Scrubbing Bubbles Fresh Brush Flushable Toilet Cleaning System —

I HATE cleaning toilets, so when Scrubbing Bubbles came out with their flushable brush cleaning system, I was out the door to buy it. I love Scrubbing Bubbles, and have used their cleaners for years, but they went WAY wrong with this product. The concept is great, a handle that you attach a flushable brush pad on, and then use to scrub inside the toilet. You then just press the release on the handle, and poof, the brush comes off in the toilet, and you never even have to touch it! Flush it down, and the dirty deed is done. Sounds ideal, but usually when something seems too good to be true, it is, and that is the case here.

The Bad:
There isn't much bad, but this 1 problem makes it not worth the money. When you place the brush into the water, it just all sticks together, and when you try and scrub, it just sloshes around. The brush, when dry, is several layers of textured pads that have slits on the edges. This is where the "Scrubbing" should take place, but once wet, forget it, you have mush on a brush. I could never get the bowl as clean as I would like with the brush pad, so I ended up using my plain old toilet brush to finish up the job.

The Good:
It isn't all bad, but, in my case, the bad outweighs the good. The starter kit is fairly inexpensive, and so are the refill brush pads, so if you do like them, they won't break the bank. The cleaner that is in the brush foams up when it gets wet, and it is a great cleaner, but plan on using your plain old scrubber brush to spread the cleaner. Also, the brush pads break up easily, so they are safe for septic systems.

With some re-design, this could be a great item, but until that day, forget it. Regular old toilet scrubbing will have to continue to do.
