Best Fireplace Chimney Brushes of 2026

"I was genuinely surprised by how much lint this kit pulled out of our 16 ft. dryer vent. It was much more affordable than hiring a pro, and I liked that the length could be adjusted to fit my needs. Excellent value and performance!"

"I found this tool easy to operate, and the flexible rods made it simple to clean through bends and long runs. After a few sessions, it consistently performed well. The materials seem sturdy, and I appreciate that it works without needing extra tools."

"Using this kit, I was able to remove huge amounts of lint from a 25 ft vent. Just a heads-up: avoid running your drill in reverse for too long, as the pieces may come apart. Otherwise, it’s a highly effective cleaning solution."

"I bought this as a replacement brush for my fireplace tool set, and it’s sturdy and fits perfectly in the holder. The price was fantastic, and I appreciate having an extra brush as a backup. Even though it’s a little smaller, it still gets the job done."

"The brush fit well on my existing pole and so far, I think it’s a good value for the money. Shipping was fast, too."

"While the brush functions as needed and makes my fireplace tool set usable again, I did notice that the bristles are on the cheaper side and the brush is a bit narrower and shorter than average. Still, it serves its purpose."

"I have a pellet stove with 3-inch vent pipes and two 90-degree turns, and this brush's short length and flexible spring tubing made it easy to push through the bends. It worked perfectly for my setup and is made in the USA, which is a plus. Definitely a must-have for similar situations."

"The cleaning head on this brush is outstanding—much better than others I’ve tried. However, I found the handle a bit too flexible for my needs, as it bunched up when I tried to push it through my pellet stove chimney. I eventually had to get a stiffer one, but I really wish the handle had more structure."

"For my 3-inch pipe, the rod wasn’t stiff enough to push the brush very far, so I couldn’t clean more than a couple feet. I ended up buying a different one with a firmer handle, which worked better for longer pipes."

"I was really impressed with how simple and effective this tool was for cleaning my chimney. It saved me a ton of money compared to hiring someone, and the quality exceeded my expectations. Hooking it up to my drill made the whole process easy, and now I can keep my chimney cleaner more often without the hassle."

"As someone who wanted a DIY solution, I found this kit incredibly straightforward to use. The instructions were clear, the rods were flexible enough for my chimney's curves, and the extensions didn't break even when bent. Everything came apart easily for storage, and the included safety gear was a nice touch."

"I've used this tool for a couple of years now and the setup is so quick and intuitive. The rods are sturdy enough to reach the full height of my chimney and flexible enough to handle bends. Just one annual cleaning session gets rid of all the buildup for me, but I do recommend having a shop vac ready to manage the dust."

"This brush is way better than standard hearth brooms—the bristles are both sturdy and soft enough to get into corners and under log lighters. It’s not for hot coals, but for general fireplace cleaning, it’s an absolute 10 and much cheaper than a full hearth set."

"I bought this brush for my wood stove area and it’s perfect—great quality, matches my black dustpan and shovel, and built to last. I’m very particular and compare a lot before buying, but this one is a winner. Highly recommended for ashes and soot."

"I use this brush to clean gravel and mud off my work truck’s rubber apron, and it works easily. I’d definitely purchase again for how well it handles tough jobs."

"I decided to clean my own chimney after getting a ridiculous quote from a professional. Attaching this to a cordless drill made it easy to use. The bristles stayed in great shape even after a long, tough job. It was affordable, sturdy, and did its job well."

"This cleaner worked perfectly from inside the house up. I used a garbage bag to keep the dust out, and the draft in my chimney has never been better. Only one coupling came loose, but I had extra rods, so it was no problem. Great way to avoid climbing on the roof!"

"While the product is good for the price, I did notice that some rods disconnect under torque and button locks could be stronger. For basic use it’s fine, but if you need heavy-duty cleaning, consider a different lock mechanism."

"I got this kit to clean my parents' 40-year-old, never-cleaned brick fireplace after getting a $950 quote from a chimney service. The kit is easy to use, comes with all the accessories you need, and the storage bag is super handy. The bristle head needs a little warming up to get fully extended, but it works like a charm with a drill. My dad and I got the chimney spotless in about 10 minutes. Great value and efficient design—just make sure the rods lock securely."

"This kit includes more than just the basics—extra accessories like a hand brush, drop cloth, goggles, and gloves make chimney cleaning easier. The rods are quite flexible and the brush head fits my stove pipe perfectly. I appreciate not having to climb on the roof anymore. The only minor issue is that the rods can bang around inside the pipe, but overall, this kit is a solid investment for hassle-free cleaning."

"The overall build quality is excellent—sturdy, flexible, and very user-friendly. Cleaning was quick and thorough, and I’d highly recommend this kit for anyone wanting professional-level results at home."

"The brush itself works well, but I found that it doesn't sit securely in my holder and tends to fall out with even a slight touch. I was hoping for a more universal fit."

"After only a couple of uses, the brush was in worse condition than my old one, which lasted ten years. The metal part is sturdy, but the brush quality really let me down."

"The hearth brush I received matched exactly what I expected. I'm satisfied with my purchase."

"I was honestly surprised at how simple and efficient this kit made the job. The included hand brush, sponges, and gloves were a nice touch, and I found the whole process quick and easy—even cleaning up after was a breeze. I had put off chimney cleaning for years, but with this kit, I’ll definitely be doing it again next season."

"I have a tall, three-story house with a fireplace in the basement, and it’s always been a hassle to clean the chimney. Using this kit from inside the fireplace worked extremely well. The flexibility of the rods was impressive, and I managed to finish the job alone in under 30 minutes. Swapping out the rods was easy, and my regular drill handled it just fine."

"After several years without cleaning, I bought this kit to tackle my fireplace flue. It was super easy to assemble and use—I just set my drill to low speed and added the sections as needed. Cleaning up and disassembling was straightforward, and the job was much less messy than I expected."
