I am not a fan of cleaning as you can probably gather if you have read some of my reviews before. For those of you that haven't I am one that will try and buy any products that will either have to save me cleaning or make the job as simple and as quick as possible.

This is where I was shopping in my large Tesco store one day and I came across this Tesco own brand of Direct to floor cleaner in a pine fragrance. It comes in a one litre bottle and it will cost you £1.25, although I had recently run out and it was on offer for 2 bottles for £2, which is a 50p saving so I thought this was well worth it and purchased the two.

When you go to clean you floor you need to make sure that you have swept or vacuumed the floor thoroughly before applying the cleaner. You then apply a layer of the cleaner directly onto the floor. There is no water required just a damp cloth or mop and you just wipe the floor clean, there is no need for you to have to rinse the floor after either which saves a lot of time. Be careful when applying as a small amount of this cleaner goes a long way you do not have to have it all over the floor as you spread it around with the damp mop or cloth.

The cleaner is suitable for use on vinyl floors, glazed tiles, sealed laminate flooring and varnished wood. The Tesco Direct to Floor Cleaner contains less than 5% Non-Ionic Surfactants and it also contains disinfectant, dimethylol, glycol and perfume.
On the back of the bottle it says that you have to store the bottle upright and in a cool place, but because of the ingredients you have to make sure that you do not expose it to extreme temperatures and as like all cleaning products it needs to be kept out of the reach of children.

The pine fragrance is perfect for me as it is not too overpowering, but there is a noticeable clean scent in the air at the same time. This product makes cleaning your floor so much simpler as there is a nozzle at the top of the bottle that has small holes in the top and you spray the cleaner over the floor, the holes in the bottle lid make sure that the cleaner is evenly distributed and sprayed all over the floor ready for you to start cleaning. The lid is opened and closed with ease as you pull the nozzle to open it and push it to seal shut.

I prefer this to other floor cleaners that you dilute with water as I do not have a suitable bucket and had to use the kitchen sink and in order to clean the floor. I had to put the mop in the water and then squeeze the excess water off with my hand with was time consuming and had to be done a few times. I also had to make sure that I wore gloves, which I do not have to do with this as I do not have to touch the mop head until after I have thoroughly rinsed it clean.

This definitely takes the stress out of floor cleaning as you do not have to keep rinsing the mop and the floor, I was surprised that as you do not have to rinse the floor after use and was worried that the floor would be sticky, but it isn't. It is great smelling and leaves the floor looking shiny once dry. It also has a great price tag to match as some cleaning products can be very costly.
