![]() ![]() To test its water resistance, we sprayed the Ryobi with a garden hose. We used it on dirty tires, a muddy truck bed, and the bowl of a water fountain that had gunk buildup. ![]() We started outdoors because the tool’s ample rotating brush (6 inches in diameter) is well suited for scrubbing siding, decks, concrete steps, and automobiles. We charged its 18-volt lithium-ion battery on the included charger, inserted it into the water-resistant case at the tool’s base, and got busy. Being familiar with the high quality of other Ryobi products, we expected great things from the company’s 18-volt handheld power scrubber, and we weren’t disappointed. Our top pick in the lineup is made by Ryobi, a well-known power tool brand. When testing was complete, we added and averaged the points for each scrubber and used the results to help categorize the award and best use for each product. For products with multiple attachments, we tested each brush/buffer option in its intended use. We used a rubric and awarded points for each feature or function, including power, runtime, durability, ease of use, water resistance (when applicable), and overall quality. The only scrubber tested on just one surface was the Simpson power washer scrubber because it is designed only for flat concrete surfaces and is not suitable for any other type of cleaning. We tested each scrubber on a variety of surfaces, using the manufacturer’s suggestions as our primary guide. When the scrubbers arrived, we charged their batteries (if applicable) and then put them to work. We didn’t include corded scrubbers because today’s trend is toward cordless versions, and the corded ones we found were designed mainly for commercial floor scrubbing. But we discovered several new brands, so we depended on the manufacturer’s description of the tools plus the reviews from actual buyers when deciding which to test. When we set out to select power scrubbers for our hands-on tests, we initially looked at brand names-both Ryobi and Rubbermaid are respected manufacturers of tools and household helpers, respectively.
