Improvements could be made

it is not the most durable and it would be more efficient if it was straight rather than angled, but the price was good

Easy to use

Long enough handle for both my 10 gal and 29. Does an excellent job at a reasonable price.

Course scrubbing brush

Rough enough yet still gentle for glass. Did a great job of cleaning up areas that my magnet glass cleaner wouldn't.

A little bulky for a 20 gallon tank

It works good but it's a little bigger than I needed.
