The best!
Date: September 24, 2009
"This little bar works wonders!!! I love cooking, especially with garlic and lotsa onions. This little bar takes away any smells on your hands pretty much instantly. I recommended this to a friend who is a make-up artist and it insures her clients don't know what she made for breakfast or dinner. Genius!"

Actually works!

"It seems like a product that would be too good to be true, but it actually works! Just make sure you get your finger tips and in between your fingers."

Cool Product!
Date: September 3, 2009
"I bought this for a friend as a wedding gift (it was on their registry). I spoke to my friend after she recived it, and she said that she registered for it just so she could see if it worked, but was really surprised at how well it worked. I'm planning to buy one for my own kitchen!"

No more stinky garlic/onion hands!
Date: July 7, 2009
"I have had one of these forever, keep it right by my kitchen sink. I cook a LOT and the smell of garlic and onions cooking is delicious, but the smell of garlic and onions on your hands is NOT. This works well with no chemicals or residue and always looks shiny and pretty enough to have out in the open."

does its job
Date: July 3, 2009
"It is meant to "rub-away" the orders, and it does. I don't like the smell of onion, garlic or fish so having something that will help eliminate the lingering smells is great. It is small, does not require a special soap or anything other the the stainless bar. It is fairly inexpensive and an one time purchase... worth the money."

Love cooking with Garlic and Onion again!
Date: June 30, 2009
"I used to hate cooking with onions, garlic and cilantro because of the smell that would linger on my hands. This bar removes those tough to remove smells in a flash! I use this bar all the time and it really helps! A great investment and worth every penny!"

Eh....
Date: June 3, 2009
"I bought it b/c the idea seemed great, but don't use it much. I forget it's by the sink. It may work, but since it's used so seldomly, I wouldn't recommend it."

Just ok
Date: May 27, 2009
"The Rub Away Bar looks really cute in the kitchen... but it isn't the greatest product. Since it's not expensive I won't return it, but I don't know if I would recommend it to anyone else."

Don't Waste Your Money
Date: May 19, 2009
"I was so excited to purchase this but then I realized you could get the same effect by rubbing your hands/fingers on a spoon or the metal of your kitchen sink. So save your $7.50 for a bag of tealights."
