Noticeably reduced the light ring around the bowl. Easy to use, flush to lower tank H20 level and drop it in the corner. One problem with one use was that the blue didn’t dissolve fully. It bunched up and i had to spray it with the nozzle in the tank that fills the bowl directly.Also, there will be a blue ring left around the inside of the tank at the water line. it hasn’t gone away yet and may not but its obviously hidden. This probably won’t matter to anyone though.

The tablet lasted about 1.5 months in a main toilet used approx. 5-7 times a day. It is still going after two full months in a different toilet used 1-3 times per day.

I would buy this again knowing the toilet is more sterile and the holes that feed the bowl, under the rim, are being sterilized. This does NOT replace cleaning the toilet with a brush.

Have Fun, Because It’s Too Short!—

Wow, this thing is amazing. Not many review I leave a second update, but this thing has allowed a messy toilet to be clean 24/7. After months using this, my toilet looks new and I actually enjoy cleaning. See attached image

### ORIGINAL POST
One dark night I came home to a disturbed wife. She sat me down and shared a sad story with me. The story started out with the fact that there are no such things as “laundry fairies”. She went on to explain by stating that as I get ready for bed and drop my clothes off at the end of the bed, that some fairy does not come along and put them into the laundry basket for me. What she did not know is that I already figured this out, because the week she went to visit her parents, I tripped on those clothes that piled up over a weekend and realized the fairy did not exist. So as she continued to burst my bubble, she then ended with “you need to help around the house more.”

Being the researcher that I am, I said okay and immediately jumped on my computer to work, which was not really the case. Instead I went to Amazon to identify what I could buy that would allow me to automate or simplify the chores I was going to take ownership over. At first I saw these killer neato floor vacuums and was floored that this could be my job, and the robots would do all the work! But after I put 3 robots into the cart, one for each floor, I realized this shortcut was going to cost me thousands. So I quickly went to plan B, Clorox ToiletWand Disposable Toilet Cleaning System. So I told her I would clean the toilets as my way of contributing.

I ordered the magic wand and was off to the races!
When the wand arrived I opened it and put it to work. Here is what I found:

OPENING THE BOX
– The box contained one wand, caddy and a stack of pads. They were in a cheap plastic bag that had a very chemical and bleachy feel.
– The wand was strong and fit well into my hand and was just long enough for my toilets.
– You quickly realize you need a location to save the wand and pads.

PROS OF PRODUCT
– The pads easily clicked onto the wand.
– The pads scrubbed the toilet well, even the crusty stuff.
– The pads had solid surface area, but still fit into small cracks, for example the upper rim of the inner toilet.
– The pads were secure to the wand and did not feel cheap.
– When finished with the pad, with just a click you can trash it, never getting your hands dirty or wet.
– The wand was easily washable after use.
– The pads allow you to clean 2 toilets easily.
– No metal! In a prior toilet brush I used, I had scrapped a toilet as I scrubbed, which would not occurred if it did not contain metal!
– Clean crisp smell.

CONS OF PRODUCT
– None are major….
– The pad leaves a blue color behind in the water, which if dripped on light unsealed grout can be an issue.
– The wand is made up of two sections put together as one, so there is a seam. You have to make sure you really rinse the wand when do, so you are not dripping toilet water around or building up residual.
– A carrier is a must, so you don’t accidently bleach the carpet.

RECOMMENDATIONS
– I used the pad to clean the top of the seat and lid first, then switch to the internal part of toilet.
– I used a towel and spray cleaner for the majority of the outside of the toilet, then wipe down the lid and seat last.
– I then use the towel when done to wipe off the wand.
– I will clean and flush toilet fast, then rescrub last time to leave clean suds in the toilet until the next potty use (plus it works as proof to the wife that I cleaned it!)

Overall, I am the king of toilet cleaning for my household. Not real bragging rights there, but my wife looks happier when I come home. I am still dreaming of ordering the robot neatos, but will use that as a back pocket power move when needed with the wife!
I hope this review helps. Let me know if you have any questions and if you there is something I could make clearer, let me know!

Modern, 21st century, commodes (toilets) from the top manufacturers are subjected to a nano-treatment on the inside of the porcelain bowl to make the surface smoother and more slippery. The super-smooth surface is much less susceptible to “skid marks” (you know what I mean) inside the bowl; and the bowl needs to be cleaned less frequently than untreated toilet bowls do. However, the surface treatments can be damaged by abrasive cleaners or by abrasive cleaning brushes, or by some chemicals, including bleaches, that are common in toilet bowl cleaning products, especially the leave-in-the-tank “automatic” dispensing toilet cleaners.

The porcelain surface of one of our toilets, a Toto Vespin II, has been treated with Toto’s CeFIONtect (formerly called Sanigloss) process. The porcelain surface of our other toilet, a Kohler Betello, has been treated with Kohler’s CleanCoat technology. Both surface treatments perform as advertised, and we are glad that the insides of the bowls of both toilets have been so treated, because the bowl stays cleaner, longer. Green Works toilet bowl cleaner is non-abrasive and is bleach-free, which makes it compatible with the manufacturers’ surface treatments of both of our toilets.

For years, we used, and liked, Ecover brand toilet bowl cleaner, Amazon ASIN: B004T33D3A, which is based on the LAURYL glucoside surfactant. But, a couple of years ago, Ecover jacked up the scent intensity of that product to the extent that an entire level of our house where a toilet is located smelled like Ecover toilet bowl cleaner, shouting “We just cleaned our toilet!” for more than 24 hours. The problem was not that Ecover’s scent is unpleasant: it is just VERY strong and very lingering; so we sought out alternatives.

First, we tried Ecos toilet bowl cleaner, Amazon ASIN:B004AHAU72, which contains a different glucoside surfactant, DECYL glucoside; Ecos proved to be as effective to Ecover, but it has a milder (and different) scent, more like the small of a cedar clothes chest than of a pine forest. It is a good alternative to Ecover.

We found our new “forever” toilet bowl cleaner with the product under review, Green Works toilet bowl cleaner. Based on yet a third glucoside surfactant, ALKYL POLYglucoside, it has proved to be at least as effective at cleaning as either Ecover or Ecos, and it has a mild and pleasant scent that does not linger for more than a few minutes after the toilet has been cleaned.

Green Works toilet bowl cleaner is a good product that performs exactly as it should perform, without damaging either of our respective toilets’ super-smooth inside-bowl surface treatments, and without intrusive or too-lingering scents that some other toilet bowl cleaners bring to the game. Recommended.

I use this on my kaboom toilet cleaning kit, much cheaper than the kaboom refill, which is the same chemical. I just break into 6 pcs each puck, last about 2 months (1/6 of puck) and continuosly clean the toilet bowl without line and bottom discolor of the toilet, no smell of chlorine. This will last about 3 years supply for my refill on 5 toilet. I don’t like the idea of placing the puck directly at the bottom of the toilet tank, might degrade the rubber gasket, flapper, more expensive to replace.
6/19/19 I found out Leisure time brominating tablet 1″ is a good substitute for this clorox 3″ puck (no cutting), same chemical composition.

( Clorox Toilet Bowl Cleaner 3” puck) Leisure Time Brominating Tablets Comparison
Ingredients: 1-bromo-3-chloro-5,5-dimethylhydantoin (51.0%,) 60%
1,3-dichloro-5,5-dimethylhydantoin ( 23.3%, ) 27.4%
1,3-dichloro-5-ethyl-5-methylhydantoin (9.0%.) 10.6%
Other ingredients: (16.7%.) 2%
Available bromine (33.3%) 39.2%. Available chlorine (37.7%.) 44.4%

I’ve been using this for probably 10 years now. Back in the day when I was married, my now ex-wife insisted on hiring a cleaning service. The cleaning lady commented that she never had to do much to our toilets because our bowls were the cleanest of her clients. I’ve installed these in all the places I’ve lived because it keeps the bowls clean, it doesn’t harm the parts in the tank (important now that I’m a homeowner again), and there’s really no smell. Sometimes I catch a slight scent of bleach but that’s it. This stuff is the bomb…I guess that’s why it’s called Kaboom!

I think some of the reviewers are dropping refill tablets directly into the tank, that’s why they’re complaining about the smell and dissolving parts. Trust me, you do not want to inhale any tablet dust when you’re replacing tablets. There’s a reason they come in such a thick wrapper…they’re potent. I imagine if you dropped them in the tank the house would smell and parts in the tank would corrode.

I really got a good laugh when using this product. 🤣. I pushed the tube onto side of toilet and now I have a big splot of gunk on my toilet wall (all 6 refills). I guess when it says to hold down the button, you gotta hold down the button. 😂.
