 AWESOME SCRUBBER July 4, 2007

This scrubber is the greatest invention since the wheel! I've cleaned dozens of items around the house (except the dog) with the power scrubber. Cleaning the shower stall took 15 minutes, a job that used to take over an hour with a hand scrubber, bucket, rags etc. I cleaned all my lawn furniture, chairs, chaise lounge , tables and tiled terrace floor in less than 35 minutes, a job that used to take me about 2 hours. I've cleaned my tiled kitchen floor, I've used it dry to clean the screens on my doors. There's no need to press down when using the scrubber, you don't need elbow grease at all, the rotating brush will take care of the dirt and grime. No more bending from the waist cleaning the bottom of your car doors, let the scrubber do that for you. Cleaning pool tiles, a snap.
Would I recommend it......you bet!!!!!

I found this item to be useful for scrubbing our (plastic coated) deck. It has small ridges on the walking surface and the brush gets them clean. BTW, the deck is white.
I was not enamoured about the assembly - the pieces were all separate and both ends had much grease that had to be cleaned before any handling or assembly.You may want to keep the container it was shipped in for the extra wand to be stored in.
I was pleased with the 18 volt rechargeable battery - I used it for an hour or more the first time and it held the charge very well until I was finished. Also, altho the speed of the brush turning is not real fast, that is an advantage because you do not get water, or whatever you use for cleaning solution, splattered all over you whilst using it.
All in all, I am happy with the purchase.
 I like it a lot. July 23, 2007

I bought this product about a month ago,and I am pretty much satisfied with it. It is well made, with sturdy parts, and makes a lot of hard jobs much easier. The interchangable batteries with all the other Black& Decker tools is a big plus. It is really good for scrubbing floors and bathtubs.
Two gripes. The locking lever does not really lock the head, it just makes it stiffer to turn. If you bear down on it, it will turn, and you will have to reposition it. This is not a big problem, just an annoyance.
But what this product really needs is a two foot extension to go with the four foot ones. If you use the unit without any extension on something at ground level (like your floors), you have to stoop to use it, causing back strain. If you put the four foot extension on it, it is easier to use, but the overall length makes it somewhat unwieldly. A two foot estension would make it about perfect.
Overall, I really like this thing, and I am finding more uses for it all of the time. You can wash the outside of your house in about an hour!
One other thing. If you buy this product, you will want to order a couple of the small (four inch) brush heads from B&D. The large ones that come with the unit are great for floors, walls, and cars, but the smaller ones make it much more versatile.
Washing Motor Homes June 8, 2007

This product is great for washing Class A Motor Homes, with the extensions that come with it you can reach the whole Motor Home from the ground. I no longer need to move a ladder to wash the roof line. Using the B&D Cordless Power Scrubber took a 31/2 hour job and reduced it to 11/2 hours and did away with a lot of elbow grease. I was able to complete the job with power to spare on one charge of the battery. I highly recommend this product for people that have large washing projects.
B&D got this one right! August 3, 2007

I just received and tried out this scrubber. Although I will use it to wash the cars and RV, I really got it for our new shower - mosaic floor tile, subway tile and glass block walls, and lots of spary heads. No shortage of surfaces and grout lines! This power scrubber reduced a 1 hour+ scrubbing job into 15 minutes! This is a perfect solution - the hand held power scrubbers are too small for this large shower.
Black and Decker really did their homework on this one. They added an swiveling brush head that you can lock or leave free to rotate - this allows working in close quarters and, the whole thing is water proofed. They also thought enough to add a mesh storage/carry bag - really important to keep the machine, scrub heads and extension poles all together.
A smaller scrub head accessory would be nice for corners but I am sure B&D was not thinking of this primarily as a bath scrubber.
It does seem best to avoid the urge to put pressure on the brush - just let it do the work. It looks like it will be great for windows. I cannot yet say how it works on the cars but, the work it saves on the shower already ranks it as money well spent.
