I Never Thought I’d Love a Scrub Brush, But This Clever 2-in-1 Find Changed That (It’s Only $9!)

A couple of months ago, I was having a riveting conversation with a friend about . . . bathroom scrub brushes (The pivots you begin to notice your conversations taking as you approach your 30s never ceases to amaze me). Now I may be the one who does it for a living, but we both love discovering fun products, especially online. That’s when she asked me if I ever heard of the Unger 2-in-1 Bath & Tile Scrubber Brush. 

Immediately, I answered her, “Is it one of the electric scrub brushes that are all over the place? Because I have one I can recommend.” (You can check that one out here). That’s when she explained that it was actually, gasp, a manual scrub brush she saw on Instagram. You see, with the rising popularity of electric brushes, I was surprised to hear her talking up what I thought was just a simple, everyday find. That is until I put it to the test for myself.

So, what makes this brush a standout? It’s simple really: the smart, 2-in-1 design. This brush is meant to make cleaning your tub a breeze thanks to its rounded bristles at the front that make getting into corners a breeze and a flat, base brush that thoroughly scrubs every other kind of surface. Complete with a nonslip grip, this brush features a triangular-shaped handle that provides maximum comfort and scrubbing power while not slipping in wet hands. Best of all, while the brush is designed for the bathroom, you can easily use it wherever your heart desires. 

Always a sucker for a good cleaning find (especially when it’s affordable), I picked one up to put it to the test myself. While I swear by my electric scrub brush, I do like to keep a manual brush around in case 1.) I forget to charge my scrub brush ahead of time or 2.) I have a particularly stubborn stain I want to tackle with a little elbow grease.

I decided to test this brush out with one of my favorite tub cleaners: The Green Laundress’ Tub Scrub. After prepping the tub with the solution, I got to scrubbing and boy was I surprised. Not only did this brush help me get a thorough clean, I was impressed by just how well the rounded edge got into corners. In fact, I had one particularly irksome grout stain in the corner of my tub that I had been trying to get rid of for ages. Wouldn’t you know, a couple of minutes with this brush and it was gone. Reader, I never thought I’d fall in love with a manual scrub brush ever again but, alas, here we are.
