yes I saw that camera trick on TV. and at first I thought? there yeah go a as Sean on TV. rip off!!! but watching your video I'd have to change my mind? the camera trick was just to help them out to sell there product since they only have a short time to film it! but it all boils down to elbow grease and how strong you are!!! thanks for your video!!!
Thank you for helping me make a decision on what type of scrubber to buy. I watched all your reviews: the Clorox scrubtastic, the Hurricane spin scrubber and the Turbo Scrub. I brought the Turbo Scrub. Thanks
Does the Turbo Scrub throw water and cleaner all over con't tell from the review.
wow! Looking back on these old vids, James You've really come a LONG way in your style of video, your methods, your presentation and heck, even your overall physical fitness/appearance. Awesome I tells ya, AWESOME!!!
Thanks for sharing your review. I just ordered the scrubber and am glad it works.
I can honestly say that I am impressed with the fact that you clearly put time into testing and researching this product! I have a pain condition that makes any kind fo scrubbing motion very painful (showers, my teeth, etc...) its why i broke down and got an electrib toothbrush actually (i started actually resenting brushing my teeth because of the increased pain). This seems like it could be the bathroom cleaning equivalent? Are there any other similar products other than the hurricane one that you recommend i consider before purchse? I am really hoping to be able to do teh shower floor quickly on a regular basis (for many reasons it gets slippery really fast-it is textured fiberglass, but it is no match for the leftover conditioner that doesnt wash away...I really cant afford a fall-that woudl be the last thing i need. anyway-I imagine it would work well for such a purpose? just trying to get that slippery residue off...
Thanks for the reviews between both scrubbers, now I know which one to get.
I’m a long time subscriber. Thank you for the honest reviews.
Thank you for taking the time to do this video. I have been thinking about buying one of these for awhile but didn't know if I was wasting my money. I'm gonna buy one now :)

Thanks for the comment. Let me know what you think of it. By the way, I've started to see a Turbo Scrub PRO appear in stores, which I haven't seen first-hand (yet), but it could be worth checking out. I think it's around $50.

Freakin' Reviews living in Australia we seem to be years behind getting these products.. but I will keep my eye out for it 👍🏻😀
I love the extension pole as I can't bend too much. My back doesn't give me gyp as much whilst using it
thanks mom has been wanting one of these. would like to hear your thoughts on which might have the edge before getting her one.
I love the scene with the sunglasses and the bright lights reflecting off them.
I am actually looking at purchasing one of the products Hurricaine or Turbo due to lower back nerve issues and the inability to easily clean. I have seen the comparison and all of the other videos on the products so it has given me a lot to think about before making the final purchase. I do appreciate all of your information, thank you so SO much!
James, After watching all three of your reviews and your two follow up reviews multiple time, I think I'm finally ready to go out and purchase the Turbo Scrub for myself :) Thank you for putting in the time, money, and effort into making those reviews which help people like me make informed decisions. I've read and seen other reviews and I feel that most people who give the product a negative review simply had unreasonable expectations for the cleaning power of the product (we can probably blame the infomercials for that) lol. By the way, you should use the cleaner Bar Keepers Friend. It blows Comet out of the water! I use it to clean the build up on the inside of my tub (those dark stains that we can never seem to get rid of) and it came out like brand new! I'm not even exaggerating. You can find it at Target in powdered form for $1.99 and in liquid form for $2.59. I've tried both. I feel the powdered form is a little stronger but the liquid form is more convenient. Both are highly effective, just follow the directions on the container. Thanks again!

Hi there, and I do know of Bar Keepers Friend but admittedly have not used it. I will pick it up on your suggestion. Thank you for the comment!
Thank you for the review of this product. You were clear, concise, and to the point. I made the purchase after viewing your video.
I bought a Turbo Scrub 360 from Amazon this week and I absolutely love it to clean my white tile kitchen floor! It took several layers of decades of grime off the grout so it looks so much better with very little effort. Thank you for doing these honest reviews- I would not have bought it otherwise. WARNING: Taking the heads off requires some effort but they do come off counterclockwise with strong pulls.

I used Clorox Toilet Bowl Cleaner w/ Bleach as the cleaning agent and let it sit ten minutes on the grout before cleaning.
In the UK you can get two sets of head attachments - one for kitchen use and the other for bathrooms, etc.
Thanks for a great review! Very clear and good demonstrations which have helped me decide to get this product and give it a go, good point about using the brushes for jobs like cleaning toilet and kitchen utensils I may go for a spare brush set to make sure there is no cross contamination maybe?
So the Hurricane spin scrubber takes 8 hrs to charge per maybe 1 hr average to use right? In the comparison video, the Turbo Scrubber lasted a straight 1 hr- 22 min. How long does the Turbo scrubber take to charge in between uses?
Absolutely loving my turbo scrub, I have 3 bathrooms so it's fantastic!!! I made up my mind to buy it after your reviews so thanks...I bought one for my elderly mother and I'm giving it to her today, she's quite excited about it.

How to buy this product?? Not available in Amazon and flipcart
I usually make my own cleaning products and don't use commercially sold ones like Comet. But have been wondering about this product. Thank you.
Is it that good that the brightness blinds you or are the sunglasses a fashion statement? The floor by the way around the 6 minute mark looked like it had a massive stain left on it.
Would you consider testing the Hoover Floor Mate? I noticed you have tile and grout and thought you might be interested as well. I believe that's the one that has the spinning brushes and then vacuums up the water.
My question is, the big round one feels softer bristles than the others, is that ok to use on a car paint work or not.
Thanks for posting the video. I bought mine at $ 59.99 plus tax I live in Canada from a As Seen On TV Store. Wish I had gotten the warranty on it. After trying it on a few places in my small place I live in a bachelor. The part that disconnects so I could make it longer came off and one clip totally broke off. Ive tried all the brushes including Cone Brush Head which I sprayed the area that I wanted to clean let the brush do its job. But the brush now has its brisles all over the place. I'd highly recommend this product.
Can you use turbo scrub on acrylic without scratching the surface?

Oddly, there's a website for parts and accessories listed on the instructions (turboscrubparts.com) but as I write this comment, that website is still not online. The Hurricane Spin Scrubber offers a set of replacement brushes for (if I recall correctly) about $20 so I would imagine the pricing will be the same for Turbo Scrub.
Thank you for all your reviews. Before I buy something I come on here to see if you’ve done a review on it. Thanks for the honest opinion.
I just put mine together. Wondering how difficult it is to clean hair out of it? That might matter where I’ll use it.?! Thanks again
I noticed you use Comet. There is a better product Bar Keepers Friend. You can get one kind at the grocery stores but I have found at Bed Bath and Beyond a stainless steel Bar Keepers Friend I like even more. But BB&B is the only place I have fount it. Love your reviews. Just found you today and you seem to review all the things I have wondered about. :0)
Thanks for uploading this videos really helpful!!
I just found 2 turbo scrubs in the closet unopened that I ordered 4 or 5 years ago. Just wanted to see your review and how you used it to clean stuff. Thanks man. Now off to clean that nasty tub:)
Hi James, we just got a new house with a cultured marble shower. Can I use this turbo scrub 360 to clean it? Will it scratch the shower walls? Thanks in advance
oi cara eu moro no brasil e aqui a voutagem e 110v e como que faco para compra eu vi no gearbest e nao achei na voutagem 110
So does it destroy the enameling on tiles, bathroom sink or the toilet? Or does it scratch metallic surfaces?
I can’t release the scrubber at the end of the wand. Also, how do I clean it?
Is there a review for the Turbo Scrub PRO series?
We can't change the head? What's the secret to interchanging brushes as there's a hook on the interior but no apperent exterior button release?

Do u ever have to replace battery bif so can u show me how. Mine stopped charging
You know what?? thank you .. i was about to give up in this brush. i just got it yesterday ..and i was too excited to used it . then at first . i was too disappointed cos it seems like changed nothing .. until i came here . and just rest abit ..then i found this video of you . . thenn boooommm!!! i dnk why but you give me courage and try it again .. then now happy cos im its seems like good stuff😁 so far its works like what i expected😁😁😁 thank you
You mention not using the head on say sinks after doing say toilets which is fair comment. So have you discovered the fastest and more efficient way to clean the heads ? E.g. dishwasher or say in a bowl in the microwave?

Hi I liked most of your demo. But I really wanted to see how you change the brush head. I broke my magic mop because I didn't know how to change the mop head, and didn't look on line. I was trying to make sure I won't break my turbo scrub when I go to change the brush head.

I watched all your reviews including the side by side comparison and from what I can see, IMO, the Hurricane did a better job. In your opinion is the battery issue that much of a deal breaker? I would like to get this to do the bathtub as I have a bad back. Thank you!
@Freakinreviews
7 жыл бұрын
No, I definitely don't think it's a deal-breaker. I thought both scrubbers did a pretty good job and seemed almost identical in most aspects. My concern is more about the overall (long-term) battery life of NiCad vs NiMh, which remains to be seen since these products are both so new.
wouldn't you still have to mop after you use the brush to rinse the soap
I saw the infomercial on this the other day on tv. I'm gonna buy it. I will film an unboxing on my channel when I get it.

There is a huge deficit in this review. The reason I would use it is that at 5'1" I cannot REACH to clean the top half of my shower closet. If the turbo scrub needs the surface to be wiped down afterwards, I cannot reach to do that. At present I have to put an old towel on the floor, strip off and stand in the closet with the door shut. Spray cleaner as far as I can reach ( The shower has a suspended plastic base, no room for nor strong enough for a step), get out of the closet and freeze for 5 mins. Get back in, use a cloth to finish of the cleaning whilst coughing on the chemicals then use the shower to rinse the walls followed by a shower for myself. Until this is finished I am standing in the chemicals that I have used to clean the shower! I was hoping from the adverts that a) no chemicals needed and b) it didn't need wiping down. Ho hum
I just bought one of these thanks to your review. I did notice something odd tho. My box says Turbo Scrub 360, and my instruction manual says Turbo Scrub Pro. So it makes me wonder which I got. Lol
I love my turbo Scrub. I have tiles I couldn't get clean through scrubbing bleaching etc. I buy Turbo Scrub, & voila, they come up like brand new again. Brilliant brilliant product

Thanks for the review. I was leaning towards turbo price comparison but I still wanted what would do a better job not looking at the price. Well they both looks to do a great job but must go with the battery being used in turbo so I will be making sure my order includes the updated battery turbo are using. Great review

How is that buy One get one free? So it pissed me off? Please tell which one to buy! I do like the idea of the better battery in this one? Please help?
Is it true that it is water proof?

They don't seem to sell a replacement battery (yet). The instructions state to remove and recycle the battery when it can no longer be charged, but there's no mention on how to replace it. Depending on how much pressure you put on the brushes while scrubbing, it should last about an hour.

Mine is on the way. It didn't do much to clean your bathroom floor grout, but instead of using Comet, use what I consider to be a miracle product.....Zep Mold Stain and Mildew Stain Remover. I tried everything short or using sandpaper to remove hard water stains in my toilet. A few sprays of this stuff, NO SCRUBBING, and bam.....stains gone!!!!

Eeew, I watched the part where you suggest people clean their brushes after nasty job (ie. tires, toilet etc.). Just use a different brush for those jobs. I don't care how hard you scrub those brushes, it's not sanitary to use a toilet brush on your kitchen sink where you wash the dishes you eat on. I think it's easier and more hygenic to invest in a second brush. Otherwise, this is a very good and genuine video review. Good job!
