Someone on another thread said there were absolutely rubbish, the thread was about cleaning "something" then i asked about it, the poster said don't waste money on it.

I absolutely love mine but I got it for £4.99 from Home Bargains.

It's not rechargeable though. I chiefly love it for cleaning irritating corners in my uPVC windows. It's good on taps. I wouldn't bother for grouting .

Not that one but had the Pink Stuff one and it was pretty useless and gave up the ghost completely after a few weeks.

I've got one and love it - mine's from Aldi and it's brilliant. I don't use it for mould on grout though, that gets a spray of HG.

Next time you upgrade your electric toothbrush, just keep your old one for cleaning.

Another vote as per other PPs, it’s a bit of a waste of time/ money for me. I bought it for grout - didn’t really shift it much and now I use HG mould remover foaming spray which does the job almost too easily.

I like the idea of trying the electric brush on the nooks and crannies of upvc windows - I expect that would work well so I’ll give that a try

I have one. It’s a bit crap really but has an extendable telescopic handle which is good for hard to reach high tiles in the bathroom. I use it when I get out of the bath, give everything a supersonic scrub and then shine with a dry cloth. For me I’d say, rubbish for real cleaning but quick for daily maintenance cleans .

I got the Pink Stuff one. It broke on the first use, it was meant to have changeable heads but the first one I tried got stuck and wouldn’t come off. Apparently it’s a known problem with them.

I have the Sonic Scrubber, I don’t use it that often but I love it for getting into tricky corners, around plug holes and so forth. 12y DD was using it for something upstairs earlier (don’t ask me what, I heard her but couldn’t see her), as far as I’m concerned if it gets her cleaning it’s a win!

I have one with a short handle - £20 from Lakeland - and it does a good job of doing round the sink, taps and cooker top, also give my worktops a scrub every now and then with it.
Rechargable and holds it well.

We love ours

The Pink Stuff one is a cheap copy of the proper SonicScrubber. I had the Pink Stuff one and it broke after about a month. Absolute rubbish. The genuine Sonic Scrubber one costs a bit more but so far ours has been going strong over a year and is a lot more powerful than the pink one. It's not perfect for everything but is good for grout, window frames and around the taps- those sorts of jobs. It has four different brush heads but it isn't big like the JML one with the handle, which might be better for floors and stuff.

I've got brush attachments for my cordless drill which are great for scrubbing my floor tiles.
