2025 Dec, product turns to mush after one use. How many microplastics are getting on my dishes?
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

To thin and fall apart!
on February 24, 2025
Posted by: Unhappy camper

These used to be great and now they made them thinner and they fall apart very quickly. All companies seem to think consumers will be okay with smaller sizes for all products as a way of making you feel like you are not paying more. I would rather pay more for the thicker ones.

What happened??
on January 30, 2024
Posted by: Jazzy
from New Jersey
I have been using the Scotch Brite Non-Scratch sponges for years. I purchased a six pack of Scotch Brite Zero Scratch scrub sponges - 3X Quicker & Stronger about a month ago and the first one I used started falling apart within 2 days of use, sponges separating and falling off. I thought it was a fluke, so I got another one from the pack of 6 and it did the same thing and so did the third. What happened to this product. I am very disappointed.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I sent a complaint about these sponges (made in Canada). You replaced them and the new sponges are wonderful

Scrub Side Doesn't last long
on January 14, 2020

These used to last so much longer. Now the scrub side falls apart quickly. Has the construction or contents changed?
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Scrub Material separates from the sponge
on September 9, 2017
Posted by: carl287
from Winter Haven, FL, United States
I have always used this product. However, I purchased a large package of these sponges, UPC Code 2120000183 and the dark blue scrub material soon separates from the light blue sponge. What is the problem? I am 81 years old and have used these sponges for years.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Horrible!
on April 19, 2016

from Southern California
These sponges STINK after minimal usage! We have been purchasing this brand for years, but something has been changed in the material that is used. It is so bad that the minute you enter the kitchen you can smell the odor across the room! We will be looking for another brand.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
