[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We have used these sponges "forever" on everything in our kitchen, but as I am learning more about knives and knife sharpening I am concluding: Don't use the scrub side on knives. Only use the sponge side. When I made this change now my knives are staying sharper much longer. The scrub side does scratch knives, you can see this on the scrathed sides of your knife blades. And this also means that it is abrasive enough that it will dull the edge of your knife -- even if you aren't trying to dull your knife. So knifes equals sponge side only please! Clean up you knives before food dries on, but if it does, just soak your knives in water until the food softens up again.

I have used these for years but the last batch I bought fall apart very quickly. The stiff scrubber becomes detached from the sponge within a few uses. Attached is a pic of a sponge I opened last week. I use these to wash dishes, no crazy heavy use. I am going to find a new brand, these are not what they used to be.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I volunteer to evaluate products for 3M and the company recently sent me a free sample Scotch-Brite Non Scratch Sponge. I must admit that I was hesitant to try out this product. I spend lots of money on my non-stick cookware and treat it with kit gloves. I got the sponge wet initially and then scrubbed spots on my arms and hands to be sure it was soft enough not to damage cookware but strong enough it could still clean up messes. I am happy to report you can use this sponge on non stick pans without damageing them. I breathed a sigh of relief and continued to clean up the kitchen :)

The Non-Scratch Scrub Sponge really does the job I need it to do. I cook for people, so have an unusually large amount of dishes, pots and pans, on a daily basis. They are easy to clean up if cheese gets stuck in the fibers. Although I do change out my sponges weekly from the kitchen, they are then put to other uses around the house until they just aren't sanitary anymore. One gets used in the mudroom sink, another in the outdoor cooking area/bbq. Thanks for having such a superior product!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This works really great! Tried it on my new stainless steel sink and it didn't scratch it up. Works well on quartz counters and still gets stuck food off the dishes. Pans are safe, glassware is clear and kitchen is clean.

This is the only cleaning sponge I use and in the few times I have forgotten to buy them, I have called the husband and asked him to stop and pick it up on the way home. So over the ten years we have been married he has brought home many vatiations of my preferred sponge, which went into my collection under the sink, because I refuse to use them. But now he knows exactly what kind of cleaning sponge to buy and the collection under my sink is getting smaller beacause he uses them for washing the car.

I have been using Scotch-Brite Non-Scratch Scrub Sponges for quite some time now (I switched from the regular sponges). I use them on everything from glasses to non-stick pans and they clean wonderfully and do not scratch my stuff. I use them on the stove and refrigerator too. They are fantastic.

I always will trust The Scotch Brite Brand! I have tried others and their sponges fall apart and wear out after 2 uses and I have found out That Scotch Brite will outlast any other brands by far! I will always use the Scotch Brite Sponges & Srubbers they last longer and do the Job they are meant to do!

In the past, I have just gone into a store and picked up any sponge with an abrasive side to it. This method of shopping lead to many disappointing results and damaged counter tops, plastic bathtubs, and wall surfaces. I now make an effort to seek out "ScotchBrite" brand nonscratch abrasive sponges for my scrubbing tasks. I keep a few packages in reserve so I won't run out. Last, but not least, the sponge side holds up very well for several jobs in a row with or without a cleaning agent being used. I have used one of these sponges for as long as a month in the bathroom before it started to break down. Another area of use is the family car. The painted surface is still as brite and scratch free after eleven years of washings as it was new. I thank you for this product

I bought the non scratch scrub sponge because the recommended pads for my glass top range were expensive. I have been using the Scotch-Brite sponges for a while and am extremely pleased with both the price and the results. I use it on my non-stick pots and pans too. This sponge solves all my cleaning needs when I don't want to hurt the appliance or pots' finish and I can throw it in my dishwasher too.
