Product Description: Sometimes it's hard to tell that vegetables ever grew in the earth. Other times, especially with root vegetables, it's very evident and that's when more than a mere rinse is required. This nylon bristle brush fits comfortably in the hand and will scrub dirt away easily. Amazon.com Review: Carrots and potatoes, beets and broccoli--no matter how round, bumpy, or odd the surface, this brush's flexible body will follow the contours. The nylon bristles are strong and sturdy, dislodging dirt in deep nooks and crannies. The Good Grips line features durable, nonslip flexible handles on every product. Ergonomically designed to fit the palm comfortably and softly, the pressure-absorbing processed rubber handle puts less tension on the hands, while providing an outstanding grip. Made from the same material as dishwasher gaskets are constructed of, the handles are slip-proof, wet or dry, as well as dishwasher-safe. Good Grips products are moderately priced and have won the Tylenol/Arthritis Foundation Design Award. --Laurie Notaro Customer Reviews: Rating:

Sturdy
Very solid brush. The bristles are stiff, should be no problem scrubbing lots of root vegetables for a long time. The handle is slightly rubbery to make gripping easy. I like this brush a lot.
Only one complaint. When I placed one bristle-side down on an "across the sink" dish draining rack for several days, one of the rack's bars pushed some of the bristle groups apart. So, now, the brush has "bristles akimbo." The brush was lying on the rack at a strange angle, but I had not used any force to jam the brush into the bars. So, I was disappointed that the bristles were susceptible to this. Rating:

Love this brush!
Long ago I had a Swedish veg brush that could make veg pristine with a few strokes. This brush does just as well and has the added bonus of a very comfortable handle. Happy to have this cleaning power again. Rating:

The Best
Of the many vegetable brushes I've used over the years, this is the best by far. For years I've used the brand my mother used, even though it didn't do a very good job of cleaning vegetables and even though it wore out quickly. I accidentally came across this brush while shopping for a friend and figured I had nothing to lose. Am I ever glad I bought it: it fits my hand perfectly, is comfortable, and the brushes are strong enough to take the dirt off immediately---no scrubbing and scrubbing. For anyone who ever washes root vegetables, this is the one. Rating:

Stiffer would be better, but it is good and easy to store and use
In general, I prefer a stiffer vegetable brush. This one is at the margin of being too soft. Apart from that, it is easy to use, easy to store, and easy to clean. I'm glad I bought it, and use it nearly every day. Rating:

Not the cheapest, but works well
OXO didn't really do anything to reinvent the vegetable brush on this product -- which is odd considering fixing something that isn't quite right about a utensil is their core business. I've used other vegetable brushes that work equally well and feel equally comfortable in my hand. The one thing that makes this brush nicer than the others I've used is a more stylish look which lets me leave it out on my countertop by the sink. The bristles also seem stiffer and haven't showed any signs of wearing down like an old toothbrush. That may happen later with more use, but so far, so good! |
