Charles BentleyBentley Industrial Brush Countryman Stiff Bassine Hand Scrub, 8"", Natural, DT.07-B

My new flat has carpeted bedrooms, which I find unhygienic and impractical but hey, when has a rental flat ever been perfect? Before I put any furniture in, I used this brush and a homemade cleaner with antibacterial oil and vinegar to clean the carpet up, hopefully get rid of any bacteria, and freshen it. The brush picked up all sorts of lint and dirt that the vacuum would not. The brush itself is sturdy and easy to clean. I since vacuum the carpet about once a week and brush it about once a month. Of course it takes quite some time and effort to clean carpets this way, but I knew what I was getting myself into when I bought it.Warning: the bristles are really hard and this brush is made for heavy duty - be careful what you use it on. My carpet is 100% synthetic and the usual uninviting magnolia-type colour so nothing will happen to it, but it might damage a proper wool or silk carpet or any type of delicate/multicoloured fabric/surface. The bristles also have 2 different lengths which for me is great but is not shown in the picture. Finally, even though the brush itself is friendly to the environment, it arrived wrapped in plastic, which I'm sure could have been avoided as it's not fragile or sensitive or needs to be preserved in any way.

Everyone has had scrubbing brushes, this is just that little bit better. It won't change your life but the bristles last and don't fall out everywhere. The only downside is also a plus it's very tough so wouldn't be useful for anything delicate.

Great - old school stiff scrubbing Brush with no gimmicks, that will not let you down, I use it for cleaning Clients tiled floors

I love this scrubber , Easy to hold . Great for scrubbing my steps I would not like to be with out this scrubber . Its the best i have ever bought over the years.

Relieved at last to be able to buy an old-fashioned solid item like this. Not only is it just right for scrubbing floors but it's also excellent for getting dog pairs up off my carpets.
