Promising review: “I am so glad I found this!!! I clean my shower every week but I have never been able to get the stains/hard water, whatever this grime is off. I had tried every product known to man. I cleaned my tub with good ol’ fashion elbow grease and then used my same weekly cleaner I always do with this drill attachment. Obviously my arm doesn’t have the same rotation speed as this but dannggg…I also used it on my very dirty white bathroom floor grout. HIGHLY RECOMMEND it, it saves your arm!!” —Mia
