3.0 out of 5 stars Scrubs well, still need to wipe, though, December 10, 2007

By	Anne Gables - See all my reviews

I've used it twice now - it's not bad. The handle isn't really long enough to be that effective. Sometimes the handle turns when the power of the scrubber yanks it to one side - but not bad on the whole. The whole squirting feature I gave up on. It works, but it's just easier to squirt with a bottle on the side. The product is shown scrubbing behind the toilet, which I tried, and it works great - except that after you're done scrubbing, you need to wipe up the solution - so you have to get down on your hands and knees anyway.

The whole purpose of the scrubber is to scrub - which it does just fine. I got so into it I scrubbed just about everything in my bathroom (cold and flu season, you know). I was extremely pleased with the results. It makes cleaning a bit easier, but it's still a chore.

The shape of the brush scrubber works well, but it's too big to get into corners well - I believe there are other brushes you can purchase and I'll look into that. The scrubbing pad is great for flat surfaces, like tile and shower doors.

5.0 out of 5 stars I no longer dread cleaning the tub..., February 20, 2008

By	BlueSquares (Florida) - See all my reviews

I read all the reviews and I still bought it. Fact is, I hate getting on my knees and scrubbing with my hands while constantly banging my knuckles against the tub. My wife hates it, too. This thing is a huge welcome relief as long as you keep a few things in mind.

Firstly, yes, the batteries will eventually run out. This is how all rechargeable batteries are. The most you can do is charge it fully for the 1st 16 hours, then use it until it's drained. Then repeat the process *forever*. Don't ever plug it in while it still holds a charge or you'll risk creating bad 'memory' in the battery. I just cleaned the upstairs tub in 5 minutes and it still has power.

Secondly, don't bother putting fluids into the fluid reservoir. I personally put water in it to rewet the areas that have Comet/bleach.

Finally, the thing works. It cleans and it cleans well. It's RPMs aren't that fast, but it's a strong, slow turning that will clean all that grime off. It's handle is extremely comfortable to hold and well thought out. Just watch out for the backspray while cleaning. After a few minutes you'll get the hang of it, though.

If the batteries die on this thing, I don't care. I'll buy another. Either way it has a 2 yr warranty so hopefully Black and Decker will own up. Regardless, I can't ever see myself scrubbing with my hands again. I found mine on sale at the local Tar get for nearly half the cost as this site.

As usual, be sure to keep an eye out for the idiot reviewers on Amazon. The ones that are never happy and expect perfection in everything they buy. And the ones that keep the thing plugged in every day, all the time and are surprised when the batteries no longer hold charge. Take care!

4.0 out of 5 stars Decent Tool - Minor Issues only., December 29, 2007

By	Trout Snout Lout (Irvine, CA) - See all my reviews

For a guy, there's nothing like the satisfaction of using a power tool to clean your tub, especially if it's got the Black & Decker logo on it. I used it to cut through soap scum on my glass tub door in less than 5 minutes - a process that used to take 30+ minutes, and the less I'm exposed to cleaners, the better.

Fully charged it has LOTS of torque, and doesn't stop spinning if you press down on it, which is a big plus over many other "autocleaners" I've seen.

This great tool has two shortcomings, however. First, the battery cannot be removed, which is a big drawback if you run out of power. There's just enough power to super-clean your average tub and sink though, so overall this isn't too bad. But it also means that when the battery eventually wears out it's adios for your tool! Second, the built-in sprayer is a joke... just use the can and save yourself the effort.

By the way, the best cleaner I've used is actually a normal car buffer/polisher (any brand will do) with a scrubbing sponge hotglued onto the faceplate. Works like a charm and no batteries to worry about - just keep it away from the water if using in your tub!!! And once it's clean, WAX THE TUB and watch water and soap bounce harmlessly off the walls, making your next cleanup a snap.
