Why waste your money.
Edds red works fine for me cheap as Chips and its great for cleaning reloading dies especially if you are using your dies for cast bullets.

How strong is the odour? The performance of the cleaner looks certainly impressive..

Who stocks it these days, google search mostly links back to this forum from the days when the shooting shed was running?
Not too bad, smells like amonia to me but not overly strong. Having searched myself I'm not sure where to get it now, not sure it's still even available?

Convenience, and less things to store if I purchase a single item as opposed to 4 individual things plus the final mix; as space is at a premium in my workshop. Although, technically 3 as I already have acetone from my previous days when I used to do Cerakoting.
