This type has a place to hook your fingers, allowing you to grip it firmly and scrub. Made of a material like plastic or polypropylene that isn't too hard, it has less fraying than wooden ones, so I used it for my favorite stain removal and spot cleaning. I've also used the ones from MUJI, but this one is easier to scrub with even without pressing it against the sink, so it's convenient to use in the washbasin when traveling, etc., without touching anything. I bought two, one for the washbasin and one for the bath, but I only need one, so I'm selling one to declutter. I mainly used the other one, so this one hasn't been used much, but it has some small scratches on the plastic-like material. Please only consider this if you're okay with it being functional. It will be simply packaged. The shipping method may be changed.
