Glisten Garbage Disposer Cleaner, Lemon, 4.9 Oz, 4 Count (Pack of 2)

I get these shipped every 3 months because I use them religiously. Every week my food disposal gets treated. Throw the pod inside the drain, have a little bit of water and turn it on. The satisfying blue foam comes up both sides of the sink. I leave mine for about 30 minutes and rinse with some water. Drain doesn’t smell and never had those sewer flies. Must have for every food disposal.

Works great. Pleasant smell when cleaning quickly. I’d recommend it.

When using this, my sink smells soooo much better and is definitely cleaner. It definitely is a good value for the money, and so easy to use. No scrubbing your disposer after.

For years I used the little Plink brand disposal cleaner balls and was underwhelmed by their performance because they'd give off a citrus scent for about a minute and then my disposal would go back to smelling rotten immediately. I found out about these from another customer's review on the Plink balls and now this product is the only disposal cleaner I use. To use these, you run hot water into the sink (not directly into the disposal) for about a minute or so and then you put the white packet into the disposal with the disposal off and continue to run the water while turning the disposal on. You do NOT open or puncture the white packet to empty the contents - the hot water and disposal blades dissolve the packet. While the disposal is running, the blue cleansing foam will rise up out of the disposal into the sink itself and when cleaning is complete, the foam will suck itself back down into the disposal and when this happens, then you know the cleaning cycle is complete and you can turn off the disposal. The packets are lemon scented and while the scent does linger longer than Plinks, it doesn't last more than about 5-10 minutes, but my disposal doesn't smell rotten immediately either. The major difference here is the cleaning power. With Plinks the disposal would always go back to smelling foul fast and the Plinks didn't clean it internally as Disposer Care does. After using Disposer Care, the disposal stays fresh smelling and no odors come back for at least a week. It truly does clean the disposal, but be aware that it doesn't really clean the backs of the little black rubber around the sink hole. After I use Disposer Care, I take a wet paper towel and wipe the backs of those - the cleaner breaks up whatever grime is there and makes it easier to wipe away. The blue foaming action is neat to watch, but make sure you stand back and not directly over the disposal in case any splashing occurs. The chemicals in this are major irritants and could irritate the skin or eyes. I like that for only $10, you get 8 packs, so these are a great value. We use them every 2-3 weeks. A major warning is that you'll want to check the disposal before using this product (I use a latex glove to reach down into the disposal) to make sure there are not foreign objects or large food particles. The second time I used these, somehow my husband got a toothpick in the bottom of the disposal and neither of us was aware of this and when I turned on the disposal, a huge blue explosion happened with the blue foam literally shooting out of the disposal and getting all over my clothes, countertops, and floor. Talk about a mess. The toothpick must've punctured the packet. Overall, this is a fantastic product and far outperforms the Plink cleaner brand.

I really like these garbage disposal cleaner packets. I discovered them at a local big box hardware store several years ago and have been using them ever since. They are really easy to use, just run some hot water for a minute or two in the side of the sink with the disposal, then cut the stream of water back to a small, thin, but steady stream of water water down the center separator and drop unopened single packet down into the disposal (it might need a little poke to be completely down inside). With your hands completely away from the disposal opening, flip the switch and the blades inside will grind up the paper like packet, releasing cleaner and a great lemon fresher scent that will begin to foam not only up and out of the disposal but also it will come up the other side (if you have a double sink) slightly filling both sinks. Listen for the disposal to sound as though it doesn't have any contents in it (15-20 seconds), then flip off the disposal and rinse the residual foam down both sinks. It does a great job of not only cleaning out food particles that have been in the sink catches but leaves a great lemon smell. These are great after you've put old veggies and/or been disposing of particularly smelling things like fish. For their function and price, I give these disposal care packs 5-stars

This is the best disposer cleanser I have tried. It makes big foam and a great smell. I really feel it does the job well.

I'm not 100% sure this product is absolutely necessary, or if you could get similar results from some sort of diy thing but.... these are seriously fun to use, and pretty helpful. I like that it creates a super foam that can clean both sides of that rubber thing. I feel like that rubber thing is where ick hides. This stuff isn't at all a perfume to just mask or neutralize odors. The foam seems to actually clean the slime off of stuff. So that your sink smells clean because it IS clean. Im kind of particular about the kitchen sink. They're seriously like the 2nd most disgusting place in the house. Using these once a week, in addition to keeping the rest of the sink sparkling, you could almost eat off my sink. Except I wouldn't. Because sinks are still gross.

These are excellent for cleaning my waste disposal unit. Recommended. Do read the instructions and make sure that you don't open the paper packet that the active ingredients are in - put the whole white packet in the waste disposal unit.

Works great really cleaned the garbage disposal well. Arrived early and had no issues

I've tried some of the 'home remedies' , but I recommend you buy this product - it really works well. They keep the garb-orator clean and odor free and are very easy and quick to use. We use the garb-orator a lot and clean it by using one pouch of this product every two weeks.

It might clean the garburator but I was looking for it to get the fruit flies and it doesn’t

The cleaner itself works well and I didn't have the issue other reviewers mentioned about old stock or hard/clumpy powder. But if you want this product, I don't recommend buying it from Amazon or any other online retailer that needs to ship it by mail or courier. The little biodegradable bags holding the powder obviously weren't strong enough to stand up to the bumps and jostles of the shipping process. Almost all of the bags developed a small hole and a lot of the powder fell out. It was a huge mess inside the package that spilled out when I opened it, then when I cleaned it up it stained my skin blue. So I would recommend the product itself, but buy it in an in-person store if you can.
