Who would ever think that a casual trip could be complete without a kit of shoe cleaners? It was a huge mistake to not have a shoe cleaner and it cost me dearly. The sneakers were stained permanently when I used soap to wash them. Philips Sneaker Cleaner, an inexpensive device that can clean your shoes from dirt and stains, would have been a great idea.

I have been using this handy gadget for a few days and can tell you it’s worth the money. Here’s my review of the Philips Sneaker Cleaner that you probably didn’t realise you needed in your life until now.

Why should you invest in shoe cleaners

For someone who owns multiple pairs of sneakers for different events, keeping them clean can be difficult. I don’t call myself a sneaker collector but maybe I am headed in that direction. Our shoes get wet whether we walk down the street or run the morning.

Even though I’m not an expert on sneaker care, I do know that there are many cleaners, wipes and kits available to restore your shoes. In fact, some of the home solutions don’t cost much but you don’t know how they will react, considering every sneaker is made of a different material ranging from canvas to nubuck and doesn’t usually come cheap.

When searching for sneakers cleaners it’s important to remember that some solutions may not be safe to use on all types of finishes. It is also best to review product information to ensure you don’t damage your favorite pairs.

I have had a positive experience using Philips Sneaker Cleaner

I knew about premium wipes and brushes for sneakers but had no clue you could also buy a  battery-operated and portable sneaker cleaner. It comes with three types of brushes, and can be charged by AA batteries that are easy to replace.
Its design is similar to a hair dryer. The shoe cleaner can be carried around in a small, lightweight, and convenient way. It is only 35og in weight and has an IPX5 water-resistance rating.

You can tell that this cleaner has serious business credentials by the three-tone design of the device. You can turn the cleaner on/off by using a single button. You will find the four AAA batteries at the base of the handle. If you’re a frequent traveller, a case for your travels would make it more convenient to keep the batteries in place.

When you turn it on, the cleaner will start rotating your brush. You get 3 removable brushes, each with a speedy motor of 500 RPM. They glide smoothly on your sneakers. The first one is a soft brush – designed for multipurpose use, which is safe to use on mesh and canvas materials. A hard brush is ideal for tough materials such as textured rubber and the soles of shoes. A sponge brush can be used to clean soft materials such as leather. These brushes are washable with soap and water, depending on what material you’re using.

Although the device can be used with all cleaning solutions, it’s best to use regular shampoo for everyday cleaning. Use water to wet the toothbrush, then switch the cleaner on. Once the cleaning is complete, use a dry towel to wipe off the sole of the shoe.

The Philips Sneaker Cleaner is a time-saver for me. The device is innovative and useful. The only problem with the sneaker cleaner was that it should have multiple speed settings.

Do you need to buy the Philips Sneaker Cleaner

If you are a sneaker fan, 2.5595 Rupees It might seem like a small price for maintaining their favorite possessions in top condition. This might not be a cost-effective or necessary expense if your sneaker is the only one you own. I was impressed by the lightweight design; the controls couldn’t be simpler.
