AIBU to think silicon could end the toilet brush debate once and for all?

[cheeseismydownfall]

I was bought up in a No Brush household. I have no idea how the toilet got clean. Bodily functions of all kinds were unmentionable.

Fast-forward to having three children, and faced with the reality of wiping their shit off the toilet bowl (and, now they are old enough, asking them to reliably wipe their shit off the toilet bowl) I was forced to revisit my deeply held distaste for the toilet brush. I gave in, bought a couple, and yes, they rapidly became every bit as revolting as you would expect. But what to do?

Enter the silicon toilet brush! Effective, never get dirty, and somehow (I don't know how) you never, ever end up with poo water in the holder. I got mine from Amazon, they were only £6.99 and they seem to last forever.

Could the silicon toilet brush finally bridge the divide between two of mumsnet's longest standing factions?

Silicon brush has arrived...thanks be to Amazon Prime. I am nor stalking my toilets looking for nastiness to scrub.

My Joseph Joseph brush arrived over the weekend. Very pleased with the way it looks - like a big hairy tongue! - and how it works. It slides up under the rim don’t ya know!
I got this one.
