Kmart shoppers obsessed with dupe of viral cleaning buy

"“Go out to Kmart and get yourself one of these bad boys." 

If you’ve entered the phase of your life where you’re excited by cleaning supplies, or you've ended up on #CleanTok, chances are you’ve heard of Angry Mama.

The budget cleaning product has become renowned for its effectiveness and efficiency.

But, with less and less local retailers stocking the product - and that’s if it’s even in stock - it’s getting harder for Aussies to get their hands on it.

Thankfully, as per usual, Kmart has stepped in with a new viral solution - and it’s even more affordable.

“Get yourself one of these bad boys!”

An Aussie Kmart shopper has taken to Facebook to share his latest buy.

“Go out to Kmart and get yourself one of these bad boys, definitely works,” he wrote.

The man shared a photo of his newly purchased (and already much-loved) Microwave Cleaner from Kmart.

The product instructs users to fill the cleaner with vinegar and water, place it in the microwave and let the steam loosen built-up grime and odours in just seven minutes - sounds familiar, don’t you think?

Do you really need it?

The post accumulated hundreds of comments, with many asking why such a product was necessary in the first place.

“If you could just use a mug with water and vinegar!” one person said.

“Water and slice of lemon, heat for a couple of minutes. Wipes clean and smells fresh,” another agreed.

“This works amazing!”

However, the now-viral product also received plenty of love, and with a 4.9 star rating on the Kmart website, it’s clear everyone agrees - despite how ‘scary’ she may look, she definitely works!

“I love this thing as well hahaha the face kills me so I have her stored on my window sill,” said one commenter.

“She looks so funny going around in the microwave so angry,” another agreed.

“This works amazing I’ve tried the bowl of water with vinegar - this works better because of the holes on top which releases the steam,” said a third.

And, bonus points, it’s just $3.
