I went to AI to find "the best" similar sponge with a non-scratching side. This was the recommendation. It's the best sponge I've ever used for both toughness of sponge and effectiveness of grit.

Saw them reviewdd by America's Test Kitchen against all other sponges on the market. Gave them a try. Been hooked on them ever since. Clean-up easily, nothing sticks to the scrubbing side, and they go in the dishwasher. Last 3X longer than any other sponge I've ever used. Buy Them!

These O-Cedar sponges are GREAT, in the kitchen. They took a little getting used to, as they are much thicker than I was used to, but not a problem, at all.

Love these sponges! I've tried all kinds of kitchen sponges and these are great. No smell..last a long time. No scratch. When I change up I use the old ones for cleaning chicken feeders...etc.

Great value and excellent sponges! They really last & you can disinfect in dishwasher and the microwave.

buy them all the time

I bought these to be used with my nice glasses that I do not put in the dish washer along with other glass items I do not want to be scratched by the more brittle sponges I usually buy for my pots and pans, etc. They were really nice and do not scratch, soft but able to get my items clean. I know O-Cedar has a good reputation so happy I found them in bulk!

Best sponges by far of any currently on store shelves anywhere!

These are a decent replacement for the blue Scotchbrite that Sam's used to sell. I happen to change my sponge out every Sunday, but if you aren't one of those people, expect the top part to crack in several places. When they crack, they still do the job but I removed a star because the other ones don't crack. The scrubby side is safe for my non-stick pans but scrubby enough to get them clean.

See the attached picture. I have never seen a sponge that pills like that layer by layer. I've only been using this sponge for 2 months and it's shredding in my dishwater in my sink and on my dishes. I bought these sponges before and this has never happened it's just shows that you are reducing the quality and raising the price. your company should really be ashamed of what you're doing to these sponges. When I first started using these sponges they didn't do that but now the quality is down to nothing!
