Customer Reviews: Average Rating:  Rating :  - At Last, a Toilet Brush That You Don't Have To Hide Away!
Simplehuman is a great company that produces some extremely interesting products for your home. They have chosen an unusual product line, which includes items like garbage cans, toilet plungers, soap dispensers, and of course the slim toilet brush. Well, I guess somebody has to make them, and Simplehuman does a fabulous job. Not only do they concentrate on making quality products but they have taken great strides in making these everyday items extremely stylish. These products are things that you would expect to see in homes of the very wealthy, and yet the prices of their products are very affordable. Still, some may hesitate spending $30 or more dollars on something as simple as a toilet brush. Well folks, this is no ordinary toilet brush!
I can't say enough about the looks of this brush set. Brushed stainless steel and black have proven to make a stylish look in the kitchen, but who would have thought that this combination would make its way into your bathroom? Well Simplehuman thought it was a great idea and I must agree. This toilet brush is slim and sleek, from the easy to remove brush itself to the holder, which has a nice pivot-open door and removable tray (for easy cleaning). The brush head is replaceable, which is a great feature, but you may have a hard time finding replacement heads. I buy mine directly from the Simplehuman website, which sells them for $4.99 each. Not a bad price at all. If you prefer white instead of stainless steel, Simplehuman sells this same slim toilet brush in white as well. The brush head has stiff outter bristles, for scrubbing tough stains, while the inner bristles are softer and fuller for regular cleaning.
I have gone on and on about how great this toilet brush looks, and yet I only give it a 4-star rating. Why is this? Well, as stunning as this brush and holder look, using it is slightly less satisfying; at least at first. Don't get me wrong, it works quite well, but it takes some getting used to. As a previous reviewer pointed out, there is no rounded end to this brush, which is fairly custumary on most toilet brushes. This makes it a little difficult to scrub way down into the drain opening of the toilet bowl. Also, the brush is quite slim, so you will have to get used to holding the brush for proper scrubbing. If you hold it wrong the brush will try to turn, which causes the handle to twist in your hand. Still, after using this brush a few times you quickly learn how to get excellent results. The stiff outer bristles are great for scrubbing under the rim of the toilet bowl, and the shape of the brush head is designed perfectly for this task.
Overall I am very satisfied with my purchase of the Simplehuman Slim Toilet Brush, and I would definately buy it again. If you are looking for a toilet brush that you won't have to hide away, and you are patient enough to allow yourself to get used to the unique shape and design of the curved brush head, then I would highly recommend this Simplehuman toilet brush. It truly is the best looking brush and holder set on the market today. The difficulty of using this brush to clean deep into the drain of the toilet bowl prevents me from giving this set a full 5 stars, but I certainly consider it a 4 and 1/2 star item. And I can honestly tell you that Simplehuman's customer service staff are extremely friendly and will go the extra mile to make sure you are a satisfied customer. Give the Simplehuman Slim Toilet Brush a home in your bathroom, and you are sure to receive a lot of compliments from others who visit your loo. =o) + See Full Customer Review |  |
