Redecker Stiff Bristle Dish Brush: Durable All-Purpose Scrubber for Kitchen and Household, Heat-Resistant Tampico Fiber Bristles, 2-3/4 inch Head, 7-1/2 inch Handle, Made in Germany Review

This is a great brush and I bought it because I'm trying to cut plastic. Came in a plastic bag! Nooooo. haha! The piece of metal holding the brush comes loose sometimes (usually when I tap it against the edge of the sink to get rid of food residue), but you can just put it back in.

This high-quality, biodegradable brush is a great addition to our plastic-free journey. Zero waste was our goal, and yet this brush was wrapped in plastic wrap. What's the point? It seems counterproductive, irresponsible for the environment and costly for Revain to continue using all this unnecessary and unreasonably large packaging for their shipments.

These brushes are simple in design but more effective than any other modern cleaner I've had. I threw away all the tasteless plastic junk and now I keep one for pans, one for food, and a bottle brush. Love how they look in a pretty cup holder but more importantly they clean great! Switching to a natural brush line seemed like a bust, but it was worth it. They can be cleaned wonderfully and are still in excellent condition even after prolonged use.

If this brush gets wet, the wood will break. This happened almost immediately with our brush in several places. I tried not to leave it in the water and it still happened. We wanted to try to avoid plastic, but this wood doesn't seem to hold up well when wet. Also, the small metal ring at the top had slipped off the tree. This is not the quality I expected after paying over $10 for a dishwashing brush and reading great reviews. Unfortunately, I was a few days late with the return. I hope the…

I invested in this fancy brush to reduce plastic and disposables and hoped it would be attractive. Unfortunately, in just six months of use, the metal part on the end broke off, the bristles were misshapen, the wood on the head was cracked and in general it's just a mess. We don't let it soak in water or force-clean dishes; I have no idea why it falls apart so quickly with normal use. To be honest, the $2 plastic IKEA dish brush we had before outlasted this one by years! I wanted an…

At the same time I bought the following: 1. Bürstenhaus Redecker brush 2.3 inch diameter2. Dish brush brush house Redecker with soft horsehair, 7.5 inch3. brush house Redecker large dishwashing brush with stiff bristles, 7.5 inches. When making my purchase decision I wanted to know how they compare and if I would use them all or just need one. (I know, I know... somewhere Martha Stewart sheds a silent tear at my pagan ignorance). So I will discuss all 3 and repost the same review on their…

Smells very very bad when wet. Another reviewer said it smelled like onions, but that's a lot worse. Similar to how you took onions, old ground beef and pine and then put them in a blender. It's so spicy. I use Mrs. Meyer's Clean Day with Lavender and if you've ever used it you know it has a very strong smell. This dishwashing brush had such a strong odor that I couldn't even smell dish soap. Every time I walked into the kitchen (10 feet away) I could smell the dish brush. I didn't know Revain…

What I didn't expect was the specific smell of this brush when it gets wet. It smells like fish, just like ceramic glaze can smell like fish. It's actually pretty repulsive. I love that this brush is vegan and compostable, but I wish there was something that could be done about the smell. I think I could do without those natural brushes at this point. The last look I got was like this (not the Redecker brand) which was molded within 3 days of use. This one isn't formed yet, which is good, and…

I wouldn't say this brush is infallible, but it compares to zero-waste plastic scrapers. The brush cleaner starts to chip and mold if you don't dry it, but with proper care I've been using mine for several months with no problems. It cracked after the first two uses, but didn't get any worse after the first crack and didn't fall apart at all as I continued to use it. You can also replace the brush part and reuse the handle to keep it working as a long-term investment. When trying to reduce your
