Product processing & appearance

The dirt eraser from the TiefenRein brand is a household helper that can remove stains from a wide variety of surfaces.
The product has the dimensions of a small household sponge and has a side with nubs that generate additional friction to remove surface discolouration.
The scope of delivery includes six sponges as well as instructions for use that guide you step by step through the cleaning process.
At 20kg/m3, this product has an impressive density and stability and was highly effective in practical tests – it succeeded in removing stains and residues from walls, kitchen and bathroom surfaces.
The dirt eraser impresses with its uncomplicated and simple handling and the fact that cleaning is only possible with water and without chemicals.
This is a consumable product that can be used several times until it is completely used up.
It would be desirable to switch from plastic packaging to a more environmentally friendly packaging option .

This product was delivered in a cardboard envelope that was well suited to the size of the product.
Inside the envelope is the plastic-wrapped product.
In addition to a total of six erasers , the packaging also contains a flyer in DIN A5 format and in German, which provides important tips and instructions for use. The tips printed on it are perfectly adequate for using the product to its full extent.
With regard to the plastic packaging, it would be desirable if the seller could consider a more environmentally friendly alternative.

When you pick up the erasers for the first time, you will notice that they are about the size of a small household sponge used for washing up. Due to their size, the erasers are easy to hold.
The erasers are white in colour and have a knobbed structure on one side. Due to this structure, it can be assumed that good friction can be generated during use.
The erasers are slightly elastic and give a little; they appear to be sufficiently stable .
This is a consumable product – although the erasers can be used several times until they are used up, it is not a product with a very long service life.
Overall, this product made a very good first impression.

At the time of testing, the product was not yet listed on Amazon. Therefore, there are no customer reviews yet, so this point is neglected in the evaluation.

Prices of up to €14.99 are charged on the Internet for equivalent products. Very cheap products are available from as little as €3.33 . The dirt eraser from TiefenRein is therefore currently in the lower price segment with a price of €4.99. For the quality and performance received, the price-performance ratio is very good.
