The Exorcist Sponge; It’s Got a Mind of It’s Own!

A complete and utter disappointment. If you are going to purchase one of these, please don't waste your money. Take a dollar, hit up the dollar store, and you'll have just as good of a product with the same amount of vibrations; NONE. This product is a FAIL.
Published:
Pros

extremely useful review
When I received the sponge, I was SO excited to try it out. I really did not expect it to be a sexy experience, but more of a sensual experience as I used it to wash my body and massage me at the same time. I can tell you that it was neither sexy nor sensual. Using this product was actually more annoying then using my regular sponge from the dollar store.

The product packaging is not discreet. The word "sex" is on all sides of the box. It has photos of the sponge being used by a couple, and another photo of the female using it solo. If you can tell from the photo of the front of the box, the female actually has an angered look on her face. I truly believe that it is because she realizes the sponge doesn't work.

The directions on how to use the product are on the side of the box. They are as follows:

1. Pull back mesh folds to reveal the waterproof bullet vibe
2. Unscrew bullet vibe, remove plastic tab and screw top back into place
3. Press the black button to activate the vibrator

Seems pretty simple right?

So I opened the box, took out the sponge, and proceeded to follow the instructions for set-up.

The bullet is approximately three inches in length, and is in the very middle of the sponge. You can see both ends of the bullet in the photos below. The end that has the black button on it, unscrews and is where the 3 watch batteries are placed. The sponge comes with the 3 batteries already inside the bullet. The sponge is quite firm, so separating it to get access to the bullet is a bit of a task. Also, the screw on top of the bullet, is a bit tough. It's not so bad to do the first or second time, but as you'll find out, I had to screw and unscrew the flippin' thing MANY times. It gets extremely frustrating.

I unscrewed the bullet to remove the "plastic tab". There was a red little circle piece on top of the batteries, which is what I assumed needed to be removed. So I took it out, and screwed the top back on. After pressing the black button, nothing happened. I unscrewed the top again, checked that the batteries were in place, screwed the top back on, and still nothing. I eventually realized that there was a small piece surrounding the batteries that needed to be removed. The directions do NOT tell you this. I suppose some people would assume this, but I had no idea. I tend to follow directions exactly as I am a bit of a stickler when it comes to following directions.

After removing the piece surrounding the batteries, I screwed the top back on, and it started vibrating. How odd, I didn't even press the little black button. I tried turning it off by pressing the button, and it just kept vibrating. I had to unscrew the lid a bit to deactivate the vibrating. I wasn't sure if this was normal, so I came here to read the other reviews to see if this had happened to anyone else. As I was reading, I felt something. I picked up the sponge and it was vibrating again. What the hell?! So I unscrewed the top a bit more to ensure it wouldn't turn on by itself again. I continued reading, and low and behold, the sponge starts vibrating again. Finally I decided to keep the lid completely off until I was ready for my bath.

There was no mention of not being able to turn the product off, so I went to run a bath to try the product out. As I was running the bath, I had to screw the top back on to get to start vibrating. It wouldn't vibrate. I stood in the bathroom buck naked for about 20 minutes trying to get the product to vibrate again. Eventually, it did.

Using the product in the bath, I layered it up with soap and proceeded to wash my body. The only place I felt any sort of vibration was on the hand that was holding the sponge. I assume that's because I was holding it in the one hand for a prolonged amount of time. I tried pressing the sponge really hard onto my skin, hoping to feel some sort of vibration, but no such luck. The sponge was a bit tough, and the bullet is in the middle of it. The bullet is NOT strong enough for the user to feel anything.
Experience
(..continued)

I then attempted to try it on my cha-cha. I even separated the sponge so the bullet was completed accessible. The bullet is so weak that if you are expecting clitoral stimulation from it, think again.

I tried everything in my power to get it from a 1 star rating, to at least a 2 star. Unfortunately, this product just continued to disappoint me.

After my bath, the sponge was still vibrating since there was no way I was able to turn it off without unscrewing the top of the bullet. If you have this same problem of being unable to turn it off, do not unscrew it immediately after your bath. If you unscrew it while the sponge is still wet, you are more likely to get water dripped into the battery compartment.

As for cleaning and care for the sponge, it is the same as any other bath sponge. Ensure that you rinse off all of the soap/body wash when you are finished with it, wring out the excess water from the sponge, and let the sponge dry. Leaving the sponge wet will encourage bacteria growth, so be sure to let it dry. The ideal place to dry the sponge is outside of the bathroom because the steam in the bathroom will cause the sponge to become moist again.

To conclude, the concept of the vibrating sponge is brilliant. The product itself is not. You will get just as much pleasure from a sponge from the dollar store, if not more, because you only paid a dollar, and you don't have to deal with an exorcist sponge that works only when it wants to. Also, even when it did vibrate, you couldn't feel anything anyway.
Follow-up commentary
The sex in the shower vibrating mesh sponge has been replaced by a dollar store loofah just recently. After reviewing it, I just used it to clean my body during bathing/showering because that was all it was good for. I am still really disappointed as I had high hopes for this product, and all it did was let me down. Don't waste your time/money with this product. It doesn't get any better with time.

    Thanks for your review. Sorry to hear it sucked. I bought a glass dildo that was supposed to have an LED light in it and the light never worked. Luckily I bought it for shape and texture.
