Cleaning enthusiasts heaped on the praise for a handy item that is sure to become an essential in your caddy.

The M&S customer went on to detail her experience with the Stain Removing Wipes.
"I've used on several tops which have had the dreaded spaghetti bolognase sauce on," the Facebook user revealed.
She summed up the results by saying she would "highly recommend" the item to other parents.
Other cleaning fans added their thoughts on the wipes in the comments section.
"And they smell lush," wrote one impressed person.
"I've seen loads of good reviews about them," agreed another Facebook user.
"These wipes are a life changer for holidays, used them for a couple of years, best stain wipes ever," said a third cleaning fan.
Mrs Hinch loves it but it's the most toxic cleaning product ever… I've seen it do so much damage & I'm a pro cleaner
"I wouldn't be without these, they are amazing!" commented another buyer.
Another homeowner pointed out that the wipes are "great on carpets and car seats too".

5 cleaning hacks
Say goodbye to ironing
Don't have time to smooth out the wrinkles of a shirt with an iron? Lenor's Crease Releaser makes wrinkles vanish - simply hang up creased items, give them a quick spritz and smooth against a hard surface.
Teabags for trainers
When trainers smell a little squiffy, pop a used (and still moist) tea bag inside and leave for about an hour. The tannins will seep into the sole of the shoe to fight nasty-smelling odours.
Remove limescale without scrubbing
When bathroom taps start looking a little grimy with limescale, slice a lemon in half and sprinkle on baking soda. Rub the fruit over the taps and with a gentle clean they will come up sparkling. Use a toothbrush to get in all the nooks and crannies.
Streak-free mirrors and windows
White vinegar is a handy secret weapon when it comes to keeping mirrors and windows streak-free. Mix one part white vinegar with four parts water in a spray bottle. Squirt then wipe with a microfibre cloth and voilà, clean glass in an instant.
Make your home smell amazing
For dust-free skirting boards, pour some fabric softener onto a cloth and give them a quick wipe. It will stop dirt collecting so quickly and, as an added bonus, make your home smell amazing.
However, for larger or older stains that have alreadt set in, you will likely need something a bit more heavy duty.
So if you're investing in these cleaning wipes, be sure to act quickly if you spot a stain.
And be warned, tougher stains such as grass may require a little more elbox grease.

Four cheap-and-easy tricks to deal with your hard water issues
Read on to find out to save £63 with a dupe for Tatcha's Dewy Skin Cream SUN SAVERS Four cheap-and-easy tricks to deal with your hard water issues Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) HARD water can lead to dull laundry, blocked showerheads, poor hairwashes and kettles fuzzed up with limescale. But a few quick-and-easy tricks can work wonders. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 6 Four cheap-and-easy tricks to deal with your hard water issues Credit: Getty Here's how to fight back . . . FRESHEN UP: Hard water can lead to build-up on clothes that makes whites look dull. Try soaking whites overnight in a mixture of one part vinegar to four parts water to strip away any fabric softener and mineral deposits. Then put in the washing machine on a hot cycle. Add some soda crystals to soften the water and hopefully your clothes will come out of the wash looking a little brighter. WASH 'N' SOAK: Is your shower head a little blocked? Limescale can build there, obstructing the usual spray. If you can, unscrew your shower head, soak it overnight in a bowl of white vinegar to dissolve deposits, then rinse it before reattaching. If you can't remove your shower head, fill a sandwich bag with vinegar then tie it to your shower and leave overnight, making sure the showerhead is fully submerged. For taps and tiles, just wipe them with a vinegar-soaked cloth regularly for a shiny look. It's also worth keeping a squeegee in the shower to wipe glass doors after each use, to prevent water spots. A pack of two costs £1 at Savers. HAIR CARE: Hard water can leave hair dull and brittle. At the end of your shower, try a cold-water rinse, or apply coconut oil before showering because it acts as a barrier. A weekly apple-cider vinegar rinse, one part vinegar to three parts water, helps remove build-up. My three-ingredient trick removes hard water stains in one second - and you've got everything you need in your cupboards Or get a showerhead filter such as the JML Pure shower plus filtering shower head, usually £14.99, now £9.99, at Morrisons. BOILING POINT: Prevent limescale by adding a marble to kettles or buy Chef Aid kettle descaler, £1.50, at Dunelm. For dishwashers, top up salt and try descaling once every six months with the Oust dishwasher descaler, £2.52 at Asda. You get two sachets, so you can use one in your washing machine to remove limescale. All prices on page correct at time of going to press. Deals and offers subject to availability.

Nobody's Child dress that 'skims the body without being too tight' now 23% off "I can tell it's going to be a staple in my wardrobe for a long time" The Colorado Midi Dress, which comes in a butter yellow colour, was £65 but is now £50 in a 23% off sale (Image: Nobody's Child) Shoppers of Nobody's Child have been hailing a summer dress that is 'beautiful inside and out', and it's currently on sale. The Colorado Midi Dress, which comes in a butter yellow colour, was £65 but is now £50 in the retailer's 23% off sale. According to Nobody's Child, the dress has been sold for more than 20 times in the last 48 hours and it is easy to see why. The Colorado Midi Dress comes with a scoop neck and an a-line skirt that comes around the ankles, creating an elegant silhouette perfect for any setting. It comes with thick straps on the shoulders and side pockets for added practicality. READ MORE: Nobody's Child 'easy to wear' dress that shoppers want to buy in different colours now 30% off LATEST: Boden £60 shirt 'luxurious' way to dress for the office now £24 This dress could be worn while you are sightseeing abroad, or meeting up with friends for lunch or cocktails on a warm afternoon. You could style this dress with a pair of comfortable trainers for a more casual look, or a pair of your favourite heeled sandals for a more elevated and formal style.

The dress comes in various other colours, including black, blue, brown, white, green and red, all of which come at different discounted prices but have varying availability. The butter yellow colour is available in the regular fit and in UK sizes 4 to 22. And true to Nobody's Child's ethos, the Colorado Midi Dress is made with sustainability in mind. The dress is crafted by 62% LENZING™ ECOVERO™ Viscose, 34% polyester, 4% elastane, while the skirt is made out of 100% organic cotton. If you are looking for alternative summer dresses, the M&S Collection Cotton Rich Floral V-Neck Midi Tiered Dress is sold for £45 at Marks and Spencer, while the Sofia Trim Jersey Midi Dress from Boden is sold for £99. On Nobody's Child's website, the Colorado Midi Dress has received an impressive rating of five out of five stars based on five reviews so far. "This dress is well made, true to size… lovely for summer," one happy shopper said. While another pleased buyer had this to say: "Gorgeous dress , had lots of compliments wearing it to a wedding, im 5ft2 and it ran to just above my ankle which was lovely". Despite there being no negative reviews of the dress, one thing to bear in mind is that the dress is sleeveless and may not be weather appropriate during the cooler seasons of autumn or winter, but can potentially be layered with a cardigan or jumper for extra warmth during these times. The Colorado Midi Dress comes with a scoop neck and an a-line skirt that comes around the ankles, creating an elegant silhouette perfect for any setting (Image: Nobody's Child) One customer was more than impressed with the dress, however, and left an extensive review. They penned: "The colour is absolutely gorgeous—a soft, buttery yellow that gives off the perfect warm, sunny vibe without being too bold. It's a lovely shade that works well for both spring and summer, but I could easily see myself wearing it into the fall with a cardigan or light jacket. "The fit is fantastic. It's true to size, and I love the way the dress gently skims my body without being too tight or too loose. The midi length is just right—long enough to feel elegant, but still practical for everyday wear. The fabric is light and breathable, which is perfect for warmer weather, but it doesn't feel flimsy at all. "It's also lined, so there's no transparency issue, which is always a huge plus. What really sold me on this dress was how versatile it is. I've worn it for a casual brunch with friends, and I've also dressed it up for a more formal gathering with heels and some delicate jewelry. Article continues below "The style is so easy to dress up or down! Overall, I'm super impressed with the quality of the Colorado Midi Dress, and I can tell it's going to be a staple in my wardrobe for a long time. Plus, I appreciate Nobody's Child's commitment to sustainable fashion—it's a beautiful piece both inside and out."

Next fans say 'beautifully made' £20 jumper is 'ideal for casual or smarter looks'
The reduced garment has been described as 'effortlessly stylish' by shoppers Summer is nearly over, whether we want to admit it or not, and that means a wardrobe update will soon be due. When it rolls around, autumn means saying goodbye to shorts and light dresses and hello to cozier garments. Shoppers in the mood for the new season will be glad to hear that a Next jumper and shirt duo is already a hit, perfect for both job interviews and laid-back days, while adding a layer of warming style. Next has slashed the price of its Blue Stripe Layered Long Sleeve Collared Gold Detailed Button Jumper with Wool and 100 percent Cotton Shirt. Described as 'effortlessly stylish', this blue striped number boasts a chic collared shirt underlay and a cosy 'soft touch' knit. The design also includes elegant gold-tone buttons on the shoulder and a neat collar, plus it's easy to care for being machine washable. The Next jumper's stripes come in an array of blues and light brown, complete with full-length sleeves for added comfort. There are also grey and black versions of the jumper-and-shirt combo for £14 and £21, respectively. Blue Stripe Layered Long Sleeve Jumper with Wool and 100 percent Cotton Shirt £48 £19.50 Next BUY HERE Marks and Spencer currently offers a similar item, the Cotton Rich Pointelle Crew Neck Jumper, priced at £30, reports Birmingham Live. This M&S alternative presents a snug fit with a classic crew neck and long sleeves adorned with ruffled cuffs. Available in regular and petite sizes, the Next jumper comes in X-Small through to X-Large, though certain sizes are beginning to sell out. One satisfied customer shared: "I purchased this lovely shirt and jumper combination for a video interview, and I was really pleased with how it looked. "The bright white, soft cotton collar gives it a smart appearance and the jumper is made from a beautifully soft wool." However, not everyone was impressed, with one disgruntled buyer commenting: "Disappointing. Uncomfortable and so heavy." Fashion deal of the week New Balance has just launched a massive sale ahead of the summer, with up to half-price off. Hate that break in period with stiff footwear? Then look no further than the Unisex RC42 Shoes, said to be "comfy straight out of the box", that have been reduced from £90 to just £45, saving shoppers 50 percent off the original asking price. Featuring the classic minimalist silhouette that can be worn with everything from denim jeans to leggings, these trainers have been particularly designed for those with an active lifestyle. Crafted from a "lightweight" suede/mesh construction, they boast a low profile that is suitable for those who spend long periods of time on their feet, while the a padded tongue and cushioned rubber sole ensure all day comfort. Finished with the classic signature 'N' branding on the side, the half-price discount covers two colours - granite with white and linen with sea salt. As of writing, sizes range from a four through to nine, including a few half-sizes. Shoppers can't stop praising the New Balance RC42 Shoes, as they have earned a 4.2 rating and glowing reviews for their "comfortable" design that means they "don't even have to break them in." One five-star review read: "Very cute and comfortable right out of the box. On trend and has a somewhat cushioned midsole—perfect for wearing all day." Another happy shopper remarked: "Beautifully made top with lovely button detail, overly soft feeling and great fit. Ideal for casual or smarter look." The Blue Stripe Layered Jumper with Wool and Cotton Shirt is available for purchase from Next at a price of £19.50. While some may be sad to say goodbye to summer, the good news is this is the time of year many retailers offer strong sales deals. One such brand currently running a clearance sale is Skechers, with plenty of options that can work for the colder months. Right now, shoppers can get a pair of chunky platform boots buyers say are "out of the box comfortable". The chunky platforms are sure to go with those chunky knits that are so popular in autumn and while their light brown colourway is currently sold out, shoppers can still get them in a black patent or burgundy shade, ideal to blend in with those turning leaves.
