I'd buy Murchison Hume Products


And I'm guessing a lot of people I know would too. I appreciate the lack of harsh chemicals and like the designs. It's not for everybody, but I think the problem was more with them putting higher end products in the wrong markets. Someone shopping at the container store probably won't spend $9.00 on a cleaning product. I could definitely see the products working well in smaller boutique/specialty stores. Even department stores like Macy's.

I dislike the Clean Evolution name and the bath tub design--Max was right, it did look like a Muppet head on like that.

Marcus made a big deal about not being able to tell what the product was based on the icon, but failed to reason that people searching for a product--especially if they are looking for one without harsh chemicals--would likely read the labels and could tell from the surrounding products the intended use of each. I don't base my purchases on the logo on the bottle, but its contents.

Murchison Hume products seem to be for more discerning customers, not for the broad market. A cleaner without harsh chemicals will cost more no matter what. Someone who buys a gallon of bleach and a bottle of Windex for their needs likely won't switch over the Murchison Hume even if the price drops a few dollars a bottle because they aren't interested in what it offers when that costs even a little more.

I agree the name didn't bother me. Not everything has to be dumbed down to attract the dumbest of the dumb consumer. There ae plenty of products made by companies with weird names.

So you'd be willing to pay $9.00 for something you can buy for ~$5.00? I need people like you to buy my stuff on Ebay!

The ingredients were stated to cost the company 12 cents for each bottle. That is not quality and shows a tremendous markup.

In one bottle the ingredients are: water, sodium Alpha olefin (c14-16) sulfonate, cocamidopropyl betaine, PEG-50 Shea butter, sodium chloride, pathenol, chamomile, fragrance, Benzisothiazolinone, methylisothiazolinone.

These are far from natural.
