Amco Rub-a-Way Bar, Stainless Steel Odor Absorber (4" x 2.25") - Dishwasher Safe Kitchen & Outdoor Essential for Garlic, Onion, Fishing, Hiking Odors - Natural Odor Remover

Not sure of the science behind this littlemetal bar, but it completely works. I gotso tired of washing my hands with soapto get rid of smell of garlic, onions and peppers which didn’t work but this weird looking metal bar instantly takes away these odors. I liked it so much I bought several and gave them to family members.

This works really well to remove onion, garlic, oil, etc. scents, but it does leave behind a metal-y smell. I prefer to have that than the food smell, so I'm pleased with the outcome.I purchased two of these, the soap bar and fish-shaped bar. They hold up for yearrrsssss, so the value for the money is fantastic. It's easy to use. The size is smaller than you'd expect, but perfect for how you'd use it. The appearance is nice, but I ended up needing a soap dish to hold and drain the product.

These bars are amazing! Keep one in the kitchen by the sink.

Pleasantly surprised on how well this worked to get rid of icky smells off of your hands. I've had mine for a few years now and continues to work, very durable and great size to wash your hands.

Works like a charm

This product really works. Removes onion smell from hands as soon as you rub in hands like a bar soap. Amazing how fast

So, here I am, standing shirtless in front of the kitchen sink, rubbing my sweaty armpit with a bar of wet steel and asking myself, "What am I doing?" So, let me think back to when I first purchased this bar.The [bar of steel] claims to remove foul odors from your hands, specifically onion and garlic. I was dubious. But, I have seen stranger ideas work, so I performed a blind test. I asked a family member to give a rating of 0 (no smell) to 5 (strongly onion-y) after I rubbed my hands with freshly cut onions and performed one of the following:1. No action - Hands rated 5.2. Washed with steel bar and water - Hands rated 2. Steel bar rated 4.3. Washed with soap and water - Hands rated 0.4. Washed with water only - Hands rated 5.*The family member was not aware of what technique was used. Fresh onions were used before each test and my hands were gently dabbed dry with a clean towel after each technique.Conclusions:1. Steel and water seems to transfer the smell of onions to the steel.2. Soap and water is more effective on hands and was required to clean the steel bar.3. It is simpler and more effective to use soap and water than steel and water...and soap and water.Some users mentioned that the steel bar was effective on body odors as well. So, here I am, standing in front of a sink after a delightful day without deodorant or personal hygiene, and preparing to stick my nose into my armpit after rubbing it with a bar of wet steel....:ahem: The steel bar does not seem to reduce the *cough* odor, and now the steel bar smells like my armpit. And so does my hand. This steel bar has failed to impress. My body odor is certainly impressive, though. So, let's try soap and water....Hey, my armpit smells clean! My hand, too! And it worked on the steel bar, too! Wow, this soap and water stuff is great! I definitely recommend using soap and water to remove foul odors. Not steel though. Unless you use soap and water with it.Might make a fun gift, though. Even better if you can convince the recipient to try it on their armpits and sneak a photo of them rubbing a bar of steel under their arm in front of the kitchen sink. Now there's a gift that keeps on giving.

It was a gift for our daughter in-law after her seeing ours and using it over the July 4th. I told her that I would order her one of her own. My wife delivered it to her today.
