Better LivingProducts 17253 LOOEEZ Hygienic Toilet Squeegee/Brush, White with Grey

The amount of blasphemy that poured out of my mouth with the first use of this thing was exactly what religious truckers decal the sides of their trucks to warn against. Sometimes a product is just better. This, this "NOT A BRUSH" for dealing with unmentionable things, this stupid little twist of rubber that really shouldn't be impressive, this rando piece of cheap-o-I-bought-this-purely-for-curiosity-because-I'm-a-dork, somehow this thing is one of those products. It is just better.I am the designated toilet cleaner in our household and have been pretty much since we got together in 2003. So I kinda figure I know what's up with toilets and toilet cleaning and toilet cleaning supplies. I have learned "tricks." I have cleaned toilets of... dirt, we'll call it dirt, that has been caked on for longer than anyone wants to think about that sort of thing due to more people than one's stomach can comfortably handle. So, yeah, I think I know my... dirt. And sometimes i like to pretend that I am a special snowflake and like not everyone cleans their toilet. I know. But it's a review, I have to pretend to be qualified somehow.As a "Whee! I'm so excited!" for getting a house, I decided I would get a new toilet brush because the ones I had to match our apartment were old and didn't match the decor of the new home. And as a lark I saw this and thought, I would have never thought of that. It's cheap and I've just spent way too much money and locked myself into paying a lot more money to a bank for 30 years, let's celebrate and try it. If it's too bad, it's not like I can't just walk to the drug store and buy a brush that'll do until I find an actually pretty one. I wanna try a squeegee. And I figured I would be walking to the drug store soon enough.Nope.I have never found it easier to really GET under a toilet rim. This thing, without any extra effort than I would use with a brush, drilled right through a stain left by the previous owner (...sigh, let's not talk about the previous owner or the state he left the house in). A stain under the water that I was dreading getting to because I was expecting it to be a challenge after draining the water. But this thing just powered through. By tilting the squeegee screw I was able to shape the "brushing" to exactly the shape of the part of the toilet. The closest I can compare it to is the brushes with the second, harder, wire brush looped to the back at an angle for you to pull up into the under rim, a piece that is specialized for that special place. You just turn and pull and it works somewhat better. The entire back of the Toilet Squeegee is that equivalent special shape here. The pointed front is the special shape for the place where my new toilet narrows. The sides are the normal brush. Spin one way and it is a soft wipe. Spin the other way and it is a hard dig. Plunge and it is is a screw, swirling the water and cleaner to force it across the surface. And, for my particular experience, plunge into the back and while it might not work as a plunger it does work considerably better to lower the water level and expose more... dirt to clean without the water in the way to protect it.At least in terms of my first cleaning, after a moment of getting used to it, it does not work exactly the same as a brush, I feel like this is a better product than a toilet brush. Like some invisible line has been crossed in the same way that we switched from records -> tapes -> cds -> mp3 players, I feel like this is the cd of toilet cleaning compared to the perfectly servicable but just not as good casette tape of toilet brushes. It's barely better, they will perform exactly the same tasks, but how it is better is significant. It's a different beast doing the same job.Ok, not really a review without all the sides.What I don't like about this thing: It looks nice-ish. Nicer than what you buy for $10-$15 in the drug store. But for $30 at a home decoration store, you would be getting a toilet brush and holder that looks significantly nicer and have options to match your specific decor and not call so much attention to the fact that there is a dirt cleaner over in that corner, growing ugly quick on its ugly work. The Squeegee is fine, it's not ugly, it's even got a nice streamlined swoop to it that I can appreciate. I'm just used to prettier for that amount of money and I would love some choices instead of trying to hid it because it really doesn't match what my bathroom or new home look like. I expect if Better Living ever does have the +$10 model with pretty options I'll just buy that and quit my complaining.What I can't say about this thing: I'm writing this in excitement after my first use. I can't say how easy it is going to be to clean when exposed to more... intense dirt. It's essentially self cleaning with a strong plunge at the end of light work. I don't know that I would want to touch it to my face it but I'm certainly fine with the look and smell after that swirling forced rinse in water and bleach. When a swish of water and bleach won't cut it... I don't know. Those twists get pretty tight toward the tip and I can see it being a real pain in the... you know... to scrub in there. But I don't know. The rubber is pretty flexible bending the correct way. So it might be just fine or easy as well.Additionally, I'm clueless about wear and tear. Nothing in my first experience gives any suggestion of how it will hold up. Nothing seems particularly weak or strong. I would say I'll update when I know but I'd be lying.Would I recommend it? I think it's pretty obvious I'm recommending this piece of dirt... cleaning equipment. I'm freaking impressed.Would I buy it again? Well, my new home has two, count them TWO (WOOT!), bathrooms. So I'm going to need two toilet squeegees if I don't want to carry them between over my floor which may or may not have real wood in all that plastic. So I'm on here to buy a second squeegee, right now. And because I am a special snowflake and know, without ever knowing you, exactly what is best fo you, you should also buy it right now because [string of expletives deleted] it's just better.

I like it so far, it is built with quality products and seems to be assembled to last. It is better than the bristled brushes, they hold water and stuff after you use them, even if you rinse them off. This cleans the bowl easily enough and you can rinse it off, tap the water off and it dries very quickly. I will be getting 2 more for the other bathrooms. It takes a minute to get used to the fact that it isn't bristles, but besides that, no issues. Since it cleans off easily and dries quickly it should be last a lot longer than the old school toilet brush.

This is a horrible way to clean the toilet! It doesn’t clean the toilets. It’s a rubber cleaner. Brushes Clean 100 Percent better. I’m disappointed in this product!!!!

This is a huge improvement over standard toilet brushes and better that the other silicone/squeegee designs out there.* The curved, twisting blades work like actual squeegees to clean way better than a brush. You can actually hear them squeak across the porcelain. Think about cleaning a window or mirror with a plastic brush vs. a squeegee. The squeegee gets things much cleaner.* The tops of the blades do actually get under the rim and clean well. No more scrubbing at odd angles, still unsure than you got the entire area well.* The blades don't hold water like bristles do. A single flush is enough to get rid of the cleanser and used water. When you're done, there are only water droplets left on the blades. The open design allows the blades to dry quickly and keep the holder completely dry, too.* Because the greatly-reduced ick-factor and the fact the the blades won't get worn out like plastic bristles, I expect this to last much longer than a regular brush.* The white and warm gray colors help this fit discreetly in just about any bathroom.It feels weird to use words like "game-changer" or "improved technology" to talk about a toilet brush but they really do fit here. After using one of these, a standard toilet brush seems kind of primitive and gross.

Works well, better then I expected. No scratches in my bowl. Clean often for better effects. No cleaners used so far on my new toilet. I clean it twice a week. Only takes 2 min tops! Drips water efficiently, stays clean!

Besides the fact that it doesn't clean your toilet, which is its only function, and it's incredibly expensive compared to those that do clean, this thing adds insult to injury by splashing toilet water all over you every time you try to use it. I don't know why I keep kidding myself and trying again thinking, maybe I'll figure out some secret trick to make this thing work. It's garbage, don't waste your money!

So easy to clean after use. But it doesn’t scrub as well as the old bristle one did also doesn’t reach in the same cracks as well but it gets the job done and is way more sanitary than the competitor.

this toilet bowl brush is amazing. It gets right under the rim of the toilet- and no drippingwater on the floor- Highly recommend
