OxiClean Miracle Foam Powder
Product description from the website: At last! The first truly all-purpose cleaner! The power is in the foam! Our revolutionary new OxiClean Miracle Foam tackles the toughest grease and grime all around your houseand outside too. Watch it work its cleaning miracles on hard-water stains, dried-on juice stains, grease, soap scum, road grime, and much more. You have to see the amazing stain-dissolving, grease-busting power to believe it.
I purchased this product today, at Wal-Mart, after seeing the amazing results on the TV commercial and could not wait to try it out beacuse I use another product by this companys Kaboom line that I will review next.
As soon as I got home I eagerly opened the bottle only to have my excitement plummet like the mercury on a thermometer in the middle of winter.
The first sign that this was not going to be a good experience was the fact product was hard packed in the shaker container and I had to use a knife to loosen it up.
I followed the directions to a T, even using hot water. The product did not foam as it was supposed to. Even swooshing it around did not produce much foam and there were lots of hard granules even after sitting for 5 minutes. I still had to scrub pretty hard to remove the grease off my stove.
The one good thing this product has going for it is that it does have a wonderful clean scent.
In the long run, I say save your money other cleaning products do a much better job.
Kaboom Bowl Blaster Foam
Product Description from the company website: With Kaboom ® Bowl Blaster, Foam Goes Up, Stains Go Down!
Bowl Blaster from Kaboom is a powerful activated scouring foam designed to clean and freshen your toilet, both with a brush and with touch free convenience. Bowl Blaster’s powerful cleaners work by loosening the tough stains for you, leaving your bowl fresh, clean and deodorized.
This is the product I hinted at above. I have to say this is by far my FAVORITE toilet bowl cleaner EVER!! I have never seen a product work as well as this one does. It really does clean the bowl without hard scrubbing.
All you do is put a capful in the bowl and it will foam up to the lip (if it does not make it to the lip they suggest you add a little more on your next use). Use your toilet bowl brush with the foam for a deep cleaning or let the foam break down and just flush for a touch up / freshen.
Con is that it takes about 20 minutes for the foam to break down so if you have only one bathroom like I do you have to make sure you clean the commode when no one else is at home!
This product is defiantly worth the cost. I can only find it at Winn Dixie here in the Daytona area. I am surprised that Wal-Mart does not carry it.
X-14 Orange All-Purpose Bathroom Cleaner
Product information from the company website: Introducing X-14 Orange All-Purpose Bathroom Cleaner, the exciting new aerosol that CLEANS FASTER…and BETTER than ordinary bathroom cleaners!
With its unique wide-area spray nozzle and easy-to-grip can, X-14 Orange provides faster and easier cleaning with surface coverage 4X greater than the leading aerosol bathroom cleaners!
Plus, its powerful formula is CONCENTRATED to clean more than TWICE as effectively.
I have been using this product for about 5 months now. I just found out it was made by WD-40! LOL
This is the best bathroom cleaner I have ever used. It does the whole job in little time. It even removes the soap and calcium build up on my shower curtain. I also use it to do quick clean ups on the bathroom floor (Why do guys have to miss the bowl?) I also use it in the kitchen.
It has a great orange smell and does not make me cough and gag when I clean the tub like most other bathroom cleaners do. (Remember that when cleaning with any bathroom cleaner make sure the area is well ventilated.)
It does have a wide spray with good coverage and the foam clings and does not run down the walls/shower curtain fast. Another big plus is the can will not leave rust spots if you happen to leave it in a damp spot!
Con I have only been able to find this product at Winn Dixie. Once again Wal-Mart has failed me. LOL
I highly recommend this product

I don’t think I can get those cleaners at our commissary – the one for the toilet sounds great, not having to scrub so much, etc. Have a great weekend!

Thanks for all the great info! I like using Lysol’s Basin, Tub and Shower cleaner… cuts through built up gunk VERY easily. Only thing is, it’s got a very strong scent. I even used it on my high-traffic entry way, and it broke down the gunk on the ground. Very impressed, saved me lotsa scrubbing.

This is a good idea. I’d like to give my review of the Mr. Clean Magic Erasers: they are miracle workers! We had awful brown stains around the burners on our electric stove. NOTHING would take them off. One quick scrub with the Mr. Clean and the stove is like new. I kid you not. It DOES take crayon off the wall. It DOES get every spec of dirt from the bumpy surface of the fridge handle. I say A+.

Thanks for the good advice…unfortunetly we don’t have a Wynn Dixie by us. Maybe I will have to check online. Perhaps someone on ebay will be selling it.

I love KABOOM! I use it for almost everything. Not just in the bathroom, either. It’s good stuff. Lately I have just been using Windex with Vinegar, and it does great things too. Thanks for the reviews. Kaboom can be found in our commissary, which makes me think other grocery stores may carry it or start soon. Thanks for the reviews!

ryn: yeah, I could do that with my PSP and/or Photoshop programs. There are times that I have done that, but I try to shoot where I don’t have to mess with the integrity of the photo. I’m a perfectionist at times… I drive myself nuts with my cameras… 🙁
