It's a good, sturdy bottle too -- really important if you don't always practice good desk discipline, and sometimes knock things over (I'm admitting nothing here...). The smell is not too unpleasant, but really you'll want a well-ventilated area to use this in, as if you leave the bottle open you're going to get a headache and maybe lose a few brain cells.
My only wish was that I could stock up on a little more, which I don't really advise at the moment -- when I bought it in October 2019, it was under £8, but looking at the price today I can see there's a hefty 50% extra on top of that. I'm not going to knock any stars off, because what I paid when I bought it is a very fair price, but I might not be as kind if I bought it today.

The good:
1. Sterilising, as far as I understand it will kill germs as long as you allow it to dry and evaporate on its own which it doesn't take long, between a few seconds and a few minutes depending on how you use, best to not use a cloth.
2. Cleaning, I've used it so far to clean off dirt, dust, permanent marker, ink, smudgy fingerprints, leftover sticky residue (from tape, stickers etc), oil and even light rust (it can't 'fix' rust, but it can clean off the worst of it, if wanted), I've used it for many more things but I think the current list is long enough to get the general idea.
3. Cheap, it's seriously good value, I use it very, very often and still have some left, I think it's amusing that when I first got it I thought 1 litre was far too much for what I needed and it would never get used.
4. Safety-cap, I suppose it is worth mentioning the cap is a safety cap, you need to apply downward pressure and turn to open it, but really... if you have kids you should make sure they never get their hands on it anyway.
5. Repairs, well not so much repairs but it is suitable for PC work and hardware, I messed up a thermal paste application to an AMD CPU once and got it on the pins, I poured a small amount of the alcohol into a shallow plastic tub and put the CPU in pin-side down, gently shaked it for about 2 minutes and then removed it, I then got another tub and filled it with fresh clean alcohol, placed the CPU in again to clean it off and then allowed it to air dry, thankfully the CPU worked fine after I installed it, however please do not take what I've said for granted, maybe I got lucky as I only did the alcohol bath as a last resort and the gold plating is permanently discoloured but seems to be working fine nonetheless.
The bad:
1. Fumes, probably to be expected at 99.9% pure but the fumes are pretty damn strong, if you keep about a metre away you probably won't smell it but if you have to work very near it, like when it's been applied to a facial pad to clean something, you may want to try holding your breath and turn your head away from it to take a breath, I'm not kidding, it really is that strong.
Not pleased with this purchase considering the cost of isopropyl alcohol when only buying 1 bottle!

sure you would imagine) so make sure you wear a mask when using, although thats not necessary. And if you get any on your skin, dont worry just make sure you wash it off with water only. It kind of feels dry on skin even though its a liquid. Overall I would say buy this if your in need of some rubbing/cleaning alcohol. The price and functionality of this product is perfect for its intended use.
