I need a brush that bends 90 degrees in order to clean the inside of my daughter's humidifier. Does anyone know if this will work for that?

The brush will bend 90-degrees when you partially unscrew the coil from the handle. The handle provides the stiffness so the further you extend the coil, the less control you will have on the brush. The bristles are fairly soft so if you only need to reach around a corner to get some dust, it may be satisfactory.

I have should length African American hair that is naturally curly. When working in smaller sections I can reach my scalp. I have not found that the bristles bend easy. I'm sure they may have some amount of flex but nothing like my old plastic brush that tore apart on me. This brush seems very strong. And my hair tangles easy. Hope this helps.

The small stiff brush works great on baseboards. It knocks off the crud. The long brush woukd do blinds if they are closed. The rotating brush was terrific on ceiling fans! FYI, the stiff brush works great on my Golden Retriever.

Yes, it will work just fine for your home. I would recommend putting it in a storage container of some type to help with emptying out humidifier to clean. Also I'd highly advise changing the filter once a month.

For mineral buildup, I use a capful of this (available on Amazon) and it appears to work: Holmes Lime Scale Treatment Solution for Humidifiers, S1705PDQ-U

Yes, I have used mine on my dryer vent that has a 90 degree down for about 2 feet and then a 90 degree turn to go outside. These 90 degree turns are in traditional ducting so they are smooth 90s.

I just happen to have one of those right here. I stuck the brush in to test the fit, and it fits perfectly in the neck (1 3/8"). The inside is larger than the brush, so you just have to run the brush up & down the sides - no big deal. It's a great brush, buy it!

No answer for this but I love this and use it every day. The Fragance is perfect! It is oily and using it in a humidifer might not be good.

I would suggest not. Use a oil burner specifically for that and just use water in humidifier.

I agree with Conservative Robert. On ours, the flexible tube on the bottom had holes in it, so if suction is your only problem that is probably what it is. And the brush gets hair stuck at the ends which bind it.

Handles themselves are 4 inches long and then another 4 inches of brush on the 2 bigger ones. The smallest is really tiny, 3 inch handle and only 1 inch of brush. The next size up #2 is 4 inch handle and only 3 inch of brush. The handle and brush will bend (probably a few times before maybe breaking) but not sure if would work in a 90 degree bend. Doesn't bend on it's own, you would have to put the bend in it, then insert it that way. Hope that helps. Merry Christmas.

My guess is that it should. A humidistat is a humidistat. It is really a switch that closes when your setting for humidity is exceeded in case of AC or to low in case of heat.

The brush is rigid stainless steel - you probably should refer to your manual/manufacturer's instructions for cleaning, etc.

I got it for my Swiss humidifier. Not sure. I descale once per month in the winter months when I use it.

Good question. I just tried the smallest brush on my brown English tea pot. It was too big to fit into the spout.

It is rigid and won't bend. They make a filter that looks like a large toilet scrub brush. That might be your best bet.

It would if you had to but would be a little bit of a hassle. I would buy a thicker type brush that has lots of close together bristles.
