Air Wick V.I.Poo

Great invention but 3stars for functionality – I think it’s a great invention i use it a lot and I’ve got it in all my bathrooms, but the only fault that i face all the time is that, halfway through it doesn’t spray properly or not at all, I try shaking the bottle, spraying at different angles to no avail. They need to do better with that as i stop using it when it’s still some left.

The content is good but the dispenser is lousy – I have been buying this product for a year or more hoping the dispenser problem would go away. Sadly it hasn't so I am posting this review and maybe the manufacturer will tell their Hungarian supplier to sort it. When spraying the content into the toilet the plunger sticks and there seems to be only two ways to free it up, firstly by flicking the plunger several times or secondly by holding the plunger tightly and lifting it free. It really is most frustrating, particularly for a product that sell for $10 in supermarkets. Maybe the plunger is operated by a spring that is supposed to push it back into place after having been pressed down and maybe that spring is not strong enough. Who knows but it is such a good product and the packaging failure should be remedied.

Once you use it, you will wonder how you went without it – What a great product that really works! I have 3 sons and a partner, and I always have a couple of V.I.Poo bottles in the toilet. We use the Fruity Pop and Lavender Superstar, and now I've convinced my mum to start using it at her house too. From the first time I tried it I haven't used anything else, it actually blocks the smell instead of just adding to it. If you haven't tried it yet, it's well worth giving it a go. The only problem I have is when it gets about a quarter full it is hard to pump into the toilet as you need to hold it upright. It can be done, but can be awkward to do. I pour what's left into the next bottle. Also good to keep in handbag for those just in case times.
