the other and star reviews are legit [SEP] the other and star reviews are legit despite the price i finally decided to give it a try only used it twice but have decided to trash my old back brush it is that good the soap pocket works surprisingly well the material is on the coarse side which is what i was hoping for if used with a softer soap like dove it takes the edge off the coarseness at first i agreed with the folks saying it needs a loop to allow it to be stored on a hook but it is likely any added loop would eventually fail if one mistakenly put their full weight on it storing it on a shower tub shelf or over the shower head works and seems to drain quickly the long is the way to go unless you are particularly short
