OXO Coiled Grill Brush With Replaceable Head

I was recently at Costco and was looking through the various grilling stuff when I saw the OXO Coiled Grill Brush With Replaceable Head for sale. This was something that I was unfamiliar with but the design looked interesting and I desperately needed a new grill brush so I thought it was worth a try.

I think when looking at this OXO brush, the thing that jumps at you right away is the design of the brush head. It features a bristle-free design utilizing stainless steel coils that resemble chainmail. This is combined with a flexible silicone backing that helps to mold against the grilling grates and makes cleaning easier. At the tip of the head is a built-in scraper and cutouts to help get around the grill grates.

A possible major selling point of this grill brush for some is the replaceable head. It’s held on by a flip latch mechanism and can easily be changed out.

Upon first impressions, I would say that for a grill brush, this thing has some good weight to it and feels like a tank. It just feels so well made and is the best feeling grill brush in terms of quality that I’ve ever owned. The entire brush is made from stainless steel aside from the silicon in the head and grip.

In terms of use, this grill brush is designed to function as a hot grill cleaning brush. That being said, I think some people will have reservations about this because the head does feature silicon. So the question is how hot can it and the grill get? I don’t have a definitive answer for that but I will say that I had my grill to over 600 degrees Fahrenheit and I see absolutely no issues with the silicon.

Now, I do want to note that my grill is fairly new. I’ve only used it a few times and I clean it between uses so it’s not that dirty in the first place. I also season my grilling grates pretty well so things don’t really stick. That being said, I recently switched and am trying out grilling on the flat side of the grilling grates. And because of this, I’ve found that some of the other grill brushes that are designed for pointy side grill grates users, don’t really work. My other grill brush is basically useless on the flat side so I was really worried about this OXO brush because it does have grooves for the pointy side of the grill grates. However, I’m happy to report that the OXO brush did absolutely fine on the flat side. It actually did great, on the flat parts. But because of this design in general, it can’t really get too deep down and there are some stragglers left behind on the sides of my grates. But overall, I’m very happy with the OXO brush’s performance.

However, I do have one point of concern and it can pototentially be a big one. After my very first use of this brush on a grill that wasn’t that dirty, I can see that some parts of the stainless steel chainmail is already wearing down and flattening out. Presumably, this is going to continue to happen with every use. So how many uses will I get before one of these links breaks? I don’t know. All I can do is continue to use this brush and hope that it lasts a while because at about $17 for a replacement brush head, I could be better off buying something else if I keep having to replace these OXO heads.

This could just completely be me worrying too much but only time will tell. I’ll report back to you guys when there is some significant change to this brush.
