Meet the "Babies"

Scrubbing Bubbles® Extend-a-Clean™ Power Sprayer



I joined a website called "BuzzAgent" and they send you products to try and send in reports about. Well last week, they sent me the Scrubbing Bubbles® Extend-a-Clean™ Power Sprayer to try. The products states that it has the cleaning power to clean for 4 days before you have to clean again. It gets rid of soap scum and all of the little nasties in your tub. The sprayer is unique as well, you flip the switch on the handle to "unlock" and pull and hold the trigger. It automatically and continuously sprays. To clean just spray, let it foam for a few minutes and then wipe.
I was kind-of skeptical at this product until I tried it. It does exactly what it says it will do. I didn't clean the tub for about a week, so I could try out the cleaning solution. And now, the tub is sparkly clean agin, without the hard scrubbing.
Not only does the spray clean, it makes your bathroom smell and feel fresh. It is a sort-of a faint orange smell, not too strong but pleasant. I know as a parent you really don't have alot of time to be cleaning the house when the little ones are running around, but this is a MUST HAVE! You can spray it, and wiat about it for a few minutes and then go back to it.
