For a Sparkling Bathroom

Advantages: cleans well, makes light work of dirt, CHEAP
Disadvantages: Leaves a smell on hands after use

...When I got to the checkout on my last shopping trip I suddenly remembered that I had forgotten to get my usual multi purpose wipes so asked hubby to go and grab a packet. Now I have been using the same brand for a very long time but for some reason hubby could not remember which ones they were and came back with these ones. I did let him off though as I did need them for the bathroom and decided I would try these instead. ~~THE PACKET~~ The wipes come in a flat packet which is very similar to a packet of baby wipes. It is blue in colour and has the product name at the top with a picture of a shiny bathroom and under this is a red rectangle which contains the claims that these wipes will remove soap scum and control the build up of lime scale. The back of the packet has a white rectangle down the left hand side which has all...

Review of Tesco Bathroom Wipes

Bathroom Mousse

Advantages: Works well with a little scrubbing
Disadvantages: Use a lot at once

...I bought this on recommendation from a friend and colleague, who uses it for cleaning at work as well as at home. She said it does the job where other cleaners are just not good enough, so I promptly went out and bought some. I paid £1.05 in Tesco, which I thought was surprisingly cheap for a big name brand like Cif. Cif claim that this bathroom mousse gives brilliant results with minimum effort. You just need to spray the mousse on, leave it 5-10 minutes, and rinse it off. It's suitable for use on plastic, enamel and chrome surfaces. The mousse comes in a tall cylindrical can with a see-through lime green domes lid. The top has the usual mousse-can spray, with a button at one side of the nozzle, which you just press down and out squirts the mousse. It's really easy to use and to direct the spray where you want it. It's easy...

Review of Jif Bathroom Mousse

Bathroom Wonder Wipes

Advantages: Easy to use, Very effective, Good value.
Disadvantages: Not to widely available, yet.

...I hate cleaning bathrooms. I usually find that most bathroom cleaners, get on my chest and make me cough and splutter. They are normally to strong and make me feel ill. I am always on the look out for new products, and I am always willing to try new things! I spotted this product, whilst I was out and about, shopping, and having used this brand of cleaning products before, decided it was time to invest in the bathroom cleaner. I have had no grieviences with this brand of cleaning products and have always found them to be effective and less harsh than others. **********************PACKAGING*********************** This product comes in a pale blue plastic wrapper, with a resealable flap. On the front of the packet, there are four little round pictures, that tell you and show you, what these wipes can be used on. Underneath this...

Review of Duzzit Bathroom Wipes

What's In Your Bathroom?

Advantages: Great rhyming text and humorous illustrations
Disadvantages: Too Short!!

...This is a brilliant humorous tale of what really happens in the bathroom at night when all of the creepy-crawlies come out to play! ~ The story ~ It begins with a 'human' peeping in to the darkened bathroom and all he/ she could see were lots and lots of yellow eyes peering back at him / her. 'When I peeped around the bathroom door. I couldn't believe the things I saw.....' And so begins a humorous account of what the minibeasts in the bathroom are doing: ' A caterpillar was washing his hair with my shampoo - I don't think that's fair.' 'An earwig was using Dad's aftershave. A woodlouse saw me and started to wave.' It also includes a ladybird skiing down the bath, a beetle singing in the shower, a centipede giving itself a manicure, a spider bungee jumping from the sink and ants using the sink as a skating rink etc...

Review of Beetle in the Bathroom - Brian Moses

DolphinBathrooms

Advantages: They do it all for you
Disadvantages: Its expensive

...Firstly, we fancied a Dolphin Bathroom so we phoned and booked a home visit for a "designer". We got a cocky sales rep who thought we couldnt afford the bathroom and so couldnt be bothered to do the sale (we had just moved in and everywhere was a bit of a mess). So we phoned again and asked for another person to visit, this time we got a rather pleasant gent, who talked us through our purchase. He knew what he was talking about, and his sales technique was more of a gently push than all out pressure. It took about 2 hours. Anyway, within two weeks someone came to survey the property and ensure that what we wanted was actually feasible. That too took about 2 hours. The following week, the entire bathroom turned up - on a saturday. I mean everything, cabinets, bath, toilet, sink, tiles - all of it. After 3 weeks of having...

Review of Dolphin Bathrooms

Bathroom Fiasco

Advantages: None
Disadvantages: Terrible customer service, shoddy workmanship

...We had been looking forward to having our new bathroom as the one in our recently purchased home looked like it had been there before the house was build in the sixties! We chose Dolphin as they are a well known company and we had had one of their showers in our previous house which served us well for nine years. However I would never ever use the company again. Detailing all of the problems we had would make for a longer read than War and Peace so I will summarise below: 1. 13 days without a bath or shower 2. 6 days without a functioning toilet 3. 4 days staying in all day waiting for fitters who did not turn up (including two days taken off work causing loss of earnings) 4. 2 days of raw sewage running down the outside of the house 5. Water coming through the ceiling below the bathroom 6. A floor to ceiling crack in a wall...

Review of Dolphin Bathrooms

DOLPHIN BATHROOM INSTALLATION

Advantages: NONE
Disadvantages: TOO MANY TO MENTION

...KITCHEN CEILING REPLACED AND REPAINTED, ALL THIS THREE DAYS BEFORE XMAS. THIS WASN'T REPAIRED UNTIL MID JANUARY AND THE BATHROOM HAD TO BE STRIPPED AND RE INSTALLED. THEY DO NOT PAY COMPENSATION ONLY GESTURES OF GOODWILL NOR WILL THEY ADMIT LIABILITY AS THE JOB IS CARRIED OUT BY SUBCONTRACTORS WHO SUBCONTRACT OTHERS (eg ELECTRICIANS ,PLASTERERS etc). ON COMPLETING OUR INSTALLATION OUR INITIAL CONTRACTOR STATED THAT THE GOODS USED BY DOLPHIN WERE VERY POOR QUALITY AND PRICED AT THE WER END OF THE MARKET. I WOULDN'T TOUCH THIS LOT WITH A BARGE POLE........STAY CLEAR...

Review of Dolphin Bathrooms

Don't use Dolphin Bathrooms

Advantages: None
Disadvantages: Price, poor fitting and even poorer customer after service

...I have had a really bad experience with Dolphin Bathrooms (March 2008). The quote was on the high side but I was assured that the quality was worth it. Despite the fact that the designer/surveyor and delivery office being informed of my limited storage all of the equipment was delivery 2 1/2 week before installation (I live in a flat) which was really inconvenient. I was assured that installation is carried out by employees of Dolphins, this is not the case the installation was done by a local plumber who done a really bad job and worked strange hours, i,e Mothering Sunday! And hassled me after the installation because he hadn't been paid as I wasn't happy with the work. I was charged for an outside tower and for the walls and ceiling to be dry lined and skimmed this didn't happen ( I still haven't had a refund) in fact...

BE WARNED DOLPHIN BATHROOMS

Advantages: A good way to waste money
Disadvantages: List too long to fit in this space

...My experience with Dolphin Bathrooms has been a nightmare. My bathroom was redesigned and fitted from 12-19 Feb 2002. To date I have got nowhere with the Customer Service Team, they are not interested, but I wont be giving up They forgot to secure a pipe in the attic properly, so after a few weeks the complete contents of the tank cascaded into my daughters bedroom as the pipe to the tank burst, I have to replace the ceiling in the bedroom, redecorate, buy a new carpet and underlay, buy a new bed, bedding etc etc. IN ADDITION to this, the bathroom has been badly designed. When the shower is used, it runs down the bare plaster walls, and this is bubbling and disintegrating. The toilet and bathroom doors do not close properly after their fitter rehung them. The electrics kept shorting out, the sink and the bath do not match. They...

Review of Dolphin Bathrooms

Even works on lazy people's bathroom

Advantages: works amazingly well; smells nice
Disadvantages: need to apply it perfectly

...I knew that my bathroom need a "bit" of a clean when a Nic, a student, came to visit me and told me that my bathroom was the mingingest bathroom she had ever seen. Given that we used to share a house and our old bathroom could well have been condemned by Health and safety I was a little taken aback. I took a look and realised that over the course of 6 months the white plastic bath had somehow acquired a layer of dark grey stuff. This stuff was not slimy, not sticky exactly but would not shift-even when I poured bleach on it and let it soak. (apologies for the description but you must know what i was up against.) I bought myself a bottle of flash bathroom gel because it sounded easy to use. Took it home and followed the instructions which were: pour it on leave for a minute (longer is persistent) Rinse off I followed step 1...
