I have am a long time user of the Heavy Duty Scotch Brite scrub sponge, yellow sponge with green scouring pad. I have always been very happy with this product. The Scotch Brite Heavy Duty Scrub Sponge has always "stepped up to the plate," (pun intended!), and performed very well, no matter what the task. In the past year, however, I have noticed that the Heavy Duty Scotch Brite Scrub Sponge dries completely overnight. This does not affect the performance in any way, shape or form. What I do find, however, is that after several, 4 or 5, occasions in which the sponge has dried out that the sponge develops a horrible odor and must be thrown away. I have tried multiple things to remedy this, including rinsing the sponge in bleach prior to putting it up for the day, and nothing seems to cure this problem. The odor returns as soon as the sponge is moistened again. The only remedy I have found is to rinse the sponge in something prior to using it for the first time each day. It is at that point that I can then continue to use the Heavy Duty Scotch Brite Scrub Sponge as normal, which for me is to use it for EVERYTHING! I love this sponge and will continue to use it. The only change that would be great if you could do it, would be to add something that would fight the odor that occurs when the sponge dries out. Other than that, the Heavy Duty Scotch Brite Scrub Sponge ROCKS!! It is the best scrub sponge out there! It is tough and lasts long, even with daily use.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is the brand I always buy. Great value for the product. Works well on a variety of messes. Like that I can reuse it, it holds up really well. I signed up to evalute products for 3M and they sent me this sponge free to review.

I have never owned a dishwasher (never wanted to) and have used these sponges for what seems like decades to wash dishes and they have never failed me. But within the last few months or longer I have noticed that they seem to be thinner and fall apart more easily. I have to replace then more frequently than usual. I have been a faithful user but now I am reconsidering my options.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product from 3M to review. These scrub sponges are the only scrubs we use in this household. They simply just work the best in removing left over food stuck to the bottom of fry pans. The sponges last a long time and do not fall apart easily. We like the idea that one side of the sponge gets rid of the stubborn stuck food and the other side wipes it clean. Thanks 3M for making meal clean up an easier chore in the kitchen.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] 3M sent me a free Scotch Brite scrub sponge to check out. It is very useful for cleaning things at a kitchen sink I'm sure, but it is also quite handy at the laundry tub we keep outside the house by the side faucet. The tub gets used a lot for all sorts of outdoor projects, from cleaning BBQ grills to putting together or cleaning flower pots, and innumerable other wash jobs too messy for doing at indoor sinks. The Scotch Brite pad, along with an assortment of brushes, works great for scrubbing tasks at the tub, and also for spring scrubbing of our aluminum patio furniture, summer maintenance of the patio table top, and even for removing stubborn bug spatter off windshields. The pad is kept with bar soap and SOS pad in a sealable old baby wipe container on the outside tub, and stays protected in there year-round, and always at the ready.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I tried the Scotch Brite heavy duty scrub spnge recently on my older stainless steel kitchen sink. As seen in the photos attached, the sunk had some staining Using the Scotch-Brite Heavy duty scrub sponge, the stains were effortlessly removed and the sink is shiney and clean. Unlike the other scrub sponges available, these are designed for heavy duty cleaning and my scratch softer surfaces.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used Scotch Heavy Duty sponges daily for doing the dishes. Nothing comes close to these when it comes to removing tough baked/cooked on food and stubborn other stains. I've tried the knock-off brands and they don't work very well at all. The sure look like they would work but that's about as far as they get. I love this product and thank you for making it. It makes my life easier.

This scrub sponge is fabulous. You have the soft side to gently clean non-stick pans and other things that scratch easily such as your oven door or microwave. The other side has a great scrubber that is very non-abrasive while getting the baked in gunk off of my pots and baking dishes. I truly would not use anything else. I use these to wash my dishes, clean my kitchen, my patio furniture and my bathroom. One srub sponge will do dishes for 2 to 3 weeks then can be used in the bathroom or on the patio so it really saves money too!

I admit I am a cleaning fanatic! Okay, I know, it is just a sponge but this sponge is really much more. I have used them all and take my word for it that the Scotch Brite is the best at cleaning everything. The heavy duty is the one I use most. It will clean up anything with minimal effort. I have even used it on rust stains, dirty tile grout, paint spills and cement stains. With Scotch Brite you will never say, "I just can't get that clean". Just try it and you too will have that Ah-Ha moment. Reesa

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We have been using the Scotch-Brite Heavy Duty scrub sponge for several months now. We bought a multiple pack and put one in the kitchen and one in the bathroom. It is amazing that all you have to do is throw them in the washer and they are as good as new. They are both "taking a lickin and they keep on cleaning." Thanks Scotch-Brite for such a great product that is awesome on the wallet!
