I got my egg from the China Mall at a much more reasonable price and it works exactly the same. The silicon really cleans and dries quickly after use and it has all the different sizes for different brushes. Does not work great for sponges (I recommend your hands and soap and then microwaving the sponge after to kill all the germs). You can easily make a dupe for this egg though with a hot glue gun on a suitable surface. The egg has one annoyance, the sliding bit for the hands is quite small and uncomfortable, and I have small hands so I don't know how practical it is for bigger hands.
