The loofah does not cover the full LENGTH of the strap.
Well, I WAS warned.  Another reviewer complained that the loofah covered only one third of the strap.  I mistakenly took that to mean one third of the width, not one third of the length.  Looking at a picture of the product posted by a different reviewer, I could see no indication of that characteristic.  I concluded that the critical reviewer must have either received a defective product or that the product had been redesigned subsequent to that individual’s procurement.  Upon receipt of my own, I now see my error.  The loofah portion only covered the center third lengthwise.  This, coupled with the generous overall length of the strap (which the company dubiously touts as a selling point), means that anyone who is not tall will be tasked with having to try to extend both arms full-length in order to get the truncated loofah portion of the strap to reach desired areas, a problem exacerbated by the narrow design of most modern tub/showers.  This is a design oversight.
