The cleanser not only took away the rust spots with minimal difficulty, but it returned them to their original luster!

The stains came clean, and it made the sink look pretty enough to eat off of.” — Kat Ferrari

A descaling solution that’ll break down all of the limescale buildup inside your electric kettle or coffee maker, because I regret to inform you that the interior also needs cleaning.If your coffee just isn’t hitting the spot like it used to, it’s probably time to run a cleaning cycle.

Amazon, amazon.com Promising review: “I had never even thought of descaling my 2-year-old Keurig before Amazon suggested it, but this stuff was cheap, I knew I was supposed to descale regularly, and I knew this kind of descaler wouldn’t be as hard to rinse out as the smell of vinegar.I honestly wasn’t expecting much, but the next morning it took much less time for the water to heat up and my coffee tasted twice as strong and rich as it did before descaling, which means the brewing temperature is higher now that the heating element isn’t caked with mineral deposits.Now I feel a little silly for drinking mediocre coffee for so long.” — Lenore

Promising review: “I have a small kitchen, and everything tends to get an oily, greasy film on it very quickly.

I don’t have a tile back splash or a range hood, and my fridge is right next to my stove, so the paint on the wall and the textured fridge get pretty disgusting.The tiniest little oil splatter seems to cover my whole kitchen.When these wipes arrived yesterday, I attacked my kitchen with them.They worked amazingly well! I didn’t realize how much grease was really sticking to everything until I saw how disgusting the wipes were getting .Luckily, they’re huge, so I was able to cover a lot before a needed a new one.I have very sensitive skin, and these didn’t dry my hands out at all.
