The updated OXO Good Grips Soap Dispensing Brush features a redesigned threaded cap with a gasketed seal, intended to provide a more secure closure than previous friction-fit models. The reservoir is constructed from a clear copolyester that is resistant to clouding, ensuring the user can always see the soap level. The handle utilizes a Santoprene overmold, a material chosen for its ability to resist becoming "tacky" when exposed to kitchen oils, providing a reliable grip for daily use.
The brush head uses Polybutylene Terephthalate bristles, which are specified for their low moisture absorption. This allows the bristles to maintain their stiffness and effective scrubbing power even when submerged for long periods. The internal dispensing mechanism relies on a silicone diaphragm that provides a spring-return feel, allowing for precise control over the amount of detergent used on each dish.
The modular screw-on head system allows the user to switch between brush, sponge, or scrub refills, helping to extend the lifecycle of the handle.
Specifications indicate that the grip is designed to help distribute the load during high-torque scrubbing, which can help find a more comfortable hand position. To keep the valve functioning optimally, users may find it helpful to slightly dilute very thick soaps with water. Because the silicone O-ring in the cap is a separate component, care should be taken during cleaning to ensure it is not misplaced, as it is essential for maintaining the unit's airtight seal.
If you find that you need replacement heads for this specific model, the OXO New Refill 2-Pack is designed specifically for this updated chassis.
