It is great. Have been looking for 5 years for it
I use it to apply cream on my upper back.
Makes it possible to reach areas that other wise I wouldn't be able to.
The pad is a little small, you can't put as much cream on it.
great product
Put lotion on foot after surgery
Very Simple and Just Perfect!
The grip on the handle is a 'no slip' grip. That's nice. And it's not too bulky so I can apply just the right amount of lotion that I want to. And the long handle makes it so easy for me to spread the lotion onto those hard to reach places. What a helper this product is! Thank you so much!
Great product
I have severe spinal arthritis and live alone.
This product allows me to reach my whole back with my medication and not have to wait for/ask
anyone for assistance. I'm going to stay independent as long as possible and this wand allows me to maintain a little of that independence.
WORKS AS ADVERTISED
WORKS AS ADVERTISED BOUGHT A SECOND ONE
Love it!
The product is exactly what I wanted. I need to get to apply lotion to my back and it works.
Great Idea !
Can use without the pads. I take it with me on any trip. Wonderful product, especially if you live alone!
Simple and Just Right
The handle helps me to reach all of those hard to reach places. And the applicator is petite and not too bulky so that I can apply just the right amount. Just the amount that I want to. Not one drop more nor one drop less. And it comes with replacement pads already with the order which is thoughtful. Thank you for this wonderful product that has been such a big help to me!
Small but mighty
I found my first one years ago in a catalogue, and have used them since. You can re-order the pads. Lotion, Suntan lotion, medication for itch. The larger wooden ones with a big pad take up too much lotion and are hard for me to maneuver. I am ordering another after I used the first one to death.
Everyone should own one of these
great for someone who can't bend to apply lotion to their legs and feet.
Very Happy I found the Lotion Applicator
I looked all over, could not find the right product until I found this applicator in the catalog. Great, very useful.
A little dab will do ya.
It works well to spread lotion on hard to reach places of back. Unfortunately, the lotion also works to "unglue" the sponge that holds the lotion.
If you buy, buy extra sponges.
Applicator head should be larger
Product is a great idea, but needs some modifications like larger head & be a little bit stronger plastic, I once had a handle break.
Really sorry pads/sponges
Love the long stick but the pads are lousy. Just received this item last Friday and one pad was ripped by the end of that evening and another ripped two days later, so am down to my last pad after one weekend.
junk
This is a piece of junk. It's small and has an awkward plastic handle that slips around in your hand. I went to a store in town and found one twice as big with nice wooden handle and half the price.
Love this as I am able to rub lotion on my back!!!
how i use the product.

As I am alone and have no one to put lotion on my back, this applicator does a splendid job. The convenience and style are a plus. My suggestion to improve the product would be to make the sponge bigger so as to apply to a larger area.

I have used one of these for years. You don't need to bother with the pads at all. Just put the lotion on the smooth plastic paddle and apply directly to your back. Wipe and rinse clean and it is ready for next use.

I purchased this for my cousin, she is unable to apply medicated lotion to her back and lives alone so no one to help her. She said that this item realy helps her apply the lotion where needed.
Good tanning lotion applicator!
Pretty good aplicator. I bought it to apply tanning lotion but works good for body lotion also. Only problem is that the pads don't stay on the applicator too well when it gets wet to clean it. I recommend buying extra pads for it.
Good product
I use this product to apply anti-itch cream to my back.

Best for reaching my inner back areas.
I had to add some string to the handle, as it was hard for me to grasp and get a good grip on it. I filled all the grooves in the handle, then applied some tape, now it gives me the ability to grasp it better. I have had bad skin problems on my back, and I have no partner to help me with my back as to applying lotions to it, this brush gives me that ability, which helps immensely. I use every evening, about two hours before bedtime, so it can do it's thing of helping me to get my back skin soft again.

Useful for applying anti-itch stuff to poison ivy, cream to sunburned parts &c, and, especially now, quite handy for applying stuff to dry skin now that the weather is turning cooler in Penna. & the indoor heat is going on!

I love this product! I've been looking for a tool to apply lotion to the middle of my back and this works great. Yes, the pads do lift a little, but I just press it back down and it's fine. I'll take that over a dry patch in the middle of my back.

Lotion applicator
The need to use daily skin lotion on my back makes hard to reach places, impossible. This applicator allows me to reach all the areas that need daily application of lotion. This product is easy to use but lacks sturdiness so care should be taken when using it. It does the job and extra pads should be purchased. Three weeks and still using my first one but they are thin pads.

GET A NEW MANUFACTURER
I've used these pads with the applicator for many years and - WHAT HAPPENED? They used to last a long, long time but now they fall off after a couple of uses. I love this idea and it does the job of getting the lotion onto my back but the company selling them really needs to change back to the original manufacturer. This would be a really popular product if the pads lasted longer. I would recommend the product to a friend but only by also stating that the pads need to be replaced often.

i thought the pad edges were a little rough if you weren't careful when applying. have to go slowly and be careful, better to just pat and not rub, or push.

Would be a "great" product if the applicator were larger, it were a couple inches longer and if it had a better grip.

Often there are areas of your back, you simply cannot reach. I have dry skin and often these areas are very itchy. For the most part, I have used this applicator successfully.

I wish it were longer. The pads that come with it don't last long. I make little flannel hoods which I slip over the end and secure them with a rubber band. That works quite well.

The extra long arm
I liked being able to reach the middle of my back - the spot you can't reach with your arms. I don't like that after 2 -3 uses the pad no longer adheres to the handle.

Applicator not comfortable
Use product to put lotion on back. Bent head causes scratching on back, and limits areas of use.
not my favorite purchase
I found this product to small to be of use. It did not hold the lotion like I had hoped. I would not buy this again.
Not big enough to be effective
To apply lotion to my back. The head isn't big enough to cover much of an area making it "clumsy" to use.
Lotion applicator, NOT!!!!
The shape of the applicator is not ergonamically made. I could only apply lotion to the area of my back that could be reached over my shoulder. When I tried to lotion the lower back was when i discovered how bad the item was constructed. You can not apply lotion to your entire back.The handle is off putting as well. This one needs to go back to the drawing board.

Better sticking pads would be nice or proper procedure, such as, using other chemicals to help pads stick.
Lotion must be thin for the pads to be effective at all. Instructions state "any" lotions

Very disappointed in this.
I wanted to replace the lotion applicator I had previously bought from Miles Kimball that had lasted for years. This one is very cheaply made with a tiny sponge like material that sticks to the applicator and can be changed. The sponge is less than half the size of the permanent sponge-like applicator I previously had. The whole thing looks very cheap and chintzy. I am probably going to return it.

Too flimsy
Pads are "o.k.". Applicator is too flimsy to be of much use. I can't recommend it.
Nice idea, but....
Handle needs to be longer; pad needs more adhesive; pad area needs to be larger; worked better for feet; overall not worth buying.

Angle is wrong. Pad doesn't adhere. If one spec of lotion gets on edge of applicator, pad lifts and you need to toss it. Wooden spoon works better.

Very Poor Product
I use this product daily and am very disappointed. The applicator is flimsy and slips in your hand. The pad is small, wears out quickly, falls off, and does not apply lotion well. The previous version that you sold, which was cream in color, was FAR superior to this product. Please bring back the previous version!

Don't buy this product!
I have the original applicator and didn't realize that there was a new design until I ordered replacement pads and found that they no longer fit. I then ordered the new applicator and I really, really don't like it. It is very hard to hold and the handle twists around making it difficult to apply lotion. The pads don't stay in place very well, either. I am quite disappointed with this new design. Bring back the old one! I am sorry that I had recommended this item to two of my friends before I realized that it was basically a different product.

Plus having the previousOne and no longer able to buy replacement sponges I had to reinvest in the handle. [...]

Cheap, poor design
I use this product daily. I don't like this product for the following reasons:
1. The product slips in my hands during use.
2. The pads don't last. It falls off the applicator after 5-7 uses. The old product, which was beige would last up to 2 months! The pads between the two products cost the same. Feeling very "ripped-off".
Please bring back the previous version which was beige in color, had a larger application & pad, and a flat handle which was easier to hold onto.

Great concept not sure if I would buy again
A great concept but the round handle is too hard to hold onto and maneuver the handle is too short The pad needs to be much larger. handle needs to be more ergonomic flat with rubber gripper rather than plastic. Same design as the roll-on lotion applicator design but with replaceable pads instead of the roller balls. The one with the screw one lotion applicator with the balls breaks to easily I've purchased several we got very few uses out of each before lotion compartment would crack.
