SMELLS BEGONE1-Gallon Odor Absorber Gel - Air Freshener & Odor Eliminator for Homes, Garages & Commercial Buildings - Industrial Size - Apple Cinnamon Scent

I purchased this for our garage and I’m honestly impressed so far.For some context of what I was dealing with…We have an attached double-stall garage with 3 kennels inside for our St. Bernards. Since we’re usually at work all day we wanted to give our dinosaur dogs some room to move around and play with each other instead of being held up in their kennels for 9+ hrs. Our cars were kicked out of the garage and we let our pups roam around while we’re gone (we are 20-somethings with the adulting skills of a toddler so our garage is pretty empty as far as tools and lawn equipment goes).Everything is going GREAT- the pups are happy they get to stretch their legs, we’re happy because we don’t feel like neglectful dog parents, plus the added bonus of not having to worry that they’re eating a hole in the drywall of the living room (again). We really thought we had this all figured out, why didn’t everybody do this? After a week we suddenly realized why everybody didn’t do this.Turns out free roaming for 9 hours in the garage means at SOME point these pups have to use the bathroom. No biggie though, we’d go in there every night and scoop it all out and every weekend we use a heavy duty (pet friendly) cleaner and a squeegee to clean the entire garage floor so it smells nice and clean. We decided to just put the doggie dung in the backyard thinking it’ll just naturally disintegrate…after 4 days we picked up so much poop that it was no longer a “pile” but a wildlife habitat. It was then we decided we need to get a trash can specifically for this, because after a month we’d have to give this thing it’s own house number.Now that we have our make-shift doggie diaper genie, our problems are all over—right? WRONG! Now every time you get within 20 feet of our house it just smells like dog poop from the trash can. We had a sealing lid on this sucker and it still managed to overpower the OUTDOORS. Our genius idea? Put it in the garage so we can contain the smell…remember how I said our garage is attached to our house? Guess where that smell traveled to. Oh yes, our beloved abode smelled like we had a secret zoo and only fed the animals taco bell. I literally learned how to candles hoping I could overpower it, but after our cat caught her tail on fire for the 3rd time we realized my hobby was more of a fire hazard and we needed to try something else.In comes this product! I like the citrus smell and it’s not crazy overpowering. I mean if you put this in like a 5x5 room you may end up with a headache but it would still take a while. I tucked this sucker away in our garage and hoped for the best…our house no longer smells like animal IBS, even our garage doesn’t smell too bad at all. You can smell a hint of ammonia from the urine but the dung smell is totally gone! The only real con to this is the size…it clearly says it’s only 1 gallon but once you look at it you realize 1 gallon for $30 is kind of steep. But I guess they know if you’re looking for a gallon of deodorizer then you’re probably desperate.TLDR; Works great, a little small for the price, doesn’t get rid of ammonia smell entirely but impressed nonetheless.

I liked that product has a long lasting smell. It absorbs smells, but not as good as I imagined for the size of the bucket.

Not horribly, but you would think with all the comments about leakage that it would be in a plastic bag or shrink wrap.Smells nice. We shall see how well it works. I may post another review about its odor absorption.Right now it's in the laundry room, not a large area. Our litter box is also in that room. So we shall see.

Hopefully, this is working; however, some ofIt had leaked out in the. Box was wet, some was on the outside of the lid. May need to consider putting it in a plastic cover, before putting it in a box.

I purchased this back in the fall last year and I loved it! I live in a very old house and due to the age they always have some unique smells you just can't put can't put your finger on. This stuff is GREAT! Smells amazing and really absorbs the odors. Its already on my list for this year. I tried the orange but the Apple is definitely my favorite. I highly recommend.

I have purchased this twice. The first bucket I got went into the basement, and right away I noticed a difference. The gel has a nice scent, but don't expect the scent to fill the room. It doesn't. But it does a GREAT job of absorbing unwanted odors. It's been a wet summer, and everything is dank and musty smelling in the basement. It worked so well, I bought another one to put in the living area of the house. I have 3 dogs, and sometimes I can smell dog smell in the house. This gell has really helped with that a lot. I will definitely buy this product again.

It isn't a miracle worker but it works pretty darn good.

Can’t believe we thought we had to just deal w a musty smelling basement.Sister-in-law came by and said ‘I always smell the basement, even from upstairs. I smell nothing now.’Excellent product

I will rewrite this review once ive had it wirking fir a while... as just set up 2 trays with about 3 tablespoon fulls in each to help neutralise pet , cigarette and nasty smells in a used vehicle which were masked when i got the vehicle.....

Good

I bought this one cause the green tubs were sold out. The green tubs are the ones to get. This one still works but it is no where near as good.

Big bucket, mild nice smell but I don't think it does much else

Had a dead mouse smell . Hoped this would work appeared to dry up quickly within a few weeks , smell not so strong orange wise . Not sure if it worked or not
