Review (4/5): Solid bang for your buck
So far so good. I've only owned this bath brush for a couple of weeks, but it's hold up well thus far. The wood beads don't feel like they are actually made of wood (although I might be mistaken) and the entire "massage" side of it seems kind of odd/useless to me, but that's not what I bought it for anyway so it's not a big deal. The one notable thing I can think of to mention is that, out of the box, the bristles are quite stiff and coarse. If you just get the brush wet and try to use it, you'll find that it's pretty rough on your back. However, if you soak it thoroughly and massage the bristles under comfortably hot water with your hands for a couple of minutes, they soften up nicely and hold a good lather, and they will stay that way from then on without scratching the living daylights out of your back. 4/5 stars. Will re-review should I change my mind.
