Sponge that lives up to brand expectation

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a great sponge. It is hardy and holds up to wear. It also lives up to its claim of staying odor free. I like the way it feels in my hand as I wash my dishes and that it doesn't leave my kitchen smelling like mildew.

Scratch free sponge

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the Scotch-Brite Odor Resist Non-scratch Sponges. They come 3 in one pack and the colors are attractive. The curvature of the sponges makes them easy to handle when scrubbing food from and my non-stick pans. I like how food does not get stuck in the sponge and they clean and sanitize in my dishwasher.

Durable scrub sponge multipack

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This item was received through a 3M promotion. Good to great quality multi pack of reusable sponges. One side is sponge, the other is a scratch free scrubber. Works very well on all types of plates, pans and utensils. Held up to microwave and dishwasher cleaning. Sponges held up well, but started to disintegrate after repeated cleaning/use.

Good sponge

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently had the opportunity to try out a couple of Scotch-Brite Odor Resistant Heavy Duty Sponges, generously provided by 3M for review purposes. Upon first inspection, these sponges present themselves as high-quality and well-constructed. Each sponge features two distinct sides: one is an abrasive surface designed specifically for tackling stubborn stains and scrubbing away tough grime, while the other side has the classic, soft sponge text...

Nope, not for me

My wife disliked the smell from the regular Scotchbrite sponges. These are no different but my beef is that they don't hold the soap and don't suds up. I'm using more soap and spending more time washing dishes (no dishwasher). Plus they are not flexible and feel stiff when using. Didn't you guys test this product? It's awful! Give me the old school pads.

Defective refills

I purchased the stay fresh refill for my scrubbing dishwand and it didn't last a week before the refill to fall off the dishwand.

Should NOT have been released to public

This product should be OFF THE MARKET. Someone bought it for our house and I assumed it was safe around the kitchen. First I used it on the stainless stove, and saw scratches. Then, regrettably, I used it LIGHTLY on my windshield and side windows to remove a buildup of tree gunk and some pine sap. The next day, when I went to drive the car, I saw that the windshield was completely scratched- unable to drive at night, difficult to drive daytime into sunlight. I kid you not- the scrub dots ...

Find another Sponge!

Would Not Recommend

Worst sponges I've ever used. Claims to be acceptable on non coated cookware, no where do they mention that it will scratch your stainless steel pans. My husband bought me a new stainless steel saute pan and I was naive enough to think I could trust this product. I now have circular scratches all over. This product doesn't seem appropriate for any cookware. After buying scotchbrite products for years I feel very mislead and disappointed by this!

Horrible sponges

Worst sponges ever. I just called the company and they don't want to take responsibilty. This sponge scratched up my good silverware and I had to throw out color coded knives because it took the paint off. The agent was saying that is because they are heavy duty. I have used heavy duty several times and they never destrored my dishes and utentils. How are you supposed to get your dishes clean and remove the stuck on food without heavy duty. I will never buy this brand again.

Won't buy again

It does not stay fresh and it scratches the dishes. I purchased this sponge because I really dislike the smell of an old sponge. It doesn't take long before it has a mildew smell, just like the classic yellow sponge. Honestly, the best Scotch-Brite sponge is the purple fabric covered sponge. It doesn't ever get a bad smell. You just have to be SUPER careful with how you wash cutting knives. And the fact that the scrubber side scratches stainless is also a deal breaker.

Amazing Sponge

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Absolutely amazing! Initially, I thought this is just another sponge, but boy was I surprised. I had a dark spot on my kitchen sink that had been there forever. I had given up trying to get it off. But low and behold the Scrub Dots Sponge took it off with very little effort. I even had to show my husband and he was amazed. The scrub dots do an excellent job of providing an abrasive surface that doesn't damage. They rinse easily and they ...

Scrubbing dots are great

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The heavy duty scrub dot sponges work great on stuck food. The sponges are fairly pliable so easy to grip and use. Love that they resist odors and rinse out easily as food does not stick to the sponges

REQUIRED CLEANING TOOL!

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My new sponge! I love this so much. I really only use 3 sponges around the house - one in the kitchen, one in the bath and one for all-around cleaning (baseboards, spot clean floors etc) so this as a 3 pack works out great. They are amazing at scrubbing but WARNING will scratch non-stick pans, so be careful what you use it on! For me, I tackled a horrible mess on the bottom plate of my toaster oven - garlic breadsticks overflowed onto the pla...

Amazing surface restorer.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have used the Scotch Brite Stay Fresh heavy Duty scrub dot sponges on my composite kitchen sink. The sink is about 15 years old and had become stained with coffee and tea and general use. I used the sponges with powdered cleanser and it it went from a mess to almost as new. The scrub dots worked wonders. I also used it on cast iron skillets and it restored them to as new condition.

The sponge that didn’t smell and cleaned.

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] A kitchen sponge that offers odor free results. My routine for cleaning pots/pans with stuck on food/grease/grime etc. is to soak it and to use my fingernails to scrap it off. I did the same routine with this sponge. Luckily, it didn’t take extra effort to scrape/wash of the hard to clean stuck on food.

These are nice sponges that do the job

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are good sponges. Honestly, not much different than any other sponge I've used. They don't seem to get smelly as fast as others. They are a bit thin but are holding up nicely after being used a couple weeks.

So innovative!

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love that these are a 3 pack. The fact that gunk washes off of the scrubby side is fantastic. My sponges staying fresh longer is so important to me. I received a sample in exchange for my honest review.

great

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really love this, they really clean and no matter the surface their is no scratch marks on any of them. I received this product free to try out and I will be buying in place of other products that I have used as these work the best.

Shiny cookie sheets again

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I wasn’t quite sure what I was expecting with the heavy duty scrub dots sponge, but I like it. I used it on one of my sheet pans and it certainly made it shiny again. I wouldn’t use it for nonstick surfaces as it is aggressive. Baked on oil/butter came off in a flash. Very little pressure was needed to make the pans looks like new. I also used it on my stainless steal sink with just a little dish soap, no cleanser was needed, a welcome bon...
