A CLEANING fan has tested out three viral cleaning hacks so you don’t have to, but was left with very mixed reviews.

Laura Mountford tried out a quick and easy sofa cleaning method, as well as a shaving foam mirror tip and a bicarbonate of soda plug hole hack. 



Laura took to social media to share her thoughts on the simple hacks, as she revealed what she would recommend to do instead.

She said: "Testing viral cleaning hacks so you don’t have to.”
