What Customers Are Saying
The product was previously well-regarded for effectively cleaning and conditioning wood surfaces while leaving a nice shine without residue. However, many customers are disappointed with the changed formula, which is described as watered down and leaving a hazy or dull finish. The new scent is also disliked. Customers who used the original product for years feel the company has ruined a trusted, high-quality product and call for a return to the original formula.

I miss the old one!
Would RecommendI liked the old thicker formula better. It worked better, and smelled better. I used to used it as a kid when you scooped it out of a tin for cleaning my horses saddle and bridle. Now, I use for paintbrush cleaning. Please bring back the old formula.

Love the smell that this cleaning product leaves!!
Great product! This was the first time to use this to clean an outdoor two seat, wooden bench. Easy to use, apply and love the pleasant smell that it leaves on our wooden bench!

Disappointed with the changes made
I have been using Murphys Oil Soap for almost 40 years and my newest jug is a HUGE disappointment. It isnt the same scent or consistency, and I didnt feel it cleaned as well. Why change something that was perfect they way it was? I want the previous formula back!!
