It's very sad when you replace great product that your customers appreciated for years with something so inferior, it's not just waste of my money it's bad for environment too, because after a week this sponge has to be thrown away!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

This review is for the version of the sponge described on this web page: the one that has a rectangular shape (not the S-Wave version, where each long edge has the shape of a sine wave).
This is an excellent 2-In-1 sponge. I've used these sponges for over 5 years, and I'm very happy with the design and consistent high quality. I've found the sponges handy for many types of cleaning, including cleaning: pots, pans, and dishes; counter surfaces; the inside of a self-cleaning oven (that is, for the required pre-cleaning before I use the "self-cleaning" feature); and aluminum assemblies that I fabricate for electronic projects.
I've found that if I make sure to keep the Scotch Brite side of the sponge wet, and use hot water and a bit of dishwashing liquid, I can clean surfaces such as the inside of the glass window in my oven without scratching or harming the surface.
I like the fact that this 3M sponge has a rectangular shape, instead of the S-Wave version, where each long edge has the shape of a sine wave. I've tried the 3M S-Wave sponges, and I don't like them. I believe the S-wave version is a flawed design for several reasons. (I plan to post a separate review of the S-Wave version.)
I've read a few of the negative reviews on this page, where the reviewer says that he/she purchased a package of these sponges that had poor construction quality. The reviewer said that the sponges fell apart very quickly compared to the ones in other packages that the reviewer had purchased.
I've never bought a package of these sponges that contained a poor-quality sponge. Each sponge I've used lasts a surprisingly long time. (I follow the instructions, which say to rinse out the sponge fairly often.)
I have been using this product for 20+ years. Recent purchase, very unhappy. They are hard, sponge is thin and no long square resulting in hard to hold and lack of absorbency. Cheap quality but the price keeps going up!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I have always been a scotch brite sponge fan since I first got my own apartment. The scotchbrite heavy duty sponge is my favorite of all in cleaning everything. From doing my dishes to cleaning my bathroom scotchbrite heavy will forever be my go to sponge!
I used this product on a dutch oven pot and it worked fairly well. Took more scrubbing power than I thought it should and it fell apart from the friction. The only real complaint is the price paid for 1 use.
