OXO Good Grips Deep Clean Brush Set

As a kid, my mother made me clean the basement bathroom (the one that everyone used) every weekend before I could hang out with friends. It wasn't just a "scrub down the shower stall, wipe the sink, and clean the toilet" job, either. I had to scrape the grit from the door rails and clean every little crack and crevice until the bathroom sparkled. Needless to say, I hate cleaning bathrooms to this day, and while a general disdain for the task is my primary motivation, there is also the fact that my hands cramp horribly when trying to get into the tighter areas, such as behind the sink faucet. If only there was an easier and less painful way of getting to those places!ConstructionEnter the OXO Good Grips Deep Clean Brush Set (henceforth referred to as OXO DCBS). Until I bought these I generally found myself browsing the generic toothbrush section of my local store. While toothbrushes do an "okay" job, the bristles are too uniform in size and are generally never up to the task of a vigorous scrub. This is where the OXO DCBS comes in: while they look like toothbrushes, they are far more durable and functional than even the stoutest Oral B product.• Each brush has a separate function. The larger brush has stiffer bristles and a flatter surface, making it ideal for cleaning grout. The smaller brush is not as firm, with the bristles being tapered away from center, ideal for cleaning tight surfaces since the bristles will reach the desired area even when the brush is angled.• The silicone tip/chisel at the opposite end of the smaller brush is ideal for cleaning the rims of the drain or getting gunk out of a tight corner. This end will not scrub, but it is both firm and flexible enough for the tip to clean out dirt that is loosely packed where the brushes just can't get enough bristles into for cleaning.• On the back of the brush head on the larger of the two is a small rubber indentation that you can press your finger into for those really grimy messes that need some extra elbow grease. This gives you a bit more control so that you can get what you are cleaning as sparkling as possible.• The black areas of the brushes are the same grip that OXO® uses on many of their cooking products. If you are not familiar with them, the black areas are a rubberized coating that enables you to maintain a good hold on the handle, rather than having it slip from your hand when you are vigorously scrubbing with it.Okay, Stacy, the detailed description is great, but is the OXO DCBS worth the money?YES! With the rubberized grip to ensure that you can get a good scrub, a silicone chisel tip to clean out gunk in tight places, and TWO different brush heads that serve different functions, you will never need to worry if you grabbed the wrong toothbrush to clean the commode again! Being able to clean the base of the faucets around the house all of the way around, including behind them in tight locations where a backsplash prohibits maneuvering your hands, almost makes the cost worth it by itself.Between small details like being able to press down on the back of the brush head in order to scrub a bit harder on a particularly dirty area, the wider-than-a-toothbrush handles that have that familiar OXO® rubberized coating to ensure a safe grip, and the host of other features that I listed in the “Construction” section of this review, I am very happy that I purchased these brushes. No, I still loathe cleaning bathrooms, but at least now I will be able to clean those tight spots easier, quicker, and without my hands locking up in pain. I can honestly say that the OXO Good Grips Deep Cleaning Brush Set is worth the money.

Behind the kitchen and bathroom porcelain sinks are areas that are tough to reach with normal size cleaning implements. The front of the faucets is accessible but the back is both close to the edge of the sink and the edge of the sink is close to the wall and attempts to stay ahead of any build-up is with mixed success.As soon as I saw these brushes and flexible silicone wiper blade I knew they would assist with the clean-up, and they do. And, that wiper blade is also the perfect tool to go around the edge of the garbage disposal and sink drains. I have been using a bamboo skewer but this is a definite improvement.With tile kitchen counters there is the constant maintenance of the dreaded grout lines, which to add to the problem are black. So the grout shows, no matter how careful I am, every bit of flour, sugar, corn meal, etc. The two brush heads in this set have the perfect amount of stiffness which means I do not have to press down too hard to brush out the debris so the job gets done without damage.The handles have a matte silicone-type coating so they are easy to grip firmly even when wet. Bottle brushes and other cleaning brushes usually last for six to twelve months depending upon use and I expect these to easily survive that long. Designed for ease of use and functionality – excellent tools.

Came a little crushed. Looks useful for for floor tile grout and tight placed, tennis shoes folks that keep soles clean.

I love the versatility of these brushes. They are small, but mighty! I have purchased two sets. One for bathroom use, to clean the cracks and such. And one for kitchen use. I use it to clean my vegetables. I really appreciate the usefulness and the durability of their productivity. Plus, they are easy to grip, and don’t slip around. Great job!!

I bought these to replace a Joie brand small brush I have had for years. These Oxo brushes are easy to handle whilescrubbing debris off plates and pans. I like having two choices in size of the brushes. The larger one has a more stifftype bristle, while the smaller one is more soft. (Choices)! Recommended.
