This product was delivered in a brown cardboard box.
Upon opening the box, we noticed that the light-colored product box was padded with plastic film. It would be desirable for the manufacturer to consider a more environmentally friendly packaging option.
Instructions for use in German are included for each of the different bottles.

This grill cleaner set was subjected to a thorough practical test, during which several components were cleaned after a barbecue evening.
In terms of cleaning performance, it was found that even stubborn, caked-on residue can be easily removed , especially after soaking in water with the cleaner . For lighter soiling, such as on ceramic surfaces or porcelain, simply spraying the cleaner on is sufficient —no soaking time required. After a short soaking time, the stainless steel special cleaner leaves a shiny and beautiful stainless steel surface.
During the practical test, about one-fifth of the bottle’s contents was used, so it can be assumed that the cleaning set is economical enough for multiple cleanings.
The grill cleaner is very easy to use, and the spray nozzle is easy to operate. The product can be used immediately after purchase.
In the test, the grill cleaner was applied with brushes and sponges and then rinsed off. Both cleaning tools work very well with the cleaners; cleaning rags can also be used.
Regarding temperature, it was found that the cleaners can be used on both cold and hot surfaces (e.g., stovetop, grill grate), so there’s no need to wait for everything to cool down.
The cleaning performance and versatile use (grill and kitchen) of the cleaning set stood out particularly positively in the practical test .
