Does the RCA RD-1006 Discwasher Vinyl Brush come in a sturdy box? Where do you put it when not in use? How do you clean the brush?

No, the Disc washer came in a small bag. The brush is cleaned by the small red thingy,

I've run every part of the Venta through the dishwasher with a bowl of vinegar. Didn't have much trouble with warping and the vinegar helps clean the dishwasher too! The real question is: does running the parts through the dishwasher actually clean everything? For the top housing the answer is a resounding yes (take the motor out of the housing first). For the disks, I have mixed results. I have very hard water with a lot of calcium salts and it does help some but after 6 years the disks are pretty caked and likely nothing will help. That said you can always buy replacement disks and the cost is about $40/per on Venta's site. For the bottom, I have found that the best way to clean is to just soak in vinegar for a few hours with some pretty warm water. Then a bit of elbow grease and it gets mostly clean. There is still white residue on the sides, but I'm not really worried about that.

Dear Buyer, the answer is NO. It does not come with a case. I have not seen a dishwash brush that comes with a case, unless it is a promotion. Is it diswasher safe ? (YES). I hope these answer will help with your purchase. ALL THE BEST! Sincerely; DJ Bobby Lorenzo with Performance and Sound Co. http://www.djbobbylorenzo.com and http://www.performanceandsoundco.com.

It came with the brush cleaner and in a box. I don't know if it's the original box or not.

There's a screw in the middle of the plastic tip, so I'm guessing you can remove that and slide out the rows of the brush for cleaning. It's very easy to clean just leaving it intact, though. As for the hardness of the bristles, they are mostly rigid but have a little bend when forced.

No, I received mine packaged well in its box and in a sealed brown envelope. The brush is in sealed in a plastic .

I don't think you can wash it - I wiped the discs with a piece of cloth soaked in rubbed alcohol. Been using it for about 5 years, no issues what so ever. Good luck.

Why does it look like this? Or why is it packaged like this? It comes in a box or a vac pack .. depending on if you order the retail or oem version. Why the shape? You may want to google the product .. there are also some videos like this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wJGFBHY2FMg

I bought a long handle scrub brush for just this reason. If the water bottle has a wide enough mouth, the brush can clean the whole inside well. I've restored several grungy water bottles this way. So, no dishwasher, and still confidently clean.

Dan, I have found that soaking the brush in hot water and dishwashing detergent first helps. You're right, simply trying to handwash it right away doesn't work. I've found that using the brush to "wash" out a small dish with detergent works. It's worth the trouble; this is the best basting brush I've ever used.

I got mine packaged in the original factory box. It was packaged very well, double thick cardboard with a bunch of molded styrofoam. Very sturdy box. The company amazon used to deliver was great too. Delivery guys were good about keeping it vertical. They helped me un-box and took away the trash I didn't want. Kept the box and some of the styrofoam for future moves.

The heavy duty plastic solution tank should stand up to it and the scrub brushes definitely will. The difficulty will be in getting the stripped wax and solution up off the floor, because there is no pick-up feature. Maybe a small squeegie from Walmart would do to get it all in one place to be easier to clean it up.

I just received mine today in E-commerce packaging. It arrived in a sturdy box with foam protection. My guess is that they eliminate the usual "picture" factory box that you see in stores. That saves space and double packaging.

I don't have a dishwasher so I usually use scotchbrite on the underside of the blade. A stiff cleaning brush from back to front should work well also.

Use a mini vac (like a mini dirt devil) and go along the slats and if there is no grease, it should suck the dust out. You can also try a soft bottle brush for narrow bottles (like these http://www.amazon.com/Casabella-20530-Soft-Tip-Brushes/dp/B000I21LLC/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid;=1373079798&sr;=8-3&keywords;=bottle+brushes), which should fit between the slats. It may be too late for this, but I saved the box and in the seasons when I am not using the Fan I put it back in the box. If you have thrown the box out, you can get a tall plastic bag and cover it from the top down to store.

I rincs it thoroughly after using it. Then stick it in the dishwasher. Otherwise, if I need it again before I run the washer, I put soap directly onto the base of the bristles, and just using my fingers lather it around, then rinse and use.
