Review on Redecker Stiff Bristle Dish Brush: Durable All-Purpose Scrubber for Kitchen and Household, Heat-Resistant Tampico Fiber Bristles, 2-3/4 inch Head, 7-1/2 inch Handle, Made in Germany by Charlie Wilson

I don't want to say that this brush is infallible, but it is comparable to zero-waste plastic brushes. The brush cleaner starts to chip and mold if you don't dry it, but with proper care I've been using mine for several months with no problems. It cracked after the first two uses, but didn't get any worse after the first crack and didn't fall apart at all as I continued to use it. You can also replace the brush part and reuse the handle to keep it working as a long-term investment. When trying to reduce your impact, sometimes you have to settle for something less than perfect. But I end up using a slightly cracked reusable brush every day instead of a momentarily wasteful plastic brush.
