A woman has shared how she cleaned her extractor fan filters in just five minutes using a popular product she calls a 'kitchen essential'. Charlotte Kennedy achieved what she described as "unbelievable" results and posted her method on the Mrs Hinch Cleaning Tips and Tricks Facebook page.
The cleaning method
Kennedy sprayed her extractor fan and filters with Elbow Grease solution and left it to work for five minutes before wiping everything away with kitchen towels. She wrote: "Just started to clean my extractor fan as I was bored I had to share as I love how well this has cleansed off. I used Elbow Grease for the first time with kitchen roll and I can't explain how happy I am!"
"It has cleaned the year's worth of grease right off and given a shiny finish! It's unbelievable! Defo recommend Elbow Grease it's a kitchen essential for me! No going back."
Product price and availability
Elbow Grease is available from retailers such as Robert Dyas for £3.09, from Amazon for £2.30, or at Asda for £1.20.
Fellow cleaners impressed
Other cleaning enthusiasts in the comments section were equally impressed with the product. Alice Connor said: "It's the best. It works like magic on grease."
Kayleigh Alice replied: "I sprayed Elbow Grease degreaser over mine and left for about five minutes then just used a sponge and they came up beautifully. Put mine in the dishwasher last time and whilst they came up very clean they are now tarnished."
Stephanie Berry said: "Elbow Grease is insane. I spray it on overnight for better results then I wash them out with hot water comes right out and looks brand new." Cassa Port wrote: "I don't use anything but that when cleaning in my kitchen."
