is it just me or is the descripyion deceiving DWS467-3 Drywall sanding sponge any way i though i was getting 3 sponge

Great

Amazing concept which worked beatifully. It is more than a sponge!

a little slow but very little mess to clean up

This sponge did what I expected from a sponge. It absorbs liquid and then the liquid is transferred to an object when you rub the sponge on it. Thats really all there is to it. My sponge did not have bugs living in it. It did not cause unholy magic when I rubbed it on the wall. It did not bring misfortune to my family. It did what it should.

Works as expected. Good for small jobs. Mine was to patch a 2x2 opening. The sponge stayed rigid enough to knock down the high spots in the mud. And using water with the sponge definitely sped up the smoothing process and eliminated any sanding dust. However, if this were a bigger job I don’t think it would have held up as the abrasive side started falling apart.

Works perfect.

This is the second time I have ordered one of these. Being able to soak the sponge and then use either side for removing nibs or cleaning prior to painting is very handy and makes much less of a mess than trying to achieve the same with sandpaper. The first one I used, I wore out the rough side trying to use it like sandpaper. That wont work and it isnt designed for that level of material removal. So long as you understand when it is appropriate to use, this will serve you well. A tip that I have learned is to clean the wall and paint it before trying to patch any defects in the plaster, otherwise is makes far more mess and some defects can be sorted with multiple paint applications (such as rough areas that havent been completely polished as plaster has been drying). If you follow this tip and sand plaster paint, do not oversaturate the wall because you will end up with uneven areas in the paintwork where drips have taken paint away and left valleys (the last thing you want if you have had the walls skimmed to make them level).

Not really convinced of this sponge - who worked fine for roughly 10 times and then lost bits and pieces during use.
