AsteriskRating Disclaimer

Reviewing products, like reviewing movies or restaurants, is arguably a subjective process (even for well-funded consumer groups) based on the review criteria (what the reviewer considers important) and the unique perspective of the reviewer. Thus, when considering The Housekeeping Channel's reviews, please do not use the numerical product ratings (e.g., "9.5 out of 10") for direct product comparison purposes since these represent the unique 'take' of each reviewer, and will often vary qualitatively and quantitatively from product to product.

Do rely on the text of the reviews for issues to consider when purchasing similar products, and do consider the scientific data supplied (for example, information from the Carpet and Rug Institute's Seal of Approval-related research) that will help you in your decision making process. We believe the "truth" about products can only be discovered by weighing, then averaging, a number of factors and credible viewpoints based on available resources and science, then making buying decisions based on what is important to you.

Pros

  • Convenience: Especially if you have children, these wipes are quick to grab and dab.
  • Portability: Handy for use in car, office or when traveling.

Cons

  • Similar results can be achieved for lower cost if the user has immediate access to properly supplied laundry facilities.

The maid service Quality Cleaning Maid to Order tested Stain-X Stain Remover Wipes on fresh organic stains of blood and grass, on blue jean and cotton tee shirt materials. We also targeted fresh ink stains - black ballpoint pen - on microfiber furniture.

With each test we found that the Stain-X Stain Remover Wipes indeed removed the stain. While the ink took several attempts to remove, the outcome was worth the effort.

We have since tested these wipes on older ink stains, and on these the wipes did not fare quite as well. For the effectiveness rating above, we gave the wipes a 10 on fresh stains and an eight on older stains - an average of nine.

In all, we say the Stain-X Stain Remover Wipes are handy to keep around the house for fresh accidents.
