In regards to the wash wedge I could take it or leave it......I agree that the wash pads feel more intimate while washing, but I hate how dirt gets imbedded into the pads. As for the wedge, it lacks the suds of the mitt but cleans real easy.
Prior to discovering Adams products I use to use a wash mitt that had microfiber fingers on it (before Adams made me aware of the difference in quality of microfiber material), I found that it released dirt particals fairly easy when rinsed. I'm ashamed to admit that I've backlined my pads and wash wedge and purchased 2 wash mitts from a competitor that is made with a quality microfiber fingers like I was use too (I swear everything else in my wash routine is all Adams). This is something that I wished Adams would offer in the future.
