Product Overview
Windex Original Glass Cleaner is designed specifically for cleaning glass, mirrors, windows, glass stove tops, shower doors, and all types of smooth surfaces. The well-known blue formula was developed to remove dirt, grime, and every day marks from glass surfaces as it leaves a streak free shine. Spray bottles are simple to use for fast cleanups around the house and the bottle used in this example has been made using recycled coastal plastics. As an everyday cleaner, Windex remains very familiar to many families who need to clean their reflective or glass surfaces.
Customers Say
Windex has been a great tool to clean glass, mirrors, windows and many of the smooth surfaces in my house. I’ve had a lot of customers tell me about how fast Windex can remove fingerprints and smudge from all of these types of surfaces with very little effort. I have had a number of customers comment on how good the streak free finish was. They mentioned that Windex would dry quickly and leave their mirrors and windows completely clear as long as you let it air dry after wiping it off.
I have had a large amount of people ask if this product could be sprayed on multiple surfaces in the home. The answer is yes. Most people who purchase this product are using it daily in the kitchen on glass and on the windows and door in the shower. The majority of the negative comments that I received were concerning the plastic spray bottle and not at all concerning the cleaning solution itself. Many of the negative comments involved problems with the spray trigger or the bottle leaking. A number of customers reported receiving the product with some type of damage to the packaging.

Bottom Line
The Windex Original Glass Cleaner is still an ideal option for normal use on glass and mirrors. The key advantages of this cleaner include: quick application, a clean streak-free finish and applicability to many household surfaces. Most of the negative comments about Windex relate to the quality of the spray bottles or packaging as opposed to the actual cleaning ability.
