There are gardening tasks that can even be fun: planting peppers, sowing the lawn or even gardening. But then there is the work that is just annoying. Cleaning dirty joints, for example. There are practical helpers to make this task a little more bearable. One of them is an electric grout scraper, also known as a grout cleaner or grout brush. What you should consider when buying and which models are worth it.
Anyone who uses “manual” joint scrapers will know that their back will hurt at some point if they don’t use an extension or a handle. When buying an electric joint scraper, everything should be right and it should ideally be height-adjustable so that you can adapt it to your height. Ideally, the brushes can be exchanged so that they can be used for different surfaces. The great thing about these helpers is that they are usually so powerful that there is no need to use pesticides to remove contamination. Further information on the use of an electric joint scraper:
To use: You push the device along the joints so that the fine bristles can penetrate the narrow grooves and loosen dirt. The splash guard ensures that dirt doesn’t fly around uncontrollably.
If you decide to buy an electric joint scraper, the following models are often recommended.
The Gloria electric joint brush quickly and efficiently removes annoying weeds, moss and dirt between paving or patio stones. This model also fits soft nylon joint brushes, which are particularly suitable for scratch-sensitive surfaces, as well as the included brass-coated steel wire brush for stubborn dirt. This makes it suitable for many surfaces. An additional, height-adjustable second handle on the device ensures that work is back-friendly. With a speed of 1,800 rpm and an output of 300 W, the WeedBrush is particularly fast and thorough.
