I was pleasantly surprised that the Body Brush was made with what appears to be great durability. I enjoyed using the Body Brush immensely especially on my backside. The bristles were both soft and firm enough to leave me feeling more relaxed after showering. I appreciated the nice firm brush made of wood and natural bristles. The tightly wound canvas material made it easier to keep hold of in the shower and also to hang the Body Brush for easy keeping.
