all of them because they're good for the environment + non-allergenic, but especially the bathroom cleaner + toilet cleaner,because they have no petrochemicals to be washed into the water supply.

I like the all-purpose cleaner because I hate having a different bottle for each surface. Love the eco-friendlyness :)
Hi mod*mom! I would have to say that my fav is the dilute one. That way you can change the strenght of your cleaner depending on what it is you want to clean and as with the all purpose cleaner you don't have lots of different bottles around.
I am really trying to get our house switched over to all-natural cleaning products. While I haven't used Green Works cleaners before (in fact, this is the first time I have heard of them, I think), I would most like to try the toilet bowl cleaner. That is one of the main products that I still use the "regular" brand of and I would love to find one that is eco-friendly and works.

Not that anyone likes to clean but it must be done, I like Natural bathroom cleaner and the Natural glass and multi surface cleaner. We all have a role in helping the planet, and this is one way we all can. No more polluting our water with cleaning chemicals.

Yay! I have been using another brand of natural cleaning products and I am glad to see there are now more options out there. I think my favorite is the natural bathroom cleaner. I used to worry when I would clean our bathtubs with regular cleaning products and then give my son a bath that his skin would be bothered by the harsh chemicals so I switched to natural and I'm so happy I did. I am going to put green works on my target shopping list!
Now this sounds like a great giveaway!
I too like the all purpose, I hate having to devote so much space to so many different bottles of cleaning products. I admit I was skeptical about buying a 'clorox' brand all natural product, but I did my research and am duly impressed.

I would love to try a natural toilet cleaner that goes the job, so I won't feel so bad flushing bleach down the toilet since the toilet is one of the dirtiest things in the house!
My favorite would probably be the all purpose cleaner. I hate having so many different bottles!

All purpose cleaner is amazing stuff...even better when it's green!
I love the All Purpose- I keep one on each floor and use it multiple times a day for spot cleaning!
The dilutable cleaner - sounds nice.
Thanks,

I'd love to slowly switch to all "green" cleaning products, but in particular, I haven't seen a bathroom cleanser yet that falls into the "green" category.
I like the all-purpose cleaner, as I use that for everything. I currently use the Method brand, but would love something even more eco-friendly with my new baby arriving soon.
Thanks!
The all-purpose cleaner because it covers everywhere my little guy puts his hands, and the toilet bowl cleaner because I'd prefer to think there will be less harmful chemicals in our water system if everyone used something more environmentally friendly such as this product.

I would be most excited to try the all-purpose cleaner, since we use that the most in our house. Thanks!

I like the dilute-able solution. It cleans everything and likely lasts pretty long! (Non-wood floors, counters, sinks, stoves, garbage cans and toilets.)
I LOVE these! I'm a huge environmentalist and could really use these products. My favorite is the all-purpose cleaner, because, well it's all-purpose and can go anywhere. And there are tons of messes in this house to clean up. Thanks!
I like the Natural Bathroom Cleaners. Most bathroom products are so stinky and some have toxic vapors, which i cannot use now that I am pregnant. This natural cleaner would be a healthier alternative.

I'd like the glass & surface cleaner, I could use it for glass plus my stainless steel appliances
tiramisu392 (at) yahoo.com
It would be the bathroom cleaner for me! I'm kinda tired of the cleaner I have now!! I actually love my all purpose cleaner, but would love to try theirs too!
Mine would have to be the "All-Purpose Cleaner". With two kids and one cat, I need something that will truly clean without having to use harsh chemicals.

All of the products -- especially curious about how toilet bowl cleaner will work. I'm in process of switching to natural, organic cleaners (just bought babyganics) but would love to see how these work. Trying to keep chemicals away from my baby! Love that they are biodegradable, sustainable, and 99% pretrochemical free and not tested on animals. Yeah!
The 'all purpose' is most appealing to me - so I don't need to have multiple bottles under the sink and awful chemical smells all over the house.
Hi, I like the all-purpose cleaner because it covers a lot of areas of cleaning in just one product. The toilet bowl cleaner would be super because it would clean the hard water stains, naturally. Thanks,Cindi

ick, my entire family is sick right now with the flu. it sucks! funny, i was just thinking about what i could do to prevent germs. this stuff would be awesome for us. thanks for the giveaway!
I am trying to switch over completely and would love to have a glass cleaner that is eco-friendly. I also like the all purpose cleaner. This is the first time I've heard of this brand, great to have more choices. jennmckim@hotmail.com
My favorites (or most purchased at least) would have to be the All-purpose cleaner & the Glass & Surface. Those are the two products I use the most around the house and with no petrochemicals entering the water- I'm sold. With a 2-year old daughter that has severe excema, we've had to do a 'green' overhaul on every product we use.

Like so many moms, I hate having different cleans for different rooms. I think the all purpose cleaner is terrific.
I am excited about the green works toilet bowl cleaner, not the least because it contains no phosphorous or bleach that would otherwise get dumped into (eventually) the chesapeake bay. I'd heard that Clorox was going green, thanks for giving the heads up about it!
I make some of my own cleaners, but I've never attempted toilet bowl cleaner so that appeals to me the most!
It's a tie between the all-purpose cleaner and the toilet cleaner.
Thanks for this great give away!

I like the cleaner that is concentrated, that way you can make your cleaner the strength you want.
The all purpose cleaner is my fav. I use it on all surfaces. I just had a baby and I use it to clean they changing table, car seat, and crib on a weekly basis. I love green works.
tenah@dyers.net
I won't lie, I've not used this product, but I would love to have the opportunity to help the environment and keep my home safe for my family.
The toilet bowl cleaner because the usual stuff is the most toxic-seeming stuff under my sink!
amyruthwebb at gmail dot com
Natural toilet bowl cleaner would be the best. I never know what I have to fish out of the toilet!!
Thanks!!
I am most intrigued by the toilet bowl cleaner because he smell of traditional cleaners are always so strong and harsh. Plus, it is safer for my daughter who is starting to try to put things in the toilet! Thanks!
I love the natural toilet bowl cleaner, because that's one of the last things I've gotten rid of in my house!
I think the Natural Bathroom Cleaner sounds great. The bathroom is such a small room and I feel like some of the cleaners create a toxic environment in there after you clean.
I'd have to pick the bathroom cleaner as my fave, as I've very concerned with the toxins that conventional cleaners use, this product sounds great!
I love the all-purpose cleaner. Why? because it is all-purpose!
I'm a big fan of all-purpose cleaners too - so easy to use.
Well, I am an all purpose girl only for the ease of use...I use them all the time! So the all-purpose if for me and of course I like it for its versality!! Thanks...

All of them. This is something I have been looking for. Great give away.

The glass and surface cleaner. I've switched from toxic products to vinegar & baking soda, but I've had a hard time finding a glass cleaner that worked really well.
I love the kitchen spray. We do a lot of baking and right now I make my own. This is one thing it would be handy to buy.
i love that theese product are all natural!! i am such a freak about geez lately because my 14 month son always seems to have a cold and i feel the need to sanitize everthing...i think my favorite is the multi-prupose cleaner beacuse i can use it on his high-chair and the counter top when im cleaning up the mess he makes after lunch! but they all look great! hope to win:)
I have never used the green cleaners, but plan to start using them. I think my favorite will be the all purpose cleaner. Thank you.
I like the Natural Bathroom Cleaner best because I would love to give up the bleach habit in there.
I have never used these products. But I do think that I would like the all purpose cleaner since it can be used on practically everything. I also think that I would like the dilute one since you can use as little or as much as you like.
Would love to try the toilet bowl cleaner - the other natural one I'm using isn't removing the toilet...odor. Yuck.
I like the all purpose cleaner. Just grab the bottle and go rather than search for the right cleaner you need.

I have tried the Multi-purpose cleaner and it is great. My daughter has asthma and excema so I had to switch all my cleaning products to be "natural" and "toxin-free". The only downfall is that these prodcuts are more expensive then the supermarket brand which I think deters people from using them. Getting free products which definately help spread the word and allow me to try all the products this great brand has to offer. flk0712@hotmail.com
I am trying to make the switch to "green" products...With a toddler in the house it make sit even more important to me! These all look great, but I especially love the convenience of All-Purpose cleaners so that would probably like that the best!

I like the all purpose cleaner - I think that is a great idea.
sajdakota@yahoo.com
Thanks for another great giveaway!
I like the glass & surface cleaner because it says I can use it on my granite counters. Thanks!
I love that they are more affordable and accessible than most eco-friendly cleaners. I think that the toilet bowl cleaner is the best because it is the hardest one to find among other environmentally friendly brands .
I'd really love to try the bathroom cleaner. Our bathroom doesn't have much ventilation, so I'm breathing in all those harsh chemicals every time I clean in there.
I would have to pick the bathroom cleaner my house always smells so toxic after the bathrooms are cleaned.
all-purpose since it would mean less bottles to haul around
mom2maria at hotmail dot com
With a potty-training-in-progress 2 year old who has to climb onto the toilet, I'll say the toilet bowl cleaner!!
skohng at yahoo dot com
The all-purpose cleaner! Because I like having one product to do most of the cleaning!
I really like the glass and surface cleaner - I can use it on the window film that I can't use harsh cleaners on!
I love all of them because they are plant based and I refuse to use toxic products in my home.
I like the all-purpose cleaner because it has so many uses. But all the products are great.
digicat@sbcglobal.net
I'd have to go with the all purpose cleaner, because I use them constantly. I love that none of these products are tested on animals!
kelli (at) pfrog (dot) net
I would say my favourite would be the all purpose cleaner because I tend to use these throughout the day to clean up all my little messes. I always worry about some friends of mine that will visit because I know that they are chemically sensitive so having a green option for cleaners is always nice.
calgarygal at gmail dot com
I will be honest and say I've never used these products, but I'm always looking for good eco-friendly options and I'd love the chance to try them!
oops, here is my email...

The Natural Toilet Bowl cleaner would actually encourage me to clean them!
the all purpose cleaner would suit me.
I like the All Purpose Cleaner the best as you'd only need ONE bottle to clean evertying. Not only are you saving money, you are saving the environment as well by using 'green' products, but way less product to boot!
I haven't tried any of these products, but I'd like to. I'm especially interested in the bathroom cleaners, so I don't have to be concerned about chemicals when my child helps with the bathroom cleaning!
They all sound great, but I think my favorite would be the toilet bowl cleaner because we all know that, sooner or later, we'll be drinking that toilet water. Gross, I know, but true, nonetheless. I don't want harmful chemicals in my drinking water. :-)
I just bought to try the toilet bowl cleaner and all-purpose cleaner. First of all, I love that it's not brightly colored and will either stain or bleach my clothes if I spill it. Second, my bathroom had the most lemony scent afterwards! Would love to win this! meg.wilson@gmail.com
Such a great product line. I feel good using their eco-friendly products at home. Safer for the environment and great example for my child.
Wow, I can't wait to try these. I would say my favorites are the all purpose cleaner and the bathroom cleaner.
My favorite product would have to be the green works natural bathroom cleaner. If anything had to be all sparkly and clean, the bathroom woudl be it. Really, I like them all. My husband would call me an ocd clean freak.

I love the all-purpose cleaner because I spray it everywhere, and I don't want anything toxic to be floating willy nilly around my house when the kids are around.
Love the natural bathroom cleaner, because really, don't we all want a nice and sparkly bathroom.

I have to admit, i haven't used this product yet... actually they aren't sold where I shop. I've been using 7th generation products. I have been going green for almost a year now, every month I 'green myself' something new. Last month I vowed to only have on 2 lights at a time (harder than one thinks), and the month before that never to even take a paper bag (gave up the plastics for about 8 months ago), and I carry all envio friendly bags; put 1 liter bottle in my toilets filled with sand to save H20, etc. So I've done 8 greener things. Next month is 9! I'd love to try the Clorox products, 7th gen stuff is great for enviro, but some of them don't 'clean well'. :) I'm totally diggin' this Giveaway Idea!

I am always in the market for a more natural cleaner. I especially am excited about the glass cleaner because I hate watching my little one lick the glass after putting harsh chemicals on it.
nicolesmadsen@gmail.com
The all-purpose cleaner is my favorite because I use this sort of cleaner most often and it would be great to have a totally non-toxic version!
The bathroom cleaner is my fav because I have two small kiddos and lots and lots of bath toys. I don't want to have to worry about harsh chemicals in the tub. Thanks for entering me!
All-purpose cleaner rules the world!
would love to try the natural bathroom cleaner and the all-purpose cleaner
Love the all-purpose cleaner, because it makes cleaning just a tad bit easier.
sanna1999(at)verizon(dot)net
My fave product is the toilet bowl cleaner--'nuff said...
Definitely the all-purpose cleaner. Very handy all over the home!
Thanks!
I love multipurpose cleaner, I saw these yesterday at Walmart would love tot ry!
The all-purpose cleaner sounds perfect! During naptime I'm always touching up the kitchen and bathroom floors and this is just the ticket!
The all-purpose cleaner sounds interesting. I haven't used these before, so I'd love to try them out!
