This brush is amazing. The Bristles on the brush are made out of some type of metal material which is extremely strong that does excellent scrubbing all over the toilet. The design of the brush makes it extremely easy to get around the rim for cleaning. The brush uses magnets to connect to the stand which is the best invention ever it allows the brush to be suspended in air so water from the brush does not collect at the bottom of the base. Although it’s a little pricey I would say it’s worth every penny in the long run. I have not use the plunger yet so I cannot comment but it is also suspended with magnets which I think is a really awesome idea. Way to go simplehuman!
