- How easy or difficult did you find the Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner to use?
Fairly easy to use after the first couple of attempts; but the quantity dispensed seemed to vary from use to use.

- How effective did you find Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?
Reasonably effective, but didn?t deal very well with grease.

- Did you find that you used Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner more regularly than your other cleaning products or not? If so, how often did you use Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?
Less regularly than my usual products ? I was trying the kitchen cleaner and in general, if I cook, I tend to need to wipe up whole counters and I didn?t find the Touch-Up Cleaner effective for larger areas.

I also found it quite heavily perfumed so in areas where I would find it effective (for example dealing with drips in the fridge or microwave) I would hesitate to use it for fear of impregnating the food with the scent.

- The RRP for the Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner is £2.99, do you think you'll be likely to buy it again or not? If so, why? If not why not?
Unlikely to buy it again. I find it is just as easy to spray kitchen cleaner onto a cloth or a bit of kitchen paper and use.

- Mr Muscle Touch-Up cleaner is currently available for the kitchen and bathroom. Would you like Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner for other areas of your house? If so, which areas?
Can?t think of any other areas where it would be effective.

- What did you like most about Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?
I did like the fact that it was dispensed from the top, so didn?t drip.

- If it came up in conversation, would you recommend Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner to your friends/family? If so why? If not, why not?
Probably not, simply because it doesn?t fit with the way I clean things.

How easy or difficult did you find the Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner to use?
I found it a bit difficult & clunky, but I see from reading other reviews that I was using it wrong! I was attempting to squirt it onto a surface, and then wipe (the squirting was a 2-handed job). Squirting it onto a cloth on top on the nozzle should be easier.

How effective did you find Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?
Fairly effective: it got rid of toothpaste, loo seat grunge & water stains whilst leaving a good clean scent. It didn't touch the limescale, but not much does.

Did you find that you used Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner more regularly than your other cleaning products or not? If so, how often did you use Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?
No - used it for the weekly bathroom clean as normal. The daily bathroom wipe-downs were still with just water & microfibre cloth.

The RRP for the Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner is £2.99, do you think you'll be likely to buy it again or not? If so, why? If not why not?
Probably not - that is a bit more than I like to spend on one cleaning product.

Mr Muscle Touch-Up cleaner is currently available for the kitchen and bathroom. Would you like Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner for other areas of your house? If so, which areas?
No, kitchen & bathroom pretty much covers it!

What did you like most about Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?
It was a strong-ish cleaner that I didn't have to worry about getting on my hands (unlike eg bleach)

If it came up in conversation, would you recommend Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner to your friends/family? If so why? If not, why not?
Possibly - it is useful for quick touch-up cleaning due to the quick dispensation.

ehuver · 04/09/2013 13:12

When I was in the States visiting this past summer, my mother had a product very similar to the Mr. Muscle Touch-up Cleaner. I loved it and was wishing there was something like that available in the UK. Well...fast forward two months and I have now found it! I think this is a perfect product for the kitchen area. Having the option of just using a limited quantity each time I wipe down my counters/hob/microwave is ideal - less waste and lasts longer than spray cleaners.
My only recommendation or fault that I can find with this product is that I wish it were considered a "green" or eco-friendly product. To my knowledge, this is not the case. If this product came in an Eco-friendly version, I would buy a years supply in the blink of an eye.

Samichuboo · 04/09/2013 13:45
  • How easy or difficult did you find the Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner to use?
Very easy to use pump, just needs a slight touch and a good size to leave on worktop
  • How effective did you find Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?
worked well on all surfaces, no streaks left
  • Did you find that you used Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner more regularly than your other cleaning products or not? If so, how often did you use Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?
I didn't end up using it more than my regular products but did use it most days. I found that more often than not I would just reach for my regular spray as I could apply this straight to the affected area. It also says on the packet that to disinfect that the applied area needs to stay wet for 5 minutes, to me this is not touching up and my spray is more effective.
  • The RRP for the Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner is £2.99, do you think you'll be likely to buy it again or not? If so, why? If not why not?
This would put me off buying it as my normal cleaner is more than half the price
  • Mr Muscle Touch-Up cleaner is currently available for the kitchen and bathroom. Would you like Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner for other areas of your house? If so, which areas?
A floor specific one would be good as I have two dogs and a DD so am always mopping
  • What did you like most about Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?
Has a very pleasant smell and sits nicely on worktop with out looking out of place
  • If it came up in conversation, would you recommend Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner to your friends/family? If so why? If not, why not?
I would not recommend firstly due to price but secondly to the small print about taking 5 minutes of being wet to disinfect- never going to happen when its so warm!
starlight36 · 04/09/2013 14:23

I'm testing the Kitchen Touch-Up cleaner.

The cleaner is very easy to use. I was worried that it might release too much and be quite wasteful but it is easy to control.

The cleaner worked well on recent spills, as it has been designed to do. I needed to use my usual cleaner on tougher stains.

I used the cleaner in the same way that I would use anti-bacterial wipes /wet wipes to quickly clean an area.

The rrp does seem quite expensive. I am more likely to buy it if I see it on offer.

I think the kitchen and bathroom are the two main places where I would specifically want a touch-up cleaning product.

The product smells fresh and looks neat on the kitchen top.

I would recommend this if it came up in conversation.

JulesJules · 04/09/2013 14:43

My Kitchen cleaner has just arrived!

How easy or difficult did you find the Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner to use?

Very easy. I like the fact it's Upside down and you just have to press a cloth or kitchen roll on it.

  • How effective did you find Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?

Very effective and removing greasy marks on kitchen cupboards, cleaning taps and worksurfaces in the kitchen.

  • Did you find that you used Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner more regularly than your other cleaning products or not? If so, how often did you use Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?

More regularly - but I think because I left it out on the side for quick touch ups as the name suggests. Don't think it's meant to replace doing a proper clean.

  • The RRP for the Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner is £2.99, do you think you'll be likely to buy it again or not? If so, why? If not why not?

Probably if on special offer as I did li8ke it but it is a bit expensive.

  • Mr Muscle Touch-Up cleaner is currently available for the kitchen and bathroom. Would you like Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner for other areas of your house? If so, which areas?

I would like a window/mirror one.

  • What did you like most about Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?

Effective, pleasant scent, liked the design of the bottle.

  • If it came up in conversation, would you recommend Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner to your friends/family? If so why? If not, why not?

Yes I would.

Thanks for the opportunity to test it!

YourHandInMyHand · 04/09/2013 17:46

I received the kitchen product to test and found it very easy to use. It was effective and throughout this week has cleaned up curry stains, tea bag puddle stains, dried on weetabix and all manner of other kitchen calamities.

I definitely used it more than my usual cleaner - my kitchen has never been so clean! Blush I think this was partly novelty factor but also because I LOVED the lemony fragrance, and also I found having it on the counter on display encouraged me to use it. I've wiped down cupboard doors, the fridge freezer, oven sides - things that usually get neglected.

I would definitely buy it again, I thought it would be quite average but have been pleasantly surprised. I'd probably stock up when it's on offer though rather than paying the full RRP.

I may have to give the bathroom one a try too. Smile

The thing I liked most is the smell, it's much more natural than a lot of kitchen cleaners and not too overpowering. I also like that it is visually appealing. I usually store cleaning products out of sight but am happy to have this out on display.

I would recommend it yes. In fact I already have as people have visited and commented on it.

JS06 · 04/09/2013 19:25

How easy or difficult did you find the Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner to use?

I am testing the kitchen one, I took a couple of goes to become used to the new style of dispensing the liquid and wasted a couple of squirts at first but then it became easier and it's no trouble to use this now, I remember seeing manicurists use this type of dispenser for nail polish remover.

How effective did you find Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?

Really good, it's an excellent surface wiper and goes on easily, removes marks, stains and cleans up areas beautifully. The citrus smell is gentle, easy on the nose and very pleasant.

Did you find that you used Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner more regularly than your other cleaning products or not? If so, how often did you use Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?

I'm not sure I will use this more regularly, I wipe surfaces down when they need it, I'm not so sure I'd use the product any more just because I like it and it's there.

The RRP for the Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner is £2.99, do you think you'll be likely to buy it again or not? If so, why? If not why not?

Yes, I'd use this as I think it's a reasonable price.

Mr Muscle Touch-Up cleaner is currently available for the kitchen and bathroom. Would you like Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner for other areas of your house? If so, which areas?

I think a gentle floral fragrance cleaner would be great for bedrooms, halls and living rooms.

What did you like most about Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?

The banner saying that it kills 99.99% of bacteria.

If it came up in conversation, would you recommend Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner to your friends/family? If so why? If not, why not?

Yes, I would. I like it, it works and it's from a trusted brand.

mrscog · 04/09/2013 19:36

Right, I've been using mine (bathroom version)since it arrived last Friday.

  • How easy or difficult did you find the Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner to use? Very easy and also easy to get out of the packaging which is always a bonus!
  • How effective did you find Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner? Very effective and a lovely smell as well, clean but not too 'heavy' I find some cleaning products give me a migrane. Also, I found that one swipe of the cloth more or less cleaned off what I wanted to wipe up.
  • Did you find that you used Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner more regularly than your other cleaning products or not? If so, how often did you use Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner? No, but to be honest I tested it during a very busy week at work. If I had more time I might have taken a few minutes of opportunity to quickly use it.
  • The RRP for the Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner is £2.99, do you think you'll be likely to buy it again or not? If so, why? If not why not? I would consider it, (especially the kitchen one which I'm now intreigued to buy), it is on the upper end of my price range though - I'd be more likely to buy again if it was under £2.49.
  • Mr Muscle Touch-Up cleaner is currently available for the kitchen and bathroom. Would you like Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner for other areas of your house? If so, which areas? To be honest, I'd like just an all purpose one for kitchen or bathroom more than one for other areas of the house.
  • What did you like most about Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner? I liked the smell a lot, and I also liked the design of the bottle. It also fitted in well with the busy dashing around life that me and my husband lead.
  • If it came up in conversation, would you recommend Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner to your friends/family? If so why? If not, why not? Yes, I probably would, mainly because it's a new gimmick but effective. Also you can use it quickly without doing a full clean.
harrietlichman · 04/09/2013 19:39

Found it very easy to use, smelt nice and did the job, but how is it easier than just using a squirty spray bottle? To be honest I found it a bit gimmicky and though it did the job would not seek it out to buy it again.

IncaAztec · 04/09/2013 20:05

I am a tester

  • How easy or difficult did you find the Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner to use?

Easy to use but the outside cardboard packaging just fell off!

  • How effective did you find Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?

Very effective and I liked the smell.

  • Did you find that you used Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner more regularly than your other cleaning products or not? If so, how often did you use Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?

No, I wasn't too sure about using it with a paper towel rather than a cloth. It just seemed to soak the paper towel and my hand. Better for
use with a cloth I think. I used it a few times, but no more than other products.

  • The RRP for the Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner is £2.99, do you think you'll be likely to buy it again or not? If so, why? If not why not?

Its just not as antibacterial as spray products or abrasive as cream cleaner so I don't think I would buy it again.

  • Mr Muscle Touch-Up cleaner is currently available for the kitchen and bathroom. Would you like Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner for other areas of your house? If so, which areas?

Maybe for quick goes on tiles and taps in the bathroom.

  • What did you like most about Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?

I liked the look of the product, bit similar to handwash though!

  • If it came up in conversation, would you recommend Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner to your friends/family? If so why? If not, why not?

No, I wouldn't recommend over other products. Just not abrasive or antibacterial enough.

maddiemostmerry · 04/09/2013 20:11
  • How easy or difficult did you find the Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner to use?
I tested the kitchen one. It is easy to use.
  • How effective did you find Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?
It wask ok on very small marks but not for cleaning larger area's
  • Did you find that you used Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner more regularly than your other cleaning products or not? If so, how often did you use Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?
No,although i liked the fact i could put it on the window sill next to the washing up liquid. I still reached for my orange spray Mr muscle more readily.
  • The RRP for the Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner is £2.99, do you think you'll be likely to buy it again or not? If so, why? If not why not?
Maybe for taking on holiday but not really as part of my every day cleaning.
  • Mr Muscle Touch-Up cleaner is currently available for the kitchen and bathroom. Would you like Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner for other areas of your house? If so, which areas?
Can't think of any but think the bathroom one would be more popular/useful.
  • What did you like most about Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner? I like the container and ease of use. I hated the smell, mine didn't smell fresh citrus at all. It smelled musty and to be honest reminded me of a used scented panty liner!!Blush
  • If it came up in conversation, would you recommend Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner to your friends/family? If so why? If not, why not?

If I thoought it would suit their needs then yes. Smell would put me off though1

ef81 · 04/09/2013 21:42

Had mine a week now. Very much like the dispenser as its really handy to not need 2 hands (ie holding sponge/cloth and spray). Nice smell too and seems to clean well, although doesn't remove limescale from around my kitchen sink but then it doesn't specifically claim to. Might buy but tend to buy cheaper cleaning products but could be tempted by this.

weebarra · 04/09/2013 21:51

I had the bathroom cleaner.
I liked the smell and found it easy to use.
Like a pp, I used it with kitchen roll and did find that it soaked my hand so using a cloth would be better.
I often have a spray cleaner in my bathroom (do a bit of random cleaning when DCs are in the bath) and think this one is effective and unobtrusive so would probably buy it again and recommend it.
£2.99 does seem a bit expensive so would be likely to wait till it was on offer.

dickinson13 · 04/09/2013 22:07

I used the bathroom cleaner.

  • How easy or difficult did you find the Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner to use?

I found it very easy to use, just press the top down using a cloth or toilet roll and then wipe on the surface.

  • How effective did you find Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?

I found it very effective. It leaves the sink, toilet or other surface shiny and looking clean.

  • Did you find that you used Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner more regularly than your other cleaning products or not? If so, how often did you use Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?

I used it inbetween using my normal cleaners for quick cleans for example if someone was popping round or when i noticed the sink needing a quick wipe. i used it most days.

  • The RRP for the Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner is £2.99, do you think you'll be likely to buy it again or not? If so, why? If not why not?

i would buy it if it was a bit cheaper, say £2 as I don't think it will last very long.

  • Mr Muscle Touch-Up cleaner is currently available for the kitchen and bathroom. Would you like Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner for other areas of your house? If so, which areas?

Not that I can think of.

  • What did you like most about Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?

That it is very quick and easy to use and you don't have to touch the bottle which leaves it germ free.

  • If it came up in conversation, would you recommend Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner to your friends/family? If so why? If not, why not

Yes I would because it is very handy for quick cleans.

CointreauVersial · 04/09/2013 23:15

Just adding a further comment, I've been using my product for about a week, and I just noticed I'm nearly half way through the bottle!

Maybe I'll revise my response about buying it in the future....

Of course, when it runs out I might just whip the top off and refill the funky dispensing bottle with my regular spray product but don't tell Mr Muscle Grin

ritagcabrita · 05/09/2013 07:21
  • How easy or difficult did you find the Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner to use? I found it very easy to use.
  • How effective did you find Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?
I was positively surprised how good it was!
  • Did you find that you used Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner more regularly than your other cleaning products or not? If so, how often did you use Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?
Yes, I found my self cleaning the bathroom more than usual, just because I loved the format.
  • The RRP for the Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner is £2.99, do you think you'll be likely to buy it again or not? If so, why? If not why not?
I thing the RRP is a little higher than its competitors, specially because it is a small container. But I'll be looking out for promotions.
  • Mr Muscle Touch-Up cleaner is currently available for the kitchen and bathroom. Would you like Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner for other areas of your house? If so, which areas?
Yes, I would like Mr Muscle to come is a format that is sensible enough to be used on floors and walls for general spills.
  • What did you like most about Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?
I loved the format of the dispenser and the fragance.
  • If it came up in conversation, would you recommend Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner to your friends/family? If so why? If not, why not?
Yes, I would recommend it because it's so easy and effective to use.

  • How easy or difficult did you find the Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner to use?

I found it very easy to use, it really is quite simple!

  • How effective did you find Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?

I thought it was very effective for giving the worktops a quick wipe over after making tea etc.

  • Did you find that you used Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner more regularly than your other cleaning products or not? If so, how often did you use Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?

Yes I probably did as I was cleaning the kitchen with the usual cleaner once a day and then through the day just wiping over the surfaces using this.

  • The RRP for the Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner is £2.99, do you think you'll be likely to buy it again or not? If so, why? If not why not?

I'm not sure. I tend to buy products when they are on offer at around £1 so I think nearly £3 is a little too much for our budget but if on offer yes I would.

  • Mr Muscle Touch-Up cleaner is currently available for the kitchen and bathroom. Would you like Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner for other areas of your house? If so, which areas?

No, I think kitchen and bathroom is fine.

  • What did you like most about Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?

That it came in a nice little pot that can stay on the windowsill.

  • If it came up in conversation, would you recommend Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner to your friends/family? If so why? If not, why not?

I would recommend it because it's a quick and easy product to use.

Sorry about the late review, we only got the product on Saturday and wanted to try it out before writing.

Thanks for choosing us.

AnneEyhtMeyer · 05/09/2013 13:02

- How easy or difficult did you find the Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner to use?

Very easy to use once I got used to covering the whole of the top with kitchen paper, as at first I did get sprayed a couple of times as it escaped out of the back.

- How effective did you find Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?

It was better than I expected. I used it for a full kitchen clean, rather than a touch up. It cleaned very well, and I was surprised how well it cut through the grease on the hob. I was disappointed it didn't get rid of the limescale marks on the draining board, but it didn't claim it would so I can't complain! It cleaned the worksurfaces well, and it dried very quickly, almost instantly. I can't imagine how much you would have to use to keep the surfaces wet for 5 minutes to kill the germs it says it can on the packet! On my glass splashback it left a few streaks, but nothing major, but the absolute best bit about it, and the reason I would buy it again is how well it worked on stainless steel. Normally I have to clean, buff and then wipe with olive oil, but with this I just cleaned it and it was gleaming, no streaks and no need for oil. I was astonished at this!

- Did you find that you used Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner more regularly than your other cleaning products or not? If so, how often did you use Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?

I can't answer this question yet, as I have only just started using it, but I think I will, especially for the hob. I always have kitchen paper on the side, so it will be easy to clean up quickly. I currently have the bottle on the side, which I don't normally do, so I expect this will remind me to use it. It looks good enough to leave on the side.

- The RRP for the Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner is £2.99, do you think you'll be likely to buy it again or not? If so, why? If not why not?

It is a bit expensive, but I think I will. I will probably stock up if I see it on offer or available at Costco.

- Mr Muscle Touch-Up cleaner is currently available for the kitchen and bathroom. Would you like Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner for other areas of your house? If so, which areas?

I'd love to try the bathroom one. I can't imagine any other areas of the house it would be needed. Unless you did a furniture polish version, I suppose.

- What did you like most about Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?

I loved the way it cleaned stainless steel without leaving streaks that need to be buffed and oiled. I also loved the smell - it reminded me of the powdered drinks I had as a child when I lived abroad - I think it was called Tang.

- If it came up in conversation, would you recommend Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner to your friends/family? If so why? If not, why not?

Yes I would, it is handy and does a good job. Certainly if they had stainless steel appliances.

Thank you very much for letting me participate in this product test.

Mine arrived at the end of last week and I had the kitchen one.

  • How easy or difficult did you find the Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner to use?
Really easy to use - can leave on kitchen side and just press to release liquid.
  • How effective did you find Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?
Not great as a cleaner - it really is only a 'touch-up' cleaner although it does have a lovely smell it doesn't really remove the kind of stains/grease that you get in a kitchen that well.
  • Did you find that you used Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner more regularly than your other cleaning products or not? If so, how often did you use Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?
Yes, it is good for a daily wipe round.
  • The RRP for the Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner is £2.99, do you think you'll be likely to buy it again or not? If so, why? If not why not?
No but I might try the bathroom one.
  • Mr Muscle Touch-Up cleaner is currently available for the kitchen and bathroom. Would you like Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner for other areas of your house? If so, which areas?
Can't think of any.
  • What did you like most about Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?
It looks nice in the bottle so am happy to leave it out on the side. The smell is lovely too.
  • If it came up in conversation, would you recommend Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner to your friends/family? If so why? If not, why not?
No - I don't think it is powerful enough to bother with, it isn't really more effective than wiping round with water.

  • How easy or difficult did you find the Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner to use?

Very easy

  • How effective did you find Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?

Good cleaner and pleasant smell.

  • Did you find that you used Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner more regularly than your other cleaning products or not? If so, how often did you use Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?

Yes, very easy to clean as we do it frequently so dirt doesn't build up.

  • The RRP for the Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner is £2.99, do you think you'll be likely to buy it again or not? If so, why? If not why not?

Yes, each bottle has over 200 uses so fab value.

  • Mr Muscle Touch-Up cleaner is currently available for the kitchen and bathroom. Would you like Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner for other areas of your house? If so, which areas?

I think kitchen and bathroom covers the areas pretty well. Could do a version that is baby friendly... One that can be used for potty and a different one for highchairs.

  • What did you like most about Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?

Looked good, well packaged, makes cleaning easier.

  • If it came up in conversation, would you recommend Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner to your friends/family? If so why? If not, why not?

Yes, though I think even though the bottle looks great I think there needs to be a nice looking label on it that clearly says what it is as a friend almost thought it was a soap dispenser.

spub · 05/09/2013 16:52

How easy or difficult did you find the Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner to use?
I found it really easy to use and loved the fact that I could use it one handed as there was no need to hold the bottle and pull a trigger

  • How effective did you find Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?
I found it effective and I liked the smell. It did smear a little on my steel hob and needed a bit of buffing but it got a tomatoey stain off of my pale cream tile behind the hob very easily. It also removed a sticky bit of wet coffee powder from my worktop without the need to scrub.
  • Did you find that you used Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner more regularly than your other cleaning products or not? If so, how often did you use Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?

I did use it a lot. I think the one-handed thing and it being so handy just to squish a cloth on made it very convenient. It was my "go to" cleaner because of that.

  • The RRP for the Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner is £2.99, do you think you'll be likely to buy it again or not? If so, why? If not why not?
I wouldn't pay more than £2.99 and agree with other comments about the shape of the bottle being nice but a funky decal on it wouldn't go amiss! I would buy it again those things factored in, though.

I think kitchens and bathrooms are the main areas where the product would work best.

It smelled great, worked well, looked good and the best thing was the ability to use it one handed. I always have something in my hands!

Yes, I would. Friends who have dropped by have been shown it in action already!

  • How easy or difficult did you find the Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner to use?

I was sent the bathroom cleaner to try. I wasn't keen on the dispenser, it didn't seem to work very well and ended up spraying all over the place and not just onto the cloth I wanted to use, plus there seemed to be some leakage from the spray part. It was relatively easy but I was a little disappointed with the dispenser.

  • How effective did you find Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?

I found the cleaner to be very good. It quickly and easily removed all traces of dirt/grime without much effort from me. It smelt clean and fresh and not very chemically unlike some other bathroom cleaners I've tried in the past.

  • Did you find that you used Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner more regularly than your other cleaning products or not? If so, how often did you use Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?

I found that I didn't need to use the cleaner any more regularly than my usual brand. In fact I think I probably needed to use it slightly less as it did such a good job upon first use.

  • The RRP for the Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner is £2.99, do you think you'll be likely to buy it again or not? If so, why? If not why not?

If it was on special offer then maybe yes I would but at the retail price of £2.99 I wouldn't as that is more than I would usually spend on a single cleaning product unless it was something specialised like oven or sink cleaner.

  • Mr Muscle Touch-Up cleaner is currently available for the kitchen and bathroom. Would you like Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner for other areas of your house? If so, which areas?

No I think if I were to use it then it would mostly be in the bathroom and kitchen.

  • What did you like most about Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?

The fact that it really left my bathroom looking clean and fresh without leaving an overly chemical smell.

  • If it came up in conversation, would you recommend Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner to your friends/family? If so why? If not, why not?

If the spray dispenser worked better then I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it. As it stands I would recommend it for its actual cleaning power but not for the dispenser.

Thank you for selecting me as one of the testers of this product :)

How easy or difficult did you find the Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner to use?
It was easy to use, but what I didn't like so much was the cleaning fluid getting onto your hands when you press down on the pump with the cloth/kitchen towel.

How effective did you find Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?
It was effective on stains that were not stubborn. For stubborn stains, I really needed a spray so that you could spray it on and leave it for a few minutes.

Did you find that you used Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner more regularly than your other cleaning products or not? If so, how often did you use Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?
I did use it more regularly, as I kept the bottle on my worktop. I don't keep any of my other cleaning products on my worktops, but as the bottle was small and not unsightly, I decided it could live on the worktop. I used it at least five times a day. I used it more than my usual cleaning products because it lived on my worktop, it was so much more convenient. The design of the push down pump is also great, as it means that you don't have to pick the bottle up.

The RRP for the Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner is £2.99, do you think you'll be likely to buy it again or not? If so, why? If not why not?
If it was, say, £1.50, then I'd definitely buy it, but not at its RRP. It's quite a small bottle of cleaning fluid for £2.99.

Mr Muscle Touch-Up cleaner is currently available for the kitchen and bathroom. Would you like Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner for other areas of your house? If so, which areas?
Maybe something similar for granite or wood would be great.

What did you like most about Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?
I liked the fact that the design of the bottle meant that it was attractive enough to keep on the worktops. It was in a neutral colour and 'Mr Muscle' is written in a not too stand out fashion at the bottom of the bottom. I really like the size of it, too.

If it came up in conversation, would you recommend Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner to your friends/family? If so why? If not, why not?
Yes, I would definitely recommend it. It's a fantastic product and there's nothing else like at on the market. As a mother of two little ones, I'm constantly cleaning up their mess, so I would highly recommend it to other mums. As a mother, you want to have things that make your life a little easier if possible and this goes a little way towards doing that I think.
