Bottle Brush, 14in Extra Long German Beechwood Handle, Strong Hemp Bristles, Zero Waste, Cleans and Scrubs Hard to Reach Wide Mouth Jars, Glasses, and Tumblers

You will use it more than you think.
I am a little surprised at how often I reach for this brush. It has mostly replaced my sponge for cleaning dishes or pans under running water, as my hands stay dry and the stiffness of the bristles works very well. It also does well cleaning my coffee carafe with a little dish soap, or cleaning coffee cups with a little spin. It does a good first pass on a cast iron skillet. It gets the oatmeal scum or rice residue out of my pots. It also is a reasonable vegetable scrubber. I like the plastic-free aspect in the new era of concern over nanoplastic exposure in foods and wastewater. It is well made and the proportions are pleasing. The long handle is never a hindrance and occasionally a big advantage. (like for the coffee carafe). If it wears out in a couple of years of daily use that is ok, I would buy another one.

Greatest brush
I love these brushes and only lament how hard they are to find, the length of time spent waiting for them to ship, and the fact they do not come in different sizes. Despite these drawbacks, this is a staple in my home and I always keep an extra on hand so I am not without while waiting for the next. They hold up better than plastic and silicone under daily hard use. Their scrubbing power is unmatched. My hope is this company starts catering to different size needs. I would love a thinner and a much thicker brush.

Works-but what is that smell??
I wanted something natural & not plastic. This works great, but there is quite a strange smell when it gets wet. Thankfully it goes away when dry, but weird

Made from fresh whole plant stalks (not desirable), instead of cleaned and processed hemp fiber
I bought this brush to clean my water bottle. I wanted a brush with natural bristle material instead of plastic, bc natural bristles scour the interior surface of the bottle more vigorously than plastic bristles can accomplish with the same amount of elbow grease. The description says the bristles are hemp, and i assumed that meant it would be the same type of hemp fibers as are used to make hemp rope. That’s not the case though. These were made with whole plant stalks (I’m assuming hemp stalks) that are pretty much straight off the plant. There’s even about 5% green plant material comprising the bristles. Normally hemp is processed to separate the desirable fibers from the rest of the plant material. The bristles in this brush however were presumably made from the whole plant stalks , not just the fibers. So when i used the brush for the first time, i had to vigorously wash the brush head for about an hour to get rid of as much of the non-fiber material as possible. The water i washed it in was left dark brown and full of spongy non-fibrous plant matter after each of the first several washings. Eventually after about 30 washings which included brushing the bristles with a fine toothed metal comb to scrape off everything that wasn’t fiber, i was able to get it so the wash water was just a light yellow color and mostly free from extraneous plant material. That cleaning process removed about 50% of the bristle material from the brush’s head, leaving the brush head a ghost of its original volume. I should have returned it, but I’m disabled and the process of returning something is often more work than just making the best of a bad product as was the case in this instance. This is the wrong brush to use for cleaning water bottles or for cleaning anything that will make contact with food or drink, bc even after the rigorous cleaning i gave it, the brush still excretes acrid compounds which foul the otherwise pure water i put in my bottle. It would work well for scrubbing boots, tools, or anything like that. I just wish the seller explained that, instead of describing it as a brush for cleaning bottles, jars, and dishes, bc it absolutely should not be used for that. To be fair, the description does state that it’s made from “fresh hemp,” but in over 40 years of using hemp products, I’ve never encountered hemp for an application like this that wasn’t cleaned of its extraneous plant matter before being sold. Live and learn.

No entra en ninguna botella, ni siquiera con boca ancha. Si lo intentas queda deformado. No sirve para nada.

bei der bestellung steht extra long! habe nachgemessen, der stiel ist genau 27cm lang. so lang wie jede normale bürste.ein kleiner scherz.
