[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been using the cheap scrub sponges for years, I thought saving 10 cents or so was great. I received a sample of the 3M- Scotch-Brite Heavy Duty Scrub Sponge. I had made some lasagna over a month ago and some of the oil from the cheeses left burned on oil on the outside of the lasagna dish. I cooked something else in the pan which was not messy. I thought maybe I'll try to get the oil marks off with this new 3M-Scotch Brite Scrub sponge. I just added a drop or two of liquid dish detergent and off they came with very little effort, some I had to scrub, but the majority was easy.

I always have Scotch-Brite heavy duty sponges on hand. I use them for dish washing, tub cleaning, washing the wheels on my vehicle and clean walls, grills and any other surface that needs cleaning. You have the soft sponge on one side and the tough pad on the other for whatever job you have to do. They hold up and last quite some time also. Great quality product!

I use these scrubbers in the bath tub. My husband has a job that leaves black oily residue and stains on my bathtub. This is the only product that can hold up to scrubbing required to take it off. Use the sponge side for the shower walls. I have tried others and they just fall apart before the job is done. I also use these for tough stains on my pots and pans. Use only the spounge side on teflon to avoid scratching. I give these a five star and would recommend them to everyone.

I have used Scotchbrite sponges for as long as I can remember,well over 20 years. My mother always used them, too. I love the soft side and scrubber side together, since I use both. They are always priced fair and they hold up well. The heavy duty are great for tough jobs, like ovens. You can scrub and scrub and they still hold up. I toss them in the dishwasher, on occasion, to rejuvinate them. I always have Scotchbrite stocked in my cabinet.

When I first bought this product it was because I have never found one that wouldn't fall apart after few to many uses. But the Scotch Brite heavy duty sponge really handled the job well. It lasted twice as long as other brands. I use sponges everyday so I need something that is durable and this is my product now. Thank You Scotch Brite!

I have used these scruber sponges for years and recently I noticed that they are coming apart. The sponge is separating away from the scruber. When it happened the first time, I thought nothing of it, but it keeps happening over and over. Maybe the company has changed their bonding material, but I want back my old scrubbers that never came apart. I have one right now I'll gladly send you so you can see it for yourself.

The number one reason I love this sponge is its durability. Other brands seem to fall apart during the first use. These sponges have handled my everyday cleaning, as well as the overall cleanup of a very filthy used home that was just purchased through foreclosure. They not only cleaned but scrubbed off paint that was dripped all over the woodwork.

I had a big party at my house. All my friends came. I served lasagna in these big glass dishes that I had inherited from my mother. After the party, the dishes were very difficult to scrub clean. The baked-on lasagna was impossible to scrub off. I left the pans to soak in water and went to the store. I purchased a few Scotch Brite Heavy Duty Scrubbing Pads. I used them on the dishes and they really worked! And worked WELL! Finally a product that does what it CLAIMS to do! I am very pleased with Scotch Brite Heavy Duty Scrubbing Pads and will be buying them in the future for all my scrubbing needs!

I can't live without a kitchen sponge. I've tried them all over the past several decades and I always come back to Scotch-Brite. Or I should say, I rarely try another, because to do so is a waste of money and a huge disappointment in taking care of the sink-loads. Scotch-Brite holds up, lasts long and is top quality. It gets the job done, period, and that's all I care about. I don't want to spend any more time with dirty dishes than I need to. Scotch-Brite gets me out of the kitchen fast -- and that's reason enough to stick with it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This sponge is the most long-lasting sponge I have ever used. Can you wear these out? I use these in the kitchen and then when they get too old/dirty to use on the dishes, I use them outside for really dirty jobs.
