Amazon Basics Heavy Duty Sponges, 6 Count

Works like you think it aould, a little harder, which I like.

This is just as good as the known branded version and much less expensive! Will buy over and over again.

They dont hold up at all like 3M version does. Its not bad for money but youll replace more often.

Last long would buy it again

No complaints.

I dispose of sponges frequently, so having a few on hand was really nice. Inexpensive but did the job. Will reorder soon.

These sponges impressed me right away, as most sponges of this type (blue non-scratch) are very stiff and firm for the first week you start using them, ungainly and difficult to work with around tight corners, inside cups etc. These sponges had a soft broken-in feel that made them usable right away, and still very solid feeling, and they stay somewhat soft when dry. Ever since Dawn came out with their wedge sponges, I liked the slight taper, so every sponge Ive bought since (10 years?) gets about a 1/2 of taper with a pair of scissors, it is a slight angle cut, but surprisingly adds a lot of comfort to the hand, and a bit more usability washing glasses and cups (try it yourself!). Time will tell if this initial softness will add or detract from long term durability, though I probably do more damage myself to my sponges cleaning knives than from general use. I will definitely be buying more with this price and performance! Follow-up: After about a month my first sponge started showing signs of wear and separation around the edges, but only around the edges, still stayed strong until about mid-May, that is about 2 months of daily use, and still was usable until I swapped it out for a new one, and again I was impressed with how the new one was ready to go right away, not stiff like almost every other sponge I tried, I absolutely love these, never had sponges work so well and be as durable.

Only used one for a few days and it looks like its on it last leg. I use this on non stick pans and dishware so it is not like its doing anything heavy duty. Its still alright for the price.

Use them to scrub tough stuck on food from pots and pans

Great for washing dishes and ect.
