It serves it’s purpose but…

I like it. It serves it’s purpose, but the handle is an awkward length and/or at an awkward angle. It’s also kind of hard to hold on to if your hand isn’t completely dry.

Pros
  • I can now reach my feet
Cons
  • The applicator may not work well for applying lotion to awkward areas, such as the shoulders or neck

I can now spread lotion on my back.

This is a great item for someone who lives alone and has no one to help with spreading lotion on your back. The surface of the applicator is easy to clean.

Pros
  • he could never reach his lower legs and to apply lotion ...thank you
Cons
  • The product may not be sturdy enough for use on rough or calloused skin

Easy to clean in my review

I was using this to apply a topical to my back and the topicals is a slight yellow color so when I finished I was upset that it would stain but it did not. I rinsed it with warm water and it went back to its pure white color.

Pros
  • I use it to apply lotion to my back
Cons
  • The sponge may not absorb lotion effectively, leading to a waste of product

Works well, could be a bit more curved

Very lightweight, could use a little more curve so more pressure can be applied, but overall works very well. Thanks for attention.

Pros
  • Makes Applying Lotion On Your Back A Breeze – The MainBasics Back Lotion Applicator makes it easy to evenly apply lotion, cream, or self-tanner all over your body, without having to contort your arms or ask for help.
Cons
  • The long handle may make the product difficult to use for those with limited dexterity

A great personal tool

I used to buy these at Bed Bath & Beyond, but was glad to see them offered on Best Buy. I use one regularly, especially during the dry skin winter months, to apply a moisturizing lotion to my back. So easy to put some lotion on the soft pad and rub it around on your back. Helpful to have the two slants. To wash it, I run it under very hot water for about a minute and then wipe dry with a paper towel. Occasionally wipe with a disinfectant wipe.

Pros
  • Used to apply ointment on back. Works better than expected.
Cons
  • The product may be difficult to clean thoroughly, leading to bacterial or fungal growth

No more itchy back!

I think it’ll do what I bought it for. I have sensitive skin and my back is always itchy. I think it’ll work out to help put lotion or oils on my back.

Pros
  • Very well made & keeps my hands clean while applying tanning oil. Makes reaching my back very easy!
Cons
  • The sponge may not work well for exfoliating the skin

Applying creams to my back

I have arthritis with many back issues. I found this to be extremely helpful to apply ointment for pain. Just use soap and water to clean , dries pretty quick. I am so pleased I found this, it is a God send.

Pros
  • Convenient & delivers as promised!
Cons
  • Users may experience skin irritation or rash from the sponge material

Head pops off/good otherwise

It’s us great for getting the lotion to those hard to reach spots. Did have to re-glue the head to the handle after about a month.

Pros
  • Works for me
Cons
  • The product may not be eco-friendly or sustainable

It gets the job done.

It works to apply pain gel to my back, but the handle isn't ergonomically correct and much of the gel get on the stick because the pad is short.I am going to reorder the last one I had that was longer, it was easier to grip and the medicated gel stayed on the pad.

Pros
  • Easy to use & easy to clean.
Cons
  • The sponge may not hold up well to frequent washing or sanitizing

Handle too short: my feedback

I had a device similar to this one before but with a longer handle. I had spinal surgery and needed this device in order to avoid bending at the waist to apply creams and lotions.

Pros
  • No Waste – The foam rubber pad on this lotion applicator for the back has the right texture and firmness to hold and apply lotion without absorbing it.
Cons
  • The sponge may not hold its shape or texture over time, leading to an uneven application

A Bit Awkward on my review.

Applying lotion to the middle of the back is a bit awkward. You have to get the pad angled just right so that the entire surface of the pad can make contact. Maybe with practice and time, it will be easier to apply lotion to this area.

Pros
  • I love this brush!
Cons
  • Users may find the sponge difficult to clean properly

All Those Hard to Reach Placed

Seems my arms are not long enough to reach all the places that need lotion. With the MainBasics 16” lotion applicator I can reach all my dry places. The curve in the handle makes it easier to apply lotion to my back, the backs of my thighs and my feet and ankles. It is easy to wash too! I like that the lotion goes directly on the applicator then the skin. No wasted lotion inside. Good purchase!

Pros
  • I use this product to put either cream or ointment medications and lotion on my back.
Cons
  • The sponge may become damaged or deformed from frequent use

My new best friend!

So eady to use, and I'm now able to reach that sweet spot on my back that always seems to itch. Wish i would have found this sooner!

Pros
  • The product feels nice and great quality material. Highly recommended.
Cons
  • Would be nice to have one with a more flexible or pliable sponge on the end

It would be better if the handle were somewhat more curved

I got this to put lotion along a seam across my back from surgery. I put lotion on it and reached as far as I could from side to side then I reached with it down over my shoulder. The seam was between my shoulderblades. When I tried it from side to side, I couldn't get to the middle and it didn't quite sit squarely on the skin, due to the handle not being quite curved enough. It did better from reaching over my shoulders for the center of the back. The surface is a soft plastic. Easy to wash…

Pros
  • quick and fast
Cons
  • The applicator may not work well with thicker lotions or creams

My friend told me about this.

I never heard of these before. My friend told me about them. I searched Best Buy and a bunch came up. I bought this one. It looked the best for the price. I made a good choice and it works great on my itchy back because I can’t reach to put lotion on.

Pros
  • Application
Cons
  • The sponge may be prone to rot or mildew in humid environments

Perfect for my back

This product really works great on getting my body lotion on my back. I put the cream at the top and bottom and then I use the applicator to spread it in the area that I can't reach with my hands.

Pros
  • Perfect for Seniors to get to place that are almost impossible to reach.
Cons
  • The long handle may make the product awkward to use for those who are shorter or taller than average

Worth the money! best in my review

I would recommend this product. It is very useful and easy to use. I use it daily to apply moisturizer to my back after showering. It’s also great to apply sunscreen,

Pros
  • Material is perfect. Easy wash. Great item. Highly recommend
Cons
  • The product may not be suitable for those with mobility or grip issues

Reaches the hard to reach places on the ole back

In Colorado humidity at or near 10% isn't unusual. That creates some itchy skin. This sweet little tool makes lotioning up the hard to reach places in the back easier. It's still not perfect, but far better than nothing.Be sure to look in the mirror to make sure you don't have cakes of lotion that will stain or stick to your shirt.

Pros
  • Very easy to use
Cons
  • The sponge may not distribute lotion evenly, leading to patchy or uneven coverage

Simply the best: my feedback

I didn't know if they actually made such a thing until of course I looked on Best Buy. This thing is amazing. Works fine. Reaches enough.

Pros
  • Works fine. Reaches enough
Cons
  • The sponge may not provide enough pressure for users who require deep tissue massage

Simple but great for lotion

The Main Basics 16-Inch Lotion Applicator for Back is perfect for applying lotion to my back. The lotion stays on the applicator, no dripping, and applicator feels great on my back. I use it every morning. My back is not longer itchy due to dryness.

Pros
  • It serves the purpose of putting lotion on my back easily.
Cons
  • The sponge may not work well for applying self-tanner or bronzer evenly
