### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great product, integrated scrubber design needs work
*by J***W on June 20, 2020*

The cleaning gel is effective in removing dirt and other stuff from equestrian boots. The attached scrubber came off while I was cleaning boot number 5. The gel can be dispensed still, just be ready to use a boot brush for further scrubbing
