in regards to the heavy duty sponges I prefer to use the scrubber side, it is amazing how quickly I can get my dishes, pots and pans and even the stovetop clean with out using too much "elbow grease"! I will always buy this product to do the never ending dishes. The teen in the house also thinks it does a very good job too!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] With 100% recycled scrubbing fibers, these heavy-duty 2-sided sponges are for the tough jobs where possible scratching isn't an issue. Worked fairly well on underside of enamel pot with accidentally cooked-on grease, but only after soaking. This 3-pack needs reclosable packaging because once you open it, the yellow cellulose sides of the other sponges start to dry out.

Hi All! I have been using Scotch brite heavy duty scrub sponge for cleaning my stainless steel utensils. It is a very great product. It cleans all greasy substances and make the vessels shine. But we have to keep changing the scrub sponge once a month according to our daily use. I love this product. My Mom, sisters everybody likes this scrub sponge. It is a "must have" in everyone's house.

What have you done with my sponge? I have used this sponge for years every day and would have easily given it 5 stars but now it seems there has been a change. It is about half the thickness as it used to be and is now pretty much worthless. Please bring back the old style quickly.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this free product from 3m to evaluate. I have never used sponges to wash dishes with before, but this worked so well that I will from now on. It just cuts right through the grime and grease toske cleaning a lot easier.

I have been using Scoth-Brite heavy duty sponges for many, many years. I tried other cheaper ones, they fall apart, tear or leave sponge parts on my dishes. I can trust Scotch-Brite sponges for all my cleaning. I keep one in each bathroom, use on stubborn shower doors mold, sink stains, hard water marks...it just seems so much easier when I use a scotch-Brite heavy duty sponge to clean with. In the kitchen, I use on non-stick pots, not a problem, it does not scratch them...my glass top stove, removes the stains, boil-overs, easy as pie.Stainless Steel sinks, works great...no spill is a match for Scotch-Brite heavy duty sponges. Even in my stove, I can use a very moist Scotch-Brite spopnge and get those hard to remove baked on and stuck on foods off, in minimal time. I have used them on outdoor furniture, plastic chairs and tables, charcoal grills, on the car to get off love bugs...I can't think of too many ways I do not use Scotch-Brite heavy duty sponges. I have even used one on my foot when I could not get the stuck on tape off from a bandage...LOL. So, they WORK, you just have to use alittle elbow grease on somethings, LOL.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this 3M Scotch-Brite Heavy Duty Scrub Sponge free from 3M to test out and was really happy with how the scrubby part held up. It lasted so long that I was able to use it for a decent while for other household cleaning after having used it for a while for dishes. The sponge also stayed smelling normal for quite a while as well, which is super important in my book. My only "somewhat negative" for this Heavy Duty Scrub sponge is that you should probably stick to using it for heavy duty type stuff, as it is super scrubby. I tried using the regular side to wash some plastic dishes and there was quite a bit of scratching that occurred. This could be because I'm somewhat clumsy, but I thought it worth mentioning. Overall, this sponge lasted a long time and was really good at scrubbing tough stains/messes with minimal added effort.

This is the second time that we have gotten these pads and they started to fall apart. The first time the sponges fell apart in one to uses. This time the green pads are falling away from the sponges after one use. Not going to get them again, W always had good luck with them in the past but not any more, sorry that we threw the box that they came in away as we do not have the id code on them.

These sponges are my absolute favorite brand. I'm a heavy cleaner, as I use sponges for not only cleaning dishes but also for kitchen cleaning (floor, counter, stove). I only buy sponges that have the spongy side AND the hard, bristly side (for tough stuck on food). The Scotch Brite brand sponges typically last longer and can endure more wear than other sponges I have used. Regular sponges without the hard bristly side usually fall apart within a couple of weeks, so those I can't even use. O-Cel-O sponges, another 3M brand, are weak by comparison -- the bristly side falls off after a limited amount of uses, rendering the sponge useless. Niagara sponges, yet another 3M brand, are about the same quality as Scotch Brite, so I like those too. My only complaint is that I wish Scotch Brite sponges were cheaper but it's nice that I can buy a two-pack of sponges and have them last for several months.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is the only product available which I can successfully get my daughter and son-in-laws pizza pan clean. I have tried many products, although, Scotch=Brite Heavy duty scrub sponge is the only one able to complete the job and make the pizza pan look new again. Thanks!!
