About this deal

The limescale disappears before your eyes to leave your kettle bright and shiny. It will also stop the limescale scum you get when you pour tea or coffee, meaning you’ll get a more delicious drink every time. Seriously, Cillit Bang lime and grime. Totally works. I've cleaned away horrendous limescale in about 30 minutes with stuff.” (Tried and tested by Mumsnet user Happycow) So we really wanted to challenge Naturally Powerful Cillit Bang and test how good it really is at removing a build up of hard limescale, which after all is what it says it can do with only natural ingredients. For washing machines, you need to pour a large cup of either vinegar or lemon juice into the machine and then run your usual washing cycle. For dishwashers, you need to pour a large cup of either vinegar or lemon juice into the base of the machine and run the dishwashing cycle. Kettles and coffee machines Spraying plenty of the foam onto the doors, we then used a Minky Cloth Pad to spread the foam all over the glass and left it for the recommended 5 minutes.

The side of the bottle gives us a little more information. It tells us that the cleaning active agents are ‘citric acid from natural origin – removes limescale efficiently & surficants from natural origin – remove dirt thoroughly’ One Mumsnet user, Laila747, says, “White vinegar in a spray bottle, add some Fairy Liquid and spray all over shower screen, leave for 15 minutes then rinse. Perfect streak-free shower screen every time!”Just apply under the rim like any other toilet cleaner and leave it to work its magic for five minutes. And don’t forget to open the window or ventilate your bathroom as this product has a strong chemical smell. Limescale on loos can be tough to clean, but Harpic Power Plus can effortlessly remove limescale, hard watermarks, stubborn stains, rust and strong odours as well as 99.9% of germs. During our research, we came across several reviewers who said they had stopped buying Cillit Bang because of the strong chemical smell, but tried the miraculous product once again and found that the new formula smelled fresher and cleaner than before.

The surface affected by limescale will determine how and what you clean it with. For example, you wouldn’t want to use a strong chemical-based limescale remover in your kettle in case you can't get rid of the chemical smell and taste. Thankfully, specially designed products like the Oust Descaler (recommended above) are at hand to clean your small household appliances.If the limescale is very stubborn, we recommend that you leave the liquid in the toilet for several hours or even overnight. If the limescale is really bad, use your loo brush as a plunger to lower the water level and it will work in the toilet bowl without getting diluted. We have an old kettle that is used in the shed for when we need hot water without having to traipse through the house to the kitchen – it doesn’t get much love! Ecover also never tests its products on animals, and even the bottle is made from recycled and plant plastic. Stardrops’ The Pink Stuff Paste is suitable for kitchen and bathroom limescale removal and works on surfaces such as ceramic tiles, showers, glass, sinks, saucepans, outdoor furniture, and paintwork. During our research, we analysed Mumsnet forum posts about which limescale removers worked well and which ones were most popular for shower screens, baths, toilets, sinks, washing machines and kettles.
