Brush Design and Functionality

Pros:

  • "Sponge is great, gets nice and foamy, is big enough to clean the bottom of the bottles, and is soft enough to squeeze into the tight spaces of my pump flanges."
  • "The suction stand is great always stays in place."
  • "The nipple cleaner fits in all the bottle nipples with ease."
  • "The sponge does a great job of cleaning out the bottles and smooth surfaces and holds onto soap well."
  • "The chevrons on the handle do a great job with cleaning out the inside of the nipples."
  • "The holder is very handy and space-saving."
  • "Having both a sponge and a scrub makes them useful for cleaning just about everything."

Cons:

  • "The bristles would fall out and get everywhere the sponge would constantly need adjustment as it liked to slip out of the loop that was trying to hold it into place."
  • "The curve on the top of this brush is a way too much. So it made it a little hard to reach the middle which has an angle on the bottle."
  • "The brush is kinda spread out and leaving gaps in between which miss some cleaning spot."
  • "Pretty cranky about how much money dr browns keeps getting from us because this is the only brush that fits in that silly little vent and these things fall apart sooooo fast."
  • "Waste of money. Worst bottle brush ever I bought. In a week I am using it all the bristles were gone."
  • "After a bit of use, the sponge starts detaching from the handle."
  • "The sponge part on the brush tends to move around so I occasionally have to fix it."

Durability and Quality

Pros:

  • "This is my third brush from Dr Brown. The first one lasted a solid 6 months of constant use."
  • "I'm pleased of the time I got out of it, maybe I am expecting too much for it to last longer."
  • "We use only this brand to clean our kids’ bottles, cups, etc."
  • "LOVE the suction bottom (had another brand with a wobbly base that kept falling over. Super annoying. These are MUCH better!)."
  • "I have had this brand for over a year and it has only broken once."
  • "These hold up for a while too. Been using ours for 8 months and it’s still holding up just as well as when we bought it."
  • "For the price, I'll keep buying."

Cons:

  • "You get what you pay for here. It only lasted through 2 months of very light use."
  • "The main downside is that they do not last very long- the top has fallen apart fairly quickly on most of them."
  • "All three of my brushes broke where the wire meets the handle within one week of using each of them."
  • "The wire that holds the bristles and sponge will start to weaken and eventually snap at the handle."
  • "The foam falls apart within weeks and the wire snaps within weeks."
  • "The white brush part would unravel and the bristles would fall out."
  • "The wire 'rod' broke after 2 months of moderate use."

Value and Cost

Pros:

  • "Thank goodness these brushes are cheap."
  • "For the price this is the best!"
  • "Great price point and really like the stand to keep the brush from taking up countertop space."
  • "Also very competitive price. 3pcs packing set so convenient which makes it buy once and use for quite a long time."
  • "I definitely recommend buying this bulk 3 pack from Amazon for the $9 because my local Walmart is selling 1 bottle brush that is dr. Browns brand for $9 so Amazon definitely has the best deal possible!"
  • "They are also priced at a level where you get your money's worth before tossing them out."
  • "This product works great for around a month of heavy usage. After that it will start to fall apart but they are pretty cheap so you can easily just purchase a few of them and be covered for quite a while!!!"

Cons:

  • "I don't think it's worth spending too much on a bottle cleaner considering it's something that will have to be thrown away eventually."
  • "I was furious since I just spent another $5.00 on this brush."
  • "This was an absolute waste of money! The bottle brushes from the dollar store are better than this piece of crap."
  • "I would strongly advise against spending your money on this bottle brush."
  • "The quality of these brushes has gone done over the last 5 years."
  • "This product is trash."
  • "I won’t purchase them again."
