Advantages: multi purpose, price, good cleaning capability
Disadvantages: none
My ex partners dad is a tradesman and recommended 'Stardrops' to me as he uses it a lot on his jobs when he 'cleans up' after fitting kitchens and bathrooms.
He has used allsorts of products in the past due to his job but one of his favorites will always be 'Stardrops' because of this I had to buy a bottle and try it out.
About stardrops
It is a multi purpose-cleaning product. When you read the bottle you will be very surprised at the many uses for this product. These purposes include:
Makes everything sparkle around your home. Ideal & safe to use on... Baths, Carpets, Melamine, Hand Laundry, Cars, China, Floors, Windows & Doors, Hobs, Sinks, Mirrors, Tiles, Paintwork, Upholstery, Washing up, UPVC, Glassware, Worktops. Not many cleaning products are on the market that you can use for hand laundry and cleaning around the home. It is definitely the most versatile cleaning product I have used.
I tend to just use this product for cleaning the kitchen, sink, hob and bath. I haven't used it for laundry or my car however; I would happily try it out on my car but maybe not on laundry, as I do like them to smell like proper laundry products, nice and fresh.
Packaging
I bought this product in a 1-litre bottle. My first impressions were not extremely high. I mean to me it looked very plain and didn't stand out much from the other cleaning products on the shelf at the supermarket. It comes in a plastic bottle with a screw lid
The bottle is clear so you can see the colour of the cleaner, which is like an orange kind of colour. The product is usually used diluted however can be used concentrated. I tend to mix it with water. It does have recommendations at the back on how much water to mix it with. The smell isn't too strong; it is fairly fresh which I didn't expect because of the colour and packaging of the product. It almost looks like a product used by tradesmen.
Sensitivity
I was surprised at how little my hands dried up after using the product. I do tend to wear gloves when cleaning, however when I'm just cleaning the kitchen hob and worktops I tend to go without unless I'm giving it a thorough clean. My skin didn't dry out as much as normal when using the product. My hands get dry very quickly so this was a huge surprise for me.
Cleaning capabilities
I was very happy with the results of this product, much happier than any of the other cleaning products I use in my kitchen cupboard. The product cleans my hob really well even when food gets hard and sticks to it, which can usually be a nightmare to take off and very time consuming. The product was great for getting stains off my carpet and I highly recommend solely for this reason as it removed stains out of my carpet with not much elbow grease at all. The cleaning capabilities are definitely high and I can see why tradesmen like my ex partner's dad tend to opt for this product.
Star drops is great for cleaning glass, I have always found cleaning mirrors a bit of a chore because they can easily streak when you use the wrong products. However, when I used Star drops my mirrors were really squeaky clean. It is also great at giving a high shine on my sink, which once used it looks brand new again. I cannot recommend it enough.
Price
The product is £1.39 for 1 litre at ASDA. However, you can find this product at other stores such as Home bargains, which may be even cheaper. I cannot remember how much it was there and couldn't find the price online but to be quite honest if it isn't cheaper there it is still very reasonably priced at £1.39 for a litre bottle which is usually used diluted so lasts a very long time. It is one of them products you don't have to buy often.
Conclusion
I highly recommend the Star drops multi purpose cleaner.
It seems to clean everything so well, which is very rare with multi purpose cleaners- they tend to be too good to be true. It saves a lot of bottles been stored in your cupboard as you don't need a product for everything you can just get Star drops that covers nearly all the aspects of cleaning around the home and even the car. A little goes a long way thanks to it been a product you can use diluted. So it is fantastic value for money. Not a lot of elbow grease is needed, it is a very effortless product, which is fantastic and saves a lot of time cleaning and a lot more time putting your feet up and watching the television! The product is a great price and definitely is a product I will keep on buying. I love its cleaning capabilities and nothing cleans my mirrors, worktops and bath as well as Star drops! Highly recommended!
