    Didn’t really work well for me.

    I use this one, it is what Choice liked and it seems to work pretty well.

    • Never used shower power but I agree Ajay works great in our shower. I’d rate it above Bam too

      • Ajax or Ajay?

        • Yes Ajax don’t think Ajay would help clean my shower

    This is a good product for bathroom glass, removes the soap scum very easily with hardly any scrubbing, however I found it requires WAY more application that a homebrand Jif, which does just as good and is far cheaper since one does not need to apply much.

    • +1

      this is liquid while jif is cream right ?

  • Good product!

    I’m allergic to chemicals and especially acids. I use vinegar instead, I like to drink the leftovers as a natural detox.

    • +12

      You do realise vinegar is a chemical acid ?

      • +6

        It’s okay I dilute it with dihydrogen monoxide

        • Touche :-)

  • 750ml bottle usually goes on sale for same price if you got spare trigger bottle for refill

    According to a recent research women showed greater declines in lung function if they used certain cleaning products — notably cleaning sprays — over time.
    Scientists at the University of Bergen in Norway analyzed data from 6,235 participants in the European Community Respiratory Health Survey. The participants, whose average age was 34 when they enrolled, were followed for more than 20 years. Among the findings:
    - The amount of air a person can forcibly exhale in one second declined 3.6 milliliters a year (ml/year) faster in women who cleaned at home and 3.9 ml/year faster in women who worked as cleaners.
    - The total amount of air a person can forcibly exhale declined 4.3 ml/year faster in women who cleaned at home and 7.1 ml/year faster in women who worked as cleaners.

    The researchers added that the accelerated lung function decline in the women working as cleaners was comparable to smoking somewhat less than the equivalent of 20 pack-years. It’s been well established that constant exposure to cleaning products is linked to higher asthma rates.

      I would be interested how often they were exposed to it. I'm not that good at cleaning very often. Sounds like getting a mask might be an idea though.

        Looks like they just asked if they used a spray or other cleaning product at least once a week:

        Among women, the use of sprays or other cleaning products (i.e. non-sprays) at least one once per week was associated with accelerated decline in FEV 1 (max forced expired volume in 1 sec) as compared to not performing cleaning activities. Use of other cleaning products at least once per week was also associated with accelerated decline in FVC (max forced vital capacity).

        • then I'm OK, I dont use cleaning products every week. (yeah, I'm pretty slack). The only place I use a spray is in the shower, everything else is either water and microfibre cloths, dishwashing liquid, laundry powder, etc.

          Might look at a mask, though.

            @try2bhelpful: Would've been interesting to know the change if cleaning products are used less frequently. Guess it is much harder to find a substantial group of people doing cleaning exactly twice a week for 20 years, for example.

            Found it quite curious that sharing this study got so many down votes.

            • @JetBombat: I didn’t down vote you. It is certainly worth highlighting these studies so people can make up their own mind. I would be interested to see a study on people who cook in a wok with chillies, curries etc on a long term basis; I cough every time I cook with them.

          • @try2bhelpful: What about lavatories? No one should accept anything less than an immaculate lavatory.

            • @Cheap Rich Guy: Lavatories don't need to be immaculate - just not injurious to your health. I have never been in a toilet that made me cough the way that I do when I use spray cleaners or cook with chilli/curries in a wok and, believe me, I have been in a few loos that were less than immaculate. It is not a good thing to irritate lung tissue; the issue becomes what effect the irritants have over the long term. Personally I don't know, but small particles like asbestos, coal dust, etc can be very detrimental to lung function. I'm not trying to be a scare monger, I just think that would make an interesting study.

      So this would mean this a targeted deal for men only. OP please fix title.

      I use to work as a motel cleaner, the boss lady who had been doing it for years had totally lost her sense of smell due to the exposure to the chemicals

      "- The amount of air a person can forcibly exhale in one second declined 3.6 milliliters a year (ml/year) faster in women who cleaned at home and 3.9 ml/year faster in women who worked as cleaners.
      - The total amount of air a person can forcibly exhale declined 4.3 ml/year faster in women who cleaned at home and 7.1 ml/year faster in women who worked as cleaners."

      Note that an average adult lung can hold about 6000ml of air - so even after 40 years of cleaning, the additional 3.9ml/year of loss, would total around 150ml.
      To put it another way : Over a 40 year timeframe, a woman working as a cleaner, would lose just 2.5% more lung capacity than a woman who cleaned less than once per week.

    If ALDI is in your area then their Power Force Pro Bath and Shower 750ml for about $2.50 works almost as well in my experience

    • +100 for this stuff - its it great!

      Eats through limescale like nothing else.

  • Anyone know how bad it stinks? Cleaning my shower makes my eyes water and my nose and lungs burn

      It smells like lemon.

    • You will probably find this does too then, I have to put it on and wipe of quickly.

    • This also has a very strong acidic smell.

    • Generally respirating anything other than air is not the best idea, let alone cleaning agents. If not using a mask (a proper one, not those 'dust masks'), I'd get in, hold my breath, spray spray spray, get out.

      Shower Power smells awful IMO. Probably the worst out of all the cleaning products I've ever used. I hated the smell so much I threw it out.

    • Some cleaners are bad for that. Have the area well vented and maybe get a fan in there to help ventilate. Rinse with cold water so you don't create steam.

      Smells like semen.

    I find that this works for my shower soap residue brilliantly.

    Thanks OP. But just baking powder and vinegar works fine. No need for all this chem
