LDR 164 6458BN Ashton Toilet Brush and Can, Brushed Nickel

LDR 164 6458BN Ashton Toilet Brush and Can, Brushed NickelI only received this item yesterday, but it seems to be as advertised, and the handle is certainly long enough to really clean the bowl. The problem is with the printed label on the product. I'm 64 years old and have removed a lot of labels in my time. This was a real challenge. The label is glued onto the product over the label's entire surface and as you can see from the picture, it is substantial. I began by soaking it in the sink (for over an hour). This had little effect. After another hour, I carefully removed as much paper as I could (which was only a slim top layer and took some time. Then I applied glue/gum remover and let it sit. I could rub most of the remaining paper off, and some of the glue. A second application of glue/gum remover was successful. It shouldn't be this hard.

The HUGE label that is HEAVILY GLUED to the FRONT of this product is going to be almost impossible for most people to remove without damage.

I spent two days using everything I could find that removes commercial glue, labels, bumper stickers, etc, without success.

Was ready to return it for refund, when my husband tried a strong industrial solvent he had in his workshop that finally took the glue off.

The canister itself looks like a cheaply made, long tin can with an ugly seam down the back.

Why not glue that huge label over the back seam? Or leave it off entirely & stick a small label on the bottom of the canister, if needed.

I'll just keep it now, after all of the trouble that I went through, but I'd NEVER purchase THIS product again. BUYER BEWARE!

Do you see the manufacturer product label shown in the picture? Take a look at the size. Now imagine it GLUED TIGHTLY to a BRUSHED NICKEL surface. Even using an adhesive remover took forever to remove the label and it ruined the finish. I still don't have it all off. There's no reason for a label that large and certainly no reason to stick it to the surface with what is just short of a permanent adhesive. An entire bottle of Goo-Gone was not completely effective. And none of that should be required. Maybe if I go and buy another bottle of adhesive remover (and a scraper) it will come off. But really, should that be required? I think not. Please be warned.

I ordered two. With lots and lots of patience I was able to remove one label very slowly resulting in minimal residue, however the second was a disaster!! The point was to get a nice brushed nickel toilet brush to keep in our new remodeled bathroom but with the label residue we are better off with a cheap plastic one from the local supermarket. Would never buy again!

I am extremely unhappy with this purchase, 2 pf the 4 cans were dented and the sticker on the front woud NOT come off. I purchased 2x LDR 164 6458BN Ashton Toilet Brush and Can, Brushed Nickel, as well as 2x LDR 164 6456BN Ashton Extra Toilet Paper Holder, Brushed Nickel and in all 4 cases, the sticker would leave glue marks. The only way to get the glue off was to literally scrub it off and now there are scratch marks everywhere. Not recommendable!
