Blog Introduction: I’m always on the lookout for cleaning products that are more natural and less toxic. So when I came across the Nature Lake Household Cleaner Sprayer Kit, I was intrigued.
The Nature Lake Cleaner Kit comes with three heavy-duty glass spray bottles, two glass cleaning tablets, two all-purpose cleaning tablets, and two bathroom cleaning tablets. You simply fill the bottle with water, drop in a tablet, and wait for it to dissolve. The kit makes two bottles each of multi-surface, glass, and bathroom cleaner. Refill tablets are available.
I was initially skeptical that it would hold up to my chemical cleaners, but I decided to try it. And I’m happy to report that the kit works great! The glass cleaner does an excellent job of removing fingerprints and smudges from my windows and mirrors. The all-purpose cleaner is perfect for counters, tables, and other surfaces. And the bathroom cleaner leaves my tub and sink sparkling clean.
Best of all, the cleaners are made from natural ingredients and cost a fraction of what traditional cleaners do. If you’re looking for an environmentally friendly and economical way to clean your home, I highly recommend this kit.
It can be hard to commit to a cleaning product without an up close and personal inspection, so let’s take a look at each of the cleaners in this kit in more detail.
A Bit About the Natural Lake Brand
Nature Lake tablets will get you started on the right path for sustainable, plastic-free cleaning with their comprehensive line of tablet-based products that are designed to reduce waste by eliminating single-use plastics while saving money in shipping costs.
The company is based out of Minnesota and also creates other eco-friendly cleaning solutions such as a foaming hand soap kit and clog and sandal cleaning tablets.
All of their products are made in the United States and meet rigorous safety and green quality standards, so you can trust that you’re getting a quality product.
Nature Lake’s cleaning products are made with natural ingredients that are safe for you and the environment as well as biodegradable.
Since there are no VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds), these cleaners are ideal for people with allergies or sensitivities. They’re also safe to use around children and pets, so you don’t have to worry about harmful chemicals in your home. Have allergies? No problem. These cleaning solutions won’t trigger your asthma or give you a headache.
First Impressions of the Nature Lake Household Cleaner Spray Kit
The kit was beautiful and felt like a gift to open. It was packaged securely, so the products weren’t damaged in transit. The bottles and tablets were well-made and looked high quality. I was impressed with the overall look and feel of the kit as well as the modern and playful branding. Who said green living shouldn’t be stylish?
The kit included:
- 3 Glass Bottles: I loved these bottles. They feel durable and substantial, so even if I dropped one while cleaning, I wouldn’t have to worry about it breaking. The bottles are also eco-friendly since they can be reused over and over again.
- 6 Cleaning Tablets: The kit comes with 2 glass cleaner tablets, 2 bathroom cleaner tablets, and 2 all-purpose cleaner tablets. They come in small individually wrapped packages so that they aren’t exposed to moisture or air before you’re ready to use them.
- 3 Stickers: You’ll get 3 cute labels that respectively say “all-purpose cleaner”, “glass cleaner”, and bathroom cleaner. You can adhere them to the bottles, but if you want a more minimal look, you don’t have to use them, since the cleaners themselves are three different colors.
- Instructions: I appreciated that the kit came with step-by-step instructions for how to use the products. This is always helpful, especially when trying out a new product for the first time. Not to mention, the instructions are ridiculously easy to follow. Seriously, even a child could do it.
How to Use Nature Lake Natural Cleaning Products
Fill the bottle with water, drop in a tablet, wait for it to dissolve, and you’re good to go! It doesn’t get much simpler than that.
The tablets are designed to dissolve quickly, so you don’t have to wait around for them to do their job. Just drop one in the bottle, screw on the lid, and shake it up. In a minute or two, the tablet will be completely dissolved and you’ll be ready to start cleaning.
I was really impressed with how quickly the tabs dissolved. The manufacturer says that they dissolve in 5 minutes, but I was personally able to dissolve them in less than 2 minutes just by shaking the bottle. It’s kind of cool to watch, actually. The tablet will start to fizz and then completely dissolve into the water, leaving you with a cleaning solution that’s ready to use.
Each tab has a unique color. It’s not overly saturated like some of the neon-green or blue chemical cleaners we grew up with. But it has just enough color to be able to tell the difference between each cleaner. That way, you don’t accidentally use the wrong one.
For me, there’s nothing I dislike more than a sprayer that won’t work or doesn’t evenly distribute the cleaning solution.
So I was happy that these sprayer pumps were well made and worked effectively. The sprayer works great and evenly distributes the cleaning solution, so you don’t have to go over the same spot multiple times. There’s a narrow spray setting as well as a wider mist setting depending on what works best for your cleaning needs.
Nature Lake Natural Cleaning Products in Action
1. Nature Lake Household All-Purpose Cleaner Tablets
I decided to put the all-purpose cleaner to the test first since it’s the most versatile of the three. I sprayed it on a few different surfaces including countertops, doorknobs, light switches, and toilets.
It worked great on all of them! The cleaning solution cut through the dirt and grime with ease and left behind a streak-free finish.
Ingredients: Sodium bicarbonate, sodium carbonate, alpha-d-glucopyranose, citric acid, acetic acid, ethanesulfonic acid, 2-(methylamino), n-coco derivatives
2. Nature Lake Bathroom Cleaner Tablets
I was also really happy with how well the glass cleaner worked. It’s always been my least favorite chore to clean mirrors and windows, but this stuff made it a breeze. The cleaner left behind a streak-free finish and made my mirrors and windows look crystal clear.
I had to use a few extra sprays when cleaning my windows, but to be fair, there’s definitely some extra grime on those glass surfaces.
Ingredients: Sodium bicarbonate, sodium carbonate, alpha-d-glucopyranose, citric acid, acetic acid, sodium salts, ethanesulfonic acid, n-coco derivatives, 2-(methylamino)
3. Nature Lake Glass Cleaner Tablets
Last but not least, I tested out the bathroom cleaner. It’s always nice to have a dedicated bathroom cleaner because let’s face it, cleaning the bathroom is never fun. But this stuff really did a great job of cutting through all the soap scum and grime that builds up on my bathroom surfaces.
Since I love taking baths, it gave me good peace of mind that I wasn’t using toxic materials right before I got into my tub.

How Did They Smell?
Few things indicate a clean home like the pleasant smell of botanicals in cleaning products. But unfortunately, most cleaning products on the market today come with a strong chemical smell that can be really overpowering.
So I was happy to find that Nature Lake’s cleaning products had a very light and pleasant scent. They definitely don’t smell like chemicals, which is always a good thing in my book. The all-purpose cleaner and the bathroom cleaner both have a “citrus orchard scent” which I found to be very refreshing.
The glass cleaner is actually scent-free, and unlike other supposedly odorless products, this one actually was! I was really impressed by that.
Were They Skin-Safe?
Yes, I did not experience any burning or itching on my hands after using these products. I also didn’t have to worry about accidentally getting any of the solutions in my eyes because they are safe for contact with the skin. Normally my eyes water up and start burning like crazy when I accidentally get cleaning solution in them, but that didn’t happen with these products.
My hands felt a little dry after use, which is to be expected with any cleaning product. But a little bit of lotion fixed that right up.
Is the Nature Lake Household Cleaner Spray Kit Worth It?
I think the Nature Lake household cleaner spray kit is a great value and felt safe to use in my home. So I’m going to be a fan and regular user from here on out! Their products really do work well and they don’t sacrifice safety for effectiveness.
