Tips
The sponge on this tool is NOT replaceable, and many reviews say that the sponge detaches from the handle with exessive pressure or use.
Reviews also report that the handle does not bend as easily as advertised and does not hold it’s shape very well.
Make sure to read reviews when deciding on a tool, but also remember that reviews are very subjective and a tool may work really well for one person and poorly for another.
