Our verdict
Full-size telescoping brush versus the classic short one. The AstroAI reaches the roof, squeegees slush, and has a better scraper; the Mallory is a quarter the length, a fraction of the price, and lives in a door pocket where it's reachable when the trunk is frozen shut. The right answer for most cars is both: the AstroAI in the trunk, the Mallory in the cabin.
Pick the AstroAI if…
- ✓Your only brush — needs to reach the roof
- ✓Slush and real ice are regular
- ✓You want a squeegee and a chipper scraper
Pick the Mallory if…
- ✓Cabin backup scraper
- ✓A compact car or a teen's first car
- ✓Cheapest thing that works
