The Loogun

Never heard of this must look it up!!

I just mistyped loofun on google There really is a Loo Fun & he's a Chinese executive for a mobile network - who knew??!!

No you're not daft - I love my Loogun! Mine came with a tiny screwdriver (check bottom of box). To be honest you don't need it as its only for a child safety point of view if u want to screw the battery compartment but it's fine without. I just used normal batteries I got from pound land and it works brilliantly. I live in a houseful of boys so the Loogun comes in very handy!!

What on earth is a Loo gun??

I looked it up and am not convinced !I can see the GSs using it as a watergun/pistol , would a waterblaster do the same ? lol

Aggie, I did wonder that after I had bought it . DH is charging batteries , so will try it out tomorrow. Stand by for blast off.

Just googled it. I want one!

I saw on FB someone ask this question about the water pistol but apparently that wouldn't get marks off from below the water line - you need the motor to provide enough power to clean below water.

Looks good. Where did you buy it?

Think I'll stick to thick bleach ,and toilet cleaner under the rim

Wouldn't the water from the toilet splash back up at you?

I've just read the blurb. How the hell do you get stubbon stains in your toilet. To me a stubbon stain is one that has been left to fester and not dealt with at the time.

Well I honestly don't know how you have bought one - I've been to the website and the only option seems to be to register my interest and they will contact me by email when the loogun is available. How did you get one, Auntieflo and Momb?

Hi Indinana - you just go to their website - www.loogun.com - and at the top it has a 'order now' tab and just hit that!

Also I think when it says 'stubborn stains' it's just a polite way of say poo marks that didn't go away with the first flush!

Morning all. We received our Loogun on Saturday, and unpacked it. It is actually larger than I thought, and there was no screwdriver inside. You need 4x AA batteries to power the thing, and we had a long email explaining that we should use top of the range rechargeable ones. OK, so we did have a screwdriver, and DH charged up the batteries. We, I, have used it, and am not terribly impressed, as it takes a lot of 'squirting' to clean the bowl, minimum staining. TMI. We will see. I did email the company, telling them about lack of screwdriver, and received one in the post yesterday. It is minute , about two inches long, and easily lost I should think. At the moment it is on trial. Watch this space.

I hit the 'order now' button several times and nothing happened. Think I'll have to revisit - I want one, and so does my DD!

Does it shift hard water marks? Which is more to the point round here.

What the flip is wrong with a squirt of domestos and a brush?

I've had five toddlers through this house now, and not one of 'em chewed on the lavvy brush.

Total rubbish.

Anyone else got a Clog Cannon from flylady.com? I've not used mine on the loo but it needs no batteries and is brilliant at unblocking bath and sink plug holes.

strange Auntieflo that you required a lot of squirting - we find it just needs a bit of a squirt and all marks vanish in couple of seconds. I literally get annoyed when my boys do clean number twos as means I can't get my Loogun out!

Jinglbelfrocks - i hear what you're saying but i don't want to keep putting bleach down my loo just to try and shift a stain - and that doesn't really get rid of anything quickly - and i hate loo brushes and their filthy bristles. It doesn't claim to get rid of hard water marks - i bought it for the sole purpose of not ever having to touch a poo stain with a dirty brush again and for that purpose it works brilliantly.

Happy toilet going everyone

Pair of disposable plastic gloves and a wad of toilet roll removes the unmentionables on the few occasions that a good flush doesn't work

Do people's diets need looking at?

Nothing wrong with lav cleaners. Flush before you poop to avoid a sore botty.

Rim blocks are good.

Useful for people with septic tanks as bleach and lavatory cleaners destroy the bugs that keep them flowing. ?

Hmm. Just a good scrub - with the lavvy brush?

Received my Loogun today. What a lot of money for a glorified water pistol, large though it is! However, it does the job a treat. I have never used a toilet brush as they are so unhygienic (rubber glove and loo roll for me), so look forward to getting the benefit of my new toy.
