Benefits of technology

The invention is a device for cleaning a shower that has a long handle and three rotating brush heads. The device can be extended and used to push water and soap onto the shower while also scrubbing it. This device makes cleaning the shower easier and faster.

Problems solved by technology

Specifically, manually scrubbing soap scum, dirt, and other residue from flooring, shower tiles, and bathtubs, can be exhausting, time consuming, and back breaking work.
As many people would attest, even the most expensive, quality cleaning products cannot remove serious rust stains, mold, and grimy residue, unless they are used in conjunction with a scouring sponge or cleaning brush.
Requiring intensive labor that can result in achy arms, hands, and backs, scrubbing surface areas with these tools can effectively remove stains, but can leave one feeling tired and sore.
Additionally, sitting on one's knees while scrubbing the floor of a bathtub or shower can be painful and exhausting as well.
This problem can be especially challenging for those who suffer arthritis, limited mobility, or back pain, conditions which can render the task of properly cleaning a bathroom nearly impossible to complete.
