If you don’t want to just set the base on the floor, you can stick the pad to the wall and mount the base on the wall. Coming with two brush heads (one nylon bristle brush and one silicone brush), this toilet brush spins at a speed of up to 300 laps per minute, providing a powerful scrub that removes even the toughest stains. Be sure not to throw away the black plastic coupling on your brush when you discard the head (a female end)—you’ll need it to attach a replacement head. The trees were made from the same animal-hair bristles used in the brushes, except they were dyed green.

During testing, the container stayed upright with some bumping, though it may tip over if you accidentally kick it. Today toilet brushes are commonly made of plastic, but were originally made of wood with pig bristles or from the hair of horses, oxen, squirrels and badgers. We were quick to dismiss toilet brushes whose holders did not allow for airflow, as well as those that had no holder at all. The LooBlade is a toilet brush with an 8-blade silicone head and hydrophobic properties that sheds water and dries quickly.The caddy also has a small magnet at the top that holds the brush in place, suspending it above the bottom of the caddy. The first successful artificial Christmas tree was made from brush bristles by Addis using the same machinery used to manufacture its toilet brushes. The drawback with the Simplehuman brush is that it’s on the expensive side compared with some others we tested.

He lives in a very demanding 250-year-old farmhouse and spent four years gutting and rebuilding his previous home. Overall, the brush performed well, but due to the softness of the bristles, they may require additional pressure to really clean the inside of a toilet. Most brushes simply had nothing to distinguish them from hundreds of other cheap, white plastic brushes. These—they came in a pack of four—plastic handled scrubbers look a bit like an oversized q-tip, using the fluffy sponge like fibers to both soak up liquid and spread cleaner around the bowl.

We recommend the Clorox ToiletWand Disposable Toilet Cleaning Kit, which is lightweight, has Clorox pre-treated disposable heads, and an easy snap mechanism to attach and detach heads. We found the large head too big for cleaning a toilet because it sprayed water everywhere in and around the bowl. The Goodpapa toilet brush is a water-resistant, electric spinning toilet brush with UVC sanitization.

We used each of the eight brushes to clean three different toilets that are used by real humans, at an office and in two different households. That said, if you get easily grossed out by using the same toilet brush repeatedly, a disposable pick is perfect for you. The brush heads are preloaded with Clorox cleaner, which means you don’t have to use a separate toilet bowl cleaner solution, and they kill 99.
