It has an easy handle to grip and it is lightweight. There is a rubber grip molded to the handle to help you hand on to it better. The scrubber is housed in a waterproof casing and is powered by four AA batteries so you can dunk it in water without worrying about electrocuting yourself. It comes with a bristle brush and two heavy duty scrub pads. I've only needed the bristle brush; I tried the pads, but found that the bristle brush best suits my needs so I've put the pads in a drawer. By the way, the attachments come off easy, even I with less than normal strength can exchange them easily. It only has one speed; it's either on or off. The on/off button is easy to use. I haven't found to be a problem that there is only one speed. According to the Black & Decker website it has RPM of 160 and Torque of 25 in-lbs. It comes with a two year warranty. I've had mine a year now and it has shown no signs of slowing down. Without the attachments it stands just under seven inches tall; so it's small enough to fit in a drawer. On the bottom there is a small hook you can use to hang it up. There is no choice in color; it comes in a white with a pale sea foam green trim. If you ask me this is a wimpy looking color. I would prefer a bold color like red or a dark bright blue to match the bristle brush's color.
You can buy it online or from Target for $19.99. Not to brag or anything, but I got it on clearance for half the price. If you have arthritis like I do this would be a good product to add to your cleaning supplies.

Sounds like a great product! Excellent review!
Thanks, Genie! I'm a small appliance junkie, and that's something I don't have. My kids always want ideas for Christmas gifts and I seldom want anything, so I'll have to tell them about this appliance.
