The product, in the report: Mr. Clean 2x Concentrated All Purpose Cleaner / Cleaning Liquid Scent: Unstopables

I am writing to formally report a life-threatening safety hazard regarding Mr. Clean 2x Concentrated All Purpose Cleaner (Unstopables Scent), manufactured by Procter & Gamble. Product Details: Product Name: Mr. Clean 2x Concentrated All Purpose Cleaner / Cleaning Liquid Scent: Unstopables Barcode/UPC: 3077218552 Description of Hazard: The current labeling is dangerously inadequate. While the front of the bottle prominently displays “2x Concentrated,” the critical instruction to dilute before use is relegated to small print. When used undilutedas occurred at my workplacethis product off-gasses hazardous chemicals that do not easily dissipate, especially in non-ventilated areas like bathrooms. Injury/Incident Details: Medical Emergency: I have been forced to visit the Emergency Room multiple times, most recently on April 4, 2026, due to anaphylaxis and throat closure caused by exposure to this product. Long-term Impact: I have developed severe chemical hypersensitivity that has rendered me unable to work for weeks. Expert Verification: Poison Control has confirmed that the ingredients in this concentrated formula are known causes of these severe respiratory and allergic reactions when not properly diluted. Requested Action: I am requesting that the CPSC investigate this product for a mandatory labeling change or recall. The “Dilute Before Use” instruction must be as clear and prominent as the “2x Concentration” branding. Consumers and cleaning staff are currently at risk of permanent respiratory damage or death due to the lack of a conspicuous warning. I have retained the product bottle and medical documentation for your investigation.

The product, in the report: Mr. Clean Magic Eraser 2 in 1 with [REDACTED] Lavender - 11 magic erasers-sponge

Mr Clean Bath Magic Eraser - caused swollen lips, hives and anaphylactic allergic reaction without touching product. The magic erasers were still in the box stored in the bathroom. I had experienced continuous reactions for 2 weeks before realizing the product was the culprit. After removing the box of product from my bathroom cabinet, my allergic reactions stopped. This product is dangerous as it caused a life threatening allergic reaction without even touching the product but by continuous exposure to the scent/fragrance in the product. My anaphylactic symptoms were mild. My throat was swollen and I lost my voice. I also had whole body hives and swollen lips. This happened on and off throughout the whole 2 weeks of exposure as my bathroom is next to my bedroom. This product is dangerous as it can be life threatening to people who are sensitive to the chemicals used to create the cleaner & fragrance/scent.

The company’s comments, in its own words

(5/1/2025) The Procter & Gamble Company: Thank you for reaching out to both the Consumer Product Safety Commission and our Consumer Relations regarding the Mr. Clean Magic Eraser in the Lavender scent. We’re sorry to hear about your experience.
Please know, Mr. Clean is dedicated to providing safe, high-quality products, and we take reports of this nature very seriously. As part of our dedication to providing safe and effective products, P&G routinely investigates product complaints to ensure our processes continue to produce products meeting our high standards of quality. We appreciate your loyalty to Mr. Clean and again, we’re sorry to hear of this experience. Please know we also shared this with our Health & Safety Team and the rest of our Mr. Clean Team.
We understand some consumers may have unique sensitivities to some of the ingredients used in everyday products. Identifying the reasons for sensitivity to a consumer product ingredient can be difficult, so we suggest working with a physician regarding any medical questions. You can access the ingredients, including fragrance ingredients, and function of the ingredients in Mr. Clean by visiting https://smartlabel.org/. We’d also like to assure you that our Procter & Gamble products are formulated with great care and attention to safety. Our formulators consider our stringent internal safety standards for every ingredient. Additionally, we maintain an ongoing safety monitoring program. For more information on the ingredients in and our ingredient review process for our products, please see: https://us.pg.com/ingredients/.
We also wanted to share we make Mr. Clean Magic Eraser products that do not contain any cleanser or scent. This would allow you the great cleaning powers of the melamine resin foam the eraser is made of. The foam is simply water-activated micro-scrubbers that penetrate surface grooves virtually anywhere grime is trapped to remove built-up soap scum, grease, and surface dirt. We hope you’ll visit our website for more information https://www.mrclean.com/en-us/shop-products/magic-erasers/magic-eraser-extra-durable
We appreciate your reaching out regarding Mr. Clean and wish you the best.

The company’s comments, in its own words

(10/19/2016) The Procter & Gamble Company: Thank you for your recent notification regarding the alleged accidental ingestion of Mr. Clean Concentrated Multi-Purpose Cleaner by a two year old child. P&G is committed to safety, and we take reports of accidental contact with household cleaners and detergents very seriously. Be assured this has been shared appropriately within our company. Nothing is more important to us than the safety of consumers who use our products. Our front label contains the following: “Warning Keep out of reach of children. Caution: Causes eye irritation” Our back label contains the following: “Indications FIRST AID: IF IN EYES, hold eyes open and rinse gently with water for 15–20 min. If wearing contacts, remove lenses after first 5 min. and continue rinsing. If irritation persists, call a physician. IF SWALLOWED, drink 1–2 glasses of water and call a physician or poison control center (product contains alcohol ethoxylates) — do not induce vomiting unless they tell you to do so. Have the product container or label with you when calling or going for treatment.” As part of our standard practice, we regularly monitor the safety of our products, as well as our consumer comments about Mr. Clean. We will continue to do so. This new response supersedes any other previously submitted correspondence concerning CPSC Report # 20160930-10227-2147413508.
Thank you again for bringing this report to our attention.

First aid

The product, in the report: Mr. Clean Magic Eraser Cleaning Agent

The regional poison center for the state of NJ received 2 telephone calls in one day about a product exposure, Mr Clean Magic Eraser. In both cases the victim attempted to remove ink from his and her skin. Granted this is not listed as an indication for its use, but the package also doesn’t say it cannot be used for this. The label apparently does not warn about avoiding contact with skin and advertisement video shows user preparing the sponge and using it without gloves.

The company’s comments, in its own words

(1/31/2012) The Procter & Gamble Company: Thank you for informing us of the reports you received about Mr. Clean Magic Eraser. We understand your concern since you received two calls in one day. Please know nothing is more important to us than the safety of our consumers and we want to assure you this product has been extensively evaluated for safety when used on hard surfaces as directed.
It may help to know Mr. Clean Magic Eraser works by physically cleaning dirt off surfaces, like a pencil eraser physically erases pencil marks from a page. The physical friction of rubbing picks up the dirt and grime. When the product is used as directed, there should be no need to wear gloves (the product doesn’t typically rub across the skin of the hand holding the eraser). In order to avoid abrasions from rubbing across skin, the eraser should not be used for cleansing the skin. To help consumers avoid these types of mistakes, there’s a list of precautions on the back of the package - including a warning not to use it on skin and to keep out of the reach of children. We are sorry to hear of the problem reported while using our product and appreciate the time you’ve taken to bring this matter to our attention. As always, Mr. Clean encourages consumers with questions or concerns about our products to contact us. We can be reached by calling our Consumer Care Line (1-866-607-5535) or sending an email via the Contact Us page on Mrclean.com.
