Bad product!
Would Not RecommendI couldn’t figure out what was wrong with the product - I thought I bought the wrong thing which is why I am on the website to see what the difference was in the two products. I am talking about what they called wood soap and now this wood cleaner. It is not the same and does not work like the wood soap. Bring the old product back because that is what built your company /. Why would you take that away. You had a good product and now you are making a product that doesn’t do the job. I am fo...

Beautiful finish
I refinished antique furniture and finished with linseed oil. 35 years ago. I refreshed it with Murphy Oil Soap to a wonderful rich mahogany. 2026.

reforumulated isn't better
How to take a proven and time tested product and ruin it. First of all, it's obviously not the original formula it's been reformulated. The current product is much thinner in consistency. The older product was thicker and had a darker color. Why didn't they just leave it alone?

Trusted Product for Antique Woodwork
Would RecommendI have used this wonderful product for years and have only good things to say about it! My home is over 125 years old with lots of original woodwork. Mixing up a container with diluted Murphy’s Oil Soap is an easy way to keep the wood clean and looking great! I trust this product and it does not disappoint. I also love that it has a pleasant scent and does not require a rinse.

Beyond Disappointed.
Would Not RecommendSoooooo incredibly disappointed with the change in the formula. If zero stars were an option, I would’ve chosen that. I have used this product for years and years in a variety of ways on floors, wood, and on all my leather products. I didn’t realize they had changed the formula until I cleaned my saddle with it and it completely ruined the finish. Dried it out and made it look bleached. Also left my floors, dull, and hazy.So I started looking things up and realized they had changed the formula....

Multi surface product including non wood surfaces
Would RecommendI was already familiar with the product as I had used it in prior projects and because of that I opted to chose this product again as it has worked very well in the past.
