Nice, silicone back 'brush' bit too soft. Good handles.
We gave this 3 test uses for an initial assessment of this back scrubber/brush. It is designed nicely, with handles that make usage very user friendly. If they made this out of elastic, you could shower and do resistance band exercises. hehe. Seriously, the handles work well, and act as convenient loops to hang the device to dry out in the shower.<br />There is an issue with using silicone brush heads, they tend to be soft/flexible. So, if you use this brush, do not expect the same experience as a loofah or bristle brush. And, you have to really work up a lather in your hands and then transfer it to the silicone brush head. Attempts to create foam/lather by rubbing body wash or soap on the silicone just wasn't satisfactory.<br />As mentioned, the brush surface tends to be soft/gentle. The 'scrubbing' side does rub, but nowhere near deep cleaning or exfoliating level. The bumpy side, for massage, does provide a textured rub, but is even less effective for soaping and cleaning your back.<br />Maybe I'm too old school, liking my cleaning brush to be able to really scrub.<br />Attached are photos to show real world images, with a ruler for size reference.<br />Did not use the included hooks, because we used the shower caddy that already had hooks for shower accessories. The bonus bath sponge looks fine, but did not use that yet. Again, maybe I don't pamper myself enough while showering. haha. If the significant other uses it, any pertinent information will be added to this review. However, I think the majority of people will be concerned about the effectiveness and quality of the back scrubber.<br />So, the product does match the description and depiction in the product details. However, my opinion is the softness of the brush hinders the effectiveness as a shower back scrubbing device. I do like that it is very resistant to mold and is extremely easy to clean and maintain. Maybe I have to learn to adapt to the softer texture of this type of brush. Based on our experience, this silicone brush garners a 3.5 rating. If you already use and like silicone back scrubbers, this is a quality product worth considering. If you are old school, this might disappoint expectations.
