On the positive side, this applicator does work in spreading lotion over your back. However, at £13.75, it is very overpriced.
The sponge is made of plastic foam about 75mm thick that is glued to the hard plastic pad. The information with the applicator says that this foam pad can be replaced but a) it isn't going to be easy to remove completely and b) I think each replacement pad cost about £3. If I need to replace it, I will just cut a piece of foam to size and glue it on - I'll probably have some suitable foam from packaging somewhere in the house.
The foam pad is 6cm from top to bottom and 5cm at the widest point. It was smaller than I expected but I've seen reviews of larger pads that say they aren't very manoeuvrable.
The applicator handle is angled and that works well and the length (about 30cm excluding the pad) is enough. However the handle is ridged and I find it a little uncomfortable to hold. I really can't see the point of these...
