A powered dish scrubber? I couldn't believe my eyes when i saw a commercial for this one. It's a powered screwdriver with a scrubber at the end! The commercial showed the happy housewife getting a bunch of fresh food residue off of otherwise squeeky clean plates, just like any other dishwashing commercial. The difference was she did it with this extrememly slowly rotating two and a half pound appliance.

There is no poor-man's dremel that is going to make dishwashing fun and easy and this seven dollar toy isn't going to do anything that some hot water and a sponge can't do faster and better.

It's a shame that Wal-Mart is going to sell a bajillion of these things and encourage some other dumbass to give birth to the next useless helper appliance.

1 Heh, I won't waste my money on it. My "power dish scrubber" is named "Scott" and he only scrubs once a week. That disposable toilet brush? That I may invest in. I have coupons

3 You obviously didn't read how Bacchus over at Erosblog employed it. Apparently, it never came near a dish.
