I agree. The sound is really bad. I have been frustrated with t.v. shows that do the same thing. The backround music is louder than the voices. That's why I'm watching youtube instead. LOL
I tried a silicone washing up sponge and it was useless because it was so soft with no abrasion. Everyone's raving about silicone toilet brushes but I just can't see that you'd be able to do any real scrubbing with them, it's basic physics. Bizarre that all the reviews recommend them.
I'm wondering if it helps to really let the bowl soak in the toilet bowl cleaner first, she left hers for I think she said 10 minutes? Might help break everything down so the silicone doesn't have to work as hard. I just like how much more sanitary it is so if I can find a way to clean well with it I will😂
I just use neat vinegar, works a treat, you have to leave it for about 5 hours to really work, but everything comes clean and it’s better for the environment 🙂
Two suggestions: 1. Do not scrub with a lot of force when using a bristle brush. Let the tips of the bristles do the cleaning. If you push the bristles flat, you’re not getting the full benefit of the design. This also saves on brush wear. I’ve used the same brush for years and the bristles are still straight and unfrayed. 2. Remove the toilet seat. Most seats are easily snapped on and off. With the seat removed, you can more thoroughly clean the flat surface underneath-including the mounting holes. The seat is also more thoroughly cleaned when detached. I just take it out back, squirt it with a garden hose, then let it air dry. If that’s not an option, then use a utility sink or even the bath tub. My father was a full-time janitor, and I earned my spending money by helping him on his weekend jobs when I was in high school. It’s amazing how much I learned, including how to save time while still doing an efficient job.
Thank you I obviously didn’t know this about the bristle brush. My toilet seats don’t come off and I didn’t check this one (not mine) since it was all about testing the brushes. My toilets are to clean to see any difference. So I found someone who let me clean theirs. Ha ha
I doubt that sparse silicone bristles would clean well. I used joseph joseph flat toilet brush with little silicone bristles but it didnt work well. I got eco friendly coconut bristle brush works really well. Just needs to drain and dry well, which it does if you leave the brush leaning in bowl after cleaning..
this may not be as obvious....but once ur done using the brush...use the disinfecting spray to spray down the brush head...then use the toilet bowl rim cleaner to top it off by swirling it around the brush a few times....(my brush always stays clean that away.)..& use the disinfecting wipes to wipe dwn the head of the cleaning bleach gel...(once u use it around the toilet rim itself)....that way it dont stay grimy....then use a disinfecing wipe to wipe dwn the container of the disinfecting wipes itself...
Shouldn't damage anything but I'm skeptical that it would work. If you used a brush attachment to scrub, maybe. But I'd worry about it being too abrasive. After I was frusrrated that the rim didn't come clean, the homeowner told me the toilet was dirty for years. The person who owned it before didn't do much cleaning.
Because it's not my toilet. I have to go to other people's houses to find messes to test products and methods. You can't tell at my house. I need to be more clear that it's not my toilet.
Hi Clean Freak, We use a Lubeka in the bathrooms instead of a toilet brush, they are expensive but I’m assured one will last a lifetime. These are more for everyday toilet spot-cleaning rather than scrubbing, but we also use it with a deposable washing up sponge when the toilet needs a proper scrub so now we’ve been able to throw away all our brushes.
hmm, just thinking about it for a bit, i do like the idea of a silicone brush for longetivity, but wouldnt it technically clean worse since it is so waterproof it cant really retain or slosh the cleaning water around well enough for the cleaning process? so essentially you would be almost trying to scrub with a "dry" brush? im also thinking it would probably do awful against mineral stains from water, but im not someone who knowingly has hard water, so any rings i get in my toilet tend to be purely bacterial-- but thats also coming from the perspective of someone whos been using a normal plastic bristle brush for years, perhaps just never letting hard water stains build up to a visible amount, all without even knowing, due to the more abrasive nature of the plastic bristle brushes. i'm just tired of toilet brushes turning orange with rust, and thats mostly why i'm thinking to try a silicone one. even if theres no visible metal, it seems like plastic bristles are always mounted with some sort of metal inserts which eventually rusts, especially if you soak your brushes to clean them. ive done some lazy tests soaking my brush in bleach or in acid solutions, and only the acid removed the stains, so i figure they were rust related and not bacterial.
When you talk, it'd be easier to understand you without music. Thank you.
Thanks for the feedback. We can add words on the screen to help on this one.

@AvaPilsen Thank you! I came to comment this, too. Why is music necessary? I can't subscribe, but, here's a comment, Clean freak and germaphobe.
True. The music is so annoying & distracting
@@CleanFreakGermaphobe even the subtitles are having trouble! (i tried at 75% speed - not much better!)
I didn't want to watch this...but I had to!
Pro tip, don’t play music in the background that overpowers your voice.

5?
If you dont have 5 hours, then try to heat the vinegar up, put it in the toiletbowl and wait 5-10 minutes instead
I’ve found the best way is to just use a sponge or scotch brite pad to scrub the bowl.

Ew no rags! Use paper towel
I have a silicone brush that I am replacing today. It's horrible.
Ok why do people love them?? I don’t get it!
@@CleanFreakGermaphobe They look more stylish but in this instance, function is more important than form.
So you can use microfiber on toilets and get them clean? How when you can't wash them on hot water?
No one...
my mind: GOJO BRUSH
Does water leak through the vent holes?
music is too loud.

I haven’t tried a coconut brush yet!

thansk for real test, you dont only lets play adds :)
BUT - what do you do with your rag afterwards? You cannot happily put it in your washing machine.
Yes that’s where it goes…it’s purpose is to clean and disinfect.
I do but I soak it first overnight and use a hot wash dry it on the outside line
Lysol whipes to clean outer part of toilet.
Is this video about how to clean a toilet or a brush show down I’m confused lol 👎!!
It’s to see which type of brush does a better job of cleaning a toilet.
Can you use a steam cleaner under the rim? Will it damage anything?
Shouldn't damage anything but I'm skeptical that it would work. If you used a brush attachment to scrub, maybe. But I'd worry about it being too abrasive.
After I was frusrrated that the rim didn't come clean, the homeowner told me the toilet was dirty for years. The person who owned it before didn't do much cleaning.
Thanks for the video!!:)))
Thanks for watching!
I don’t understand your saying your a clean freak but this is next level filthy ???
Because it's not my toilet. I have to go to other people's houses to find messes to test products and methods. You can't tell at my house. I need to be more clear that it's not my toilet.
Flag design for a toilet brush cover..that s bad..
Shoot, I never thought of that. Maybe I'm subliminally suggesting that our country is in the toilet?? Oops! I should try to get something else.
Overthinking at its best
Silicone toilet brushes are made more for Stainless steel toilets.
They're not marketed that way though and so many people think they're amazing. I wanted them to me but...

I've never heard of it, thanks, I'll check it out.

I'm no physicist, but I would think there's a lot of moisture clinging to the porcelain. Maybe enough to ease the friction?
I’m not sure it’s rust that’s turning your toilet brush brown, mate…
