I have used the heavy-duty sponge/scrubber for years but the last two times I’ve purchased the product I was very dissatisfied. I thought I probably got a bad batch the first time because the sponge actually started falling apart after the first use. Second time months later, same thing. I’m convinced the product has been “dumbed down” (for lack of a better word) to maintain a price point. I won’t be buying this product ever again.

I just love this product, always buy it for washing my dishes.... it is long lasting and easy to handle. The color reminds me of sringtime. Good value for the money. ps my husband complains if I buy any other brand so I to avoid conflict I buy this sponge. Marjorie

I am very paticular with the products I use especially when it comes to cleaning my dishes or wiping down counter tops. I am a military brat whos father used to do the white glove inspection, thus why I now have OCD...Scotch bright Heavy Duty is the ONLY sponge I will use that lasts and is durable enough for my cleaning needs.

It is so bizarre I actually bought a 6 pack of the green and yellow sponges when I used the first one and let it set until I went back a few hours later the sponge had blckish dark bluish spots all over the yellow sponge part-I thought wth did my husband use this on something greasy and grimy?? so I got another out of the pack and shortly after my first use same thing happened those icky looking spots came back on the new sponge...What the heck is going on??

The only sponges I will use in my kitchen is the Scotch Brite Heavy Duty. My family loves them i even have my sponges stollen by my hubby for him to use in the Garage LOVE LOVE LOVE Scotch Brite They get the job done for a wonderful price and a great value.

I find this scrub sponge very useful to all of my heavy duty cleaning it does the work for me everytime. There strong especially with my pots and pans. scrubbing my sink and kitchen counter I really recommend this for all Mom who seeking for good quality cleaning products. Thanks Scotch Brite for making such wonderful products!!!!!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I like to cook sunday dinners and i use all of my pots and pans ,and these heavy duty scrubbing sponges work amazing on getting them all nice and clean in less time. I have used other brands and it took longer and more elbow grease.

After buying the cheaper options for sponges, I saw that I would have to buy them every week. So I upgraded to the Scotch-Brite and realized that they lasted longer. So now I pay the extra money for longer lasting sponges that will save me more money in the long run. Def. recommended!

Please note the last review of this product was in 2012. There must have been a change in the way this product's produced since then. I have been using these sponges for a long time, but recently, EVERY sponge I have bought like this gets the worst mildew smell almost instantly. After only one use the sponge becomes so mildewy you must replace. I know others that use this type and report the same issue! For a product that has been great for so long, this is a huge disappointment. I would buy another brand.

Seems that 3M wanted to save money so they reduce the quality, reduce the thickness and sell at the same price. Have been bought these for 10 years and see a huge difference with the new batch that doesn't last couple of days compare to the previous version. Hundred and hundred of negative comments on the website and still no change, that's horrible, please correct that asap
