Is the Moostar toilet brush any good? Yes. If you want a toilet brush that is more hygienic and better looking than a cheap bristle brush, the Moostar Soap Push is a strong choice. It has a 304 stainless steel build and a flexible silicone head you can replace, and you can load cleaner into the handle and release it through the head with a press. It is Good Housekeeping Institute Approved 2026 and GoodHomes Approved, and it won Best Toilet Brush in the woman&home Reader Approved Awards 2026. It costs more than a basic supermarket brush, so below we look at what you get for the money and who it suits.
What is the Moostar Soap Push?
The Soap Push is Moostar's silicone toilet brush and holder. Here is what you get:
- 304 stainless steel construction. This grade of steel is commonly used in humid rooms because it resists rust.
- A flexible silicone head. It has short, dense tips for everyday marks and longer, flexible bristles for under the rim.
- A built-in cleaner reservoir in the handle. Fill it with your usual toilet cleaner and press to release a little through the head as you clean.
- One-push head release. A single press lifts the head free of the holder, so you don't have to handle it.
- A replaceable head. When the head wears, you replace only the head, not the whole set.
- Wall-mounted or freestanding. The holder can stand beside the toilet or go on the wall.
The standard finishes are Stainless Steel, Black and Grey. The Luxe range comes in Copper, Gold and Chrome.
What have independent reviewers said?
Three UK publications have reviewed or recognised the Soap Push:
- woman&home Reader Approved Awards 2026: Winner, Best Toilet Brush. The brush scored 9.2/10. Its tester said: "This product takes having a spotless loo to another level!"
- GoodHomes Approved. GoodHomes' tried-and-tested review said the brush "instantly feels way more hygienic to use with the silicone material". It summed up the dispenser as "Press, scrub, done!" and found the wall adhesive "very easy" to fit and "very secure".
- Good Housekeeping Institute Approved 2026. In Good Housekeeping UK's best toilet brushes guide, the Moostar was writer Jasmine Vorley's personal pick. For the record, that guide's overall winner was a different brush, Mr Siga.
Why silicone rather than bristles?
Which? says newer silicone brushes "often have an edge" over traditional nylon bristles. Silicone is non-porous, so it is less likely to harbour bacteria, and grime rinses off more easily. Expert Reviews makes a similar point: tightly packed bristles are hard to clean fully, so bristle brushes need replacing more often.
Which? also notes that drying matters as much as the material, because a brush left sitting in water is a hygiene problem. Whichever brush you choose, rinse it in the flush and let it drip dry before putting it back in the holder.

Pros and cons
| Pros | Cons |
|---|---|
| Non-porous silicone head that rinses clean | Costs more than a basic bristle brush (Expert Reviews lists an ASDA brush at about £2) |
| Cleaner reservoir in the handle, so there is no separate bottle to pick up | The reservoir needs topping up |
| One-push, hands-free head release | Like most silicone heads, it may need a separate limescale remover or pumice for very old, dried-on stains |
| Replaceable head (£9.99) instead of a whole new set | Flat silicone heads take a slightly different cleaning technique from round bristle brushes |
| 304 stainless steel in six finishes; wall-mounted or freestanding | |
| Recognised by Good Housekeeping, GoodHomes and woman&home |

How does it compare with Joseph Joseph?
Joseph Joseph's silicone brushes are popular in the UK. Mumsnet's round-up names the Flex Plus its best overall brush, and Expert Reviews names the Flex Smart its best hygienic toilet brush. They are good brushes. The main differences are that the Moostar's handle holds and dispenses cleaner, its build is stainless steel, and you can buy replacement heads for it. According to Expert Reviews, the Flex Smart's head isn't replaceable. We compare the two in detail in Joseph Joseph vs Moostar.
Who is it for?
The Soap Push suits you if you:
- dislike drippy, smelly bristle brushes
- want cleaner applied exactly where you scrub
- care how the brush looks next to your bathroom fittings
If you only want the cheapest brush that does the job, a basic bristle brush will cost less upfront. The trade-off is that you will usually replace it more often.
Verdict
The Moostar Soap Push is a well-made, hygienic silicone toilet brush. The cleaner dispenser and hands-free head release are useful features, and three UK publications have recognised it. It isn't the cheapest option, but for most households it is worth the extra few pounds.
