Ryobi's Telescopic Tool Will Have Hard-To-Reach Areas Cleaner Than Ever

If you're going down your deep cleaning checklist, then chances are you're scrubbing every square inch of a room. However, sometimes that's easier said than done. Some areas may be harder to reach, requiring you to borrow a ladder or contort yourself into odd positions to get that one last grimy spot. Because of the effort involved, most of the time, hard-to-reach areas get ignored, allowing them to further accumulate dust and dirt. If you have a similar spot inside or outside your home, you can finally get to it with the help of Ryobi's telescopic tool.

The 18V ONE+ Soap Dispensing Scrubber is likened to a battery-operated sponge attached to a long stick, making deep cleaning much more manageable. The wand can extend up to 51 inches, which equates to 4.25 feet, allowing you to get grime on the ceiling above or weird nooks you can't reach, often behind furniture or storage systems. It also helps save your back since you don't need to crouch down or hunch over to scrub something. Instead, you can do it standing up. Here is a closer look at the ingenious tool that will feel like the ultimate cleaning hack.

Details of the 18V ONE+ Soap Dispensing Scrubber

The 18V ONE+ Soap Dispensing Scrubber is motorized, so you don't have to suffer with a sore arm after a long day of chores and scrubbing. The motor will do all the brushing for you. Since it runs on batteries, this cordless tool allows you to move freely around the house, garage, or outdoors without being restricted to an outlet. To use it, simply pour Ryobi Soap Solution into the soap dispenser, turn it on, spray the grimy area with the soap, and begin scrubbing. The medium bristle brush it comes with is just stiff enough to properly scour hard surfaces like tiles, concrete, fiberglass, and siding. However, if you need something gentler, the tool's Triangle Connector is interchangeable with various brush options (brushes sold separately).

When purchasing the Ryobi telescoping tool, you get the bristle brush and an 8-ounce soap solution bottle. However, the battery and charger are sold separately, so if you don't want to use your muscle power to scrub, you'll need to shell out for that. You can purchase the tool alone for $169 or opt for the scrubber-battery bundle for $199 (Ryobi Tools). It also received 4.5 stars from over 150 reviews, 117 of which were 5-star, making it a top-rated Ryobi tool – confirming it's a worthwhile investment when making cleaning a bit easier.

Other ways to use this tool

If you're wondering where to use the medium bristle brush the tool comes with, it's perfect for areas that don't get scratched easily but need some muscle power to get clean. Examples are outdoor decking, patio grout, shower grout, siding, plastic playsets, and metal outdoor furniture. However, if you want more bang for your buck, invest in a few extra brush heads to use this tool for more cleaning options around the house and yard.

For instance, the Soft Bristle Round Brush, which costs $16 on Ryobi Tools, is perfect for cleaning plastic, glass, and laminate. If you have laminate or vinyl floors that have seen better days and a simple mop is no longer getting the job done, this automated brush will help scrub out the dirt stuck in the floor's seams and textured grooves. Similarly, if it's time to wash your outdoor windows, this rotating head will make quick work out of the task. However, if you get something like the Lambswool Head, $20, you can use it to wax your car, floors, furniture, or buff marble floors or headlights. Get a few scrubbers in your arsenal to really make this tool multi-purpose.
