The Scotch-Brite Advanced Dishwand utilizes a mechanical trigger system designed to provide precise soap control during dishwashing. This model departs from traditional pressurized membranes by using a mechanical actuator that physically unseats a silicone valve to dispense detergent. This design choice helps mitigate the "soap-ooze" often caused by air expansion in warm kitchen environments, making it a more predictable tool for daily household use.
The chassis is made from high-clarity Polypropylene, allowing the user to easily see when a refill is needed. Specifications show that the handle wall thickness has been reinforced to handle the lateral pressure required for cleaning stuck-on food. The scrubbing surface consists of non-scratch 3M fibers, which are verified as safe for non-stick pots, pans, and glass surfaces. This unit is specifically shaped with a tapered geometry to help reduce hand fatigue during extended cleaning sessions.
- Mechanical trigger provides a "dead-man" seal to help prevent leaks when the wand is not in use.
- Proprietary dovetail joint ensures the sponge head remains securely attached during use.
- Designed to keep hands away from the mess and hot water.
Specifications indicate that the "click" mechanism for replacing sponges requires a firm seating to ensure the head is fully locked. In regions with hard water, users may find it helpful to periodically rinse the trigger assembly to prevent calcium buildup from affecting the moving parts. For optimal flow, tests suggest that extremely viscous soaps may benefit from a 90:10 soap-to-water dilution to prevent valve lag.
If you prefer a brush-style head for scrubbing grates or textured surfaces, the Scotch-Brite Advanced Soap Control Dish Brush uses the same dispensing technology.
