I have mixed thoughts on this, so bare with me. I think it is more of a matter of preference. So the very things that some people like about it you may dislike, and visa versa. Read through product description, read through reviews, read the points I make and perhaps you will be able to determine if this simple item is appropriate for your needs.--Super soft silicone. The bristles remind me of a silicone basting brush. If you can imagine that, then you know how soft these bristles are. So if you are looking for a super duper gentle cleansing tool, this might be for you. It is super soft, and not at all abrasive.--Gently promotes circulation. If you don't want it for cleansing (or in addition to cleansing), then it might be fine for non soap body brushing for increased circulation, stimulation (ie; wet while in shower, or dry out of shower),--Since it really doesn't make soaps lather up like a wash cloth or loofah would you can still use it as part of a sudsy wash routine by using soaps that you apply separate from this (like Dove body soap)- then use this to go over skin.--Exfoliating? eh, not sure how much it can reliably do so given the extreme softness of bristles.--Other areas: It seems gentle enough to use on face, and perhaps for use on scalp depending on your hair or lack of it.--Hand grip; as a hand strap and spots to slide fingers into for support in keeping it on. The more wet and sudsy it gets, the more apt it is to slide off. Kind of annoying. I recommend placing it on while hand is still dry and try to get your hand/fingers up in it as far as possible--Hygienic. It is silicone and not a material that will trap nasties. It rinses clean, and can hang via the hand strap on a hood in shower if you have one. So yes, so much better than a wash cloth. I never use a wash cloth more than once. As for loofahs/balled up body scrubbies- I gave up on those long ago due to how gross they seemed if not fully dry between uses. I had discovered an AWESOME (to me) nylon loofah item that is basically a straight piece of long nylon which lathers everything and dries quickly, but might be too harsh for some. I love it for a full body scrub down. This is the answer to what this hand scrubber is not! https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000CSDDDG/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1--All in all, I do use it and I like it for an easy gentle rub down in the shower. I have applied body wash to it and it kinda lathered but not much, so I do like it a lot more with a soap I already applied to body. Also, by doing so I am less likely to lose grip of this thing. It hasn't fallen apart on me yet in the 6 weeks I have been using it, and that is what I am basing the majority of my rating on- quality of material-- no ripping, no break down, seems fresh and clean every time i use it.

I liked the idea of this being so easy to clean and lasting me much longer than loofah sponges I was using. I wasn't sure it would do as good a job but was pleasantly surprised. I've been using it for a couple weeks now.The material seems very durable yet so soft and the straps are sturdily attached. I have small hands and the straps fit perfectly so it stays firmly in place while I'm using it as long as I slide it on all the way. It covers my whole palm. I can't say how comfortable it would be for large hands but the material does stretch a bit. I feel very clean after I use it. The color is vibrant and true to the picture. Read more

Love these sponges/ scrubbies. High lather and lost of suds. Soft and firm nubs (don’t know what else to call them). Very clean and fresh after shower. Great exfoliating without sand paper effect.Does NOT hold soap / water like common “bath poofie”. Forks both right and left hand: very easy to switch from one hand to the other: good grip. You don’t feel like it’s going to slip off your hand.Perfect for small / large Girl/boy hands.Feels well made and don’t feel cheap or thin. Durable.Need to buy more for gifts and luggage when we travel. They need to be all over in every bathroom. Very pleased. Read more

I wanted a clean scrubber that I wouldn’t have to worry about mold build up and that I could clean instead of throwing out. I used wash cloths for a while, then rough exfoliating gloves, and now I’ve finally found the best scrubber. All the positive reviews on this are true. I was worried that it wouldn’t scrub my face and body enough and that dead skin would build up but my skin feels smoother than ever! It’s soft enough that I can use on my sensitive acne and eczema prone skin but it also really gets off sunscreen and face masks and soap really well. And it’s very easy to clean!I have very tiny hands and this sometimes slips off my hand but it’s still easy to use. For everyone else with normal to large hands this will be perfect and it’s soft and stretchy so it will fit everyone.I recommend getting a water proof command hook to hang in the shower or by the sink.

Update (February 2020): I've had this for just over a year now and it's still holding up!! One of the finger loops has had a small tear in the corner for about two months, but otherwise it is still going strong. I will absolutely be repurchasing this one when my current one is finally ready to be replaced!I used to use a regular loofah that I had to replace every two months when it would start to unravel. This is SO much better. I shopped around for a bit and ended up getting this one, its perfect. I've had it for about 4 months and the little finger straps haven't snapped or torn, and the scrubbing nubs are still all together as well. I feel like this is so much more sanitary than a loofah that holds moisture and has to be replaced. Definitely recommend! Read more

I do like this product. Especially that it drys quickly and won't mold. It feels very good while using it, gentle yet exfoliates. The only part I find a bit challenging is keeping it on my hand while using it. It gets slippery when soapy and wet. I do use the back piece to slide my hand in but sometimes my hand slides out of it. I look forward to using it in the shower as is a nice massage. Soft enough to use on my face and around my eyes but still a good scrub. Read more

much betteer quality than expected. it is rubbery and bendy. the bristles are short and their thickness doesnt vary much between the different stripes of bristles. but it fits my hand well, and its so much better than a washcloth and/loofah. i wanted something to dry fast so it wouldnt hold bacteria and be easy to hold soap to spread around my body. great item!

I gave this to my kids to use in the bath instead of synthetic loofas which need constant replacing.It feels so nice! It’s gentler, holds soap better than a synthetic loofa and also will last a lot longer. It fits their hands and my hands perfectly thanks to the grips. Works all over the body and leaves all of our skin feeling smooth and fresh.I would suggest moisturizer right after you shower as this really does do a good job of exfoliating and can leave the skin feeling a little dry.

I've only used this a handful times so far with softsoap exfoliating cococa butter body wash and have absolutely noticed a difference. Skin feels much softer and smoother. Was skeptical but really glad I tried it and would buy again. Read more

I love this thing! My face has never been cleaner or softer. I was worried that would be to small for my large male hands, but it fits perfectly. Also, I use way less liquid soap. On a washcloth I’d use at least 1 or 2 pumps but with this, I use half a pump. I’m definitely buying more. Read more

Really like this brush! I have super sensitive skin and I was looking for an alternative to plastic loofas which can be polluting.This brush doesn’t irritate my skin at all while deep cleansing at the same time! It fit super nicely in my hand and does not slip up during washing! I also find that I don’t need to use as much soap to create a lather that other washing tools! 10/10 would recommend! Read more

For years I used a mesh shower pouf and decided to give this a try. I didn't like it at first. Seemed awkward to use but after using it for several months I can say my skin loves it. It has never felt so silky and smooth!Worth the extra "hassle" :-) Read more
