Gets the Job Done
I've owned several different ones but this is the one I keep coming back to whenever I break the current one. I use it to apply lotion on my back, and it works well. There's two main problems with this one: after so long, the rolling balls will start falling out one by one. You can still use it, but it's super annoying. Also, if you use the applicator with wet hands or hands that have lotion on them, you are likely to feel it slide out of your hands. When it hits the floor, it will bust, or balls will fall out and never fit correctly again.<br /><br />I've remedied the slippery hands problem by wrapping a rubber band around the wand where I hold it. Now I expect this particular one to last longer than most of my others, which has been about 18 months.<br /><br />I feel like it's a good value for the price. Just expect to have to replace it in a year or two. But if it means dry, itchy back is gone, then it's worth it!
