Black Wolf Vibrating Face and Body Brush

This thing was not what I expected at all. I do like the idea of the device, but several issues make it very impractical. First, the design of the scrubber itself. It feels very cheap - like a big hunk of unwieldy plastic. It has no contours, no flexibility; and with the silicon bristles being so short and soft, it feels like a hunk of plastic is exactly what you are "scrubbing" with. It's as if the bristles aren't even there. Also, the raised part on the back that you are supposed to slide between your fingers is placed very counterintuitively in the exact center of the scrubber, forcing you to hold it in a sort of Star Trek "Peace Be With You" grip. This would be okay I suppose, but it is so wide and awkwardly placed that it feels both uncomfortable and insecure - like it's going to slip out from between your fingers the entire time you are trying to use it. As for the "sonic" aspect of the scrubber - it is utterly useless. The only place you feel the vibrations is in your hand, no matter the setting. This is especially problematic since you already must be holding the device in a death grip to keep from dropping it, as I mentioned above. That reminds me, you DO NOT want to drop this thing on your foot - a fact that makes it's lack of ergonomics even more troubling. Anyway, there is no "massage" or "pulse" feeling transferred to your body from the device. It just feels like trying to wash while your hand is numb - that's the best way I can describe it. It's very weird and ineffective. Lastly, the handle. It seems okay at first. Until you try to use it for your back. Then it becomes apparent that it, too, is poorly designed. It has no curve to it at all, so trying to reach over your shoulder to get to your upper back takes some flexibility. It works okay I suppose if you go from the bottom up, but it still proves difficult due to the less-than-ergonomic design. Besides all of that, the biggest issue with the handle is that it feels, like the rest of the device, so cheaply made. It feels as though it is going to break at any moment - especially with it fully extended. This is especially worrisome since the silicon bristles are so short and soft so it feels as though you need to push down hard to even feel that you are getting anything accomplished. All in all, I regret buying this device, and I am disappointed in myself for buying into the hype surrounding it. Do yourself a favor - save your money. Buy a loufa or shower ball thing - hell, just use your hands. Anything would be more effective (and way cheaper) than this thing.
