This Toilet Brush Holder is Self-Cleaning

Toilet brushes are kinda gross. They only really clean anything the first few times you use them, and then you’re pretty much just passing one bit of nastiness around from toilet to toilet. This is why disposable toilet brushes exist, but apparently, one team has got a better option. A more… futuristic option.

Introducing the Lumi self-sanitizing toilet brush and base. Yes, really. This crowdfunded device features a toilet brush with a germ-fighting ergonomic design, but that’s not the selling point. No, the selling point is the base. When a brush is placed into the base, a series of hidden lights blasts the bristles with specially-tuned UV lights that annihilate germs. The base also features vents and an evaporation pan to help the brush dry faster. It’s a dryer, germ-free toilet brush. It seems almost unnatural, but it’s the truth.

The Lumi’s dev team launched a Kickstarter for the product in early September with a $5,000 goal. At its conclusion, the campaign received $78,559 of pledges. People are really, really stoked on this toilet brush, I guess.
