Did anyone else find that the clear handle pulls discolor over time?

Mine haven't discolored, and I've had them for a year. I have them in the bathroom that doesn't get direct sunlight. I don't know if that would cause any discoloration. Also they are glass not acrylic.

I have had mine for almost a year and they haven't discolored, but I have them on drawers that do not get daily use.

Are these truly glass, or acrylic? if they are acrylic, they'll discolor. What's the REAL DEAL HERE?

The mesh is not smooth, so it may feel rusty but mine was not actually rusty at all. The handle definitely looks aged. I was very happy with the antique feel of it but I guess it's not for everyone. As far as what the other person said about breakage, I overstuff mine on a regular basis and have had zero issues

Yes!! After about a year of use. I've tried scrubbing it clean, but it still has black discoloration. Any ideas about how to resolve this?

I have had the same wovel since 2010 and the only problem I've had that a couple of the bolts on the handle broke. The plastic parts are all like new despite very heavy use.

Mine started discoloring also. I wish I could help you but I haven't been able to clean mine as well.

Didn't have that issue but I do remember having to really push and lock the handle into place. Hope that helps.

No. I just got through taking a good look and the grips appear to be form bonded onto the handle. I have beaten mine half to death and have had no paint peeling or stretching of the bungee. The handle appears to be as good as new and the tip also. The only negative is that there was a little plastic stick on mfg. emblem on the handle and it got loose on a 90+ degree Georgia day and I took it off. The heat and the glue backing on the emblem did not mix.

Hmm. I've not encountered this--but I've only had it a short while. Upon inspection, however, I can see how this could be possible after a great deal of use. :-/

That's probably just the picture. Mine was good for year or so. But it was so darn good, it's all gone.

Nope. Looks new even after months of use. There's a black decal on the handle that washed off after a few weeks, but that just maked it look better!

I've had no problem with the handle, or with the entire brush. Will order another one I need the next one.

The one I got about a year ago looks just like that except for the handle which has a blue plastic covering.

no, have seen to many with handles that quit working after a couple of months. Have used this for about 6 months and am still pleased with it

I had the same problem and ended up switching out the handle with an older handle off of something else I was going to throw away. If I had not had another handle I would have used something to provide more friction or returned it.

This is a recent problem. I've had/ used 3 of these in the past year and never had that problem (All 3 are still fine, they just stayed with friends/ family). Just bought a new one a month ago and the handle was impossible to remove - now the bolt is completely stripped and I'm returning for a new one. Hopefully it was just a bad batch.

Ours also suffered erosion of the finish after just a couple of years. I'm pretty sure it went through the dishwasher a few times, but not any more. No way to know if that was the cause. We are considering replacing it and I would not DW it again.

I've thrown mine away but remember the steel as being more decorative than functional. The handle was not all steel. I've gone back to using the original OXO dish brush which works much better.
