Open Broken Fridge With Folded Clothes And Photos On Door

Why is Mrs Hinch so insanely popular? (Plus our #hinchhaul)

You probably never in a million years thought you’d hear people say, “I can’t wait to get home so I can start cleaning”.

But that was before you heard of Mrs. Hinch.

We’ve been banging on for years about the importance of cleaning appliances to help them last longer. And we’re pretty sure in just a few weeks Mrs. Hinch has converted more people to the cause than we have! She does a 10/10 job of keeping her appliances spotless.

Mrs. Hinch, we salute you.

But wait, who is Mrs. Hinch?

Put simply, Mrs. Hinch (real name Sophie Hinchcliffe) shares videos of herself on Instagram doing the cleaning.

That might sound ordinary enough, but she’s got over 2m followers on Instagram, has been featured in the Daily Mail and OK! Magazine and even appeared on This Morning.

If you don’t get why over 2,000,000 people would want to watch someone cleaning, we understand. In fact, we thought exactly the same thing before curiosity got the better of us and we watched her stories.

Then, we realised that there are quite a few reasons why this particular lady has got the whole country cleaning mad.

Pink Cartoon Of Cleaning Products

  1. In a word, Mrs. Hinch is real. She’s down to earth about the cleaning tasks she hates and is the first to have a laugh at herself. You can’t help but like her.
  2. It turns out having a spotless home at all times is possible. Mrs. Hinch proves it. Her daily and weekly cleaning routines are realistic and doable on a budget.
  3. Her cleaning products aren’t just cleaning products. They have names and they get tucked into their bed. (Yes, really.) They’re a lot more appealing than your average scrubbing pad and you feel a lot more guilty for leaving them unused.
  4. The #hincharmy is a love-filled online community that shares cleaning tips and appreciation for each other’s spotless homes. It’s easy to clean when you’ve got thousands cheering you on. Who knew disinfectant spray could bring people together?
  5. Last but not least, Mrs. Hinch’s methods genuinely save effort. That’s all any lazy cleaner (which let’s be honest is most of us) wants from a cleaning guru.  

Plastic Tub Full Of Cleaning Supplies
Here’s what you think you know.

  • Perfectly clean houses are for people who don’t work and have no family or pets to speak of.
  • Cleaning is a chore that you’d rather put off for as long as possible.
  • It’s more fun to put your feet up on the sofa than into a pair of “buff tings” pink mop slippers. (This is an important part of the hinching routine.)

Well, there’s nothing wrong with having an untidy house. We’re all busy and we’re only human.  

But if you do aspire to have a spotless home let Mrs. Hinch take you to Narnia (her cleaning supplies cupboard) where you’ll meet Minkeh (a humble cleaning cloth) and Stewart (a rather snazzy electric scrubber).

Yeah, we can’t really explain. You’ll just have to see for yourself
