Astonish Toilet Bowl Cleaner

we have just moved to a house with 5 toilets which are flushed from our rainwater harvesting tank. Although it has three filters on it, and I have done intensive training with my family on how to use a toilt brush.....! the toilet bowls do get a filmy, dusty build up at the water line. Whilst elbow grease and a loo brush do the trick, these little tablets, left overnight, are fantastic, leaving me with sparkling toilet bowls.

Amazing!by Sheila Topham

Astonish Toilet Bowl Cleaner

Used these to deal with sorting out a distinctly undomesticated male's bathroom, that hadn't been properly cleaned in years. I couldn't believe how they removed limescale and other stains (don't ask!) with the minimum of brushing needed. Thoroughly recommended.

Ineffectiveby David King

Astonish Toilet Bowl Cleaner

Gave this product a fair trial by purchasing 2 boxes, using the tablets overnight as per instructions for a mild limescale problem. Alas, no difference! Discovered white vinegar works better so used instead. Not convinced by this so called cleaner.

Excellent Productby Kathryn Revell

Astonish Toilet Bowl Cleaner

My elderly parents live in an extremely hard water area and when it came time to sell their house I couldn't bear to leave the limescaled up toilets alone any longer, so for several visits while sorting out the house I left the toilets with one or two tablets of this product in, and it sorted them out! Once the limescale was removed, I had to repeat with one tablet at each visit or it came back, but at this price for a box of 10, it's an inexpensive solution.

Really amazing Lime scale removerby Mrs Sharon Long

Astonish Toilet Bowl Cleaner

I wasn't sure when I bought this as the reviews were mixed. I am so pleased with this product. My husband has spent literally hours scrubbing at the toilet bowl with all sorts of foul smelling abrasive potions. I bought these without telling him and while he was at work one night I popped one in and went to bed. I got up later, gave the toilet a quick scrub and was absolutely gobb-smacked with the water cleared! When my husband came home it was the first thing he noticed. He was suitable impressed, as was I, and we will never be without these little beauties for as long as we can get them. Thank you Lakeland!

Limescaleby Mrs Hancock

5 stars out of 5

Astonish Toilet Bowl Cleaner

I have lived in very chalky areas for 49 yrs; my sons still do and use Astonish from my order. The best thing to combat the chalk problem, of course is a water softener, which we resorted to in Oxon. I have now moved to a slightly less chalky area on the Berks/Hants border and have found Astonish to be the best product around for removing serious limescale deposits in neglected WCs, thence keeping the toilets free & pristine with perhaps a weekly overnight tablet.They help to keep the WCs hygienic and very fresh with a light brush before rinsing, & without resorting to overpowering perfume disguises.

Does what it saysby Mrs Tier

Astonish Toilet Bowl Cleaner

So impressed with this product. I've used a similar thing by another manufacturer but it wasn't a patch on this one. The ultimate test was when my husband moved into new work premises where the toilet had been left untouched for at least a couple of years. Believe me, it didn't bear looking at! He used several tablets over a week or so and now the toilet is perfect clear and clean.

So soby Mrs Haigh

2 stars out of 5

Astonish Toilet Bowl Cleaner

After reading the other reviews I thought I could be wrong but having used three or four tablets now my opinion hasn't changed. I expected the loo to be frothy and fresh but I couldn't smell anything 'fresh' or otherwise and the toilet looked just the same as the night before. Two points though - we don't get limescale and I never leave the toilet dirty so maybe that's the reason I couldn't see any difference. It doesn't explain the lack of freshness though.

Astonish Toilet Bowl Cleaner

Does just what it says on the box! I left our toilet to see how long before my other half took the hint and took his turn to clean it. I don't think I've ever seen him clean the toilet in the 16 years we've been together! He didn't take the hint and I could stand it no more. Used two tablets overnight for two nights and a swish of the toilet brush and the toilet was back to pre-stand-off cleanliness. Resigned to the fact this will be my job forever more. However, no longer seems the chore it was now I've discovered this product.

Astonish Toilet Bowl Cleaner

Excellent product, would definitely recommend. We dropped two tablets in the toilet bowl overnight and in the morning gave it a light rub with the toilet brush. What a great result!

The Brand Name Says It All!by Miss Kerry Earl

5 stars out of 5

Astonish Toilet Bowl Cleaner

Living in an hard water area, these are a god send. Leave them in (2 tablets if it's really bad) for as long as you like and then wash off with your toilet brush. You can't put these in and then just flush the loo, it will need to be cleaned as well. I simply use the duck brush, and this works fine. The toilet bowl comes up sparkling.

You need to brush as wellby F L

5 stars out of 5

Astonish Toilet Bowl Cleaner

Works a treat in our hard water area. BUT Once it has done its fizzing (overnight is best) you need to brush the bowl _before_ flushing (as on the instructions). We found that just letting it do its thing and then flushing made very little difference. But if you brush as well - hey presto! Years of hard water stains disappear. And such good value for money.

Not for me!!by Mrs Johnston

Astonish Toilet Bowl Cleaner

I bought this product a short while ago, after being tempted by the review on this site and on the packaging. But, I would not buy or use them again. My toilet bowl was not that dirty, but still, as I had something new, had to use it!! The packaging said can be left for 20 mins, but as the website says leave overnight, this is what i did. I was very disappointed in the morning to find no change what-so-ever. Thinking that this may be a one off, tried again and yet the same thing happened.

Toilet Bowl Cleanerby Jean Brown

Astonish Toilet Bowl Cleaner

I picked up a packet of Astonish Toilet Bowl Cleaner whilst looking for a Sink Tidy. This stuff is amazing - just one tablet overnight and the toilet bowl is sparkling. I live in an area with very hard water and even though I have a water softener there are still small patches of chalk adhering to the bowl giving the appearance of a grubby toilet. Now I only have to use this product once a week - marvellous.
