Amazon.com Review
Carrots and potatoes, beets and broccoli--no matter how round, bumpy, or odd the surface, this brush's flexible body will follow the contours. The nylon bristles are strong and sturdy, dislodging dirt in deep nooks and crannies. The Good Grips line features durable, nonslip flexible handles on every product. Ergonomically designed to fit the palm comfortably and softly, the pressure-absorbing processed rubber handle puts less tension on the hands, while providing an outstanding grip. Made from the same material as dishwasher gaskets are constructed of, the handles are slip-proof, wet or dry, as well as dishwasher-safe. Good Grips products are moderately priced and have won the Tylenol/Arthritis Foundation Design Award. --Laurie Notaro

Customer Reviews

Survives dishwasher, soft bristles
The ergonomics are great. It's rigid, but has a slightly rubberized, uniform grip.

I do feel that the bristles are a bit soft, but that's ok. I use this a lot for mushrooms and tomatoes, which are fairly soft to begin with. In most cases, I peel or remove the skin from tubers. However, I like to cook my potatoes with the skin on. This brush doesn't do the best job on hard, low-starch, waxy potatoes (small red potato, white fingerling) that you'd use for potato salads, for example.

It's very easy to clean and survives the dishwasher (for 2 months so far at least).

not received/no refund
I am sure I would have been happy with the products, but when amazon can't ship to my correct address then I can't receive them and use them and review them for you. After over one month and with only a rude responce from amazon I still have not received my refund. Shame on amazon, rating 0 on scale of 0 to 10! I bet amazon will not publish this review.

Does a great job
I had just about given up on cooking potatoes with the skin left on because I couldn't for the life of me seem to get them clean enough to get rid of that nasty dirt flavor.

Ahhhhh. This little brush works wonders. I glad I happened across it and got it. When you are cleaning the tater you can see the difference between an uncleaned spot and a clean spot. The brush is large enough to make even big spuds quick work.

I'm 6 foot tall and have about average to large hands and the brush is just the right size. If your hands are bigger the brush should still be perfect. If you are petite and have really small hands you may want to get a brush with a handle.
