Natural Kitchen Sponge - Biodegradable Compostable Cellulose and Coconut Scrubber Sponge - Pack of 12 Eco Friendly Sponges for Dishes

I purchased these as a gift in our annual family holiday bingo party with an earth friendly theme. These look like super good sponges AND biodegradable. We all need to think about what is going into the land fills and oceans! Having said all of this, I never hesitate to update my reviews should new info seem useful. All of my reviews reflect my honest, personal experience with the reviewed item - your experience may be different. I am not influenced by any outside source. I receive/accept NO free products or discounts that are not available to all shoppers- ever. For some reason our shopper ranks are no longer visible - so, to give you a little more info about me, I am a top 50 reviewer (#30 the highest rank achieved). Those numbers used to fluctuate over time - up and down but I noticed that they stopped updating regularly - perhaps to phase them out. Its a shame because it did help you see who has been around the longest and who is a trustworthy reviewer. Ive been doing reviews for over 25 years with Amazon - nearly 6,000 reviews posted, viewed over 50,000 times, and over 24,000 likes. I pay for all my stuff, just like you do.

Am I the only one who hates those bright colored blue and yellow sponges? Whose idea was that?! Thats why I bought these originally- because they arent ugly! And I keep buying them because they work, are cheaper per sponge than the ugly ones and come in bulk so I dont have to buy them every week. Whats not to like?!

never smells, easy to rinse, holds the suds longer

These sponges last a long time and do not hold bad odors. What I have bought in the stores smell bad after a week or so. These are the best! Second time I have ordered and shared with a friend.

I am so glad there is a sustainable alternative to the blue sponges I’ve always used that is… Dare I say, better? Been using for 3 weeks now, and it doesn’t do that balling up thing that the rough side of the blue sponge does. Still going strong and doesn’t look or feel much different than when I started using it.

These sponges get the job done. Id say they work as well as traditional sponges. I just wish they were a bit cheaper.

I bought these on a recommendation from a Youtube video. What intrigued me is that she said they never get smelly and I really hate smelly sponges. And its true - they do not smell mildewy at all. Just squeeze out the excess water when you are done and let it air dry. No need to run through the dishwasher or boil. They are incredibly long lasting - Im still using the my first sponge of the package 3 months later and it isnt worn out yet. The scrubby side is nice, does a great job without damaging pots and pans. If I ever use the remaining 11 that I still have, Ill definitely buy these again! They would also make a nice housewarming gift.

I don’t know why they mentioned scent when there is no scent involved. They work great. I use them for harder spots on dishes & counters. So far so good. I’m glad they’re Earth friendly as I’m extremely eco conscious.
