Review on Nerd Block Zombie Hand Scratcher by Carla Williams

Looks cool, but the designer obviously wasn't as concerned with functionality as with looks. The "fingers" are gently rounded, except for the "nail". Due to the shape of the "hand”, the "nails” can hardly be pressed against the back. When fully extended, the tip of the pen should be 12 inches further than the "brush" (you should get an angle of about 45 degrees between the pen and the spot you are trying to scratch). To reiterate, you must hold the handle 1' behind your neck. If you are physically able, you are probably flexible enough to scrape your entire back without using a back scraper. The end result will be you rubbing a series of small, smoothly rounded surfaces against your back. And since you're doing it behind your back, it's almost impossible to do it with any force. The equivalent of lightly stroking a scratch with your fingertip (no nail). Looks cool but not functional.
