Don't get me wrong she seems like a lovely lady and does have some useful tips but AIBU to think she cleans alot and often. As a single mum I don't hardly have anytime during the day to do this amount of cleaning! Now it's making me feel bad that I don't clean this much 😂

Another reason not to watch it.

Mumberjack · 18/09/2018 11:05

I admit I was sceptical but her insta videos are quite enjoyable, probably because she has a good sense of humour and knows not to take herself too seriously. I like how she visits discount places, although the amount she buys (maybe unnecessarily!) will probably negate their bargain status.

This Morning is going to have Mrs Hinch in as a regular cleaning guru.

I hope she's got an agent negotiating her deals. It'd be so easy for her to be delighted and just say YES OMG YES PLEASE and accept whatever money they offer. But she's got over 500K followers that she'd bring to the show -- I hope she's got a really hard-core agent banging out some £££££ deals. Iron, strike, hot, etc.

Plus when TF is she going to post some more cleaning videos?! This fame stuff is really interfering with my Instagram enjoyment. 😜

I don't get the hype, where is the actual 'cleaning'?
It was funny watching her put her named cleaning products to bed a couple of times but once you've seen her stories a few times you've seen it all with her, not sure how many times you can see someone spray zoflora on the sofa or put 'buddy' to bed.
I started following little miss mops, TOMM and lynsey queen of clean and they are actual real cleaning accounts that you can pick up real cleaning tips as there are before and afters of things that are actually cleaned not just wiped over with zoflora. This morning would have done better having one of these ladies on. Good luck to mrs hinch though I guess she's just taking the opportunity like anyone would.

rainbowsandsmiles · 18/09/2018 11:43

Mumberjack - that's what makes her account I think, it's her stories that are the pull.

Mytype · 18/09/2018 11:44

So let the asa sort it out unless you work for them don’t worry yourself dears 💕

rainbowsandsmiles · 18/09/2018 11:46

Cleanerrates - a normal cleaning account on instead would be well boring though! Someone upthread said they watch a cleaning account that's in total silence. Sounds like sat watching paint dry. Dull. It's the personality, the getting people up and motivated to clean etc. If you know, you know. Grin

Queenofthedrivensnow · 18/09/2018 11:46

@WhatsGoingOnEh agree!!!

I love her she's very real. She reminds me of Stacey Solomon who I also love.

Mytype · 18/09/2018 11:48

All this plastic police, Asa police chat is so boring honestly if this is what you do during the day to comment on someone cleaning you really have pathetic lives I pity you lot! It’s cleaning for goodness sake cleaning!!! So what’s the issue? If she didn’t clean you would all be slating how dirty she is etc.

GrimSqueaker · 18/09/2018 11:56

Loving the barmy hinch army though getting more and more het up that someone dares question their idol.

Yes - I think criticising some dangerous mixing of chemicals is a valid point - but the barmy army decided to absolute wage war on anyone who mentioned that.
Yes - I think pointing out that putting flammable disinfectant on your soft furnishings is a valid point for someone to raise in a "errr that's probably not a good idea" way.

I don't give a damn if she's cleaning, having a birthday party for Zoe the Zoflora Bottle, or doing a salsa on This Morning with Dr Ranj... but out and out idiocy should always be pointed out in a THIS IS BLOODY STUPID manner.

And as for this instagram influencer advertising - sorry Army but it's not just your beloved that MN call into question on this one - they have a pretty non discriminatory viewpoint where insta-influencers and not declaring they've been given or paid for the content they're plugging are concerned... and since she seems to have a horde of mindless fangirls following her around and hanging on her every dishcloth who will pay stupid money for a cleaning sponge... I really think that she's one who needs to be declaring kickbacks so people might have a chance of exercising some critical thought on it all.

As for the "if she had a dirty house you'd be slating her"... if she had a house that wasn't all over instagram with a rabid army laying into anyone who "opposes" her (the way you all went on over the chemical mixing warning on TOMM was ridiculous and appalling btw) we wouldn't even know she existed - let alone be slating her.

Mytype · 18/09/2018 12:00

But why do you actually care this is what I understand she is a grown woman who can do as she pleased? What the hell is it to do with you. Why does it concern you flammable chemicals? If you don’t use them fair enough but it’s up to her!
You have your opinion and this is mine but no we get caused the hinch army! Hilarious!

MintyJones · 18/09/2018 12:00

@Mytype you seem a little hard of critical thinking

Mytype · 18/09/2018 12:01

So you can have an opinion on her but if someone questions or has an opinion on you it’s wrong? Sort yourself out

Mytype · 18/09/2018 12:02

Critical thinking she is cleaning for goodness sake! And you all going on about saving the world etc! It’s CLEANING! Not hard to think about

Cleanerrates · 18/09/2018 12:02

Rainbow - I haven't seen the silent cleaning account so I can't comment on that. The ones I've mentioned aren't silent. They've actually been badly trolled by the 'hinch army' I know a couple of them reached out to mrs hinch and asked her to put a public post up asking for the bitching to stop, granted mrs hinch isn't responsible for others actions but the fact she didn't even make an attempt to try and put a stop to it speaks volumes to me.

Mytype · 18/09/2018 12:04

Arnt you doing the same? Jumping on her? And she has come on her and asked you to stop because it’s affecting her but you carry on! Honestly girls

Mytype · 18/09/2018 12:06

I find it actually hilarious that you think mrs hinch should try and attempt to stop it when she has come on here herself and asked you lot to leave her alone and to not be so nasty but you all carry on but she is in th wrong for not confronting the trolls?! What?!

PeePeeHula · 18/09/2018 12:09

This thread is something else! 😂 She's going to have to shake up her USP soon as there are only so many times you can look at the same shot at a different angle. Good luck to her, but it's not attention I'd want.

rainbowsandsmiles · 18/09/2018 12:11

Cleanerrates - you maybe missed it but I'm sure I saw a story of Mrs Hinches the other day where she addressed bullying and basically said it was never acceptable ( can't remember exact words but she called it out) so not true to say she ignored any bullying.

oldgimmer78 · 18/09/2018 12:14

The 'silent' cleaner is @smellsniceinhere and she isn't always silent, but more along the lines of LMM in the sense that she puts up cleaning tips in captions, but doesn't make a complete narrative and anthropomorphize cleaning products.

MintyJones · 18/09/2018 12:15

@Mytype you should stop. You're barely literate so this isn't going to end well for you. I think it's a requisite of being a Hincher actually - you need to be a bit dense

I like Mrs H. No issues with her at all

MintyJones · 18/09/2018 12:16

And maybe google what 'critical thinking' means.

Cleanerrates · 18/09/2018 12:18

Fair enough I must of missed it, I take my comment back then.

rainbowsandsmiles · 18/09/2018 12:22

Oldgimmer - that's what makes her FUN, though! What with Minkeh, Pinkeh, Stuart and Dave lol Grin

rainbowsandsmiles · 18/09/2018 12:24

Oy, I'm declaring myself a HinchArmy member and I'm literate, thank you! Pretty nasty to belittle others too over their posting style and the way they write Sad
