Joseph Joseph SinkTech Soap Dispensing Palm Brush + Dock
This compact palm brush combines convenient soap dispensing with efficient cleaning in a design that fits comfortably in your hand. The push-button mechanism on top releases liquid soap directly into the stain-resistant bristles, allowing one-handed operation whilst scrubbing dishes, pots, and pans. The integrated pan scraper tackles baked-on food without requiring separate tools.
The included stainless-steel dock provides hygienic storage between uses. Its drip tray catches excess water, promoting fast drying and preventing pooling around your sink area. As part of Joseph Joseph's SinkTech system, replacement heads are available separately, extending the handle's lifespan and reducing waste.

What Customers Ask About Joseph Joseph SinkTech Palm Brush + Dock
How does the palm brush differ from the regular SinkTech brush?
The palm brush features a compact, ergonomic design that fits in your hand rather than using a long handle. This provides more direct control and pressure when scrubbing, making it particularly effective for stubborn spots. The push button is positioned on top for easy thumb activation during one-handed use. The regular SinkTech brush offers extended reach for larger items and deeper pots.
What's the purpose of the stainless-steel dock?
The dock serves two functions: it keeps the brush upright and accessible beside your sink, and its integrated drip tray catches excess water, promoting faster drying between uses. This prevents water pooling on your worktop and helps maintain hygiene by keeping the bristles elevated and aired. The stainless-steel construction resists rust and wipes clean easily.
How much soap does the palm brush hold?
The compact palm design contains a smaller reservoir than the full-length SinkTech brush. Whilst Joseph Joseph doesn't specify exact capacity, the reduced size means more frequent refilling compared to longer-handled versions. However, the trade-off provides better ergonomics and control for detailed scrubbing tasks. You'll develop a refilling routine based on your washing-up frequency.
Can I buy replacement heads separately?
Yes. Joseph Joseph manufactures replacement heads for the SinkTech system, allowing you to replace only the brush head rather than the entire unit. This extends the handle's lifespan and reduces waste. Contact us for current availability of palm brush replacement heads, as options may include different bristle types or scrubbing attachments.
Is this suitable for non-stick cookware?
The bristles are suitable for most non-stick surfaces when used with appropriate pressure. However, the integrated pan scraper should be tested carefully on non-stick coatings, as some may be sensitive to rigid scrapers. For delicate non-stick finishes, use the bristles alone and reserve the scraper function for standard cookware with stubborn, baked-on residue.
Specifications
Care & Use Instructions
Before first use: Wash the palm brush with warm soapy water. Wipe the stainless-steel dock with a damp cloth. To fill the soap reservoir, twist or remove the brush head (check the specific mechanism on your model), add liquid washing-up soap to the handle, then reattach securely.
During use: Hold the palm brush comfortably in your hand with your thumb positioned over the push button on top. Press the button to dispense soap into the bristles as needed whilst scrubbing. The ergonomic design allows you to apply controlled pressure for effective cleaning. Use the integrated scraper edge for stuck-on food before scrubbing.
Daily cleaning: Wash the brush by hand with warm soapy water after each use. Rinse thoroughly to remove food particles and soap residue from the bristles. Place the brush back in the dock with bristles facing down to allow water to drain into the drip tray.
Preventing clogs: Flush the soap-dispensing system regularly with warm water to prevent clogging, especially if using thick or concentrated detergents. To flush, remove the brush head, run warm water through the handle opening, and press the button repeatedly to clear the internal mechanism.
Cleaning the dock: Empty the drip tray regularly by tipping out collected water. Wipe the stainless-steel dock with a damp cloth or sponge. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads that may scratch the finish. For water spots, use a microfibre cloth with a small amount of white vinegar, then buff dry.
Replacing the head: When bristles become worn, splayed, or lose effectiveness, replace the brush head. Twist or remove the old head according to your model's mechanism, align the new replacement head with the handle, and secure it firmly. Ensure proper attachment to prevent soap leaks during use.
Storage: Keep the palm brush in its dock between uses. The elevated position promotes air circulation around the bristles, encouraging faster drying and preventing bacterial growth. Position the dock near your sink for convenient access during washing up.
Avoid: Dishwashers, as heat may damage the soap-dispensing mechanism. Do not use steel wool or harsh abrasive cleaners on the stainless-steel dock. Avoid extremely thick or gel-based detergents that may clog the dispensing system more readily than standard liquid soap.

Frequently Asked Questions
What if I've used it and don't like it?
Return it anyway. Our no quibble guarantee covers used items - if it doesn't meet your needs, we'll refund you. This applies even after you've used the brush and dock for washing up. We've offered this guarantee since 1972 because we believe customers shouldn't take a risk when purchasing homeware.
How does the Half-Price Replacement guarantee work?
Valid for 2 years from purchase date. If you accidentally damage the brush handle or dock, we'll replace it at half price with proof of purchase and evidence of damage. Photos are acceptable. Normal bristle wear isn't covered as replacement heads are available separately, but accidental breakage of the handle or dock qualifies for the guarantee.
How long does delivery take?
Standard delivery to mainland UK addresses can take up to 7 working days, but is usually 3-4, and is free for orders over £49. Next day delivery may be available for £9.95 on orders placed before 1pm Monday to Thursday, depending on your location and our stock levels. You can also collect from our shops in Cobham or Reigate, or our warehouse in Redhill.
Do I need both the palm brush and the regular SinkTech brush?
It depends on your washing-up needs. The palm brush excels at detailed scrubbing and stubborn spots where direct pressure is needed. The regular long-handled brush provides better reach for large pots, deep containers, and general dishwashing. Many customers find both useful for different tasks, but if choosing one, consider which style suits your most common washing-up scenarios.
How often should I empty the drip tray?
Empty the drip tray when water accumulates, typically after several uses or once daily if you wash up frequently. Regular emptying prevents overflow and maintains hygiene. Simply tip the collected water into the sink and wipe the tray if needed before replacing the brush in the dock.
Will the stainless-steel dock rust?
Stainless steel resists rust and corrosion under normal use. Keep the dock clean and dry between uses, and empty the drip tray regularly. Avoid leaving the dock in standing water or exposed to harsh chemicals. If water spots develop, wipe with a microfibre cloth and white vinegar, then buff dry to maintain its appearance.
What type of liquid soap works best?
Standard liquid washing-up soap provides the best results. Very thick, gel-based, or highly concentrated detergents may dispense more slowly and increase the risk of clogging. If you prefer concentrated detergent, dilute it slightly when refilling the handle reservoir, and flush the system regularly with warm water to maintain smooth operation.
Can I use this for cleaning surfaces other than dishes?
The palm brush is designed specifically for dishwashing and kitchen cleaning tasks. The compact size and soap-dispensing feature make it effective for sinks, worktops, and other kitchen surfaces. However, the bristles are optimized for food residue rather than bathroom cleaning or heavy-duty scrubbing. For multi-surface cleaning, consider dedicated cleaning brushes designed for those specific tasks.
