Advantages: Easy to use, gets rid of a lot of stains

Disadvantages: Doesn't work on all stains

After a rather unfortunate incident in which the cat saw fit to deposit her dinner on the stairs carpet, this was the only halfway suitable cleaning agent in the house. Technically, this is more suited to getting stains out of clothes but I was impressed that it managed to get this particular stain out of the carpet today!

***The Product***
This comes in the form of a spray, and is very simple to use. You simply spray it onto the stain, leave it for a few minutes and then wash as normal. As it is a fairly clear liquid in colour, it shouldn't stain your clothes itself (how ironic that would be!). The instructions advise leaving it for up to minutes, but I usually find that it takes longer than this to really get to work. In the case of the cat's contribution to the state of the carpet, it took around seven minutes but that was a bad stain!

***The Results***
Having spilt baked beans and ketchup down my top last week, I can confirm that this does somehow remove those stains. The red wine test was not so successful, as there was still a light red stain on my cream shirt after it went in the wash when I did this a couple of months back so this clearly is not a miracle worker as such. The sick stain did not vanish completely but it was much reduced. I should probably point out that the carpet in question was beige, which was a similar colour to the stain after this had been used. Other stains that I can recall that this worked on were hot chocolate and coffee, although neither stain came out 100 per cent.

Summary: Pretty good
