Effectiveness

Pros:

  • "This totally removed the rings in less than a minute!"
  • "This is the ONLY pumice stone that removed ALL of the buildup."
  • "Works fo much better than I expected! My toilet had bad build up from when I bought my house. Nothing could get it off. This took it off with ease!"
  • "I was skeptical at first as I couldn’t get my hard water stain line out of my toilet with other products…it only took about 5 minutes using this product to get the line off!!! So impressed!!"
  • "This pumice stone got out hard water stains that have been in my tub and toilet for months because no cleaning product was working."
  • "It actually remove all the stain from my toilet bowl without too much effort."
  • "I've tried SEVERAL different cleaners in attempt to get a hard water ring off my toilets and sink drains nothing worked EXCEPT this!!"

Cons:

  • "The gunk at the bottom is still there."
  • "This did not remove the hard water stains from the toilet."
  • "It didn’t take much elbow grease, maybe 3-5 minutes max."
  • "It didn’t even lighten it at all. I scrubbed and scrubbed."
  • "It's hard to hold/use."
  • "It cleaned very little and the stone wore down very quickly."
  • "This is not work at all. And it’s gross to use at least by for me."

Design & Handling

Pros:

  • "It’s on a handle and it has a storage unit to keep it from touching anything when stored."
  • "The handle is your best friend."
  • "He also thought the removable handle was genius."
  • "Love the handle and this works just as well as the grey ones without handles."
  • "The handle is strong and easy to grip and prevent you from having to get your hands dirty."
  • "The handle makes it easy to clean your toilet without submerging your hand."
  • "Love that there’s a handle on this as well!"

Cons:

  • "The shape of the stone makes it difficult to get in small spaces such as sink drains."
  • "It's a bit awkward to maneuver in certain places."
  • "The only negative thing I can say is that the large square shape does not allow me to get up under the lip of the toilet where the water drains down from."
  • "Just don’t use it on a sink as it will chip your porcelain."
  • "The handle isn’t very long or ergonomic, but for $10 it’s a flaw I’m completely willing to overlook considering how well it did the job."
  • "The only difficult part was completely removing the plastic covering the stone without risking pulling the handle from the stone."
  • "I feel like it has a design flaw. It is a square shape, and once you wear it down on one edge you have to constantly try and flip it around to get a good scrubbing angle."

Value & Longevity

Pros:

  • "I will buy this product ALWAYS as needed."
  • "I use it every 2 months, more or less, whenever the rings start to appear."
  • "I've had it a few years but haven't need to use it very often."
  • "I cleaned 3 toilets with it and barely made a dent in the pumice, this will last through many uses."
  • "I thought it was a bit pricy but it's last so long without falling apart."
  • "I've had this stone for months and it's still going strong."
  • "I'll be reordering when this one wears down."

Cons:

  • "The only downside is HUGE cloud of dust when you first open it."
  • "I was only able to use 1/4 of the bar for this toilet bowl."
  • "Mine came chipped, so I am not sure if it crumbles eventually."
  • "It doesn’t last long. However because the water degrades it."
  • "Too expensive I won't buy again."
  • "Kinda spendy since it didn’t last long however it worked as advertised."
  • "From all the 'long lasting' and other claims such a store in case, I was shocked that the unit would literally disappear in 3 minutes."

Overall Satisfaction

Pros:

  • "I love a product that works as advertised!!"
  • "This little scrubber works perfectly! Almost made it fun!"
  • "I am really impressed by this product."
  • "This is the only successful item I’ve purchased."
  • "I highly recommend."

  • "Entirely worth the money!"

Cons:

  • "I was actually surprised to see that it didn’t do much at all."
  • "It's hard to hold/use."
  • "This product is simple. Perhaps over-priced, but it really works!"
  • "I almost gave up because it didn’t work as fast as I thought it would."
  • "Although it works, it’s very temporary and I don’t enjoy the sound of the stone scraping the porcelain."
  • "I would have been better off buying Mr Clean Magic Erasers at 1/10th the cost. Save your money."
