My home based company, doing ceramic and stone restorations, has used these grout brushes for years and were VERY happy with the product until the company, OXO, decided to change the look and texture of the bristles. What you see pictured to the right is not the brush you receive, but rather the old version. The new design has an altered head shape and the bristles are much softer and splay apart quickly like the cheaper versions found at the large box stores. In the past I have gotten the pictured version at Ace Hardware for the price of about $8.00, exspensive but because of their bristle sturdiness well worth the price. My question is this....OXO, why change a functual design, and Amazon, why not update your web site with the current picture of the product?

This is a great grout brush, with a nicely designed handle that's perfect for giving the grout an good ole marine scrub. Unlike the other reviewer, I think this makes a lousy dish brush. The brush is designed stiff and narrow. For a dish brush, I would prefer something with more surface area, like the ones OXO makes.

we purchased a floor steam cleaner which does a great job on the tiles, but can't get the grout. This brush does clean the grout very well, in a short time.It is constructed well, and designed well, so the hand doesn't get tired.

I have used this for about a year and it is holding up really well; a good sign for any cleaning brush. I used to struggle with a plastic scouring pad becaused I didnt know a cleaning tool like this was available. My wife found it on line. It is an excellent tool that really helps getting the job done fast and right

This is a great brush for smaller tile areas, such as shower or tub walls. Probably not what you would use on a large ceramic tile floor, unless you are only going to spot clean an aria. Unless of course you don't mind being on your hands and knees cleaning a large area.

Living in Florida I have over 2000 SF of ceramic tile area to clean, and I don't think I would care to do it on my knees. I am looking for a sturdy grout brush such as this but with a long handle. So far I have not been able to find one that suits me.

This brush has a row of very stiff bristles in the center, and another row going around them that are not quite as stiff. The handle is quite comfortable to hold and work with plus feels sturdy enough to apply pressure. It did an excellent job on my shower wall grout, and some spot cleaning on my floor. This brush is also great for cleaning along wall edges and corners.

Oxo Good Grips makes some great products at reasonable prices, I know since I have some other items from them. I would definitely recommend this brush.

I first tried an old toothbrush to clean the grout between our floor tiles--it worked , but was a LOT of work. This brush made it so much easier. Won't ever try to clean grout again without it!

I ordered this Oxo grout brush to go with the Eureka Environ steam floor cleaner, but the brush came first, the steam cleaner took a month to arrive and still hasn't been used. I have been using the brush on grout and dirt on my tile floors (living, dining, kitchen and hall). The tile is rough textured and was hard on my nails when I tried scraping stuff off, but this little brush is doing a great job!
I have an Amazon parrot and her droppings were very hard to get up off the rough tile and grout. I am so glad I bought this brush! It's great and so far isn't
showing any sign of wear. My nails and paring knives thank Oxo for making the brush and Amazon for suggesting it when I was ordering the steam cleaner.

This works great. It does make you tired - I'm sure any 'elbow grease' scrubbing would, but it works. It could use a little bit stronger bristles, but then maybe it would scratch.

The OXO Good Grips 3781 Grout Brush does a good job cleaning very dirty grout. I'm using it with Hoover AH30285 Floor Mate 32-Ounce Tile and Grout Spray and Hoover FloorMate SpinScrub Wet/Dry Vacuum Cleaner, H3044.

My process is to spray a heavy coat of the grout cleaner, wait 4-6 minutes, scrub with the Good Grips Grout Brush, wipe up the excess cleaner and loosened dirt with a sponge, and then scrub with the FloorMate.

I like the Grout Brush, but there are two improvements I would make. First, I would have a longer handle. With the short handle, it's definitely a hands-and-knees operation, and that wears thin when you have many square feet to clean. Second, I would make the bristles stiffer. I've used the brush to clean about 450 sguare feet of tile, and the bristles are already beginning to seem a bit mashed. That might be because I was cleaning very dirty grout, but it does make me think that the life of the brush may not be that long.

This is especially helpful for those of us with arthritic hands. Scrubbing the grout lines was so much easier than im old way~with an old toothbrush. Wonderful too with good design!
