Advantages: quick and easy, suitable for a variety of surfaces and objects, can buy refills Disadvantages: not always economical, slightly odd smell
Flash does the hard work, so you don’t have to! How that little advertising slogan used to get on my nerves, and indeed, actually put me off buying Flash products. I’m not too sure why – normally I will buy anything for an easier life, especially where cleaning’s concerned, but put me off it did.
Until last month, when my parents came to visit, bearing gifts. As well as the ‘proper’ presents, mostly chocolate ... ...flash wipes. Were they implying that my flat wasn’t as clean as it should be? Hmmm – probably, I am not known for being the cleanest of people, and to be honest, whilst I don’t quite live in the state of squalor that some students do, I do make an awful lot of mess for just one person.
Anyway, I am now a flash convert! This little tub of wipes has proved to be exceptionally useful, and very versatile. The wipes are kept in a tub ...

Advantages: works fast, great smell Disadvantages: want to wear it as perfume
...a bright blue bottle of Flash calling me to buy it. I purchased it for 99p for a 500ml bottle, from our local Consumers Choice cheepie shop and left to do my chores.
This is a multi purpose liquid, it comes in different frgrances, I chose Ocean fresh, I needed something fresh especially when facing the mens loos.
I put on the works Marigolds and set to work on the worst toilets ever, the mens!.
"Oh god, there was an enormous log in there", it's ... ...being sick, and chucked some Flash down the loo.
Whilst I was waiting for it to work, I started on the sink.
I poured a little bit around the sink and wiped round the bowl. The smell was delightful, it really did smell like Ocean's. Much better than the old Flash I used to know in the 80's.
It removed all residue quickly, I didn't even have to scrub hard, might have to do when i return to the loo's though.
Well as a matter of fact, the culprit ...

Advantages: easy to use, cleans floors in a errr Flash! Disadvantages: none
...used on the floor. Flash you read my mind!!
I was in absolute ecstasy when I found these in Sainsbury’s. ‘The fast and easy was to clean your floors’.
Flash products are made by Proctor & Gamble who make other well-known brands such as Pampers nappies, Ariel washing powder and Olay beauty products.
The wipes comes in a plastic package with a reseal able top, when you want one you just pull out a wipe and the others stay in place. There are 20 ... ...You can buy a flash express sweeper, although I haven’t seen any around yet.
The wipes can also be used alone; this allows you to wipe up spills effortlessly as the thickness of the wipe absorbs as well.
Having gone over the floor with the wipe, I find it dries a lot quicker than ordinary soapy water. It also leaves the floor looking clean with no visible smears. Flash wipes are suitable for most floor types, except carpet (obviously!)

Advantages: Makes cleaning so much easier and they smell nice too. Disadvantages: None yet.
...and finally decided on the Flash WipeUps All Purpose refill pack. Now the reason I bought the refill pack rather than the plastic tub was simple really. There were more wipes in it, it was cheaper and the pack is resealable so I didn't feel the need to buy a tub just for the sake of it. Plus they would be stored in my cupboard so no one but me would see them anyway. The pack that I bought is bright yellow and similar in shape and size to most baby ... ...pack states: New Flash all purpose cleaning wipes easily clean all hard washable surfaces, leaving behind a fresh, clean scent. They combine Flash cleaning technology with a fresh lemon scent in a convenient, disposable form. Flash wipes are perfect for quick clean ups all around the house or when you are away from home. Usage Instructions: Wipe surface to remove dirt. No need to rinse. No need to wipe dry. For best results leave wipes in protective ...

...have just discovered the new Flash Shower Spray, and as the label says, you just spray and walkaway!!
Sure right you do, after you have used the shower, just spray all the areas, such as tiles, bath, shower, and shower curtain, basically all the parts that get wet and are prone to limescale / tidal marks.
This product reduces all limescale build up, especially as i live in a hard water area, I find this product excellent. There is no need to have ... ...Just like other flash products this definately lives up to the expectation you would expect, I have found that I don't have to scrub the bath/shower clean like I used to, and am hoping it will keep the shower curtain clean and fresh too.
Now I have discovered this marvellous time saving product I shall be using it all the time now!!!!!! ...

...my bowl of water – Flash All Purpose Cleaner which is made by Proctor and Gamble.
At the moment I am using the Ocean Fresh fragrance, which does smell really nice, but there are others namely Pine, Lemon and Pot Pourri. I paid somewhere in the region of £2.50 for a 500ml bottle. As with a lot of my purchases I usually wait until it’s on special offer and buy a couple at a time.
The instructions on the back of the bottle suggest that ... ...it really is a quick Flash in the kitchen!
The only other thing that I would say is remember to work towards the door of the room so that you can get out when you’ve finished and leave the floor to dry before anyone has to walk on it.
If you go away from the door you'll end up trapped in the corner waiting for the floor to dry!! I suppose it could be a good excuse if you're late for work? Maybe not! ...

Advantages: Cleans effectively, smells lovely, and lasts a long while! Disadvantages: Nothing
...purchased a packet of pine flash powder for the first time the other day. And boy, does it work! Made by Procter & Gambler, the packet is made from over 80% recycled material. It tackles tough dirt, and doesn't leave any residues. It also removes the toughest stains and spills, and removes dirt on contact.
I bought it for £1.44 for a 300g box. You can use it for your floors, worktops and sinks. For subborn stains, you can use Flash dry with a damp ... ...of Flash to 1 gallon of hot water. Or 1 tablespoon to 2 pints for smaller areas.
If you have damaged skin, take care in having your hands in Flash for too long. It contains less than 5% non-ionic surfactants, 5-15% anionic surfactants, and 15-30% phosphates. (Whatever they mean!!).
The product is biodegradable, meaning the cleaning agents are broken down by natural processes. It smells lovely, and has the fresh outdoor smell of pine. It leaves ...

Advantages: It cleans through all the dirt and grime and stays cleaner for longer Disadvantages: Can dry your skin, and has no child safety catch
...not doing the job,i saw flash bathroom spray on offer at asda's it was at the bargain price of 99p for a 500ml bottle so i purchased one thinking it cant be as bad as the others ive bought in the past.
I needed something that would get my bathroom shiny and clean, as having a partner who works with oil and grease all day does not help matters. I also needed something that was going to rinse away with ease as i have a small baby who likes bathing ... ...irritating her skin.
I chose a saturday so i had time to scrub the bath,shower,basin and toilet (belive me with cheap brands i was there for hours) my partner could then look after our baby. It says on the bottle to spray on soiled surface and leave for 5 mins, well i chose to leave for 15 mins so for me it was easier to clean. I went back to it not looking forward to the scrubbing, but to my amasement all i had to do was wipe over the areas with ...

Advantages: I grew up with it Disadvantages: Don't like the wipes
...house I bought the pine flash and proceeded to clean my house from front to back with it. And I've never looked back. Ever.
I love all things Flash: the bathroom cleaner , the powder, the surface sprays.

Advantages: Cheap, nice smelling, comes in other scents too Disadvantages: Not that I can think of
I usually choose the Flash cleaning range over any other as I think it works pretty good on cleaning just about everything.
I am a huge fan of the Lavender and chamomile kitchen spray as it has a goergeous scent. It is a lovely purple colour too which is quite eye catching.
Usually costing around £1.60 for a 500ml spray bottle it's good value for money.
This Flash kitchen spray offers you intense cleaning through grease and dirt, beautiful fragrance ... ...others as in my opinion Flash is a name and brand that I personally trust. It does the job it's meant to but in an above average way, my kitchen cupboard doors are always sparkling after using this as are my worktops etc.
I like the fact it comes in a pump action spray bottle (as do many others) and the fact that the perfect amount always seems to come out. A little does go a long way so it is a product that lasts quite well.

Advantages: Use on a wide range of surfaces, including wood, metal, stone etc. Disadvantages: Super soapy if you spray too much
Flash Clean and Care is one I had not seen before, so, being the Domestic Goddess, I just had to try it out. It states it is kind for all surfaces, including wood, stone finishes, steel etc, as well as you normal kitchen and bathroom surfaces. Being a little over zealous, the whole kitchen was in a lather, you don't need much at all, otherwise you will be rinsing for ever. One trigger spray is more than enough to do the cooker hob, sink and drainer, ... ...vinegar it certainly cleans up well, de-greasing very well. It works pretty well on things like oven doors, but I doubt it would clean the most grotty oven, that would call for something more specific.
Lemon and vinegar are not the most gentle things on your skin and it left my hands super dry, so keep a decent hand cream handy, or wear gloves if your skin is very sensitive. Pleasant lemon scent, doesn't choke you unless you are over zealous with ...

...happened to pick up some Flash spray bathroom cleaner one day last year. I was truly stunned. This is the first product I have ever seen live up to its televisual advertising claims as it cut through grime throughout the bathroom with ease.

If I had to pick a bad aspect of the product it would have ...

I've been using Flash products for as long as I can remember, starting with the almost origonal product.
As other companies have introduced new products over the years I think I must have tried them all but I keep coming back to the Flash.

Advantages: clean, fresh smelling, does the job brilliantly Disadvantages: bit more expensive than it's counterparts
I've tried other products in the past if I'm on a bit of an economy drive and tried cheaper brands and supermarket own, but this is still the best cleaning product on the market.
I've got enamel in my bathroom and it hasn't affected it at all and gets a great shine and clean to it.
The smell isn't too overpowering and is fresh and light, and does a fantastic job.
The spray gun makes it easy to apply to the surfaces, although beware of going overboard ...
