and I feel so much better about the chemical reduction! The customer service is top notch, easy to reach and quick to resolve issues. Plus it helps me tremendously to keep our house more clean, knowing that I have my supplies on hand. If you have been considering it (or even if you haven’t yet!) I would definitely say to give it a try!
