MSR Alpine Dish Brush / Scraper , Red

MSR makes great stuff. This is simple, light, compact, and effective.

This little gem is one of those rare backpacking trifectas. It is small, light and has multiple uses. Besides its obvious use for cleaning the pan, it also serves as my eating utensil. The shape of the spatula end allows scraping every last bite out of the pan. Need a spoon? just slurp it. Because it is hardened plastic and kind of pointy it also works like a butter knife. It is not going to whittle any snare hooks but can sure slice some cheese. If using the same pan for more than a couple of days it can become dangerous to not properly clean it after use. This scrub brush leaves the pan sparkling clean without scratching the sides and encouraging bacteria. It will be joining me on many more adventures to come.

Works as advertised. It’s great in the hand and is easy to use. It appears to be very sturdy.

I HATE getting food particles all over my washrag. This tiny dish brush let's me more effectively scrub my cookware clean while keeping my washrag cleaner longer. Fits easily into my Toaks pot kitchen with a very low weight penalty.

After reading the glowing reviews of this scraper brush, I nearly left my nylon scrubber at home on my last camping trip. I'm glad I didn't, because the first thing I tried to use it for was cleaning the bacon pan. This thing shines if you're trying to scrape away stubborn cooked-on solids. However, it is not very effective against mushy eggs and sludgy grease. Its bristles and exterior get clogged up with thick liquids, rendering it useless. It's also not the best for cleaning utensils, because you need something that can conform to their shape and scrub both sides. It's too tedious to try to use the bristles to clean a fork. That isn't to say that this tool is useless. For some tasks, it is the best tool in your kit. Just don't make the mistake of thinking this can be the only cleaning implement you bring, or you may end up using your spare gaiter for dish duty. Armed with this knowledge, I think I'll make more effective use of this scraper in the future.

I bought one for myself based on a random Reddit comment. I’ve since bought two more as gifts, and one of those people has bought another one to give as a gift. It’s sturdier than a regular scraper and easier to hold on to. It works on my stovetop, wood table, counters, inside the air fryer, and on all my dishes with no scratching. The bristles are stiff enough to actually scrub and they hold up really well. Still perfectly straight and not bent every which way like a normal dish scrubber. I know this is meant for camping and outdoor use, but as a certified indoorsman™️ I approve this product for household use.

Works great have used on my cast iron Dutch ovens and they scraped around the edges very well

It's small and light and perfect for backpacking. I have one on my car camping gear and backpacking gear. I might even get one for my home kitchen. It won't scratch nonstick pans. Dries quickly.
