I am sooooo excited you're making a debut in the Big Apple. I can't begin to tell you how much I love Method and appreciate the company thinking of the environment. Harsh chemicals are just that, harsh for our planet, people of all walks of life and our precious pets. I'm shouting from the mountain top (well top of the 5th floor at work) thank you. Keep up the good work.

[Trish]

Can't wait to come by and see the store!

Sooo...when are y'all coming to Phoenix? Were really dirty here, I have to dust everyday!

I adore your products...even bring them to work. Shouldn't your office air be clean and healthy, too? So, when are you coming to Easton? We have a strong population here (Allentown/Bethlehem/Easton) with many NJans and NYers having moved here recently. We all love you and I'd love to chat with a Method SME (Subject Matter Expert). Please consider and thank you for all your good stuff and containers so great and original that other companies are copying your products....and containers. Notice other dishwashing liquid is trying to copy your teardrop style. Sorry...they will never replace your great products (and humor). Love especially your all purpose cleaner. Hard to believe it even excellently cleans my stove top. Keep up the great work. You rock!

[Eddie C.]

I'll have to come back over the bridge tomorrow. I was just there yesterday and I didn't know about this until now - I'll be bringing a can of Pledge with me to trade in. Keep up the good work!

[iedesign]

Awesome campaign!! I received the best Mother's day present today, the o mop [which I have been wanting to get] and more household cleaners. It's the perfect gift for me because I consider myself to be a sensible and sustainable being. I love Method!

[shelia marqis]

Im thrilled with this campaign!!! We desperately need one in Lawrence Kansas!!! We have many, many people doing great things to save the planet....but there are still those on the fringe that need conversion!!!

[DR Martin Miller]

Sir, I love your OMOP I have had 3 of them, but the handel keeps breaking off. I have 1700 sft. of wood flooring, it the best I have found so far, cant you do anything to correct this flaw in a great product?

[Anna]

DR Martin Miller,
So glad you love the OMOP! Please email info@methodhome.com and let them know about any breakage issues.

[Robin Duensing]

So how about Detroit? Or Grand Rapids?

[Kali]

Are your products all made in the USA?

I recently found your bathroom cleaners at my local target store. The toilet bowl cleaner smells sooooo good people asked, "what new scent do you have in your method defuser?" I thought that said it all! Love all your products, especially good for wood. My house is mission style and alot of wood. I cleaned my husbands chair, he said,the wood felt smooth, and had a different look. Well if he can notice. Thanks for all the great products!!

[Liz]

Wow! I can't wait to stop by!! I hope this is permanent and you guys have the amazing dryer sheets!!! They are so hard to find... and I adore them

[H.Y. Chason]

Wow, what an awesome setup!! Method is so great-- I got so much stuff for my house this week for full size items at that! 5 home cleaning products for only 20 bucks!! And my girlfriend loved the tote bag that comes free with the purchase. People, go (RUN) to the store and get 'em!

[MCB]

So I just stopped by and dropped off old cleaning supplies from my office, loads from my 4 bedroom apt and even gross old hair care and other beauty products that have been collecting dust as I've been making the swapout...I felt so great knowing they would be disposed of safely AND those toxins are no longer in my home!

Thank you Method for taking a stand!!

[William McMillian]

Love the products - can't wait to come by!

[steve soroka]

looks great, but a bit to far for me to make the drive from buffalo... :(

take advantage of this nyc peeps.

hello,
i've been a method customer for a couple of several years and was thrilled to see the bright method pop-up store in soho today. unfortunately i had a negative experience in the store with customer service based on a couple of technicalities which were not conveyed to me until i went to purchase my items. one of the two main issues was that the salesperson at the register (being the same person who greeted me when i entered the store) said the person i was paying with and i could not buy 2 bottles of detergent. i told her that i was not notified of this and the person i was paying with (who did not walk into the store at the same time as i) was also unaware of this policy. as the cashier was the same person who greeted me upon entering it seemed that it was the fault of the store in not clearly conveying this to us. she was only able to keep repeating the "store policy" and so i asked to speak to the manager. when the manager arrived, she also just kept repeating the same policy. i understand the store policy, it's just that this was not clearly conveyed to us nor were there any signs about it. if i had initially known that or there were clear signs it would have been a moot issue and we would not have both gone up with that duplicate item. again, as i felt that this was the fault of the store, they could have relented on one botthel of detergent and made for a satisfied customer. it's not like i was planning to use this technicality and come back to stock up on bottles of detergent. i was wandering the store for at least 20-25 minutes with my boyfriend and during that entire time neither of us heard any employee stating this. the second issue was that i could only pay with credit card. i wanted to pay cash but, again, there was no sign that said credit card purchases only at this store. okay, whatever, i could live with that but the fact that this was told to me just seconds before i wanted to purchase my items was mildly annoying. i'm usually so satisfied with method products and their customer service that this left me with a negative feeling about the company and its policy toward customers. there were a couple of other smaller things that i could have taken issue with in terms of the customer service and its inconsistencies. i just would've preferred that the policies were clear up front. please make sure that the salespeople convey a consistent and thorough message for the customers walking through the door. thank you.

Please please please please come to Seattle,WA! We love Method here! Please?

lsj,
Thanks for your input. I will make sure the store staff is aware of the confusion!

[Deborah]

I would love to see one of these in Philadelphia! I have been purchasing Method products since day one and will always go out of my way to find them. Your website has made finding the items that local stores like Target do not carry easy.

One design comment... The new packaging for the liquid dish soap is cumbersome to use. Even though the shape is pleasing to the eye, the bottle tends to tip over from time to time and, because of this, I need to keep the lid closed when not in use. This act poses an additional problem because the lid is not user-friendly. It is hard to open and close with my bare hands especially if the top gets wet. I must always grab a dish towel or make sure that the top and my hands are dry in order to make it turn. Thank you for letting me vent!

[Angel]

I am so excited to know you guys finally made it to NYC...i will be visiting u this weekend....i love your products so much i am even using them on my Business Angel's Maids...in NYC and NJ..great products, love every scent..you can reach me at AngelsMaids@gmail.com...see you soon!!

[tara taitt]

i heart the method pop-up store so much. i wish they could stay. it's so lovely to be able to get my method fix right in the neighborhood instead of trekking out to target where the entire method section is usually sold out anyway. :(

everyone there is so friendly, especially julie the super-helpful manager. please don't go...

i agree the dishwashing liquid container is a bit cumbersome. i think the karim rashid design is perfect but perhaps a bit smaller. i wish method would make more products in the ginger yuzu scent & also the lychee if they even make that anymore.

other than that, you're perfect & i love you. xoxo

[janice wright]

Love Method products. Was introduced to them through a friend, i always complained of having a headache after doing house cleaning. Since i started using Method product havent had a headache since. Thanks to whoever made this product. Love to clean and have that beautiful smell and no headache to go with it...

[Ray]

Please, go international. There isn't ay reason why other countries shouldn't help the environment in the best way too. I am from Brazil and eager to use products that are healthy to me, family, my pets and the world as well. I also wonder if you plan to expand the products to personal care and beauty also.

[Andi]

Thanks for the awesome party last night! Thanks, method!

I just heard about this new store. Congrats!

I run a small eco-friendly housecleaning service in NYC called Ms. Green-Clean (www.msgreenclean.com). I use many Method products and can't wait to visit the new store devoted just to your products very soon. I'll be stocking up with all the pretty and fragrant cleaning solutions to scour my clients' homes with.

every one of your products are amazing and leave with a clean fresh feeling!!!!!!!!! thank you method!!!

[Richard B. Wilcock]

I was doing some repairs/remodeling on my home early this morning and had the plumbing turned off so I could work on my pipes. Well, it started getting late, you know, time for clean up, so I broke out the Ol' METHOD. Wonderful product, been using it a while now. Anyways, near the end of my cleaning, I got a bit parched, grabbed a glass, turned the handle on the faucet to the "on" position, then realized "no water". Well, the store was too far, and quite frankly I was too tired. So, I looked on the counter and saw the Method, knowing that its "all natural", I poured a swallow into the glass, and began reading the label. Well, I read that it was "non-toxic", and figured "hey, if its non-toxic and all natural, it can't be that bad for me." I picked up the glass of cucumber Method, and swallowed it down. Didn't taste too bad, however far from cucumber. Anyways, I continued reading the rest of the label and then noticed, "if swallowed please contact poison control". I then panicked, looking for the phone number to the Method company to ask this...(couldn't find it).

If this product is all-natural and non toxic, why would I need to contact poison control?

Please answer IMMEDIATELY...ASAP...URGENT...

Thank you,

Richard B. Wilcock

Hello!
Let me start by saying that I like your products. My husband has a law degree and I have a college degree, but we could not figure out how to open the Method dish soap or the green Method hand soap. We felt really dumb! Marc ended up piercing a hole in the top of the dish soap. Help!!

[sarah homeijer]

Richard, thanks so much for posting...

Let me first apologize for any misunderstanding with our Cucumber All Purpose Cleaner. While the formula is in fact naturally derived and non-toxic, we do not recommend ingesting the product as it is still a household cleaner, which contains soap elements that could upset the stomach and a small percentage of fragrance oils that could cause allergic reactions in people with specific allergies.

That being said, if ingestion has occurred, we strongly suggest drinking a glass full of water to dilute the formula and calling your doctor immediately. Poison Control also has our MSDS’ on file and can give you further direction if necessary: 800.222.1222.

If you have any other questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to call or email us at info@methodhome.com or 866.9.method.

[Dorothy from Reading PA]

Hey please come to Pennsylvania. How about Allentown? Then Easton, Allentown, Bethlehem and Reading could all come.

[Karen]

I love your products but think you need to work on easier to use containers (more user-friendly). I, especially, have problems with the containers for children's products. They leak from the feet and you can't sit them down with the round head. Have you ever tried to bathe a child and try to hold a bottle of shampoo at the same time? Not easy. The containers are cute for the kids but not so great for moms. Just sayin'.

[Bunny Heck]

I saw Method Laundry Detergent advertised in Woman's World, June 2, 2008 issue. I am interested in your product and could not find how to order it.
Thank you, Bunny

[Henry]

Hey, I love your products. I especially love the unique shape of the plastic bottles which I make sure get recycled (will be mandatory in years to come). What I do to make it easier for the recycling folks who have to sort this junk is to separate out all plastic bottles and put them into a bio-degradable bag. One important tip for your products: make sure the printed labels are very easy to tear off, so half the work is already done before recycling. I always take the labels off except some products need a blowtorch to do the job. I also like that there is the choice of no fragrance and this should be extended across the line.

Oh my goodness!!!! Method is the best. I live in New York and went to the pop up shop on Saturday since it was the last day and everyone was so nice and friendly. I had 2 big bags full of toxins and the employees were so nice. When they saw how much stuff I turned in they gave me a whole bunch of FREE Method products. I had to buy a kit so that I could get the cool "plastic bag rehab" tote and they still threw in more free stuff. I took pictures so that I could remember the experience. The shop was very pretty and the set up was nice, the atmosphere was nice, the employees were nice. I hung out at the shop for over half hour talking to the employees and listening to them tell me about the company and what it represents and stand for. Can't wait until you guys come back again. The pop up shop was definitely a great decision that Method as a company made. I still have some more toxins in my garage so you guys better come back soon.

[DeeInHouston]

I bought several Method products to clean my house, and they leave a film all over everything. I'll take the toxic cleaners, because they work!
