Useful and practical
This is an incredibly useful and practical purpose-built tool that does its job very nicely.<br /><br />I've included some photos next to a ruler to show its dimensions. It's 8 inches long when it's collapsed and can be extended to up to 11.5 inches long by pulling on the head and the handle at the same time. The rod that connects the two parts is metal and the pieces are solidly connected, so it won't easily move from the position you choose, but at the same time, isn't difficult to reposition.<br /><br />Since it's hard plastic, it won't absorb the product that you wish to apply and is easily cleaned. And since it's got an unusual color scheme, it will stand out from the rest of your dishes if you wash it in the kitchen and put it into the dish rack. That way you won't be likely to grab it by accident and use it for cooking the way you might if you were to use a spatula or similar item as an applicator instead.<br /><br />It's wider than it is tall. The head is about 1.25 inches tall by 2.5 inches wide, so you could slide an infant's sock over it or crochet or knit a little fitted cover (which I intend to do) to also use it to clean or remove product from difficult-to-reach areas.<br /><br />Using this thing is so very much better than the crude methods I was cobbling together from things I had around here that just weren't adequate for the job. My nightly routine is now quick and easy.<br /><br />The seller is wonderful. When my initial order experienced an extreme delay, the seller cheerfully sent me another one and didn't expect me to send back the initial one once it finally made it here. I would definitely order from them again.
