Mrs Hinch fans rave about 30p hack which gets microwaves sparkling again
HEATING UP food in the microwave can leave stubborn stains behind.
But cleaning fans have revealed the simple 21p solution to get them sparkling again without scrubbing for hours.
Mrs Hinch, whose real name is Sophie Hinchliffe, 32, has long been a fan favourite, with close to 4.5million followers on Instagram.
The star rose to fame a few years ago with various home hacks and now her fans have even started dedicated cleaning pages on social media.
In one such group, Mrs Hinch Cleaning tips and tricks on Facebook, a member sought advice: "What does everyone use to clean the inside of a microwave?”
Not only can food particles leave stubborn stains but they can also become a breeding ground for germs and bacteria if not cleaned regularly.
And there was one tip that kept popping up in the comments, the Express reports.
Taking to the comments, one wrote: “Lemon juice in water and put on high for a couple of minutes. Stains will wipe off.”

“I also use lemons, great 21p hack for sparkling microwaves," another user suggested, saying: "Seriously, lemons are your best friend when it comes to cleaning, they can be used for loads of different jobs.”
Lemon juice evaporates and clings to food particles and grease, making them easy to wipe away.
Plus the PH balance and antibacterial properties of lemons makes it a great natural cleaner, while leaving a fresh smell behind.
Lemons can be purchased from Sainsbury's for as little as 30p.
Other cleaning fans recommended using Elbow Grease to help get rid of stubborn stains.
