Pros- vs a drill this is waterproof (particularly relevant for battery compartment if you are getting in really wet situations) and ergonomically better for the task- the telescoping version has articulating head, and the quick attachment is more convenient than a drill chuck. Brushes are of good quality. Better than manually cleaning (or at least a body sparing complement).
Possible pros/cons - slower and less torque than a drill, which means you have more control and won't easily damage surfaces (drill and variable quality brushes available) can easily damage stuff before the damage is noticed. Not everyone will have a use for this- If you aren't going to do certain cleaning tasks, this won't be useful.
Cons- I do wish this had a second, higher speed for some tasks. Default price is a bit much (although I would only by something like this on sale, e.g. directtoolsoutlet.com)
I've used this (and longer one) to clean a wooden patio structure (remove algae from wood like a deck) and to remove many years old lichen from a swingset, clean an older bathroom tub) On the lichen, I did wish for a little more power, but still did the job. The other tasks the power was more than sufficient.

I use this to clean the waterline (and a bit below the waterline) of my boat in the marina. Works great and I would never subject my drill to that kind of saltwater abuse.

The battery life was. ... okay, I picked up spares that were also higher capacity

The downside : this is pretty expensive and single purpose. But for my needs this actually works out really well. The little scrubber does a great with a tub/tiles, takes longer than the bigger one but pretty easy to hold and use. And it's small enough I can still effectively clean inside a pot with a different and dedicated brush head.
The other nice thing about the little scrubber it's a standard hex shank, so no proprietary heads you can buy a pack on amazon.
It's a more expensive solution, especially while not on sale, and not as interoperable (these USB batteries are pretty useless other than for this scrubber), but for my specific wish list of sinks, tubs, and stuff inside that area > along with being able to help with pots and pans when needed it's been great.
It's so slow rotating and has so little torque nothing gets cleaned. Floors? Just makeovers surface dirt around and you still have to get on hands and knees to get grime.
In fact any scenario I've used this, I've needed to put a lot of elbow grease in after the fact. It's really annoying and just takes up space. I've used in siding, car, floors, bathtub etc been a complete waste.
If you're in upstate New York you can come try mine and we can both revel in what a waste of plastic it is.
But another battery platform.

A use case I hear often is cleaning the waterline in pools/boats.
