I used to buy this product in the 21-item pack it was so good. These really WERE great sponges. Emphasis on WERE. In my recent 21-item package everyone of these sponges everyone of the sponges has disintegrated in 1-2 days of mild use. Something has changed in the fabrication process to result in an inferior product.

I love this scrub sponge!! It's great with cleaning up my stove and oven after my teenage twin girls have been cooking in the kitchen. It also helps with my stainless steel pots. I was able to get baked on cheese and tomato sauce cleaned up from my stove, oven, and baking pan with hardly any effort at all. I even have one I use in the bathroom to clear up soap scum in a snap when I clean my tub/shower. This isn't just for kitchens.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have bought this item since I arrived to USA since it is a recognized brand around the world. The sponge cleans well. However, after it has been used a couple of times, it starts to smell like rotten something and it appears some black spots around the yellow thing. It looks like zero hygiene. I clean it in the dishwasher and with clorox several times per week. Nevertheless, it starts to smell again. After using it, the hands smell awful. I have to wash them many times to take out the odor. I have talked to several people who use it and it happens the same to them. For this reason, they are using other brands. It is a shame that such a wonderful brand has in the market this bad products.

Scotch-brite sponges do a great job of scrubbing my pots and pans clean especially when I've forgotten to let them soak again overnight and they have caked on food from the night before(yuck!). The only thing I wish that could be improved is that the scrubbing pads wears out somehwat quickly thus I'm always needing to replace them and also no matter how hard you try to wring out your sponge eventually you start to get the nasty mildew smell. Hopefully one day a chemical will be added to prevent that. Otherwise, these sponges are great and I won't ever switch to any other brand for any reason.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the way I can use the scrub sponge on so many surfaces. It scrubs away stuck on food then cleans it up with the sponge side! Easy, saves me time and energy not to mention the way it saves my pots and pans.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It has been a long time since I have used your Scotch Brite scrubbers; I don't know why I got out of the habit of purchasing them! So, I was truly excited to receive them and try them all over again! What I like the best, and I missed with not using them for a while, is no matter What I am cleaning, and I'm referring to different surfaces, your Scotch Brite scrubbers don't scratch and/or leave marks!! I get it nice and soapy and away I go! It is Enjoyable to clean different surfaces and, so Quickly too!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have used regular sponges forever, and one day I happened to run out so I had my friend bring over a sponge from her house. She brought a Scotch Brite Heavy Duty Scrub Sponge and I couldn't believe the difference! I BARELY had to sit them in hot water, and everything scrubbed right off with such ease. This has made doing dishes SO much easier and less time consuming for me! This product alone has turned me into a VERY loyal Scotch Brite customer!!!

I have used Scotch-Brite Heavy Duty Scrub Sponges for many years now. Oh sure, I tried different brands. But I need a sponge that does what I ask it to do, each and every time and Scotch-Brite Heavy Duty Scrub Sponges are the only ones that perform reliably. I use them for my dishes, even my best dinnerware and glassware. They can't be beat for cleaning those pots and pans with the greasy, baked-on food. I even use them on my oven. They really make quick work of the bathroom and laundry room cleaning chores. I wouldn't have any other brand of scrub sponge.

These sponges are heavy duty. I keep one in my kitchen sink all the time. I use them to clean pots and pans or to just wash the dishes. They are great for baked on food. I also use them in my bathroom, on my grill, on my truck wheels. On everything that needs a heavy duty scrubbing. I recommend these sponges to everyone.

I use this sponge ALL the time. I love how its strong enough to get off stuck on foods with hardly any effort but most importantly never scratches my non stick cookware! I love this sponge and am anxious to try some of the new products Scotch-Brite put on the market! Thank you Scotch-Brite for making a quality product at such an affordable price.
