8 Reasons Why People Are Ditching Their Cleaning Sprays For This New Enzyme Cleaner That Breaks Down Grime Before You Wipe

By Linda B.

May 05, 2026

Most sprays make your kitchen smell clean. But are they actually removing the food film bacteria can feed on?

Most people spray their kitchen bench, wipe it down, and assume it’s clean.

 

But what if the spray you’re using is only wetting the mess, while your cloth spreads a thin layer of grease, food film, and bacteria-feeding grime across the surface?

 

That’s the problem a new cleaning startup called Freddie has solved.

 

Freddie’s Multi-Purpose Cleaner is designed to break down food film, grease, and sticky residue before you wipe using the power of enzymes.

 

That means less smearing, less scrubbing, and a smarter way to clean the everyday mess ordinary sprays can leave behind.

 

Below, we break down 8 reasons people are switching.

1. It's powered by dual-enzymes that help break down grime at the source

Most kitchen sprays make surfaces look clean at first.

 

But everyday kitchen grime is often more than a visible spill. It can include grease, oils, crumbs, sauces, milk residue, egg, yoghurt, sticky spills, and dried-on food.

 

If that thin layer of food film is not properly broken down, your cloth may simply smear it across the bench.

 

Freddie is designed to break down that hidden food film before you wipe, so you are not just making the surface look clean. You are helping remove the grime ordinary sprays can leave behind.

2. Wipes Clean Without The Streaks, Stickiness, Or Greasy Film Ordinary Sprays Can Leave Behind

A lot of multi-purpose sprays seem to clean at first, but still leave behind streaks, cloudy residue, or that slightly tacky feel that makes a surface seem like it needs another pass.


Freddie is built differently.


Its dual enzymes help break down greasy and sticky messes before they get smeared around the surface, while the rest of the formula uses surfactants and cleaning agents to help lift that loosened residue away.


That is a big reason it is designed to wipe cleaner, without the sticky finish some sprays can leave behind.


The result is a cleaner-looking surface that feels cleaner too.

3. It’s made for the everyday surfaces people clean most

Not every cleaner needs to act like some heavy-duty industrial product.


For most households, what matters more is whether it works well on the surfaces that get wiped down over and over again, like countertops, sinks, cabinets, appliances, and tables.


That is exactly what Freddie is designed for.


It is made for the everyday surfaces people clean most, which makes it easier to reach for as a go-to cleaner instead of something that feels too narrow or too specialised.

4. It’s made without Made Without Bleach, Ammonia, Quats, Or Phosphates

Another reason Freddie is getting attention is that it is built for everyday cleaning without relying on some of the harsher ingredients many households prefer to avoid.


It is made without bleach, ammonia, quats, or phosphates.


For people who want a cleaner that feels more considered for regular use around the home, that can make a real difference.


Freddie also comes in a Fragrance Free option, which makes it easier for households that prefer effective cleaning without added scent.
That gives people more flexibility depending on their home and preferences.

5. It’s easy to use, easy to refill, and easy to keep on hand

Some cleaning products sound great until they become annoying in real life.


Freddie keeps the routine simple.


Just fill the bottle with water, drop in a sheet, let it dissolve, shake, and spray.


Because each sheet is pre-measured, there is no messy pouring, no sticky spills, and no guesswork about how much to use.


The compact sheet format also makes refills easier to store, so it is simple to keep Freddie on hand for the messes that show up most often.

6. Cuts Down On Bulky Plastic Bottles And Everyday Waste

Traditional multi-purpose cleaners are often sold in big plastic bottles filled mostly with water.


Freddie takes a different approach with compact refill sheets and a reusable spray bottle.


That helps cut down on the number of bulky plastic bottles many households go through over time, while also taking up less space under the sink.


For people trying to make lower-waste choices without making life harder, that is another reason the format is resonating.


It is a practical switch that feels easier to stick with.

7. It’s rated 4.7 on Trustpilot with  2,000+ reviews and a 30-Day Money-Back Guarantee

A cleaner can sound good on paper, but people still want a reason to trust it.


Freddie has that extra trust layer built in.


It is backed by strong customer reviews, a 30-Day Money-Back Guarantee, and a growing base of 150,000+ households.


That combination matters.


The reviews help show how it performs in real homes, the guarantee lowers the risk of trying something new, and the number of households using it suggests this is more than just a passing idea.


It is something people are actually trying and sticking with.

8. Freddie is currently running a Mothers Day Sale on their best-selling Multi-Purpose Cleaning Kit

My stove looks brand new again

I honestly didn’t think my stovetop could ever look this clean again. Years of grease, burnt food, and stubborn stains were completely removed. I’ve tried dozens of cleaning products over the years, but this multi-purpose cleaner is by far the best.

Jessica M. | Verified Customer

Cleans without leaving a sticky mess

I used this multi-purpose cleaner on my kitchen counters and was surprised by how easily it removed the grease and stains. It cleaned everything up without needing a lot of scrubbing, and the surface looked fresh afterward without any sticky residue. Definitely a product I’ll keep using around the house.

Brian K. | Verified Customer

Cleaned up better than i expected

I used this cleaner on my stainless steel sink and it did a really good job removing the buildup and stains without much effort. After wiping everything down, the sink looked noticeably cleaner and brighter. It’s simple to use and works well for everyday kitchen cleaning.

Amanda L. | Verified Customer

Works great on kitchen messes

Grease and food residue used to take multiple wipes to clean. With this, it feels like everything lifts off much easier. It’s especially great for kitchen counters and stovetops.

Less waste and less clutter

I love the refill system and not having to keep buying bulky plastic bottles. It saves space and feels like a more sustainable option. Really easy to keep stocked at home.

Rachel P. | Verified Customer

Simple but very effective

There’s no complicated routine here, just spray and wipe. But the results are noticeably better than what I was using before. It’s made cleaning a lot easier.

Olivia C. | Verified Customer

Definitely worth trying

I was a bit unsure at first, but the results speak for themselves. It works well, smells good, and does what it promises. I can see why more people are switching to it.

Ethan G. | Verified Customer

Cuts through grease so easily

I used this on some stubborn kitchen grease and was surprised how quickly it came off. Usually I have to scrub a lot more. This made the whole process much faster.

Liam H. | Verified Customer

No more sticky residue

With other cleaners, I always felt like I had to go over surfaces twice. This one leaves everything feeling clean the first time. No leftover film or stickiness at all.

Chloe W. | Verified Customer
