Sponsored Post: In order for me to support my blogging activities, I was compensated for this post, but I only do this for brands I believe in. I received a free sample of the product for the purpose of this review. All opinions are my own.
With three children in the house, there always seems to be a mess that needs to be cleaned up. Ink on the counter. Grass stains on a shirt. Juice stain on the couch. Dirty handprints on the wall. Who-knows-what (and I probably don’t want to know) that left a sticky mess all over my reclining leather chair.
With so many things to clean, I can’t stand to stockpile a cabinet full of cleaners. I don’t want to remember what is used for where. I just want simplicity.
And then I found Branch Basics. This stuff is like the equivalent of Windex in the movie My Big, Fat Greek Wedding. Got mildew stains? Use Branch Basics. Got tough wine on the carpet? Use Branch Basics. Need a facial cleaner? Use Branch Basics. Need a gentle baby soap? Use Branch Basics.
In fact, you can even add Branch Basics to a mini spray bottle and use it to clean on the go – like the grime off your hands when you pump gas for your car or to clean little messy hands from eating in the car.
What is Branch Basics?
It’s hard to believe, but Branch Basics is truly an all-in-one natural cleaner that’s non-toxic, yet super effective. And when I say non-toxic, I mean you can literally spray the stuff in your mouth. Branch Basics is “Human Safe” – that means there is no warning or precautionary label of any kind. It’s not irritating to the skin, eyes, and are not harmful if absorbed, inhaled or accidentally ingested.
Branch Basics prioritizes human health above all else AND it gets the job done. That’s a tall order for any cleaning product, but this one REALLY does clean everything and the kitchen sink.
It can literally replace every cleaner in your home:
- All-purpose cleaner
- Bathrooms - tubs, showers, toilets, tile and grout, hand soap
- Kitchens – appliances, countertops, dish soap, fruit and vegetable wash, ovens and stoves
- Personal care – facial wash, shampoo, body wash, jewelry cleaner
- Kids and babies – baby wash, stuffed animals, toys
- Pets – dog shampoo (and even flea repellant)
- Whole house – carpet cleaner, laundry detergent, glass, windows, blinds, walls, furniture, exercise equipment
- Outside – grills and BBQ equipment, patio furniture, boats, sporting equipment
- Office equipment
- Stain removal – adhesives and goo, permanent marker, oil spills and spots
My favorite feature of Branch Basics is the fact that I can use just ONE product to clean my entire house and family. And best of all, when I travel I can pack just one ingredient to wash clothes, bathe my kids and wash my face rather than the 10-15 bottles of soaps, detergents and cleaners I used to bring.

How Does It Clean?
Branch Basics is made with just a few ingredients, including:
Purified water, fatty acids, , organic alcohol, folic acid, minerals and enzymes derived from edible and seed-bearing plants.
There are no toxic chemicals, no PVCs, no chlorine, no harmful ingredients – ever!
The enzymes in Branch Basics help to penetrate and break up stains and oils into soluble, biodegradable components without the use of harsh or toxic solvents or cleaning agents. It’s REALLY all-natural and non-toxic.
The key is that all ingredients are food-grade (and non-GMO) as opposed to industrial-grade (like most conventional cleaners). That means Branch Basics is human-safe and non-toxic if ingested. It’s safe for humans, pets and the environment. You don’t need to hide it from the kids or lock it up like Fort Knox. And if you have chemical allergies or sensitivities or compromised immune systems, you’ll be just fine. Read more about why to choose Branch Basics.
How Branch Basics Helped Me
And let me just say it REALLY cleans. You would never think something so natural and non-toxic could actually clean well but it really can.
Here’s a perfect example… I let the kids eat some foods in the car (like organic popcorn and fresh fruit) since we’re always on the go. But I don’t have leather seats, nor did I treat it with anything because I wanted to avoid all the chemicals.
Well take a look at my back seat. I’m a bit embarrassed to show how dirty it is. From little feet stepping all over the cushions to spilled drinks and dirty, sticky hands on the seats – my car upholstery has taken a beating. I’ve tried other natural carpet and upholstery cleaners. I’ve even tried getting them cleaned at my local car wash. But all to no avail. The stains have been there for years.
But then I tried a 1:5 solution of Branch Basics and generously sprayed down the seats. I let it sit in for a minute and then I scrubbed away. It took me about 10 minutes to alternate between spraying and scrubbing these seats, but then when it dried it was like magic. Virtually all of the stains came out. In fact, my seats looked like a completely different color. They looked brand new. It was amazing how well the natural enzymes in Branch Basics worked to get out stains that have been there for years.
I’m thrilled at the results and cleaned all the upholstery in my car. And now I don’t mind little feet all over my car seats again because I KNOW the stains will come out.
Why It’s Economical
Save time and money by buying one cleaning product. You won’t have to make trips to multiple stores or order from multiple online sources. Branch Basics is an all-in-one cleaning product that will replace most of your personal and household cleaners.
Branch Basics is a concentrate. For most all-purpose cleaning, dilute 5 parts of water to 1 part of Branch Basics. That breaks down to one gallon of Branch Basics concentrate = 24 all-purpose spray bottles (32 oz. each) for about $3 a bottle. That’s cheaper than most all-natural cleaners in the market.
Or you could use 1 tablespoon of concentrate for a load of laundry. That means one gallon of Branch Basics concentrate = 256 loads of laundry for about 33 cents a load.
How Branch Basics is Eco Friendly
One of my favorite things about Branch Basics is that it’s safe for humans and safe for the environment. It’s completely biodegradable and there are no byproducts or waste in production. Everything is used and there’s virtually no trash created in the process of making Branch Basics.
Here’s the best quote from the Branch Basics website on how they handle spills at their manufacturing plant:
If there is any spillage – we just add water and clean the floors.
I LOVE that. There’s no hazmat suit or chemicals required for clean up. Just a bit of water. In fact, the manufacturing plant doesn’t even have chemicals for cleaning – only water is used to rinse tanks and clean equipment.
In addition, Branch Basics operates on very little electricity to produce the non-toxic cleaners. The company spends only about $50 a month. Unbelievable right? It’s true. There are no ingredients to heat up or building to cool down.
