Best bottle brush

By mudlark • August 28th, 2008

Well, when you have 3 kids below school age, washing bottles and sippy cups becomes a major part of day-to-day life. Questions like how clean the brush stays, where to store it, width of bristles ergonomic design – there’s no end to the frustrations of finding a good bottle brush. And with kid #1 we must have gone through 8-9 different brushes. And then – Eureka! – we stumbled onto the Deluxe Munchkin bottle and nipple brush (and no, they’re not paying me a cent to say any of this). It has lasted through 3 babies.

It works great for most of our bottles. The only exception is the long narrow-necked bottles (like Mr. Brown’s, which we don’t use anymore since they’re BPA-laden). The handle is long enough to reach down into standard, wide mouthed 9-oz bottles and 9-oz sippy cups. The nipple brush twists out of the handle and the bristles are sturdy enough to scrub with, but flexible to fit in tight spaces like the valve-holder in sippy cups. When you put the nipple brush back into the handle, there’s a nice suction cup at the bottom so that you can stand the brush up on the countertop or sink (for proper draining and air-drying – cutting down on bacteria and fungal growth).

i actually own one for non-baby purposes.

i have several long-skinny cups and glasses that i can’t fit my hands into, so this thing works great.
