Hurricane Scrubber

Hurricane Spin Scrubber is a power scrubber that spins away soap scum effortlessly. It just has to be rinsed clean after. This cordless tool takes roughly 30 seconds to clean a standard shower and just seconds to spin scrub handles and faucets clean. The Hurricane Spin Scrubber has an extension piece and multiple brush heads. This allow consumers to clean out rings in a shower or bathtub without having to get in the tub or shower and run the risk of getting wet.

Positive Points
- Soaks up Liquid
This device soaks up liquid very well, so it does help to mitigate an overflow of mess while cleaning. It can work as advertised so long as it does not break or leak. Many satisfied customers have stated that it took two or three rounds of returns before they received one which didn’t do the aforementioned. At this point, the brush functioned just fine.
Negative Points
- Bad Customer Service
The parent company for the scrubber is Telebrands. This manufacturer has received negative customer service reviews for nearly all products including this one. That said, there are competitive alternatives which have better customer service.
- Flimsy Handle
The spinner handle is flimsy and will break if consumers put too much pressure on it. So using it to clean a hard to reach or difficult stain naturally requires more pressure on a normal cleaning too, but not this one. When consumers apply more pressure, it breaks. On that note, the handle is short, so without the extension, the Hurricane Spinner is not very comfortable to use.
- Poor Durability
One of the biggest problems is the durability. There is a foot lever which operates the spinner, so while it is cordless, it is not as simple to operate as it seems. Online there is a wide report of leaks where the foot lever attaches to the bucket. Additionally, the idea that people who suffer from arthritis will benefit from the extension is not entirely true. Any area that is cleaned, like all competing spinner brushes, will need to be rinsed after. That said, cleaning something like a shower or sink is easily rinsed by taking the brush and cleaning something like the bottom of a toilet is less easily rinsed after.
How It Works
The Hurricane Spin Scrubber rotates 300 times per minute, so it removes things like rust or hardened water instantly. There are no harmful chemicals used, instead tackling hard stains with power. It boasts flexible bristles to reach into cracks and crevices. There is a pop on extension pole for free which doubles the reach.
Alternatives
- Buying Online
The official website is not the only place to buy, and alternative sources are less expensive. On the official website it charges just shy of forty dollars plus an additional thirteen for shipping. This only gives you one cleaning head ( not all of the ones they offer ), one bucket, and a lint removing brush. There are other websites like Amazon which provide this same product for much cheaper with free shipping.
Complaints
- Doesn't Reduce Cleaning Time
It can be used indoors or outdoors which means it can clean virtually any hard to reach surface from a safe and dry distance. The company claims that it reduces cleaning time, but it doesn’t necessarily. If used as advertised, this particular product will certainly do better than a traditional mop but its spinning mop head is quite small. This small size means that cleaning a large area, such as a large shower or bathtub, is quite time consuming. The water collected in the cleaning head has be released periodically which can increase cleaning time too.
Wise Advice
Do not buy Hurricane Scrubber online before searching Amazon.- Alternatives or the same items are always available and sometimes at lower prices.

Virtually no Torque Whatsoever!
Even the slightest amount of pressure causes spinning action to bog down. This gadget has virtually no torque whatsoever! The TV ads are about the most misleading ads that I have ever seen. Both of my units "perform" the same-just terrible! I left them on charge for days, thinking that might be the problem. Nothing doing. I am actually going to throw them both in the trash.
Save your money.

Battery Problem
I received my Hurricane Spin Scrubber about one week ago. I followed the direction about charging it for 20 hours. It worked for about 3 or 4 minutes then stopped. As directed I tried to recharge it again. Now it still does not work. Need help please. Norma Doucette.

Warranty Sucks!
Bought item in December; used maybe once a month, now 5 months later, quit. Only 30 day warranty. I'll never buy anything from TeleBrabds again.

Works for Me
So far I love this product, I used it on my tile floors, for the grout area, did awesome, one has to get the feel of working with it, when you do it works great, I saved $ on a cleaning machine, that I do not need now, can't wait to try it in the bathroom, and on my stove!

Don't Buy
It takes me 3 times longer to clean then my old way[by my own hands] and try to return--forget that
U don't get shipping charge refund and if they[company] does like the look at return they won't give you any refund used it to clean some tile grout and did a little good but could have done better with a toothbrush also gets tiresome from holding it while it cleans hard on joint and muscles of us older people.

BUYER BEWARE
Used it one time and now it won't take a charge even though it's been on charger for 24 hrs. $49 for one time use. Pretty expensive. Feel like I just threw my money down the toilet.

Not worth the Money
After charging the unit for 24 hours as recommended, the first time I used it it lasted less than 2 minutes before it stopped working. After charging it again it lasted awhile. However as soon as you apply the slightest pressure it bogs down and doesn't scrub. I mean the slightest pressure which is a normal way to clean. I used it on my shower terrible did nothing. Using a dobie pad worked better. I tried it on my tile floor. Again did nothing. This product is nothing like the advertising would like you to believe. Waste of good hard earned money! I wish I could return it and get my money back!

I purchased my hurricane spin scrubber at target. Paid $39.99 + tax. It was already working when I got it home, then I charged it after using it the first time and it still works great. I am so pleased with this product!

Does hurricane spin scrubber charger turn green when battery is charged?
- Write Your Reply

Thank you - they don't say this anywhere and its exactly what I needed to know!
I bought one of these and it lasted less than one minute on our shower grout. Bed, Bath and Beyond has a total refund policy so I got my money back and am looking for a better product.

I ordered this on 11 / 10. I had to call to find out where it is. I was told by a lady I could barely understand that they are on back order. It could be 6 weeks before they get them in, then 2 weeks for delivery. It could be 3 months before I get it, and that is Maybe. They couldn't even notify me it was in back order, I had to call. This was a christmas gift, I may just cancel it, they took my money and ran.

I had the same problem when I ordered mine. When I was told it was on back order I immediately informed agent to cancel my order and refund my money. They did exactly that. Be firm.
I need to find out when I will receive my products. I need a phone number to call customer service. I'm beginning to wonder about this deal!

Also, both scrubbers come with ALL heads.
