Brush Hero Update | Shark Tank Season 9

Car enthusiasts Kevin Williams and Glenn Archer discovered that regular car washing methods are wasteful and inefficient. In search of a better solution, they created the Brush Hero. This water-powered brush attaches to a garden hose and uses water pressure to spin the brush head, effectively cleaning with less water and effort than traditional methods. Let’s take a look at our Brush Hero update and pitch recap to see if they secured a deal with any of the sharks.

If you’re short on time, here’s a quick overview of what happened to Brush Hero after Shark Tank.

Kevin and Glenn appeared on Shark Tank Season 9, seeking $500,000 for 10% equity in their cleaning tool company, Brush Hero. Despite their impressive pitch, they left without a deal.

In terms of a Brush Hero update, the company has expanded and built a strong market presence. The company was recognized by Car and Driver Magazine and formed a partnership with Costco. Additionally, Brush Hero has grown to $6 million in annual sales.

Shark Tank Brush Hero Pitch

• Entrepreneurs: Kevin Williams and Glenn Archer
• Business: Water Powered Cleaning Brush
• Ask: $500,000 for 10% equity
• Result: No deal
• Sharks: None

Kevin and Glenn began their pitch by explaining their need for investment to expand marketing reach and scale production. They aim to make Brush Hero a household name in auto care and beyond.

The Brush Hero is a water-powered cleaning tool that attaches to a standard garden hose.

It uses water pressure to rotate a brush head, generating torque to scrub away dirt and grime. 

Brush Hero goes beyond car cleaning as it is designed with versatility in mind.

Its Interchangeable brush heads allow it to clean various surfaces, from delicate patio furniture to greasy grills. 

Even better, its soft bristles provide gentle cleaning for sensitive areas, while stiffer options handle heavy-duty jobs. 

Additionally, the Brush Hero is eco-friendly, consuming up to 50% less water than a standard hose.

The key benefit of the Brush Hero lies in its ease of use. Water pressure powers the cleaning, eliminating the need for electricity or batteries. 

After a short demonstration of how the product works, Kevin and Glenn told the sharks that it sells for $34.99 and has a $6.50 production cost. 

The sharks were impressed with the product margins. Kevin O’Leary wanted to know more about the company’s sales. 

The entrepreneurs shared that they advertise primarily on Facebook, with a $460,000 ad spend resulting in $1.2 million in sales. 

Robert Herjavec felt their $10 million valuation was too high, estimating it at $1.7 million. He’s not interested, so he goes out.

Mark Cuban followed suit. 

Kevin O’Leary also exited the deal due to the valuation.

Daymond John, despite his reservations about the valuation, offered $500,000 for 25% equity. 

Lori Greiner quickly matched this offer, highlighting her QVC show as a great platform for the product. 

Kevin and Glenn countered with 20%, but both sharks stood firm. 

When the entrepreneurs stepped out to discuss, Kevin and Glenn returned to find Daymond had withdrawn his offer. 

Lori modified her offer to a $250,000 loan at 7% interest plus $250,000 for 25% equity. They declined her offer and left without securing any deal from the sharks.

Let’s get a Brush Hero update to see whether or not that was the right decision for Kevin and Glenn.

Shark Tank Brush Hero Update

Shortly after appearing on Shark Tank, our Brush Hero update found that sales skyrocketed, increasing to 500 times their normal volume. 

However, this success brought challenges, including a flood of cheap Chinese counterfeits on Amazon.

This led to disrupted customer service and led to an in-depth review of Amazon’s policies. 

Our research on the Brush Hero update revealed that they were able to overcome the counterfeit issues and were voted one of the 25 best gifts for car lovers in 2018 by Car and Driver Magazine. 

Since Shark Tank, Brush Hero has grown to over $6 million in annual sales and has secured a partnership with Costco.
