Dr. Beckmann Stain Devils Survival Kit

I think this is a very worthy kit to have in your arsenal if you have a family of mucktubs like I do. But be aware that whilst it will perform small miracles on some stains, for others it just doesn't seem to touch them. Ironically, it's the more organic types of stain that I personally struggle to remove using these stain devils. And those are the stain types that seem to be very well catered for with bio powders, vanish, even ox bile soap. So I tried this on some fairly typical hard-to-shift biological stains and it didn't really do any more than I could get by giving it a good soak with vanish. Then, my youngest daughter got ink all over her bed which soaked through onto her weeks old pristine white mattress topper. I washed the topper on a normal load with some vanish but the stain didn't shift at all so I decided to try the relevant Stain Devil from this kit. It worked amazingly and removed every last trace of ink. I was incredibly surprised. I also used it on some net curtains that had mould blobs. For this type of stain, it didn't visibly seem to have worked until after I gave it a wash after treating it. It removed the vast majority of the mould stain which impressed me. So I recommend this as a kit to keep in your washing arsenal. It's always worth a try on a stain you're not ready to give up on.

My toddler was starting to look like a walking Picasso (not in a good way) everytime she comes back from nursery. The paint, pen and food stains on her clothes were getting harder to get rid of so I gave this a go. It does work on most things but not all. I will definitely buy this again as it's easy to use and good value for money.

Great at getting out stains
