Drill Brush Set advice

Hi,

I am thinking of buying a drill brush set to use for cleaning bathroom mainly but also for occasional use on hob, inside car etc.

There seems to be a lot of brushes out there but in terms of quality and durability what can I look out for?  Thanks,

    Find a standard brush in a shop, chop down to fit your drill

    wow, cannot think of anything in my bathroom which is so dirty it would need a power drill brush to clean it 
    Are drill brushes solutions looking for problems?

    Scrubbing the grout lines between tiles might need a power tool.

    And a toothbrush is just as effective as a power tool (and probably less destructive).

    Any language construct that forces such insanity in this case should be abandoned without regrets. –

    'Drillbrush' is a brand who sell a variety of kits for many jobs. There's also many generic 'drill brushes' that may or may not be all the same exact thing at different price of points.

    I have no personal experience, my grout comes up sparkling using an old electric toothbrush.
