The red plastic end caps could have been nicer if made of some metal but surprisingly they are very strong and not as cheap as you might have thought from the pictures. Thats the bare minimum these days I would say. My Bluetooth speaker is a pretty good size speaker and I really was not sure if this bracket would hold the speaker or not. I have fairly dry skin (live in SoCal) and I didn?t notice any improvement of the hydration of my skin after using this for weeks. Comes with a nice pouch so you don?t lose anything. I was skeptical when I ordered this product. If youre looking for a sign or a green light; you guessed it! you?re just supposed to tie it around your waist and hope for the best. Other than that bar being too close to the top shelf, it?s a great unit for the price. I hope they are replaced
