We left for the weekend and came home to our teenagers "pasta party" mess. Dried on pasta on my brand new marble counter top! Scotch Brite did a great job getting every piece off without any damage to my counter tops, now damage to my teenagers ... that is a different story!

This is the new easier to handle shape. I love the fact that I can use a sponge with a scrub surface for the outside of certain pots and pans that have burned on grease and it comes off. Also, this sponge can be used on casseroles and other cooking items without worry of scratching the surface.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The heavy duty sponges really work well. They clean the dishes and pots, including the gunk that sometimes gets stuck, like egg residue from breakfast. But without scratches. Plus once rinsed, the food residue doesn't stick to the sponge. I usually change sponges on teh first of the month and they (usually) last the entire month. I then use them for cleaning other things until they wear out. I can toss them in the washing machine and dryer and they still hold up. The only drawback is that the knives sometimes will cut a corner or two from the sponge. Once that happens, the sponge doesn't hold up. But otherwise, it is the only sponge I buy.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We use these regularly to clean our dishes, however the last package we purchased, when opened the sponges are damp and there is a strong chemical smell coming from the sponge. The package did not appear to be opened and we have never experienced this before.

scotch-brite cleaning sponges have always effectively cleaned my counter tops, sinks,bathrooms, tile,etc...etc... i love them. they work great in tough jobs places that havent been cleaned in years, like underneath large appliances. extremely effective when moving,and the prices are always reasonable.i also buy them for my construction worker husband to take to work.

I love the heavy-duty scrubber sponge! At first I wasn't sure this weird rubbery green thing was really going to clean my nasty pots and pans - but it did, and boy did it! I've used my sponge on everything from pots with burned-on rice to mud-encrusted sneakers and it always gets the job done. The sponge fits my hand nicely, and it doesn't shed little "bits" like other sponges I've used. I'm definitely a sponge convert and I will continue to use this sponge on all the nasty, crusty messes that come my way!

ever since i can remember, my mom has always used scotch brite heavy duty sponges. it's a product that i have used all my life and now i have my children using it too. it's a quality product that delivers exceptional results each & every time it is used!!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have bought and used a lot of different types and brands of scrubbing sponges, and Scotch-Brite Heavy Duty is definitely the best. It scrubs out pots and pans well (even if burnt), and the scouring part of the pad lasts. I have had some other brands that fell apart almost immediately. Easy to grip, and almost makes clean-up fun!

These have been our "go to" sponges for many, many years. Just bought another package at the local market this week. Sponge depth has decreased by 30-40% Wazzup? Why screw up a perfectly good product that has a loyal following? I'll be moving to something else.

I switched from using dishcloths to these scrub sponges years ago and what a difference! My stainless steel pots and pans still look new thanks to Scotch-Brite. I have wasted money trying other brands of green-backed sponges that just don't measure up.
