Easy-Off Bam: For Real Results, Stick With Another Product

Finding a perfect cleaning product can be a challenge at times. There are numerous products out there, but most of them just don’t seem to do the job. And those that do clean well are so strong it makes it even hard to breathe when cleaning.

The one product that I have always used is Fantastic with Bleach, but one day I was watching television and saw a very convincing commercial about Easy-Off Bam. My curiosity got the best of me, because in the commercial this product worked like magic. The actor in the commercial literally sprayed it on a dirty surface then simply wiped it off and Bam everything was sparkling clean.

I was ecstatic that finally here was a product that did not require any muscle work at all. Also, because I am a very busy person I thought it would certainly save me a lot of time and I can use the time I spend scrubbing to do other more pressing tasks.

So armed with my wallet I drove to Wal-Mart and I had only one mission in mind, to buy the magic cleaning product. Upon arrival at the store I went straight to the isle with cleaning products and there it was Easy-Off Bam in its majestic purple and orange bottle. I immediately grabbed it off the shelf and headed straight for the register, because as we all know it is very easy to get distracted at Wal-Mart, you walk in to purchase one thing and end up walking out with ten items. This time I was focused and walked out with just this one product.

Wal-Mart is about ten minutes away from my house, but for once I felt like I was not getting home fast enough to try out this new found product and get all the surfaces in my home completely clean. As I was making my way to my front door, I glanced at the bottle again and noticed that it even says Multi Surface “Power” cleaner! At this point I could not contain my excitement; I wanted to scream for joy.

I fumbled with my keys, unlocked the door, set my wallet and keys on the kitchen counter and headed straight for the bathroom. Now the moment had arrived and I was about to say goodbye to all the years of scrubbing because all I had to do, as per the directions, was “Apply directly to the surface or with sponge and let stand for 1 minute. Wipe and rinse thoroughly with water to avoid drying on surface”. So after 1 minute I started wiping, nothing, the dirt was still staring at me. I then rinsed the bathtub with hot water, nothing, no change at all. Then I decided to spray it for a second time and repeated the entire process. I even decided to scrub with all the strength I could master, yet to my disappointment the bathtub looked exactly the same like before I started the cleaning process.

Half an hour later I gave up and reached for the old and faithful Fantastic with Bleach and cleaned the bathtub the best way I knew how. However; not wanting to admit defeat I went to the kitchen with Easy-Off Bam in hand and tried to clean the stove, still no results! Therefore, I came to the sad conclusion that it does not work. The lesson I learned from this experience is “stick with what works and don’t take commercials too seriously.”
