Review (5/5): How did I live without this
Have you been dropping money for years on those little puff balls? You know the ones that fall apart and untangle after maybe a week. Get this instead. I have been using this over a year and it's been amazing. I haven't measured it but I believe it's about 36x12 or so. How I use it is I grab it and kind of wad it up in my hands holding it under water. Squeeze it a few good times to get the water going through really good. I actually use a bar soap which I just rub all over it while it's still balled up in my hand. I will then just squeeze while turning until the soap just starts literally foaming out. And wash as normal. I don't think it's all that rough, but it does exfoliate very well. Using this on your back is what really sold me. It's pretty big, so you can just hold it like a towel and shimmy yourself clean. I have traveled with this several times. It dries really fast. I will just shake the heck out of it and kind of whip the thing around a few times and fold it into a ziploc baggie. Just remember it is pretty big, so hand an idea where you want to hang this after your shower. A big towel rack will do fine for 2 of them side by side. If you take good care if it this can probably last a really long time. I've never machine washed mine only hand washed it. But I think you can put it in the washer. I just didn't want it to get beat up. After a year of use it still looks pretty much exactly the same. I had to cut maybe 2 frayed strands and comparing it to a new one it's lighter in color. I didn't think it would last me as long as it did and I bought a 6 pack. I wound up giving some away to friends.
