A good dish brush is a kitchen essential. Whether you're tackling the daily dishes or scrubbing baked-on cookware, the right tool helps you clean faster and more comfortably. Dish brushes are designed to lift grime without scratching, offering a more hygienic and effective alternative to cloths alone.
At Howards, the range includes compact dish scrub brushes, long-handled bottle brushes, and soap dispensing styles to suit different washing-up routines. Many come with replaceable heads or ergonomic handles to make cleaning easier on your hands. Store your brush neatly with a sink caddy and keep sponges, scourers and drain brushes close by for a complete setup.
Styles and availability may vary by store and online while stock lasts.
Not all kitchen brushes are created equal. Choosing the right washing up brush depends on your sink layout, dish types and cleaning preferences. Popular features include:
You can also pair your brush with dish drying mats, sink mats, or an under sink organiser to keep extra supplies stored out of sight but within reach.
A neat sink setup makes daily cleaning feel more manageable. Use a sink caddy to store your dish brush, sponge, and liquid soap upright and dry. Add a sink mat to prevent slipping and protect delicate items while washing up.
To keep spare kitchen brushes, refill heads, or cloths organised, a dedicated space under the sink works best. An under-sink organiser helps you group similar items and reduce clutter, especially in busy households.
