Try a disposable toilet brush Although you may be a little hesitant to try a disposable brush because of expense, they are usually well worth the cost. No one likes to look at a used brush that just sits around the bathroom in its own filth. The peace of mind you receive from using a brush with a disposable head could be worth the extra cost, as could the removal of a possible health risk.

I recommend:  Try the Scotch-Brite Disposable Toilet Bowl Brush Kit. You can buy it at Office Depot while StorePulls offers refills on that kit, as well as refills on disposable toilet products made by other companies.

Buy industrial toilet brushes for your office If you need a few brushes for toilets at your business, many companies offer industrial toilet brushes. Many industrial brushes have longer, curved handles that can scrub under the lid or along a urinal. They typically have stiffer, longer-lasting bristles. You can use these brushes for the house, too, if you want quality products that last a little longer than most.

I recommend:  Fuller Brush Company features a heavy duty brush, while Aubuchon Hardware offers a brush with an extra long ergonomic handle.

Purchase traditional bathroom toilet brushes with a subtle twist Although there is nothing exciting about the typical brush and holder combination, a few companies have managed to make buying a regular toilet brush more fun and creative. Whether your brush has a more comfortable handle, a wall mount or is simply a different shape, unique gadgets make cleaning a little more enjoyable.

I recommend:  Unger makes a traditional bowl brush with a flexible neck, while simplehuman carries a similar brush with a rubber grip handle. If you want to get more creative, QVC offers a fish tank design brush that fits the theme of many bathrooms, and Perpetual Kid features cartoon character toilet brushes if you want to bring out your inner child.
