Interesting but manufactured in the US has significant negative appeal for me right now due to the whole government situation. Maybe when maga is flushed away.
Their page is very ‘murica. I would have been ok with that 10 years ago but now my first association is maga shit. It’s sad we have come to this.
That chain mail on the head is absolutely going to wear out and need replacement.
How the hell can you claim the metal bristle ones wear out after only a year but this untested $60 one will last longer?
I’m going to wear out the head in 2 years and they’ll want $30+shipping to replace it.
You honestly think you're going to wear out chainmail in under a year? You must never sleep. Only grill.
Any abrasive material is a part that will wear out.
And the universe would eventually succumb to entropy, so what? We're talking about stainless. Which is likely harder than your grill. Which would get used what, like a dozen or so times a year?
I bet that chain would outlast me. For sure my grill. Definitely a wire brush. And last a year, easy.
Stop making up bullshit to justify this disposable grill brush we’re being pitched.
Stainless is softer than cast iron.
He highlights in his video that the bristles of those wire brushes cause emergency surgery when mistakenly ingested as brushing the grill with them has show that they break off. This is part of the "replace every year" and is something those cheaper brushes even sticker onto their handles.
He didn't claim they wear out in a year, the brushes themselves do. Please try watching both parts of the video. Even if you disagree, it's interesting and highlights a problem with losing knowledge in the tooling industry.
