Reviews for "The physics behind the expansion of magical cloth when drenched"

1. Rachel - 2 stars - I was really disappointed with the "Magical cloth expands when drenched". It claims to be magical, but it didn't live up to my expectations. When I tried soaking it in water, it did expand a little bit, but nothing extraordinary. It was just like any other regular cloth. It didn't have any magical properties as advertised. I wouldn't recommend it.
2. Mark - 1 star - This product is a complete waste of money. The so-called magical cloth is nothing more than a regular piece of fabric that you can find anywhere. It didn't expand at all when I drenched it. I followed the instructions precisely, but it was a total disappointment. Don't fall for the marketing gimmick. Save your money and buy something else.
3. Sarah - 2 stars - I bought the "Magical cloth expands when drenched" thinking it would be a fun and unique addition to my collection. However, I was let down. The cloth did expand a little when soaked, but it wasn't anything extraordinary. It definitely did not have any magical properties. I would suggest looking for other options if you're looking for something truly "magical".
