Review on 🚽 Sellemer Toilet Brush and Holder Set: Flexible Silicone Bristles, Compact Size for Bathroom Storage, Ventilated Base - White by Tim Camp

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Comparison: Sellemer, Lefree and Boomjoy

I wasn't sure which of the three I liked better. I was fascinated by Sellemer's flat triangular shape. I liked the Lefree's round, compact look, and the Boomjoy had a nice tweezer attachment (which allows me to clean my hair down the shower drain). Also, Boomjoy was the cheapest of the three. So you can see in my photo the type of packaging they come in. Sellemer and Lefree also come with a small piece of plastic that you can attach to the wall and hang the brush on yours. Wall. Although I'm not entirely sure I need it. I also placed all of the brushes next to the coffee mug so you can roughly see their size. I like Sellemer because he's slim. Lefree is also quite compact. Boomjoy has the largest base, so it seems to take up the most space. But the size difference, as you can see, is minimal. Lefree and Sellemer brushes "hang" on the drain, that is, when you put the brush in the holder, it is hung and there is a ventilated bottom. Boomjoy is a solid floor and the brush sits in it like a bowl. I suspect that this can cause water retention and doesn't dry as easily/quickly. All three required rotating the handles, which was easy enough for all three. I liked the handles on Sellemer and Lefree, not Boomjoy. Boomjoy was the only one that had a piece of metal on the handle, but for some reason it felt a little flimsy. The other two had full plastic handles. This is my first time trying silicone brushes and overall I like the way the old bristle brushes clean/work. slightly below the lip. But when I tried all three, the flat triangular shape actually made it feel a bit more fragile, so I didn't feel like I could hit the toilet that hard. I liked that this brush head had good density with silicone bristles. Lefri: What was missing most from this nozzle were the silicone bristles. They all stood at some distance from each other. But it still seemed clean and I was able to push it against the edge of the toilet and it got there just fine. As good as Sellem. I felt like I could press down on the toilet's surface pretty hard to rub off some of those harder water stains. Boomjoy: It has denser silicon bristles than Lefree but smaller than Sellemer. It also worked the same as Lefree. I could easily reach under the rim of the toilet and rub the surface of the toilet quite hard. To be honest, they are all "Made in China" products, so the quality is about the same for all. So you really decide what little details and style you like best. Personally, knowing what I know now, I would buy Lefree. Although the bristles were the least thick, they cleaned just as well as the others. It has a small footprint with a ventilated bottom. I just didn't really care about the faint feel of the flat Sellemer triangle. And the non-aerated bottom of the Boomjoy bothered me a bit because I think if water pools and drips next time I pick it up it's going to be awful. I love having tweezers, but are they really necessary? It also has the largest base. However, I love its very sleek looks and the fact that it doesn't put its mark on the floor. If the price bothers you, the Sellemer was around $15-$17 depending on when you buy it. I see a lot of price fluctuations. Lefree costs about $13. And Boomjoy cost $9.99. Overall all three worked quite well and I think I'll stick with the silicone over the bristles from now on.

Pros
  • Easy to clean blind spot: The flat brush head can be bent to perfectly fit the corner of the rim and reach under the rim. The tip of the brush head is designed to better clean the rim of the toilet by bending the brush head upwards.
Cons
  • boring packaging
