The SCRUBBALL Magnetic Scrubber on Kickstarter is revolutionizing kitchen cleaning with an innovative 6-in-1 multifunctional design that makes scrubbing burnt pans easier, more hygienic, and actually fun. This ingenious magnetic scrubber eliminates the disgusting mess of traditional steel wool while protecting your hands and nails. With worldwide free shipping on orders of four or more packs and a buy-two-get-one-free offer, SCRUBBALL represents a practical, eco-friendly solution to one of the kitchen's most unpleasant tasks.

The Problem with Traditional Steel Wool

We all know steel wool is effective for cleaning burnt pans, but it comes with serious drawbacks. Traditional steel wool is disgusting, unhygienic, full of germs, and quickly becomes a breeding ground for bacteria. It damages your hands and nails, making an already unpleasant task even worse. While gloves offer some protection, they're impractical and quickly deteriorate.

SCRUBBALL's brilliant solution? Put a "glove" on the steel wool instead of your hands—and that changes everything.

What Makes SCRUBBALL Different?

Revolutionary Design Features

SCRUBBALL offers a completely new way to wash dishes that's faster, more practical, more hygienic, safer for your nails and hands, simpler, and surprisingly fun. The innovative design includes a built-in magnet and adhesive metal token, allowing you to hang and drain SCRUBBALL instantly wherever you need it.

This magnetic system ensures SCRUBBALL dries quickly, limiting bacterial growth and eliminating unpleasant odors. The perfect grip design, combined with thick food-safe BPA-free silicone, provides superior control compared to bare steel wool.

Premium Quality Construction

SCRUBBALL is crafted from the highest quality unbreakable silicone that's durable, eco-friendly, and 100% recyclable. The material is FDA-approved, anti-bacterial, and resistant to extreme temperatures from -40°C to 220°C. This isn't just another kitchen gadget—it's a long-lasting investment in cleaner, easier dishwashing.

Versatile Cleaning Applications

Kitchen Powerhouse

SCRUBBALL excels at cleaning pots, glass dishes, ovens, griddles, barbecues, and most non-stick cooking surfaces. It's incredibly effective at recovering burnt pan bottoms without damaging your hands or requiring gloves. The improved grip thanks to the silicone design makes tough cleaning jobs manageable.

For glass oven dishes or Pyrex, SCRUBBALL works perfectly with water, eliminating the need for protective gloves. It's the ideal tool for cleaning and polishing griddles after cooking, tackling burnt-on oven spills, and maintaining barbecue grills. The magnetic feature makes storage on cold barbecues incredibly convenient.

Bathroom and Beyond

While designed primarily for kitchen use, SCRUBBALL's versatility extends throughout your home. The durable silicone construction and adaptable design make it suitable for various cleaning tasks wherever tough scrubbing is required.

6-in-1 Multifunctional Design

Core Functions

SCRUBBALL isn't limited to holding steel wool. This multifunctional tool serves six primary purposes:

Steel Wool Holder - The main function that revolutionizes pan scrubbing
Sponge Holder - Adapt to your preferred cleaning method
Lid Protector - Protect surfaces from hot pot lids
Pot Holder - Heat-resistant up to 220°C
Cloth Holder - Versatile fabric grip
Pocket Emptier - Convenient household organizer

Extended Functionality

The design actually offers up to 12 different uses, including utensil holder, key holder, soap holder, lid opener, silicone brush, and even a pocket silicone ball box when using two SCRUBBALLS together. This multi-purpose approach reduces clutter and the number of single-use items in your home.

Adaptable to Your Cleaning Style

SCRUBBALL adapts to your favorite cleaning method. Replace the steel wool with a sponge, cloth, towel, brush, or Scotch-Brite—whatever works best for you. This flexibility ensures SCRUBBALL remains useful regardless of your preferred cleaning approach, extending its lifespan and value.

Smart Magnetic Storage System

Quick-Access Convenience

The built-in magnet provides instant access to your scrubber. Attach SCRUBBALL to any metal surface in your kitchen—the sink, refrigerator, or barbecue—for convenient storage that keeps it within reach while allowing proper drainage.

Metal Token Included

Each SCRUBBALL includes a 3M self-adhesive metal token (25mm diameter, 1mm thick) that can be attached anywhere—even in the sink or on tiles. This means you can position SCRUBBALL exactly where you need it most, creating a custom storage solution for your space.

Eco-Friendly and Sustainable Design

Reducing Single-Use Products

SCRUBBALL was created with environmental consciousness at its core. By replacing multiple similar and single-use products with one durable tool, it significantly reduces household waste and global production demands. The ultra-durable silicone construction ensures years of reliable use.

100% Recyclable

When SCRUBBALL eventually reaches the end of its long life, it's completely recyclable. The silicone can be shredded into confetti and transformed into insulating bricks for building energy-efficient homes. The steel wool and stainless steel tokens can be recycled at metal facilities, ensuring zero waste.
