So which brand?

Breadth vs focus — and the right answer depends on the shelf.

FroschGo with Frosch if…

…you care about its focus. It plays fewer fields (0) but is hard to beat where it does compete.

Simple GreenGo with Simple Green if…

…you want range and the safe default. It ranks #28 overall and competes across 1 fields, so there's a fit for most needs.

We don’t crown a winner. Globally they may both be top-tier; locally, the category can flip the answer. Pick the brand that’s strong where you’re actually shopping — when a brand doesn’t compete in a category, we leave it blank rather than invent a rank.
