Dextrous Bottle Brushes

The Scrub-a-Dub Gets into Every Crease and Cranny for a Thorough Clean

— May 29, 2012 — Art & Design
Dishes are enough of a fuss to do without the added load of baby bottles. Recognizing the troublesome task of keeping these clean, Jeff Tung came up with the concept of the Scrub-a-Dub.

Here is an object that has been designed based on some of the features of common bottle brushes, but it has more to offer. Not just a stick with bristles, it incorporates two sets of sponges on the top and in the middle, as well as a small retractable scrubber. The former can compress to fit even narrow flasks and the latter helps to get in and wash the rubber nips -- often proving to be a difficult undertaking for less flexible materials. The Scrub-a-Dub also has a knob-like handle to facilitate different grips based on the angle required.
