Am I missing a trick? Cleaning bathroom

10 replies

We are in the process of changing our bathroom and I’m keen to keep this one really nice. Where do people keep their electric toothbrushes? We have 5 and they leave a mess on the sink (leave a dirty rim around the bottom), fall in the sink all the time…am I missing something here?!

any other tips for keeping bathrooms in nice condition?

Google electric toothbrush holders.
You can get a unit that can sit neatly on the sink or shelf or even wall mounted holders.

Cut a hole in a cotton wool pad and put it on the charger, change weekly.

We have a wall mounted electric toothbrush charger in our new bathroom

I don't have an electric toothbrush so am not sure whether this will work for you. I have a shelf with a couple of flannels folded in half sitting on top of the shelf (essentially like tablecloths but for a shelf!) then all lotions, creams, toothbrush, etc on top - flannel catches all drips and goes in the wash once a week.

I bought a holder thing. It was going to change my life. Now that gets dirty...
I now pay my 15 year old to clean the bathrooms so it isn't my problem any more.

Ok I’ve found some holders, I hadn’t realised they did wider ones for electric toothbrushes. Can imagine those getting grimy too but definitely better option than straight on the sink.

I like the idea of a wall charger, didn’t know about those thank you!

We use a Joseph Joseph holder, I put in it in the dishwasher every so often

We just 3d print holders so you'll be able to get them on Etsy or folksy or somewhere I'm sure

I have a cupboard over my sink with a shaver adapter inside the cupboard, so I can charge my toothbrush out of sight. It's one of my favourite things in the whole house!
