| I’ve tried Scrubbing Bubbles products in the past and, quite frankly, wasn’t all that impressed. I hate mold and like the idea of automatic, though, so I was willing to give it a try. The other product I tried I sprayed into the shower myself and it was a little noxious. This doesn’t clean like a bunch of housekeepers scrubbing your shower every day – but who really thought it would? It does, however, keep the mold and mildew at bay between scrubbings, and the stubborn soap scum actually does gradually start to go away. As a plus it smells fresh and clean. Then it broke. I thought the battery contacts needed cleaning since the batteries I took out were sticky from the cleaning solution, but no. Even cleaned up with new batteries the thing still gives me the 15-beep warning but the motor never starts, so I think its toast. That’s $25.00 for the unit and about one refill per month (first two are included in the starter kit) at ~ $5.00. That’s maybe $45.00 for 6 months of cleaning the shower. In the interest of science I’ll try another one on the chance I got a lemon, so look for updates here...UPDATE 2/18/2007. New purchase and two battery changes later and it's still going strong. | ![]() |
