Advantages: Theoretical - easy to clean, no work required

Disadvantages: Strong vapours/smells. Find myself having to do the job twice.

The product:
As can be assumed from the title of the product, this is designed for bathrooms. You are able to use the product on baths, showers, sinks, tiles, and taps. It is also advertised as easily removing soapscum and limescale.

The instructions are simple: you spray onto a surface, leave for 1 minute and rinse away. Gone are the days of scrubbing and wiping surfaces - in theory.

My experience:
Having used it, my feeling is that this product is more of a 'refresher' than actually a product that will get rid of dirt and clean surfaces. I haven't notice much difference in the condition of my bathroom using this product alone. In fact, I've had to use more cleaning equipment like the old standard Cif cream.

I would also say is that if you apply this, make sure the room is well ventilated. I feel this product gives off strong smells and vapours. My small bathroom window doesn't cope well with it and vapours/smells linger for much of the day.

Would I recommend it?
My advice, should you wish to use it, clean the bathroom with more thorough items, where scrubbing and wiping down may be required. Then, this product can be used on a daily basis to refresh the bathroom.

However, as a 'refresher', you have to question whether it's worth the money. I don't feel that I get any benefit from using it. I like the theory behind it and if it was able to deliver upon this simple, easy to use, no work required ethos, then yes I would happily suggest it to people. I haven't found it does it.

Finally, there is potential here and it is for this reason that I've given three stars.

Summary: A cleaning product that doesn't quite clean.
