Are the bristles stiff or soft? Looking for something to do deep cleaning on grout and textured tile

The bristles are stiff and do an excellent job on bathroom floor tiles and grout.

The bristles are stiff. Does good job on grout but you need to use pressure. I like this but I wish the swivel head was not so loose because it's sometimes hard to control.

I use it to scrub a shower floor. I think it works well. The bristles are stiff, but not so much that they do not bend a bit.

Bristles are just right -- not soft and not rock hard. This should work well for you.

I wouldn't.. it's much stiffer than you think it is... and the plastic bristles I believe would scratch.. I used it to clean grout, and it scratched the tile.

I have never seen the brush in a store. I only discovered it on a construction site, when I asked to feel it I found the bristles very stiff. This bristles will not flatten under pressure like some typical store varieties. I bought several here, very pleased.

This brush isn't super soft, the bristles are pure boar hair which are pretty stiff and give you a rough but solid brush.

I had to actually look up what a one-hitter was, but if the deposit inside needs any amount of scrubbing, I would say there are not the brushes for you. They are pretty soft. I found a much stiffer tube brush at B,B&B.;

It all depends on what you are looking for in a dry brush. I find it to be just fine for me, I like soft bristles because I have sensitive skin and cannot take the harsher bristles. It is great in the shower and offers me the skin sloughing I was looking for.

Bristles are firm and clean well, but if your skin is very delicate you might have to find a softer brush. (I tried a Mary Kay brush on the back of my hand and it felt softer than this brush, but at the same time I questioned if due to the softness it would do a good job cleaning my pores) Overall I think this was a good find for my skin type.

The brush is fairly stiff, like any standard scrub brush you find in the store. I've used it on laminate doors as well as my tub and it works fine. I just use it on a lower speed when I use it on weaker materials. The bit is standard and should fit nearly any drill.

In my home all I have is hard surfaces for my floors because I have at this time 2 dogs and 2 long hair cats. When I moved in here I took out all carpets - this is a desert location and well difficult to keep floors clean all that to say, I have wood, tile and laminate flooring throughout my home. I needed a vacuum that would do a major clean up on cat hair and cat litter plus all the miscellaneous 'stuff' that comes in from the gardens on all the paws. I needed a vacuum that could be used with and without the brush because the tile needs the brushing element to get litter out of the grout between the individual tiles...this vacuum does it ALL my tiles and my wood/laminate without brushes that can destroy the wood/laminate finishes. I keep the recharger and vacuum in my office also where the litter boxes reside and any mess is quickly cared for with so little effort. Since my cats are a breed known as Ragdolls and quite large in size I do have cat hair to content with along with litter....not a problem for this vacuum. You just pop off the canister on the front and I do this at my outside garbage area and shake out the canister - the filter comes out easily and I clean it with a very soft tooth brush...takes so little time and I've my vacuum back on its stand recharging in readiness for the next use. I have talked on at length, however in my defense I am 80 years old and when I feel I have something worth talking about, I do. Hope this answers your question.

Didn't buy it for that and haven't tried it on grout. I clean my grout with water, oxy clean and dawn dish soap with a stiff brush..

Are the bristle very soft or more stiff? The soft bristle do not penetrate my hair well and makes it fuzzy and frustrating. thank you.

Yes the cleaning pads are mildly spongy enough to contour into grout lines, it also comes with an attachable brush that would probably work on real tough, embedded stains, although I have not used it yet.

Bristles relatively stiff. I think that they are natural -- I.e., boar's hair.

I just used it on some very dirty floor grout. The grout is much cleaner, but it is tedious cleaning the grout lines and the steamer is pretty heavy and 'clunky', but it did the job.

I have ceramic tile in my kitchen & bathrooms & it seems to be cleaning the grout just fine. If you have something heavy just hit the trigger that gives you a big blast of steam. The more you hit the trigger the more water you use but it gets heavy grime up good especially on hard wood.

When it was brand new the bristles were a bit hard but as I have used it they have softened considerably. Hope this helps :)

I measured the bristles. They are about an inch long. They are rather stiff. Go gently the first couple of times using the brush until you get used to it.
