I have been using these sponges for years, and been satisfied with them. However the most recent package that I purchased all fall apart after only used to a few days. The scrub layer comes off from the sponge, and they are not very easy to use. I went to a friend's house and saw her sponge in the same condition. She also complained that they were falling apart after using for a short period of time.

I love the no scratch sponges & have been using them on my nice Teflon pans for over 2 years. I was afraid at first as I only used dishcloths & regular sponges previously. It took a lot more scrubbing on my part without a scratch pad to get cooked on grime off my pans. I have no scratches in my pans that were caused by these sponges & continually tell people about them if they're worried about scratching their pan sets.

Works wonders on hard to get food particles without all the efforts that other products require. Really cuts my clean up time down without having to soak things overnight. Just the right product for the jobs that need a touch of hard while still being non scratch. I keep at least 6 in the house at all times, kitchen, bathroom, utility room, etc. Wouldn't be without them.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was given this as a free sample from 3M to review and I love it. It's great for cleaning out dishes that might be prone to scratching as it's less likely to scratch. If you're someone who uses sponges, you should give this one a try.

The only reason I gave 4 stars, I prefer SCOTCH -BRITE'S "GREENER CLEANER, NATURAL FIBER NON-SCRATCH SCRUB SPONGE". The non scratch sponge I'm reviewing,it really does clean it ALL, pot & pans, glass, tv & computer screens,counter-tops, hand cleans floors, my *favorite use.. it picks up pet fur so...well. I,still buy them, I'm sold for life on these great tough working sponges. I'll never purchace any other type or brand. ONLY SCOTCH-BRITE WILL DO& DO THE WORK FOR YOU ! I LOVE "ALL" SCOTCH BRITE PRODUCTS THAT I'VE EVER TRIED. THANK YOU, SCOTCH-BRITE FOR THE BEST, TOP OF THE LINE,SPONGES !!!

I GIVE THIS PARTICULAR SPONGE A FIVE STAR RATING...OTHER SCOTCH-BRITE SPONGES ARE A DEFINITE 4-5 STARS BUT I PERSONALLY SEEK OUT THIS BLUE SPONGE THAT WORKS LIKE MAGIC, DOESN'T HURT YOUR HANDS OR POTS, PANS OR DISHES, COUNTER TOPS OR WHATEVER. BEFORE I THROW THEM AWAY, I CLEAN ALL MY FLOWER POTS AS THEY ALSO GET DIRTY. KUDOS TO SCOTCH-BRITE

I've been using these sponges for years and like other reviewers have found that the last pack I bought has an inferior sponge material. It is thinner and has more air holes making it no good for absorption and things like wiping up the counter. I can clearly see the difference in the sponges they used to make (of which I still have a few) and the ones now. I'll be looking for a new brand unless 3M corrects this.

I love this sponge. It saves on paper towels (which often times contain bleach/dioxines) which saves me money and helps save the planet. I use natural cleansers so it only makes sense to use a natural sponge. And it works really good too. And it's a very cool color so people ask about it, when I tell them it's natural and made by Scotch-Brite, they have to go get one and try it. Thanks for another truly great product.

I love the non-scratch scrub sponges. I use them all the time in the kitchen, bathrooms, & and even my vehicle. It is a product that I always have to have and the only brand I use. I've tried store brand sponges, but they do not touch scotch brand. They are a must have in my household!

I love the Scotch-Brite Non-Scratch scrub sponges. They do an excellent job of removing stuck-on food and they hold up better than other brands when I run them through the dishwasher to sanitize them. They are the only scrub sponges I keep by my sink - it is too easy to use a regular scrubber on non-stick.
