While the idea of this is good, the actual product is not that great. It is made of PVC so it is easy to clean (soap and water or antibacterial cleaner). The material however also is prone to be sticky when it comes to things like hair, lint, dust, etc and given that this thing covers a wide area (palm of your hand) it tends to be hard to keep clean even if it's easy to clean.

So the first part of it was that it was sticky. Straight away it started to pick up lint and cat hair just off the bed and really there is not much of that on my bed with newly washed sheets. So okay off to wash it again which doesn't help much. Then after picking up those it tried to pick up my long hair. After getting a few strands of that caught up in it (ouch) I found that the long the hair the more it tangles in the little nubs and is more difficult to get out. So, okay I got it, no hair areas and try to keep it off the bed. Hmmm not what I wanted out of this toy.

Next, try it on the body. First, you cannot use it alone. Sticky factor again. It doesn't glide or move across the body without some kind of lubricant. Out come the water based creams and lubes (its says you can do silicone based too, but I mostly use water based). With lubricant, it slides better, but the thin consistency leaves this toy with more of a poky feeling over the body and not something smooth and nice feeling. It tickles a little but mostly feels like you got a nice little comb running over the body. Next it was a cream. Better than lube as it has a more thick consistency which tends to take away from the poky feeling more making it nicer and more massage like.

Since it washes well and feels good when trying to clean, we thought...hmmm lets try in the bathtub! Okay so while it was okay in the tub, it still tended to be more like with lube, poky. Next we tried to put soap on it and the soap was nice an slippery but once in the water (submerged) it just came right off and didn't last long.

So then off to the shower. Shower and a little soap makes this kind of fun in that it slides better and feels a little better, but still not as much fun as a regular sponge, so not worth the price of getting it when a $1.49 sponge will do the same thing.

So all in all this just sits in my drawer and maybe it might get more use if I used it to brush the cat as that seems to be what it is attracted to.
