ScrubTastic Reviews
Using three interchangeable heads and an extension handle, the ScrubTastic spinning brush claims to deliver easy cleaning power without bending over.
About ScrubTastic
When you realize it’s time to clean the grout, tile, and shower door, does it send chills up your spine? Does the hair stand up on the back of your neck?
Well, according to the maker of ScrubTastic, a cordless, rechargeable brush that spins over 300 RPM, its high torque scrubbing power will do “all the hard work for you.”
We’re told you’ll be able to quickly blast through soap scum, hard water, and lime, while the extension handle helps you reach high—and low—without hard scrubbing, bending, or kneeling.
Look, nearly everyone loathes the thought of cleaning the shower and bath, but up until now, we just had to suck it up and get it done. Has ScrubTastic changed the situation, though?
In other words, is it the “rechargeable spinning sensation” claimed by the manufacturer, or is it an overhyped piece of plastic? Will it help you “restore bathroom fixtures to like-new in just minutes,” or will it break within a week?
We did the research to help you find answers to these important questions.
How Well Can You Expect ScrubTastic to Work?
Imagine you have a car that’s capable of going 300 MPH. Pretty fast, right?
The only problem is that it’s low on torque; i.e. a twisting force that causes rotation. So low, in fact, that even once it reaches 300 MPH, just a slight breeze could seriously impact its performance. This certainly wouldn’t be a very effective car!
As you can see in this admittedly simplistic example is that, while overall speed is important, being able to 1) quickly reach this speed and 2) maintain it for an indefinite period of time is equally as important. And to do this, you need torque.
What’s the point? Even if ScrubTastic does spin at 300 RPM, if its motor doesn’t feature enough torque—meaning that it takes very little friction to slow it down (such as lightly pressing against tile or a shower door), it ultimately won’t provide much value.
And while the manufacturer claims ScrubTastic comes with a high-torque motor, they don’t provide any further details and it seems like the spinning head meaningfully slowed down in the commercial when pressed against hard surfaces.
How Much Does ScrubTastic Cost?
One ScrubTastic spinning brush will cost you $39.99 with free S&H plus any applicable tax.
Each set comes with 1 ScrubTastic Cleaner, 1 powered extension wand, 1 round head, 1 flat head, and 1 angled head.
All ScrubTastic purchases come with a 60-day refund policy, less S&H. In order to request one, you’ll need to contact customer service at 855-721-3340.
Is It Worth Taking a Risk on ScrubTastic?
At HighYa, we say it often when investigating products, but only because it always rings true: we’re not here to tell you how to spend your money. After all, you earned it.
However, we are here to help you make more informed purchases, which we do by compiling publically available information, along with our personal experience reviewing hundreds of products and writing dozens of in-depth guides.
Given this, do we think you should you buy ScrubTastic? We have no reason to believe it won’t help you clean tile, grout, and shower doors. But will it actually make it easier? Will its motor provide solid cleaning power? Will it last?
We’ll just have to wait until customer feedback starts rolling in to learn more.
In the meantime, keep in mind that if you order the BOGO ScrubTastic offer and decide to process a return, you’ll immediately lose $10, plus whatever it’ll cost to ship the devices back to the manufacturer.

ScrubTastic charge is not lasting
Overall Experience:I am trying to call customer service for the past 2 days and been on hold for 1 hour with no answer. I need to see if this product can be replaced. I bought it a couple of weeks ago and do not have the receipt and the product is not working. The charge does not last, only 10 minutes.
Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Never received product
Overall Experience:I ordered this scrubber from a commercial on TV. They have my money but it's been over 2 months and when I check status it says "Out of Stock." Can't find a number to contact to cancel order. Very frustrating. Not sure if this is legit or a scam.
Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Turn-off switch is defective - won't turn off
Overall Experience:I found the ScrubTastic to be very effective in cleaning my walk-in-shower and it removed soap scum and ground-in dirt.
The problem is that the second time I used it, when I tried to turn it off, it refused to turn off. I flicked the switch several times and it would not turn off. I had to disconnect the three pieces in order to box it up and return it to Walmart.
Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

It is NOT a scam
Overall Experience:I love it. It surely is worth the costs, and it does what it says.
Some personal comments - it could use more torque, the seals could be more waterproof, I would prefer an even longer wand, and I only need the one hemispherical brush.
They stand by their guarantee.
I would buy it again, and I recommend it.
Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

A huge help!
Overall Experience:I am less than three months post op from a major neck surgery and still don’t have my scrubbing power back, so I was looking for something to help me clean my shower without hurting myself. I purchased the ScrubTastic from Amazon for $39.95 and received it in two days (Prime member). I was not only anxious to try it out but more importantly, clean my shower without the help of a family member or friend.
After opening and charging the unit I put it to the test. I used my own natural bathroom cleaner by Attitude (Attitudeliving.com, fabulous products!). I was extremely happy with the results. Not only was it easy to use, it really did a great job cleaning the entire shower with very little energy and no pain for me, which was biggest concern.
I would definitely recommend this product based on my first experience with it. I just hope it holds up because it’s really great!
Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

ScrubTastic worked great for me!
Overall Experience:I bought my ScrubTastic from Hammacher-Schlemmer because of the lifetime guarantee. I was skeptical, but loved the idea of being able to clean the shower ceiling, walls and floor more easily.
I just finished the job, so I've only used it one time, but I was impressed, and my shower is clean without a stool for the ceiling or getting on my knees for the floor.
Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Lousy
Overall Experience:The turn-off switch does not work on either of the three that I bought. I bought three, one for me and one each for each of my daughters. The turn-off switch does not work on any of them. A switch of this type is very simple. My goodness, at least one of them should work properly.
Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Where is my product?
Overall Experience:Well, I can't judge the product because I have been waiting for it for over a month. Their customer service is useless. I called, and they told that they are waiting for their shipment from Las Vegas, but this already came off of my credit card! Like, where do we go from here?
Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Shipping
Overall Experience:It is very hard to write a review on this product when you can't get them to ship it to you. I placed my order on 11/7/16, today is 1/2/17 and still no product. Sure, hope this is a legit company and not a scam. Very disappointed so far!
Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

I have not received
Overall Experience:I ordered the ScrubTastic 11/4/2016 and have yet to receive the order, although my credit card has already charged. I wanted to receive by Christmas and it's already 12/18/16 and I still have not received it. Time is running out.
I talked with their customer service two weeks ago and was told it would ship that week. I'm not very happy that it is taking so long.
Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend
