- Reviewed in the United States on April 11, 2026Size: 12 Ounce (Pack of 1)Verified PurchaseI got this powder cleanser to try to clean my brand new 9 inch stainless steel pan which was burned to a crisp. This was brand new pan, which I was using to make dinner one night, but I got distracted and finally realized when the house was full of smoke. The bottom of the pan was black from baked on in oil grease. I was very upset. I tried everything, including baking soda and vinegar Ajax you name it, to clean it up. And then I’ve heard about this product so I thought I can try it. This cleanser is amazing. It clean my pan so well it looks brand new. It also cleaned another pot that was burned really bad long time ago with no trace of burn marks. I would highly recommend this cleanser.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 16, 2015Size: 12 Ounce (Pack of 1)Verified PurchaseI bought this as a recommendation from a set a stainless steel cookware I just bought; it was on the manufacturer’s suggestions for cleaning them. Call me an ignorant but I never heard of this marvel before. The name sounded funny but I came to Amazon anyway and saw all the outrageous reviews and gave it a try. U-N-B-E-L-I-E-V-A-B-L-E ¡!! All the time I have been using metal polishers and cleaning paste to clean stainless steel, with good results but sometime with a lot of work to remove some of the most stubborn burnt-outs. With Bar Keepers is not only a breeze but the results are way better. I cleaned all the 8 pieces set in about 15 minutes, and then I cleaned the sink and I swear it looked like the day we installed it 6 years ago, it was so shiny that you had to wear sunglasses to look at it. Given the magnificent success I decided to try it on a few other cleaning projects:
To clean the Outside of Anodized Aluminum cookware. Finally I was able to easily remove those oil spills that stick to the outside of the cookware with a few dashes of this product. I’ve used all sorts of techniques, hot water, liquid soap, powder soap even putting them on the dishwasher and the spills remained, once there and burned in they become almost permanent. But not for Bar Keepers!
To clean the burn out stains on the steel burners of a gas stove. If you are cooking on a modern gas stove and oil goes into the silver rims surrounding the burners, it will immediately burn and create a brown stain very hard to remove, the sudden chemical reaction on the very hot surface creates an almost enamel oily cover on the steel surface. Before, I had to use glass cook top cleaner, a soft abrasive pad and plenty of elbow grease to remove them, a real hassle. For Bar Keepers, a small amount of powder and water enough to create a paste, some rubbing with a cloth and done, like brand new. It is also great to clean the black iron grates and pieces on the kitchen
To remove soap scum from a natural stone shower floor. No deep scrubbing necessary, just enough powder and some water and it will remove most of it with light pressure. I had to use some extra pressure on some of the scum on the grout, but nothing extraordinary
In conclusion, an amazing product, probably the best all out cleaner available, countless uses, very easy to apply, no residue and very low price. And just strong enough to clean, soft enough to do not damage most surfaces
- Reviewed in the United States on February 2, 2026Size: 12 Ounce (Pack of 3)Verified PurchaseJust shined up some 30yr old Revere Ware copper bottom pots and it's amazing. 30 years worth of oxidation and burnt who-knows-what has been cleaned up in less than 10 minutes. Had to do 2 rounds of light coating of this BKF for 95% of the gunk to be gone and decided it wasn't worth going for the 5% leftover. By my estimate, I think I used about 20-30g of material per pot, so you really don't need that much. It immediately starts working within 10 seconds and the least damaged areas of the pots shined up orangey copper while the edges require scrubbing. Instruction says to rinse after 1min, but instead I scrubbed for about 3 minutes instead. I believe it's because the instructions say that it will etch materials so if there is any protective layer, it will likely be destroyed. It is mentioned that there are micro-abrasives within the powder mix, so you can essentially treat it like liquid sandpaper and this WILL scratch surfaces.
Because of this, you can probably restore some copper wire and pipes to a certain extent with this stuff, so it's not just limited to in-home but also slightly degraded construction materials. However, you will need to protect these materials almost immediately after cleaning to prevent re-oxidation.
Do note that BKF contains oxalic acid which is not as strong as HCl (muriatic acid) but will still destroy your hands if you attempt to clean anything with this barehanded. Work slowly so you don't splash it everywhere because YOU REALLY DON'T WANT THAT TO HAPPEN. And absolutely do not breathe any of this powder in. Be VERY careful with it. 3x12oz cans for $8.97 is a huge bargain. Probably won't last a lifetime but it's really handy to have some extras on hand, which is why I will have 6x cans of these.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 19, 2026Size: 12 Ounce (Pack of 1)Verified PurchaseNothing will scour your stainless steel pots or your glass cooktop better than Bar Keeper's Friend. It really is a kitchen essential.
- Reviewed in the United States on April 9, 2026Size: 12 Ounce (Pack of 1)Verified PurchaseI have used every product available on Amazon for the cleaning of fiberglass shower pans. After no success and lots of scrubbing I saw a review for Bar Keeper’s Friend. I thought that there would be little, if any chance it could work. It doesn’t scratch or damage fiberglass surfaces, it’s much less expensive than other products and most important it works!!! I followed the instructions and with much less effort than with other products, it left my shower scum and dirt free. I will purchase it again for my other cleaning needs.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 13, 2026Size: 12 Ounce (Pack of 1)Verified PurchaseNew to stainless steel pans and scorched them. BFK just worked and with minimal scrubbing. Only took a small amount. Easy to use. 100% recommends and will be trying it on every else. Had no issues with delivery or leaking. I would recommend wearing gloves and it stings if you have any cuts. Hands got dry afterwards.

- Reviewed in the United States on March 12, 2026Size: 12 Ounce (Pack of 1)Verified PurchaseHave used this for years to get stubborn grit off pots and pans, or lightly on sensitive kitchen tools that have a surface that needs to be protected. Works great on the small cover plates that go over each gas burner on our GE gas range.
